Salk researchers have discovered how some plant species evolved a more efficient photosynthesis approach; findings could help ...

Scientists have traced the evolutionary path from C3 to C4 photosynthesis, discovering key regulatory changes that could ...

Scientists discovered a stretch of DNA in both C3 plants, like wheat and soybeans, and C4 plants, like corn and sorghum, that is responsible for optimizing C4 plant photosynthesis and making them ...

All about the way plants turn sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into food.

Both classical and molecular physiological techniques will be used to characterize plant responses to stress. 1. Chloroplast photosynthesis - The O2 evolving complex and modulation by light. 2. Carbon ...

While plants like rice continued using an old form of photosynthesis known as C3, others like corn and sorghum developed a newer and more efficient version called C4. There are now more than 8,000 ...
