These mutations improve biocontainment, transformation stability, and overall performance in genetic engineering of plants. Complementing the strains, researchers also developed new plasmids and a ...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in plant gene regulation, with their biogenesis involving complex processes. Fine-tuning miRNAs is a powerful biotechnology strategy that can improve plant ...

However, traditional gene delivery methods, such as Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and gene guns, are often slow, inefficient, and can damage plant tissues. These highlight the need for more ...

The ancient trick of grafting one plant onto another could find a very modern use – enabling gene editing of plants that are very difficult or impossible to edit by other means. “It is still at the ...
