Genetic engineering in roses is a cutting-edge scientific process that involves altering the plant’s DNA to change its ...

Next the researchers are working on soybeans and cowpeas; the latter is “a hugely important food-security crop in African ...

A recent study provides new insight into the genetic underpinnings of plant climate adaptation. By combining population genetics and global climate data, the researchers identified genetic ...

Hornworts, a group of small and often overlooked plants, may hold the key to revolutionizing agriculture and combating ...

Genetic engineering is the act of modifying the genetic makeup of an organism. Modifications can be generated by methods such as gene targeting, nuclear transplantation, transfection of synthetic ...

Cyanobacteria began contributing oxygen to Earth's mostly noxious atmosphere more than 2 billion years ago. The photosystem ...

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 ...

Instead of relying on cows to produce casein, the essential protein responsible for milk’s structure and cheese-making ...

More than two billion years ago, cyanobacteria started to produce oxygen in the primarily toxic atmosphere of Earth.

Africa is grappling with severe food insecurity in the wake of consecutive droughts, climate change, and ongoing conflicts, which are affecting millions across the continent.

The genome of the yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae was finally synthesized and for the first time ever scientists have created ...

The story of human evolution in ancient past is said to be written in our modern bodies. In his book “Descent of Man,” Charles Darwin talks about vestigial structures. A vestigial structure is a body ...
