Aussie research could boost crop production – Foodprocessing
Research conducted by scientists at the Australian National University could lead to improvements in crop production, by ramping up photosynthesis.
Research led by scientists at the Australian National University (ANU) could lead to improvements in crop production. The study shows a new way to help study and ramp up photosynthesis. The breakthrough is based on revisiting an original strategy in plants. The research looks at rubisco activity a crucial part of the process according to co-author Professor Spencer Whitney, from the ARC Centre of Excellence for Translational Photosynthesis at ANU.
Rubisco is an enzyme involved in the first step…
