Flowering plants (angiosperms) can grow at extreme altitudes, and have been observed growing as high as 6,400 metres above sea level1,2; however, the molecular mechanisms that enable plant adaptation specifically to altitude are unknown. One distingu... Read More about An oxygen-sensing mechanism for angiosperm adaptation to altitude.
