Scientists have developed a new model to predict the impact of enhancing biological plant processes, such as photosynthesis, on large-scale crop yields. According to the new study, published on 8
Scientists have found a way to increase crop production by up to 47% by speeding up a process in plant metabolism called photorespiration. The findings could help improve crop resilience
Using genetic engineering technology, scientists have found a way to make mice “completely resistant” to becoming obese, even when given a high-fat diet. The researchers say their discovery could open
Scientists believe they have found a way make mosquitoes resistant to the malaria parasite. Using new CRISPR/Cas9 technology, researchers were able to remove a gene in mosquitoes that makes them
A team of researchers in Italy found that not only do genetically modified crops, or GMOs, improve crop yields, but they also are beneficial to health. Published online in Scientific Reports,
