Scientists examine how roasting affects the perfect brew
A new study in published in Scientific Reports suggests that the perfect cup of coffee is influenced by a complex blend of variables such as bean processing method, brewing time, and grind size, not just the roast level......»»
Two key proteins boost tomato"s phosphorus efficiency and plant health
Phosphorus is a critical nutrient for plant growth, yet it is often locked away in soils and inaccessible to plants. The natural process of arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis (AMS), in which plants exchange carbon for essential nutrients with fungi, is.....»»
How African countries can build systems to share climate information at the local level
African countries collectively have emitted very little of the greenhouse gases that have caused climate change, but are badly affected by climate-induced floods, droughts and heat waves. To withstand some of the most devastating extreme weather even.....»»
Scientists collect "microbial fingerprints" found in household plumbing
