Japanese and Bulgarian researchers learned how one such species pulled it off by comparing it with a non-resurrecting relative. Their findings showed that the Orpheus flower (Haberlea rhodopensis) got ready for dry […]

Say hello to my little friend: Trees have developed a symbiotic relationship with fungi to survive drought stress
New analysis of the symbiotic relationship between trees and fungi decodes how the pair withstands drought. These conclusions give scientists a better understanding of how the mutual association can be used to develop more plant feedstocks for bioenergy in case of drought. By investigating how specific adaptations of common fungi are created in relation to […]
