Untapping barley"s grain yield potential by mitigating floral degeneration
Barley possesses an indeterminate "spike"-type inflorescence that forms basic floral structures, called spikelets, in a distichous pattern along its central axis (termed rachis). Each rachis node in the barley spike produces three (one central and tw.....»»
An electron microscopy study unravels the mysteries of actin filament polarity
Actin filaments—protein structures critical to living movement from single cells to animals—have long been known to have polarity associated with their physical characteristics, with growing "barbed" and shrinking "pointed" ends. The ends of the.....»»
Researchers find structures that enable rapid transmission of nerve impulses in insects
An animal's brain consists of two different types of cell: neurons, which process and transmit information, and glial cells, which support the neurons in a variety of ways. In 1871, the French anatomist Louis-Antoine Ranvier demonstrated something sp.....»»
