What happens inside a plant cell after a heat wave—and does the plant "remember" it? Danforth Center scientist Ru Zhang is leading research into heat stress memory in photosynthetic cells, work that could shape how future crops handle the extreme temperatures that farmers are contending with. Illinois Farmer Today takes a closer look at how researchers and growers are adapting together.
