Producing high levels of valuable medicinal compounds in plants has long been limited by the difficulty of precisely controlling metabolic pathways without disrupting plant growth. A new study ...

UC Davis researchers engineered wheat that encourages soil bacteria to convert atmospheric nitrogen into plant-usable fertilizer. By boosting a natural compound in the plant, the wheat triggers ...

Bergkamp is partnering with industry veteran Jim Rawson, founder of the former Rawson Manufacturing, to reintroduce a screening plant designed for microsurfacing operations. The collaboration is not ...

Revvity's Dharmacon All-in-one lentiviral platform has expanded to include whole-genome library options for CRISPR knockout (CRISPRko), CRISPR interference (CRISPRi), and CRISPR activation (CRISPRa).

Selectable marker genes (SMGs) are essential for identifying transgenic plants but raise concerns regarding biosafety, regulatory compliance, and public acceptance. In this study, we used a ...

The obesity rate has more than doubled in the last 30 years, affecting more than one billion people worldwide. This prevalent condition is also linked to other metabolic disorders, including type 2 ...

Fighting off pathogens is a tour de force that must happen with speed and precision. A team of researchers at CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, and at ...

CRISPR-Cas9 technology has revolutionized gene editing, but biotech teams frequently find themselves bogged down by unexpectedly lengthy CRISPR screens. A seemingly straightforward screening process ...
