New research has shed light on how plants precisely control their growth and development, revealing that seemingly similar molecular components fulfill surprisingly different jobs.

The study adds to evidence challenging the dominance of ‘natural selection’ as the sole adaptive force in evolution.

New research from the Sainsbury Laboratory at the University of Cambridge has shed light on how plants precisely control ...

Now, some scientists are wondering whether it’s possible to produce food more efficiently by skipping photosynthesis altogether, and growing plants in the dark. The idea sounds as science ...

Scientists say the tundra’s permafrost stores a third of the planet’s carbon. But if the plants on the surface change, that could alter the permafrost, changing how much carbon is being stored. Isla ...
