🥦Let's talk #Brassicas! Self-incompatibility and long #growth cycles make breeding a long, tedious process, but a new in vivo #haploid #seed induction method that does not require #tissue culture may change all that!

Mechanism of Sugar Signaling in Plants

Scientists have discovered how a sugar-sensing protein, KIN10, controls plant growth and oil production by acting as a molecular switch. When sugar levels are high, KIN10 activates pathways for growth and oil production. Understanding this mechanism could help engineer plants for increased oil production, potentially benefiting biofuel development.

Wounded plants: how they coordinate their healing

In a new study, scientists unraveled the mystery behind how wounded plants coordinate their healing. By investigating the role of the hormone Auxin and pressure changes, they discovered the intricate cellular mechanisms guiding plant regeneration. This understanding sheds light on how plants adapt and survive in challenging environments.
