Plants and trees may seem pretty passive, but behind the scenes, their cells are working hard to put on a magic show. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we’ll explore how the processes of ...

Alternative oxidase (AOX) plays a pivotal role in plant mitochondrial respiration by providing a non-phosphorylating bypass to the cytochrome pathway. By transferring electrons directly from ubiquinol ...

All plants and animals respire, releasing energy from food. At the cellular level, this process occurs in the mitochondria. But there are differences at the molecular level between how plants and ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The energy relations and heat production during plant growth are analysed in terms of respiration, dry weight, and growth. Wastage respiration ...

It’s one of the most pivotal processes on the planet. Photosynthesis – the removal of carbon from the atmosphere to produce ...

Potassium naphthenate, 20 mM, was applied to the foliage of 14-day-old plants of bush bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L, cv Top Crop, maize, Zea mays L, cv Golden Bantam, spring wheat, Triticum vulgare Vill.

Both biotic factors (microbial biomass and leaf nutrients) and abiotic factors (climate, soil properties, and elevation) play ...

New research provides the first-ever, atomic-level, 3D structure of the largest protein complex (complex I) involved in the plant mitochondrial electron transport chain. The results could unlock new ...
