Plant engineering method promises to dramatically improve biofuel and bioproduct development
The ability to genetically engineer plants is largely thanks to a microscopic helper: a bacterium called Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Agrobacterium in the wild causes damaging tumors in flowering plants ...
Plant breeding plays a vital role in ensuring global food security by increasing crop yields, improving nutritional quality and creating crops that are adaptable to climate change. However, current ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Humanity's efforts to modify food plants is as old as farming itself, some 10,000 years. Before genetic engineering became possible, farmers have used simple selection inter- and ...
A research team has created gene-edited crops without using tissue culture. A team of plant biotechnologists led by Gunvant Patil at Texas Tech University (TX, USA) has developed a groundbreaking ...
