The COVID-19 pandemic has made life hard for a lot of researchers. For one, they could not be physically in the lab and so many turned into computational approaches to further their research. This was ...
Over billions of years, plants mastered the art of photosynthesis, but some took it a step further. While most crops like rice still rely on the older, less efficient C3 process, others like corn and ...
In C4 plants of the NADP-malic enzyme type, an abundant, mesophyll cell-localized NADP-malate dehydrogenase (MDH) acts to convert oxaloacetate, the initial product of carbon fixation, to malate before ...
Plants using C4 photosynthesis grow 20-100 percent quicker than more common C3 plants by altering the shape, size and structure of their leaves and roots, according to a new study. Plants using C4 ...
Hydrogen and carbon isotope ratios of cellulose nitrate and oxygen isotope ratios of cellulose from C3, C4, and Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants were determined for plants growing within a ...
The C4-photosynthetic carbon cycle is an elaborated addition to the classical C3-photosynthetic pathway, which improves solar conversion efficiency. The key enzyme in this pathway, phosphoenolpyruvate ...
A carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere could strip important food crops of their nutrients, a new study suggests. Wheat, rice, barley and certain legumes like soybeans are classified as C3 plants, which ...
SAN DIEGO — Plants thrive on photosynthesis, which is essential to their growth and development. New research is showing how an alternative form of photosynthesis could produce more productive crops ...
Plants have become an unlikely subject of political debate. Many projections suggest that burning fossil fuels and the resulting climate change will make it harder to grow enough food for everyone in ...
