New palladium-gold alloy catalyst boosts methane-to-ethylene conversion with solar power

Researchers just hit two benefits with one catalyst. They converted methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas, into ethylene (C2H4), a highly demanded raw material in industrial sectors, using sunlight and a newly designed palladium–gold (PdAu) alloy cocatalyst. This process not only removed an unwanted gas from the atmosphere but also turned it into a valuable resource by harnessing solar power.

High-pressure electrolysis sustainably converts captured CO₂ into industrial-grade ethylene

Researchers at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology have unveiled a breakthrough system that could change the way we think about carbon emissions. Published in Nature Catalysis the researchers outline a system for converting captured carbon dioxide (CO₂) into industrial-grade ethylene, a commodity chemical essential to plastics, textiles, and construction. The work shows a direct path to transforming greenhouse gas emissions into valuable chemical products.

How plants control partnerships with fungi: Study finds stress hormones influence symbiosis

How do symbioses between plants and fungi develop? How do plants decide whether or not to enter into a partnership with fungi? The team of Prof. Dr. Caroline Gutjahr, director at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology in Potsdam, is shedding light on the underground partnership of plants.

Large differences in water-seeking ability found in US corn varieties

A corn plant knows how to find water in soil with the very tips of its roots, but some varieties, including many used for breeding high-yielding corn in the U.S., appear to have lost a portion of that ability, according to a Stanford-led study. With climate change increasing droughts, the findings hold potential for developing more resilient varieties of corn.

Unveiling the ethylene-inhibiting mechanism of the allelochemical Myrigalone A – Mauro Maver

This study by Heslop-Harrison et al. investigates the allelochemical Myrigalone A and its potential as an ACC oxidase inhibitor, which disrupts ethylene biosynthesis and affects seed germination and plant development. The findings highlight MyA’s promise for agricultural applications, including weed control and stress resilience, with broader implications for sustainable farming practices.

Some fruits produce high amounts of ethylene gas - a signaling molecule that triggers physiological changes which cause fruit to ripen. That’s why the more fruit you keep together, the faster they ripen.
