About this work
jsc2024e016233 (10/12/2023) --- The C4 Space project will grow and test Setaria, a C4 model grass species. APEX-09 observes two plant species (C3 and C4) with differing mechanisms for capturing CO2 during photosynthesis. Researchers aim to uncover the molecular changes that occur in plants when they are exposed to microgravity and a combination of space flight stressors. Image courtesy of Dr. Handakumbura.
