"There seems to be no limit for the degree of chemical complexity that interstellar space is able to fabricate." ...

Exposure to air pollutants during critical developmental periods may significantly impact autism risk, according to ...

A genetic “off switch” that shuts down nitrogen fixation when soil nitrate levels are high has been identified by a global ...

A new technique selectively removes nitrogen atoms from rotaxanes and forms a stabilising carbon–carbon bond, without ...

When two nitrogen atoms join together, they share three pairs of electrons to form a triple bond, rendering the molecule nearly unbreakable. The energy required to break the nitrogen triple bond ...

"How is plant growth controlled?" and "What is the basis of variation in stress tolerance in plants?" were among the 125 most ...

A gene controlling potato growth limits the plant’s fertilizer uptake. Tweaking related genes could lead to more sustainable potato varieties.

Because nitrogen fertilizers contribute to global greenhouse gas emissions, scientists are looking for ways to modify ...

The study reveals how common air pollutants, including fine particulate matter and nitrogen oxides, can trigger complex ...

Researchers have identified the StCDF1 factor as a key regulator of nitrogen use in potatoes, influencing both nitrate uptake and tuber development. - Inactivation of the StCDF1 gene in modern potato ...

Nov. 4, 2024 — A research team has discovered two remarkable species of bacteria in the tissue of two deep-sea corals from the Gulf of Mexico. These previously unknown symbionts of the corals ...
