Botanists have identified key regulatory networks controlling how plants grow 'outwards,' which could help us to grow trees to be more efficient carbon sinks and increase vegetable crop yields. Two ...

Scientists from the University of Helsinki have uncovered how plants restore the vascular cambium stem cells, a key tissue type that forms wood and phloem, when it gets damaged. Plants cannot move ...

An inter-university research group has succeeded in constructing the gene expression network behind the vascular development process in plants. They achieved this by performing bioinformatics analysis ...
