The leaf is one of the most important organs of a plant. Leaves produce food for the plant through a process called photosynthesis. The leaves of different plants vary widely in size, shape and ...

Photosynthesis efficiency in plants is influenced by the type of nitrogen absorbed. Ammonium (NH4+) and nitrate (NO3-) are the primary nitrogen sources, each affecting plant physiology differently.

These arms and pads contain the stomata and chloroplasts responsible for photosynthesis. The arms of this cactus allow it to ...

The huge variety of leaves in the plant kingdom has long been a source of wonder and fascination. The leaves of a banana plant, for instance, are about a million times bigger than the leaves of ...

Nathan Lewis will present about the discovery and development of materials and a system architecture for the direct production of fuels from sunlight. The membrane-embedded microwire array approach is ...

Other teams around the world are also trying to pump-up photosynthesis. Wild Bioscience, a spinout from Oxford University, is working to improve the proportion of each leaf that can ...
