- New Garden Rose (Rosa × hybrida) Genotypes with Intensely Colored Flowers as Rich Sources of Bioactive Compounds · Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 2024
- Beneficial medicinal effects and material applications of rose · Heliyon, 2024
- The scent of roses, a bouquet of fragrance diversity · Journal of experimental botany, 2024
A paper is a paper, not a verdict: titles are listed so you can read them, and a study on cells or mice says little about a cream on a face.
