Bacteria – Plant Interaction: Transgenic Roots for Human Health

Mechanism of Sugar Signaling in Plants

Scientists have discovered how a sugar-sensing protein, KIN10, controls plant growth and oil production by acting as a molecular switch. When sugar levels are high, KIN10 activates pathways for growth and oil production. Understanding this mechanism could help engineer plants for increased oil production, potentially benefiting biofuel development.

Natural GM crops: grasses take evolutionary shortcut by borrowing genes from their neighbours

Grasses transfer genes from their neighbours in the same way genetically modified crops are made, a new study has revealed.
