Researchers have identified key structures in photosensitive plant tissue that allow them to determine the direction of light, leading to positive phototropism. A recent research collaboration between ...
On a shelf lined with terra-cotta pots, herbs bend their stems toward the nearest window. In a field of golden wildflowers, leaves rotate with the path of the sun. In a dappled forest, vines twine up ...
Phototropism describes the directed growth of plant organs in response to light gradients, primarily mediated by blue-light photoreceptors known as phototropins. This adaptive behaviour optimises the ...
