Plant Stem cell research has long been the pioneer of medical science, with the potential to revolutionize therapies for various human ailments. Most people connect the term “stem cells” with humans or animals, however, a growing body of evidence indicates that plants also include stem cells. Plant stem cells may hold the secret to [...]
A recent study at the University of São Paulo uncovers the underestimated value of sustainable agriculture systems regarding GHG emissions in Brazil. Novel research, done by scientists from the Center for Nuclear Energy in Agriculture – CENA-USP and Luiz de Queiroz College of Agriculture – ESALQ-USP, has explored the contribution [...]
In a society that is becoming more aware of the influence of greenhouse gases on climate change, creative methods to manage and reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are required. Researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering have created a novel biomass-based polymer capable of repeatedly capturing and releasing CO2, suggesting [...]
In an era of increased urbanization, the value of green spaces in urban areas is becoming more apparent. A recent study has identified a wide range of benefits connected with green neighborhoods, including mental and physical health. The Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) undertook a large-scale study highlighting greenery’s value in [...]
Plant cold specialists, such as spoonworts, have adjusted exceptionally well to the cold conditions of the Ice Ages. The changing cold and warm eras resulted in the emergence of diverse species and a large expansion of their genome. This study investigates how these plants have adjusted to their habitats, the [...]
Significant sections of the great fabric of fungal diversity remain unexplored, particularly among insects and fungi. These organisms, which include millions of species that have yet to be cataloged by science, constitute a new frontier for investigation and conservation in the face of accelerating global biodiversity loss. Academy Research Fellow [...]
Effective water quality management can greatly reduce future water scarcity. Global water scarcity, caused by both quantity and quality changes, is a significant barrier to meeting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). A multinational team of researchers has created a revolutionary modeling approach that finds cost-effective mixtures of water management tactics, [...]
A landmark research effort from the University of Leeds revealed the full scale of the environmental impact of long-distance travel. Despite accounting for fewer than 3% of all trips taken by UK residents, travels of more than 50 miles (one way) account for a startling 70% of all passenger travel-related [...]
Farmers in the United States are dealing with the catastrophic consequences of climate change, including severe temperatures, drought, prolonged rainfall, floods, and erosion. These difficulties considerably impact crop productivity, resulting in a growing curiosity about regenerative agriculture. This agricultural method tries to improve soil health through a variety of techniques. It [...]
In a revolutionary research published in the journal Frontiers in Science, researchers claimed that conserving an additional 1.2% of the world’s land may avoid the vast majority of anticipated plant and animal extinctions. This project, anticipated to cost around $263 billion, attempts to address the critical need for conservation in [...]
