Experiments suggest that it might become possible to nourish plants without photosynthesis—a tool that could one day help feed astronauts and a crowded planet. Canola seedlings can take up acetate, a ...

Students will conduct hands-on laboratory research in the field of photosynthesis and plant molecular biology, working with genetically modified plants (Nicotiana tabacum, a well-established model ...

What happens when a space station starts making its own air and fuel instead of waiting for resupply rockets from Earth? That is the question China quietly began to answer aboard its Tiangong space ...

Researchers at UC Santa Cruz contributed to a new global study published in Science that reveals how severe, long-term drought affects crucial grassland and shrubland ecosystems around the world.

Observe how plants convert light into energy in real time—this experiment captures gas exchange, color change, and growth as photosynthesis unfolds before your eyes. What the US Supreme Court has said ...

Astronauts aboard China's Tiangong space station have, for the first time, produced oxygen and ingredients for rocket fuel in orbit using "artificial photosynthesis" technology, in a breakthrough that ...
