Beyond photorespiration: A systematic approach to unlocking enhanced plant productivity
Apr 04, 2025
A study published in Science Advances has revealed promising strategies to significantly improve crop yields by addressing photorespiration, a metabolic process that can reduce productivity by up to 36% in some crops. Researchers from the University of Groningen and Heinrich Heine University Düssel
dorf, working as part of the GAIN4CROPS project, have evaluated several alternative pathways that could help overcome this major agricultural bottleneck. ...read more read less
