(2009)
Part of America's answer to the current energy crisis could be fuels made from plants. Fuel made from plant materials, such as cellulose or corn kernels, not only holds promise of reducing our nation's dependence on foreign ...
Constructing proteome and metabolome maps for genetic improvement of energy-related traits in soybean [abstract]
(2009)
Although the genetic blueprint of soybean is represented by the genome, its phenotype is a product of that blueprint manifested as the production of proteins and metabolites influencing growth characteristics, stress ...
Enhancement of plant vision to increase drought tolerance and bioproduction [abstract]
(2009)
Energy needs of the worlds growing population have become central issues to policy and science discussion over the past few years. Not only are our non-renewable sources of energy being depleted at alarming rates, their ...
Molecular mechanisms of effector-triggered immunity in plants [abstract]
(2009)
Like other organisms, plants are continuously exposed to potential pathogens. Yet most plants are resistant to most pathogens because of multi-layered defenses. The most potent forms of plant defenses are triggered when ...
