Plants monitor the integrity of their barrier by sensing gas diffusion - Nature
The periderm is a protective outer tissue in seed plants consisting of phellem, phellogen, and phelloderm, playing a key role in responding to environmental stresses.
Get to grips with pollination your garden (and the bees) will thank you for it
Many plants need a pollinator like bees or butterflies, but hermaphrodite plants can self-pollinate or thrive better with help from others in proximity.
'Landmark' evolution study shows how rice inherits tolerance to cold without DNA changes
Rice plants can pass on cold tolerance epigenetically without altering their genomes, suggesting new evolutionary mechanisms influenced by environmental pressures.
