Plant biochemists have discovered a new level of regulation in the biochemical 'machinery' that plants use to convert organic carbon derived from photosynthesis into a range of ring-shaped aromatic ...

Researchers at Purdue University and UC Davis have found that petunias cannot properly form reproductive structures without chemical signals delivered between different parts of the plant. The work ...

We offer a research area focused on biochemistry in diverse environments: from water and soil to plants and even concrete! Students take three core biochemistry courses to ground their research and ...

Many plants, including crops, release volatiles in response to insect attack. The chemical compounds can be a defense or can be an aromatic call for help to attract enemies of the attacking insect.

State Key Laboratory of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry (SKLPPB) has the following research output in the current window (1 August 2024 - 31 July 2025) of the Nature Index. Click on Count to view a ...

When a caterpillar, or some other pesky herbivore, nibbles on a leaf, the plant starts sending danger signals to its furthest fronds. These signals can activate the plant’s defense mechanisms, such as ...
