Microscopists raise concerns about inappropriate AI usage in Nikon's microscopy contest-winning video. Nikon stands their ground, citing no policy breach.

FLOWERING LOCUS C orthologues with expression maxima in seeds are associated with an effect of vernalisation intensity on seed size Brassica napus

Abstract. Membraneless organelles (MLOs) in eukaryotic cells, such as the nuclear Cajal body (CB), have been notoriously difficult to biochemically isolate

A mechanistic basis for how the hormone salicylic acid promotes transcriptional activation during plant immune responses is described.

Plant receptor-like kinases (RLKs) are involved in diverse processes, ranging from growth and reproduction to interactions with microbes. Variation in the extracellular domains delineates several RLKs...

Asimov Press returns with a renewed focus on original reporting, investigations, and thesis-driven philanthropy.

Developing climate-smart crops with enhanced crop productivity, nutritional quality, resistance to biological and environmental stressors is vital for global...

Plants perceive external and internal signals via receptors to modulate their growth, development, and defenses. Leucine-rich-repeat receptor-like-kinase (RLKs) and receptor-like-proteins (RLPs) are t...

Interview with Susana Coelho, who uses brown algae to study evolution, development, and life-cycle complexity at the Max Planck Institute for Biology.

Awards that celebrate humour, curiosity and irreverence are a balm in hard times.

The large, repeat-rich, and highly heterozygous rye (Secale cereale L.) genome has posed significant challenges for genome assembly. Here, the authors present an improved rye genome assembly and uncov...

Australia's first genetically modified banana has been tweaked to protect it from a disease that's on the verge of wiping out crops around the world. Researchers hope it may be on our shelves by 2027.

Growers, researchers and plant breeders are looking for a genetically modified saviour for the world's most popular banana variety after the 11th detection of a soil-borne fungus in Queensland.

AAB are delighted to be organising a follow-up meeting to the very successful Plant Science Education meeting held in Lancaster in January 2025. We were delighted to publish a ‘Manifesto […]

Efforts by researchers at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) to restore the American chestnut tree to the American landscape took a significant leap forward with an approved desi...

Fungi, particularly ascomycetes, exhibit diverse ecological lifestyles, including endophytism, pathogenicity, and saprotrophy. Species of the genus Alternaria are taxonomically and ecologically divers...
