A biological process in plants, thought to be useless and even wasteful, has significant benefits and should not be engineered out -- particularly in the face of looming climate change, says a team of ...

Plants and trees may seem pretty passive, but behind the scenes, their cells are working hard to put on a magic show. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we’ll explore how the processes of ...

All plants and animals respire, releasing energy from food. At the cellular level, this process occurs in the mitochondria. But there are differences at the molecular level between how plants and ...

Scientists first to visualize live plant respiration with advanced imaging. Real-time gas exchange through stomata was recorded at cellular-level detail. Breakthrough reveals plant adaptation, aiding ...

Sleeping under a tree may seem peaceful, but it can pose health risks at night. While trees release oxygen during the day, ...

Plant photosynthesis and respiration are the largest carbon fluxes between the terrestrial biosphere and the atmosphere 1, and their parameterizations represent large sources of uncertainty in ...
