A gene that regulates the development of roots in vascular plants is also involved in the organ development of liverworts—land plants so old they don't even have proper roots. The Kobe University ...

The role of calcium is well understood as a function of signaling between plants and symbiotic fungi that assist nitrogen fixation and phosphate uptake. Now a new study by researchers at the John ...

Plants acquire nitrogen predominantly as nitrate or ammonium, and the dynamic regulation of root growth to optimise nitrogen foraging is central to agricultural productivity and environmental ...

Try a simple and effective plant propagation method that encourages faster root development using natural techniques and ...
