If you could save lives by producing vaccines in transgenic bananas ... In addition, genetically modified plants may someday be used to produce recombinant vaccines. In fact, the concept of ...

Biologists have identified important components and mechanisms of the molecular machinery that transmits information about a pathogen encounter within the plant organism.

In comparison to conventional multicellular platforms, plants offer superior speed, higher safety, and scalability for biopharmaceutical production. “Molecular farming started out with transgenic ...

New research has identified crucial components and mechanisms of the plant immune system, potentially helping to develop ...

Now we know that floral scent production is regulated in a similar way in different plants and that the substrate is involved in the regulation of scent production. But it will also make the ...

This is part of a process by which the safety of transgenic plants is verified before they are publicly distributed or widely planted. Timing is not predictable for any of the agencies, and the EPA ...

Cutting-edge editing techniques are accelerating efforts to create high-yield, resilient varieties of major agricultural products.

that downplay certain differences between cisgenesis and traditional breeding and exaggerate certain similarities between cisgenic and transgenic plants to place the former in a positive light ...

Silicon (Si) is one of the most abundant elements on Earth, found in large quantities in soil. While Si is not essential for land plants, many plants, such as rice and grasses, have used Si to develop ...

Some transgenic crop plants have shown transgene silencing or decreased expression in offspring generations, so we have checked very carefully for this phenomenon in Darling chestnuts. This year we ...
