Since these chemical markers only ‘mask’ the underlying genetic code without mutating it ... They showed that the first wave corresponded to 5mC, a DNA modification already known in animals and plants ...

Further genetic improvements are needed to meet the challenges of modern agriculture, according to scientists hosting a ...

Genetic modification of plant and organelle genomes sometimes results in retained greeness during leaf senescence in plants. These phenomena are referred to as stay-green. Now that our knowledge on ...

Imagine a world where the very essence of life—genes, species, and the building blocks of nature—can be claimed, bought, and ...

It’s the first instance where it has been possible to demonstrate that, by improving the efficiency of photosynthesis, there is an increase in yield under field conditions,” said plant scientist ...

Plant biotechnology can be defined as the introduction of desirable traits into plants through genetic modification. The tobacco rattle virus was engineered to express the RNA-guided TnpB enzyme ...

Plant biotechnology uses tools like genetic modification and bioengineering to enhance crops’ resilience, nutritional value, and sustainability in the face of challenges like climate change. Biosafety ...

The American genetic engineering firm Colossal Biosciences recently announced to much fanfare it had "de-extincted" the dire ...

Grasslands Technology says technology has moved on to where genetically modified plants could co-exist with the organic ...

Now, researchers reporting in ACS Nano detail a possible solution that doesn't require genetic modification to make rice plants thrive in these conditions. In lab experiments, they determined that ...

Since these chemical markers only 'mask' the underlying genetic code without ... wave corresponded to 5mC, a DNA modification already known in animals and plants that targets and silences so ...
