Two major scientific publications have just revealed some surprising findings about the world’s plant biodiversity. The first refutes a widely accepted theory: the climate is not the only factor explaining biodiversity…
Researchers of the Technical University of Munich in Germany, working in international science teams, are conducting experiments to identify untapped genetic resources to increase wheat yields around the world.
Researchers at the University of California, Davis/USA, have found a way to reduce the amount of nitrogen fertilisers needed to grow cereal crops. It could save farmers billions of dollars annually in fertiliser costs.…
Africa's protected areas (PAs) are the last stronghold of the continent's unique biodiversity, but they appear increasingly threatened by climate change, substantial human population growth, and land-use change.
An international team of scientists have developed new monitoring indicators for the protection of marine and coastal areas. In their study, they show that large gaps exist in the protection of marine ecosystems.…
Researchers from ETH Zurich/Switzerland, the United States and Uganda have identified the gene responsible for resistance in certain cassava cultivars against the devastating cassava mosaic disease. This is an important…
As the world comes to terms with a potential global food crisis triggered by the conflict in Ukraine, CGIAR researchers have identified priority actions for global policy makers to mitigate supply and price shocks and to…
In collaboration with local economists, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) has analysed the expected economic benefits to farmers and consumers resulting from the adoption of GM crops in five…
Scientists from the University of Western Australia discovered how plants control the amount of carbon from photosynthesis that they store to build biomass using a metabolic channel. This is a relatively rare plant…
