The summit of roots of various plant species may be occupied by a single, rapidly proliferating tetrahedral apical cell (as in ferns), or by a multicellular and slowly proliferating quiescent centre ...

The Royal Society of Canada (RSC) is considered the most prestigious collection of Canadian scholars, artists and researchers ...

Adventitious roots (prop roots, stilt roots) of P. auritum are dimorphic, with differences in form, structure, and orientation between above-ground and subterranean portions.

Stanford, CA-- Plants form a vast network of below-ground roots that search soil for needed resources. The structure and function of this root network can be highly adapted to particular ...

Plants form a vast network of below-ground roots that search soil for needed resources. The structure and function of this root network can be highly adapted to particular environments such as ...

This illustrates how structure determination is essential in establishing evolutionary links between proteins in which structure and function have been conserved through eons of evolution despite ...

Plants using C4 photosynthesis grow 20-100 percent quicker than more common C3 plants by altering the shape, size and structure of their leaves and roots, according to a new study.

Plants form a vast network of below-ground roots that search soil for needed resources. The structure and function of this root network can be highly adapted to particular environments, such as desert ...
