Plant science research in botanic gardens

Facilitated charge separation in non-covalent NiO–UPDI donor–acceptor composite for efficient photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin

Efficient charge separation remains a central challenge in achieving the deep mineralization of organic pollutants via photocatalysis. Herein, we report a nickel oxide isintegrated with urea-perylene diimide (NiO–UPDI) photocatalyst with a ...

Draft genome of the aquatic moss Fontinalis antipyretica (Fontinalaceae, Bryophyta)

Mosses comprise one of three lineages forming a sister group to extant vascular plants. Having emerged from an early split in the diversification of embryophytes, mosses may offer complementary insights into the evolution of traits followin...

Advances in Plant Sciences

Modern botany is a broad, multidisciplinary subject with inputs from most other areas of science and technology. Research topics include the study of plant structure, growth and differentiation, reproduction, biochemistry and primary metabo...

Ontologies as integrative tools for plant science

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Bio-ontologies are essential tools for accessing and analyzing the rapidly growing pool of plant genomic and phenomic data. Ontologies provide structured vocabularies to support consistent aggregation of data and a sem...
