Rice plants are a big source of methane, an extremely potent greenhouse gas. Scientists just developed a strain that cuts ...

The rice plant and soil microorganisms have a collaborative relationship. The plant releases organic carbon through its roots, which feeds the microbes, which release nutrients that sustain the rice.

Scientists have demonstrated that Wrinkle-lipped free-tailed bats not only travels great distances, but also hunt at impressive altitudes of up to 1,600 meters above ground -- the altitude at which ...

Rice cultivation is responsible for around 12% of global methane emissions, and these emissions are expected to increase with ...

Scientists have developed a new rice strain that emits 70% less methane, addressing a major source of greenhouse gas ...

Rice is the basis of life for many people. An international research team involving researchers from Würzburg wants to make the plant, which originates from Asia, more resilient to heat and drought.

Using traditional crossbreeding, researchers have created a new strain of rice that produces much less methane, a potent ...

New method of regulating plant hormones allows researchers to increase quality and yields of rice crops grown in saline soil.

Researchers say study highlights the importance of rice breeding and cultivation measures in the mitigation of global warming ...

Researchers have discovered how to significantly reduce methane emissions from rice fields without compromising crop yields.
