Plant genetics, sustainable agriculture and global food security.
The United States and the world face serious societal challenges in the areas of food, environment, energy, and health. Historically, advances in plant genetics have provided new knowledge and technologies needed to address these challenges. Plant genetics remains a key component of global food security, peace, and prosperity for the foreseeable future. Millions of lives depend upon the extent ...
متن کاملPart 1 The issues of plant science and food security
The underpinning fundamental challenge of food security is to match supply and demand. In a simple world this challenge would be met by straightforward technology that balances these two market forces. However, we do not live in a simple world. Innovations to save labour in production, for example, would be damaging if they eliminate the only source of personal income for farmworkers. In other ...
متن کاملPlant science called up to provide food security
The fundamental understanding of plant biochemistry, physiology and genetics, along with insights into ecology, plant evolution and the domestication of common crop species will have to serve agricultural applications to ensure that the growing population of our rapidly changing planet will have sufficient food in the coming decades. Michael Gross reports.
متن کاملTowards plant wires
In experimental laboratory studies we evaluate a possibility of making electrical wires from living plants. In scoping experiments we use lettuce seedlings as a prototype model of a plant wire. We approximate an electrical potential transfer function by applying direct current voltage to the lettuce seedlings and recording output voltage. We analyse oscillation frequencies of the output potenti...
متن کاملTowards understanding plant bioacoustics.
Little is known about plant bioacoustics. Here, we present a rationale as to why the perception of sound and vibrations is likely to have also evolved in plants. We then explain how current evidence contributes to the view that plants may indeed benefit from mechanosensory mechanisms thus far unsuspected.
