During the development of marine organisms—from fertilization through to juvenile stages—it is often observed that the eggs ...

Scientists transplant photosynthetic nanoparticles into rats and rabbits with degenerative diseases to boost energy, restore disrupted cells A team of Chinese scientists has found a way to introduce ...

Light-dependent chloroplast movements function to optimize light absorption in photosynthetic cells. Under high light intensity chloroplasts migrate to the anticlinal sides of leaf cells and in low ...

Mitochondria were found to draw oxygen from chloroplasts, modifying photosynthesis and stress responses. A new study from the University of Helsinki reveals how plant mitochondria draw molecular ...

Powdery mildew (Oidium heveae Steinm.) is one of the most important leaf diseases in rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis). However, physiological and molecular processes associated with the Hevea-powdery ...

Plants rely on careful coordination inside every cell to survive, grow, and respond to changing surroundings. Inside plant cells, different genetic systems guide essential tasks such as photosynthesis ...

At first glance, the lettuce sea slug (Elysia crispata) looks like a leafy underwater alien. But what’s hiding inside its frilly green body is far more fascinating than its salad-like appearance.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue University scientists have discovered a key mechanism that regulates how plants develop chloroplasts, essential structures responsible for the photosynthesis that ...

From left, postdoctoral researcher Bidhan Chandra De, chemistry professor Angad Mehta and their colleagues found evidence suggesting that chloroplasts originated as energy-generating organelles and ...

Scientists at The University of Tokyo have integrated chloroplasts, the energy-producing organelles found in plants and algae, into hamster cells, enabling them to perform photosynthesis for up to two ...

Altmetric provides a collated score for online attention across various platforms and media. See more details Plants distribute many nutrients to chloroplasts during leaf development and maturation.
