Over the last couple of years I have been writing individual chapters of what I call

Each chapter covers a specific, basic, but for some reason special and interesting aspect of #PlantScience research.

It is sad that even basic research needs to be defended with utility. For me, basic research is in the same category as art: civilized societies can't do without it, because we all want to know who we are and what our place in the natural world is -- questions that only science can answer.
