Scientists pioneer nanosensor to decode climate change stressors in crops
Image credit: SMART 29 Apr 2024 — Researchers have developed the first nanosensor to monitor salicylic acid (SA) in real-time during the early stages of stress response. This plant hormone is crucial for plant growth, development and stress responses to pathogens, temperature, drought, salinity, metals, UV light and osmotic stress. The team also pioneered …
