    The explosive hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), a major component of munitions, is used extensively on military training ranges. As a result, widespread RDX pollution in groundwater and aquifers in the United States is now well documented. RDX is toxic, but its removal from training ranges is logistically challenging, lacking cost-effective and sustainable solutions. Previously, we…

    • A three-year field trial of growing switchgrass engineered to express two enzymes that degrade the explosive RDX at military sites contaminated with the munition shows that it detoxifies these plots, according to a @NatureBiotech paper. https://t.co/1cpB0CvdlX https://t.co/MzcZOTLuwb

    Scientists’ research interests are often skewed toward charismatic organisms, but quantifying research biases is challenging. By combining bibliometric data with trait-based approaches and using a well-studied alpine flora as a case study, we demonstrate that morphological and colour traits, as well as range size, have significantly more impact on species choice for wild flowering plants than…

    • Plants that have aesthetic appeal are more likely to be studied by researchers regardless of their ecological importance, suggests a paper in @NaturePlants. These findings have implications for conservation biology and may inform better research practices. https://t.co/xb3OTm7IwY https://t.co/JGqYzsPMvh
