Transgenic plants are plants into which one or more genes from another species have been introduced into the genome, using genetic engineering processes. Techniques include the biolistic method ...

There were significant differences in shoot biomass between transgenic and control plants when measured either on a fresh or dry weight basis (Table 2). The transgenic plants had 64% higher shoot ...

A group of Canadian undergrads is using plants to revolutionize medicine. Faced with soaring drug prices and global shortages ...

A team of undergraduate researchers has developed an innovative way to produce essential medications more affordably and sustainably. The Phytogene project, led by students from the University of ...

New genomic techniques can increase food security and mitigate climate change effects. EU rules aim to regulate these plant ...

While the nascent field of biopharming has had some success in creating vaccines and cancer treatments with the help of transgenic plants, none have been able to synthesize anything as popular as ...

Transgenic organisms have the potential to address environmental challenges. For example, plants can be engineered to absorb and degrade pollutants from soil or water, a process known as ...

Images taken from an unmanned aerial vehicle, processed with free software, help assess water stress parameters in corn ...

However, due to certain regulations imposed by the food safety authorities across the world , the transgenic plants are not directly accessible to the farmers and consumers. Now through the new ...

Previous data suggested that M. occidentalis could not survive the wet, humid summers in Florida. A non-transgenic strain of M. occidentalis was released into field plots in Gainesville on soybean ...
