Second Award
Native plants are a core identity of Australian Coastal Living. With over 80% of the population living on the coastal fringe, consequently, many assets are located within the Sydney sandston…
Plant Sciences
Fourth Award
Introduced plant species bypass gradual speciation and directly compete with the native species, threatening human health and disrupting the balance of ecosystems. This project aims to syste…
Plant Sciences
It is expected that after checking the antioxidant function of Agastache rugosa through the antioxidant experiment conducted in this study, it will be possible to increase the shelf life of…
Plant Sciences
Agriculturally speaking, the world is in desperate need of another “Green Revolution” to make up for widespread food shortages. Food security has become a global epidemic, and this is largel…
Plant Sciences
Mangiferin, a xanthone glycoside, is extracted primarily from mango trees (Mangifera indica) and is mentioned in Ayurvedic texts to contain several biomedical properties. According to Ayurve…
Plant Sciences
This work reports the design, fabrication, and testing of a flexible digital light processing (DLP) 3D-printed coated microneedle patch, which is designed for transporting copper-based thera…
Plant Sciences
My research project focused on the potential spread and influence of Gambel’s oak within Gunnison’s Sage-grouse habitat near their nesting and lekking areas within the Poncha Pass satellite…
Plant Sciences
Abiotic stresses induce oxidative stress in crops. Oxidative stress is when a plant produces more reactive oxygen species (ROS) than the antioxidant defense system can counteract, which lead…
Plant Sciences
Injuries can be treated using medical devices that produce a pulsating magnetic field aimed at promoting metabolism and substance exchange. I questioned whether this system, a coil attached…
Plant Sciences
Florida is the second largest state in the production of ferns. Ferns rely on high soil moisture levels to thrive. With the threat of drier soils from global warming, it is important to anal…
Plant Sciences
Hydroponic growing in controlled environment horticulture has been an increasingly used method of produce production around the world. Its many methods integrate sustainability and growth ef…
Plant Sciences
Previously unstudied "bending" in the central stems of the Saguaro Cactus, a plant unique to the Sonoran Desert, gives cause for concern about the effects on the health of this protected spe…
Plant Sciences
In the 2018-2019 study, the surface characteristics of natural and synthetic turfgrass were tested. There were significant differences in the surface temperature between the athletic field s…
Plant Sciences
In this experiment, I wanted to test if hydroponics would be able to speed up the normal growth rate of the 'ohi'a lehua comparing it to 'ohi'a plants grown in soil (control). Recently, ther…
Plant Sciences
Poor ventilation and sub-par construction methods cause the proliferation of indoor air pollution, especially in lower-income nations. Specifically, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) pose a…
Plant Sciences
Does inducing auxin inhibit the plant to grow and bend towards the light? Understanding how phytohormones affect plants is vital as they are widely used in agriculture. Auxin is a class of p…
