IT is rare, even in these days of specialized studies, that circumstances permit an investigator to present a 'first book' on pioneer work in any subject. This opportunity has come to Dr.

Plant hormones play a major role in plant growth ... identified almost exclusively through Arabidopsis thaliana genetics. Although the details of the precise mechanisms of signaling are just ...

Our plant science program involves course work in plant molecular biology, plant breeding, plant pathology, plant tissue culture, horticulture, crop science, plant anatomy and/or plant physiology.

The research in the program elucidates the basic principles of cell and organelle dynamics, and molecular pathways that regulate organogenesis in vertebrate, invertebrate and plant model systems. The ...

The purpose of this practical is to investigate the effect of a range of concentrations of salt or sugar solutions on the mass of plant tissue. Make sure that the potato is placed on a ceramic ...

In practice, the sensor’s microneedles would penetrate the plant tissue and detect hydrogen peroxide without the need to gather leaf sap extractions. The microneedle surface is coated with a ...

Using advanced imaging methods, they quantified cellular growth in all tissue layers of the entire complex organ in 3D. It's a remarkable feat: never before has any plant and animal system been ...

The system can detect gene activity at different scales, from individual cells to the tissue level across the entire plant, including leaves, roots, flowers and stems. "It's helpful to researchers ...

Bacterial galls are the same color as the wood or bark with soft woody tissue inside ... can be sent to the plant clinic at Cornell for a fee. See their website for details at https ...
