New imaging approach using live plants will benefit agriculture and environment
A cross-disciplinary team has used laboratory-based and synchrotron-based infrared spectroscopy imaging techniques to monitor the waxy surface of living plant leaves in real-time to gain insights into plant physiology in response to disease, biological changes or environmental stress.
Deciphering the complex molecular activity that leads to cell death
Research on the mechanism of cell death has insights to bring progress on neurodegenerative diseases and plant biosecurity.
Using nuclear techniques to track micronutrients applied to wheat crops
Researchers from Murdoch University and associated collaborators are using ANSTO’s unique nuclear capabilities to gain detailed information about how wheat crops take in administered micronutrients to maximise their efficient use.
An in-situ experiment on Maple saplings
The sap extracted from Sugar Maple trees, is used to produce maple syrup. There are many conflicting theories and an absence of experimental evidence, regarding the mechanisms involved in maple sap exudation.
ANSTO will share expertise in hydrogen capture and delivery in new ARC linkage grant
ANSTO is collaborating on a project funded with an Australian Research Council linkage grant that will develop new materials and better systems for efficiently storing hydrogen gas.
