Mineral nutrient compositon changes of Lettuce under salt stress
Plants under salt stress suffer severe changes to their nutrient uptake, which alters their nutrient composition. While some ions are taken up more due to their higher availability, others are less so due to higher competition wit ...

Improving seed priming in Arabidopsis
Seed priming is a pre-germination treatment which can be used to improve the uniformity and germination rate of seed batches. Additionally, it can make seeds more resilient to abiotic stresses. It is used frequently by seed compan ...

Why can we store dry seeds for so long?
Once harvested, a well dried seed can remain alive for years and decades without losing its ability to germinate and grow into a new plant. This is an amazing ability and a great evolutionary trick, but also an important trait for ...
