Investigating Plasmodesmata Function in Arabidopsis Thaliana Using a Low-Pressure Bombardment System and GFP Movement Assay
Plasmodesmata are nanopores in the plant cell wall that allow direct cell-to-cell communication. They are key for plant growth, development, and... -
Wheat Biotechnology
Different methods and techniques have been used to increase production and improve quality in wheat since ancient times. Conventional plant breeding... -
The Production of Therapeutic Radionuclides
Most medicinal radionuclides are not naturally occurring and must therefore be produced via nuclear reactions. An understanding of both nuclear... -
Highly Efficient Genetic Transformation Methods for the Marine Oleaginous Diatom Fistulifera solaris
The oleaginous diatom Fistulifera solaris is a promising producer of biofuel owing to the high content of the lipids. A genetic transformation...
