By adding a whole new biochemical pathway to a plant species, researchers were able to make a plant that grew much bigger, ...

A team in Taiwan has engineered a new way for plants to absorb and use carbon dioxide, potentially reshaping the fight against climate change. By inserting an extra biochemical cycle into a model ...

Typically, plants rely on the Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle to convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to usable organic matter for growth. Although this cycle is the main pathway for carbon ...

A research team demonstrates that unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with multispectral sensors can rapidly and accurately estimate two key photosynthetic traits—the maximum carboxylation rate ...
