Biologists have examined how seed formation is coordinated with fruit growth. They explain the genetic control mechanisms underlying the process. An international team of researchers led by biologists ...

With rising global temperatures and dwindling pollinator populations, food production has become increasingly difficult for the world’s growers. A new study from researchers at the University of ...

Vegetable, fruit, or grain -- the majority of our food results from plant reproduction. Researchers have now discovered the key to how plants regulate pollen growth and seed formation. In addition to ...

When we think of fruits and seeds, we can easily imagine that seeds remain hidden away inside the fruit, like apple seeds in ...
