UNDERSTANDING NEGLECT OF PLANT BIOLOGY EDUCATION IN MICHIGAN MIDDLE SCHOOLS
… was to identify historical trends of neglect in plant biology education, their continuation today in Michigan middle school classrooms, and to uncover reasons for this neglect. A content analysis of state and national science standards and an online survey of Michigan middle school life science …

Web development for P3DB and Fatplants
Researchers working in plant biology have a wealth of data collected by labs across the globe to assist them in their studies. There are massive databasesS containing phosphorylation data, proteins, genes, and interaction data. In efforts to study plant lipid metabolism and to increase crop oil …

EXPLORING LYCOPODIACEAE ENDOPHYTES, DENDROLYCOPODIUM SYSTEMATICS, AND THE FUTURE OF FERN MODEL SYSTEMS
… addressing disparate topics in seed-free plant biology. Firstly, I begin to describe the endophyte communities of lycophytes by identifying the culturable endophytes of five Lycopodiaceae species. Microbial endophytes are integral factors in plant evolution, ecology, and physiology. …

Conversion of Traditional Observation-Based Botany Labs to Investigative Inquiry Learning
… constructing new knowledge. Low enrollment in Plant Biology and Diversity and upper level plant science courses has been noticed at Western Kentucky University. In addition, graduating students performed below the national average on the senior assessment examination in the area of botany …

Advancing Precision Agriculture Through AI and Statistical Modeling: Transforming Crop and Livestock Management
… focusing on both livestock man- agement and plant biology. The first part investigates automated weight prediction of beef cattle using computer vision techniques, including YOLOv9 and InternImage with Cas- cade R-CNN for precise image segmentation. Advanced feature extraction methods …

Improvement of a high throughput method for identification of T-DNA insertion events in an activation-tagged population of Populus tremula x Populus alba.
… Since the introduction of mutation in plants nearly a century ago (Stadler, 1928), mutant populations have been generated in every major crop as well as many additional species (Sikora et al., 2011). While mutant populations have become commonplace in the study of plant biology, the …

The Integration of Metabolite and Hormone Signalling Drives Seedling Development
Sugars have a profound impact on plant biology, acting as structural components, signalling molecules, and sources of energy. As such, the availability of sugars has important implications for plant growth and development. Sugar levels rise and fall as part of a daily cycle, while cues from other …

Biologically-inspired high-performance envelope design in tropical climates
… to the physiological adaptations of tropical plants to identify fac̦ade design strategies that reduce or eliminate the need for air conditioning in hot-humid regions. Using the dynamic stressors of tropical climates as a source of inspiration, this work hypothesizes that the abundant latent …

Systems Analysis of Plant Responses to Drought
Understanding how plants respond to environmental stress is critical for ensuring stable crop performance and predicting how natural populations may adapt to a changing climate. While plant biology has traditionally focused on plant physiology and molecular biology of model plants to elucidate …
