A gas, Viagra and sex in plants - researchers at the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ci'™ncia have found a link
Viagra affects growth of the male sex organ of plants, by intensifying the effect of nitric oxide during plant fertilization. This discovery, made by the Plant Development team at the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ci'™ncia(IGC), in Portugal, will be published in Development, in June. The study, led by José Feij'³, takes a step further in... view more... (2004-05-11)
Ultrasound could help couples undergoing IVF
