Low temperature (LT) is a major threat that limits growth, development, and distribution leading to plant damage and crop losses. Plants respond to cold stress through a phenomenon known as cold acclimation, which is a complex process involving changes a
Understanding and responding to the unique requirements of each plant species is key to achieving a thriving garden. From the moisture-loving orchids to the sun-basking tomatoes, each plant has its own set of preferences that, when met, lead to robust health and growth....
. Through domain deletion analyses, it has been shown that the 14-amino acid CLE motif of CLV3 is essential and sufficient to execute its role in the stem cell maintenance in vitro (Fiers et al.2006), revealing that the CLE motif functions as the peptide hormone for stem cell maintenance ...

A. officinalis has been known to be associated with an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF), Glomus intraradices, and growing in an environment without the fungus reducing its biomass37. Although AMF symbiosis is prevalent in land plants, A. officinalis is among the best-responding plants to AMF ...
speakers to warn crops of pest threats, offering an eco-friendly alternative to chemical pesticides.Further studies by ecologist Monic a Gagliano reveal that plants,like pe a plants, can "hear"water through sound, with roots responding to water-related vibrations even when the water is ...
The entire process is a delicate dance between the sprout and its surroundings, a constant negotiation for survival and growth. The sprout isn't just passively absorbing; it's actively adapting, responding to the cues from its environment, constantly fine-tuning its growth str...
There is another source of variation among experiments that is often not taken into account when comparing data. Using the example of light again, two experiments may show different phenotypic responses to light intensity (e.g. a strong positive effect vs. no effect, Fig.1a). Where plant biol...
However, recent accumulating evidence strongly support that the roots are also capable of sensing and responding to light which can trigger root morphogenic dynamics and developmental changes, which mediate primary root growth, lateral root formation, nutrient uptake, and greening process [1,2,3]. ...
