Researchers from Tel Aviv University have developed a genetic editing method tailored to crop plants, which has influenced various traits in tomato plants, including the taste and shape of the fruit.

Researchers at Colorado State University have developed a tool that can be used to switch a plant's key genetic traits on or off at will. The breakthrough was recently published in ACS Synthetic ...

The ongoing genetic improvement of wheat yield and traits has revolutionised modern agriculture by enhancing grain productivity and resilience. Advances in genomics, marker-assisted selection and gene ...
