In the war between the sexes, the one with the closest fungal relationship wins
The war between the sexes has been fought on many fronts throughout time—from humans to birds to insects, the animal kingdom is replete with species involved in their own skirmishes. A recent ...

Read moreThe defense strategy of plants
If the mechanism that plants use to defend themselves can be understood, it will be possible to produce plants that are resistant to disease. The Plant Immunity Research Group is also undertaking rese...
Life Sciences | Read moreStudy shows more corn for biofuels would hurt water
The study of Indiana water sources found that those near fields that practice continuous-corn rotations had higher levels of nitrogen, fungicides and phosphorous than corn-soybean rotations. Results o...

Dr. Paul DeLaune, environmental soil scientist at the Texas AgriLife Research and Extension Center at Vernon, said tillage operations can increase soil compaction, thereby increasing runoff. E...
Agricultural and Forestry Science | Read moreResearchers peer into nanowires to measure dopant properties
But in order to utilize the novel properties of nanowires, their composition must be precisely controlled, and researchers must better understand just exactly how the composition is determined by the ...
Physics and Astronomy | Read moreResearchers call for nitrogen and phosphorus reductions to combat eutrophication in aquatic systems
In the February 20 edition of Science, the researchers argue that dual-nutrient reduction strategies are likely to be more successful due to complex interactions between nitrogen and phosphorus in fre...
