Scientists identify the genes required for the biosynthesis of carthamin

Carthamin is a red pigment that stems from the yellow-orange corollas of safflower. Its usage as a red colorant can be traced back to ancient Egypt. In Japan it is named "beni" and has been used for dyeing textiles, coloring cosmetics and food, and as an herbal medicine for over 1400 years.

Research shows how dendrimers avoid detection by the immune system

Tiny synthetic particles known as dendrimers have been shown to avoid detection by our immune system and so could be used to develop a new system to deliver drugs into the body without triggering a reaction.

Review compares site-specific nutrient management approach with farmers' fertilization practice

Recently released in the Elsevier journal, Global Food Security, a team of scientists published the first comprehensive systematic review comparing the site-specific nutrient management approach to farmers' practice within smallholder cereal crop production systems in Asia and Africa.

Growing wheat endowed with biological nitrification inhibition raises productivity, quality

An international collaboration has discovered and transferred to elite wheat varieties a wild-grass chromosome segment that causes roots to secrete natural inhibitors of nitrification, offering a way to dial back on heavy fertilizer use for wheat and to reduce the crop's nitrogen leakage into waterways and air, while maintaining or raising its productivity and grain quality, says a new report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America.
