A new study on genetic pathways in the common liverwort could have future implications for crop manipulation. A new study on genetic pathways in the common liverwort could have future implications for ...

Though it's found around the world, it's easy to overlook the common liverwort - the plant can fit in the palm of one's hand and appears to be comprised of flat, overlapping leaves. Despite their ...

Quinoclamine has been evaluated for POST control of liverwort in nursery crop production. Nearly all previous research has assumed that high spray volumes (e.g., > 935 L/ha) were required for ...

Studying plant vegetative reproduction is key to increasing crop yield and for bioengineering. Kobe University research is making progress in studying the genetic regulation of the process in ...

Move over, marijuana: Scientists have their eye on a THC-like psychoactive chemical found in the unassuming, lumpy Radula, a group of plants in the liverwort family. That’s not to say that some people ...

Question: The last couple of years I’ve been getting this green, matlike weed growing in my shady flower beds. It’s not moss, and it looks kind of like miniature lettuce leaves. What is it, and how do ...

This photo-based field guide to the more common or distinctive bryophytes of northeastern North America gives beginners the tools they need to identify most specimens without using a compound ...

Evolutionary plant biologists at the University of Toronto have identified a protein that evolved approximately 500 million years ago, enabling plants to convert light into energy through ...

A new study on genetic pathways in the common liverwort could have future implications for crop manipulation. The findings of the US-led study, co-authored by genetic biologist Professor John Bowman ...

The common liverwort is a living link to the transition from marine algae to land plants. Biologists have analyzed the genome sequence of the common liverwort (Marchantia polymorpha) to identify genes ...
