pxGPT turns plant photos into clear records with AI
Carotenoid biosynthesis drives root plasticity through aerenchyma and iron plaque formation in rice
Our study decouples the mechanisms of iron plaque and aerenchyma formation, revealing that these two processes, previously assumed to be mechanistically linked, are regulated independently by distinct hormonal pathways.
Chromosomal Deletions Unlock Fusarium Wilt Resistance in Taiwan Bananas
Academia Sinica Builds First Dual Carbon Fixation System in Plants, Published in Science
The carbon absorbed by plants through photosynthesis accounts for the vast majority of carbon uptake on Earth. However, the efficiency of this process still leaves much room for improvement. Enhancing carbon fixation efficiency in plants and promoting their growth is a major focus of the global scientific community.
Dual-cycle CO2 fixation enhances growth and lipid synthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana
Water as a Compass: Hydrostimulation-Triggered Aerial Root Growth in Phalaenopsis aphrodite
Epiphytic orchids have evolved specialized adaptive strategies, such as aerial roots with water- absorbing velamen tissues, to cope with water- scarce and nutrient- deficient habitats. Our previous study revealed that the aerial roots of the epiphytic orchid Phalaenopsis aphrodite lack a gravitropic response,
ENA1, a newly identified root NA exporter in Arabidopsis, modulates zinc homeostasis
pxGPT turns plant photos into clear records with AI
A plant breeder might describe a plant like this: “The leaves are round, slightly wrinkled, and bright green.” These notes are useful. But looking at many plants and writing each record takes time. Different words for the same feature also make the notes hard to compare.

Chromosomal Deletions Unlock Fusarium Wilt Resistance in Taiwan Bananas
Fusarium wilt has long threatened the global banana industry. Because most edible banana cultivars are sterile triploids, conventional breeding is difficult and often fails to deliver new cultivars acceptable to farmers and consumers.
Dual-cycle CO2 fixation enhances growth and lipid synthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana
Plants fix carbon dioxide through photosynthesis, converting it into organic compounds. However, during photorespiration and lipid biosynthesis, significant amount the fixed carbon is released back into the atmosphere. To solve this inefficiency, we introduced a synthetic carbon-fixing cycle, named McG cycle
