The Plantik process grows high-heat-tolerant tomatoes in a fraction of the time it would take to do through traditional ...

Drought tolerance: Very good. Size: 3 to 6 feet tall and wide. Color: Leaves stay dark green even in the heat, and flowers bloom yellow-orange, reddish-orange, or deep red. You can also trim it to ...

Our research group has bred corals able to better survive marine heatwaves. Our work, now published in Nature Communications, shows that it is possible to improve coral heat tolerance even within a ...

Scientists created the world’s first heat-tolerant corals to save reefs from climate change. They bred ones with the most promising traits to produce these sea creatures. These special corals ...

Spanish dagger (Yucca gloriosa) grows multiple branches with lime-green leaves, while the red yucca (Hesperaloe parviflora) produces pink flowers all year. Massive dust storms and tumbling tumbleweeds ...

The scientists conducted selective breeding trials among parents with low heat tolerance and those with high heat tolerance. “We conducted two experimental trials to selectively breed either for ...

While the hardy carob tree can provide some natural shade for your outdoor space, here's what you should be aware of before ...

A new study has shown that selective breeding can lead to a modest rise in coral heat tolerance. Led by experts at Newcastle University's Coralassist Lab, the study documents the world's first ...

Just as individual humans handle stress differently, so do corals. Even coral colonies of the same species, growing side by side, vary in their tolerance to pressures such as heatwaves. In research ...

Scientists have taken a significant step toward protecting coral reefs by successfully breeding corals with improved heat tolerance, according to a new study. This groundbreaking research ...

Goetze: I’m always amazed and impressed by elements of our local flora that seem to be unfazed by the hot and dry seasonal ...
