A new study has identified the bee’s knees of bumble bee dietary options in Ohio and the Upper Midwest.

Scientists have uncovered the atomic mechanisms that make a class of compounds called argyrodites attractive candidates for both solid-state battery electrolytes and thermoelectric energy converters.

Researchers have cloned the wheat rust resistance genes and identified that they encode unusual kinase fusion proteins. Their research will enable new options for addressing resistance to disease in bread wheat.

Fertilized chicken eggs can be sexed by “sniffing” volatile chemicals emitted through the shell, according to new research.

Scientists have found what they believe to be the earliest known evidence of wine drinking in the Americas, inside ceramic artefacts recovered from a small Caribbean island.

More effort is needed to bring salt-tolerant crops to the farmers who need them.

Coastal ecosystems emit methane and nitrous oxide and act as a sink for carbon dioxide. New findings of the greenhouse gas balance of these ecosystems around the world show them to act as a net greenhouse gas sink.

New research reveals how coral cells tag friendly algae before ingesting them, initiating a mutually beneficial relationship. This information could guide next-level coral conservation efforts.

Chemical engineers have developed an industrial process to produce acetic acid that uses the excess carbon dioxide(CO2) in the atmosphere, and has a potential to create negative carbon emissions.

Recent research has hypothesized that the earliest evidence of human lip kissing originated in a very specific geographical location in South Asia 3,500 years ago, but new research contests this theory.
