Balance between nitrogen use efficiency and cadmium tolerance in Brassica napus and Arabidopsis thaliana

NMT Applications
Balance between nitrogen use efficiency and cadmium tolerance in Brassica napus and Arabidopsis thaliana
It is known that nitrogen is critical for plant growth and crop productivity, but it is also known that as the supply of nitrogen increases, the fraction of applied nitrogen that is absorbed and used by the plant decreases, which results in wasted resources. Thus, scientists such as the ones in this study have been looking to improve a plant's abil...

Natural variation in the promoter of rice calcineurin B-like protein10 (OsCBL10) affects flooding tolerance during seed germination among rice subspecies
The ability for crops to withstand flooding has always been something that farmer's have dreamed of. In times of flooding, farmers are often left with fields that can't be planted and crops that have drowned. The loss of these crops to natural disasters such as flooding can be greatly reduced by increasing the plants' ability to withstand these dis...
