Increasing environmental conditions caused by climate change, an ever-growing human population, scarcity of arable land, and limited resources are pressuring the agriculture industry to adopt more sustainable and precise practices that foster more ef
A microneedle-based drug delivery technique for plants that can deliver controlled amounts of agrochemicals to plant tissues could be used to improve crop quality and disease management. The work was developed at SMART, MIT, and Temasek Life Sciences Laboratory.
The agriculture industry is under pressure to adopt sustainable and precise agricultural practices that enable more efficient use of resources due to worsening environmental conditions resulting from climate change, an ever-expanding human population, limited resources, and a shortage of arable land
Researchers developed the first nanosensor that can detect and distinguish gibberellins, a class of hormones in plants that are important for growth. The carbon nanotube sensors could have many applications for agriculture and plant biotechnology.
Researchers from Temasek Life Sciences Laboratory (TLL) and the Disruptive & Sustainable Technologies for Agricultural Precision (DiSTAP) Interdisciplinary Research Group (IRG) of Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), the research arm of MIT in Singapore, have created the first ever nanosensors capable of detecting and differentiating gibberellins (GAs), a class of hormones in plants that are crucial for growth.
