We investigated germinable soil seed banks and the ability of seeds to germinate after different durations of submersion in water for non‐native ravennagrass (Saccharum ravennae), an emerging but poorly understood invader of riparian habitats in the American Southwest, including along the Lake ...
The state-of-the-art coverage on a wide range of plant genomics and biotechnology topics will be of great interest to post-graduate students and researchers, including the employees of seed and biotechnology companies, and to instructors in the fields of plant genetics, breeding and biotechnology....
triglyceride-containing biomass include canola,sunflower, castor-oil plant, and other plants with seed from which oils can be obtained. Othertriglyceridesources are macro- and micro-algae. Depending on the kind of biomass, its oil can contain either small or high proportion of free fatty acids....
Native & naturalized seeds & live plant materials for restoration, reclamation, conservation, wildlife & pollinator habitat, and renewable biomass energy.
Limited seed supply Challengesexist inseed supplyrelated to the relatively low demand by farmers, lack of registered varieties, insufficient seed multiplication and distribution channels. These challenges are especially relevant for minor legume crops, such as lupins, chickpea and lentil and in regions ...
Happy Plant Protein, a spinout from VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, has raised €1.8 million in a pre-seed funding round led by Nordic Foodtech VC. The round also saw participation from Butterfly Ventures and Business Finland via a grant. The funding will be used to further develo...
Plant hormonesare essential regulators of plant development beginning with seed germination and culminating in whole-plant senescence. Until recently it was generally believed that the five classes of compounds comprising abscisic acid, auxin, cytokinins, ethylene, and gibberellins could account for most ...
People are being encouraged to consume more plant-based foods to reduce the negative impacts of the modern food supply on human and global health. The food industry is therefore creating a new generation of plant-based products to meet this demand, inclu
