12/10/2024 Publication Protein Content of Seed: Increase Improves Growth and Yield

“The content of protein in the seed correlated with subsequent growth and yield, indicating that the amount of endogenous protein or of a proteinaceous moiety, which can be controlled, may be an important factor in subsequent yield of major agronomic crops.”
Matthew D. Whiteside, Ph.D. 12/10/2024 Person Matthew D. Whiteside, Ph.D.

Matthew is a researcher at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, focusing on visualizing nutrients in organisms through the use of nanoparticles called quantum dots.

His research focuses on the use of highly fluorescent nanoparticles, called quantum dots, to visualize nutrients in soil,

12/10/2024 Publication The brighter side of soils: quantum dots track organic nitrogen through fungi and plants

Soil microorganisms mediate many nutrient transformations that are central in terrestrial cycling of carbon and nitrogen. However, uptake of organic nutrients by microorganisms is difficult to study in natural systems. We assessed quantum dots (fluorescent nanoscale semiconductors) as a new tool to observe uptake and translocation of organic nitrogen...
