Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

A recent study by Chinese scientists has revealed the intricate molecular machinery driving energy exchange within chloroplasts, shedding light on a key event in the evolution of plant life. Led by ...

Purdue University scientists have discovered a key mechanism that regulates how plants develop chloroplasts, essential ...

That process, called carbon fixation, resulted in the assembly of two three-carbon molecules called 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA ...

Microplastics are hindering photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert energy from the sun into the fruit and ...

Like animal cells, basic plant cells have a nucleus, a cell membrane and cytoplasm. They've also got a vacuole, chloroplasts and a cell wall, which are only found in plant cells and they can be a ...

Researchers incorporate recombinant genes into plant cell genomes to produce stable proteins using nuclear or chloroplast transformation methods, which incorporate the gene of interest (GOI) into the ...

A new part of an ocean plant cell has been discovered that might revolutionize farming one day. The structure can take ...
