Prospects of Single Cell Transcriptomics in Plant Biology Research

In recent years, plant single-cell transcriptomics has been developing rapidly and enabling researchers to study plant organs with high resolution and high throughput information. Single cell transcriptome technology was first reported in 2009 (Tang et al.,2009) and as the name suggests, single cell transcriptome is the transcriptome of a single cell. Single cell-RNA sequencing (scRNA-sequencing) […]

What Do Farmers Expect From Scientists?

Science aims to continuously provide new ways to improve human livelihood. For farmers in vulnerable regions where soil quality is on the decline and climatic shifts are impacting crop yields, the research efforts of scientists are a beacon of hope for sustaining the productivity of their farms. If farmers were consulted at this very moment […]
