A group of researchers has discovered a new approach to cereal plant breeding that takes into account the internal 'calculator' of plant seeds that makes them continuously reorganize themselves ...

Securing plant production is a global task. Using a combination of new molecular and statistical methods, a research team was able to show that material from gene banks can be used to improve traits ...

For centuries, farmers have bred plants for traits such as taste, resilience and yield. The development of Next-Generation Sequencing, a visual technology, utilizing fluorescence imaging to explore ...

Conventional plant regeneration techniques require the application of plant growth regulators, like hormones, which can be species-specific and laborious. In a new study, researchers have developed a ...

This comprehensive book covers the underlying scientific principles, state of the art technologies and methodologies of plant mutagenesis. It covers historical development and commonly used ...

AI-driven plant breeding accelerates trait identification for climate adaptation and food security, but risks inequality and environmental harm. Democratic control of these technologies are vital for ...
