Read moreScientists discover new plant hormone
Scientists from the Wageningen University Laboratory of Plant Physiology and an international team of scientists have discovered a new group of plant hormones, the so-called strigolactones. This group...
Agricultural and Forestry Science | Read moreUS Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute announces new genome sequencing projects
In the continuing effort to tap the vast, unexplored reaches of the earth's microbial and plant domains for bioenergy and environmental applications, the DOE Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) has ...
Life Sciences | Read moreFungi the cause of many outbreaks of disease but mostly ignored
Fungi can cause a number of life-threatening diseases but they also are becoming increasingly useful to science and manufacturing every year. However, many people, scientists among them, are largely u...

The high world population growth rate and the expansion of areas given over to crop production associated with climatic changes (longer periods of drought, irregular rainfall patterns) induced by glob...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation | Read moreHissing cockroaches are popular, but they also host potent mold allergens
But the giant insects also have one unfortunate characteristic: Their hard bodies and feces are home to many mold species that could be triggering allergies in the kids and adults who handle the bugs,...
Life Sciences | Read moreA common genetic mechanism discovered in nitrogen-fixing plants
Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis (which links a plant to a fungus) thus gives plants a mechanism for improving their supply of water and mineral nutrition. This association has been in existence for 4...
Agricultural and Forestry Science | Read moreMechanisms of plant-fungi symbiosis characterized by DOE Joint Genome Institute
The genetic mechanism of this kind of symbiosis, which contributes to the delicate ecological balance in healthy forests, also provides insights into plant health that may enable more efficient carbon...
Life Sciences | Read moreSecrets of cooperation between trees and fungi revealed
Their delicate balance is now being revealed for the very first time. VIB researchers at Ghent University in colaboration with an international team have succeeded in unravelling the genetic code of t...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation | Read moreThe complexity of termite symbiotic relationships with fungi could hinder the control strategy against this insect pest
Contrary to other termites, the species of this subfamily-cannot digest either cellulose or lignin, basic constituents of their food plants, and therefore call on the services of a symbiotic relations...
Agricultural and Forestry Science | Read moreVirus named as possible factor in honey bee disorder
“Our extensive study suggests that the Israeli Acute Paralysis Virus (IAPV) may be a potential cause of Colony Collapse Disorder,” said W. Ian Lipkin, director of the Center for Infection and Immunolo...
Life Sciences | Read moreBee researchers close in on Colony Collapse Disorder
"We have not proven a causal relationship between any infectious agent and CCD," the researchers report in today's (Sept. 6) issue of Science Express online. However, they note that the...
Life Sciences | Read moreMoroccan High Atlas: cypress replanting unsuccessful without dual cultivation with lavender or mycorrhizal fungi
One of the representative species of this flora, the cypress Cupressus atlantica, is experiencing year by year a decrease in its biomass production and the surface areas it occupies. This species cont...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation | Read moreDOE JGI sequences, releases genome of symbiotic tree fungus
The complete Laccaria genome sequence was announced July 23 at the Fifth International Conference on Mycorrhiza in Granada, Spain by an international consortium comprised of DOE JGI, Oak Ridge Nationa...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation | Read moreSymbiotic fungus does not depend on fungus-farming ants for reproduction, researchers say
Fungus-farming ants are dependent on cultivating fungus gardens for food, and it has been widely believed the fungi also evolved dependence on the ants for their dispersal and reproduction. When young...
