Blue and Green: Biologists from San Diego could help scientists understand how the burning of fossil fuels affects plants and help engineer ways to improve crops. Scientists at the University of California, San Diego, have published a paper in the journal Nature regarding the discovery of a new genetic pathway in plants. This will help biologists know more about how climate change and the rising levels of CO2 are affecting plants and crops. It could help scientists to engineer plants in such a way that they could...

Mongabay: Strong memory, being able to predict the future, and acting based on ones surroundings are traits typically associated only with the most advanced types of animals. However, a team of German and Dutch scientists from the Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research (UFZ) and the University of Göttingen found ecological evidence that plants also have these abilities. Their findings were recently published in The American Naturalist. The researchers made their discovery by studying the European...
