When they removed CAX gene from plants using genetic engineering, the plants were more tolerant to low-oxygen stress (anoxia) and flooding than when the gene was active. Next, the researchers ...

The field of plant biotechnology is undergoing a profound transformation. The rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI) ...

An example is genetically engineered papaya plants in Hawaii, which are resistant to papaya ringspot virus. In the future researchers are hoping to use genetic engineering to be able to overcome ...

“Refining the technology will mean that researchers can tweak plant gene expression rather than cutting or inserting new bits of DNA,” explains Matsumura. This form of genetic ...

Risks of genetic engineering: Transfer of the selected gene into other species. What benefits one plant may harm another. Some people believe it is not ethical to interfere with nature in this way.

But a recent comprehensive scientific review suggests that biotechnological tools, such as genetic engineering ... cannabinoids will be produced by a plant. While genetics plays some role ...
