The Ethics of Plant Flourishing and Agricultural Ethics: Theoretical Distinctions and Concrete Recommendations in Light of the Environmental Crisis

open access: yesPhilosophies, 2021
Many activities towards plants are directly related to environmental crisis issues. However, our actions towards plants are little theorized in philosophy and ethics.

Transparent soil for imaging the rhizosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Understanding of soil processes is essential for addressing the global issues of food security, disease transmission and climate change. However, techniques for observing soil biology are lacking. We present a heterogeneous, porous, transparent substrate

Co-expression networks for plant biology: why and how.

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2019
Co-expression network analysis is one of the most powerful approaches for interpretation of large transcriptomic datasets. It enables characterization of modules of co-expressed genes that may share biological functional linkages.

Synthetic biology of plant natural products: From pathway elucidation to engineered biosynthesis in plant cells

open access: yesPlant Communications, 2021
Plant natural products (PNPs) are the main sources of drugs, food additives, and new biofuels and have become a hotspot in synthetic biology. In the past two decades, the engineered biosynthesis of many PNPs has been achieved through the construction of ...

Morphological Plant Modeling: Unleashing Geometric and Topological Potential within the Plant Sciences

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The geometries and topologies of leaves, flowers, roots, shoots, and their arrangements have fascinated plant biologists and mathematicians alike. As such, plant morphology is inherently mathematical in that it describes plant form and architecture with ...

The Pocket Encyclopedia of Plant Galls. Arnold Darlington. New York: Philosophical Library, 1968.191 pp. $7.50. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Excerpt: Plant galls or cecidia have always fascinated and bewildered the biologist and the layman, and only recently has there been much attention paid to the biology of gall makers and the physiology of gall development. There are several \u27early\u27

Application of CRISPR/Cas9 in plant biology

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2017
The CRISPR/Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated proteins) system was first identified in bacteria and archaea and can degrade exogenous substrates. It was developed as a gene editing technology in 2013.

Making small molecules in plants: A chassis for synthetic biology-based production of plant natural products.

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2022
Plant natural products have been extensively exploited in food, medicine, flavor, cosmetic, renewable fuel and other industrial sectors. Synthetic biology has recently emerged as a promising means for cost-effective and sustainable production of natural ...

Plant GATA Factors: Their Biology, Phylogeny, and Phylogenomics.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Plant Biology, 2022
GATA factors are evolutionarily conserved transcription factors that are found in animals, fungi, and plants. Compared to that of animals, the size of the plant GATA family is increased.
