Plant biologists have developed a method for growing transgenic and gene-edited plants that cuts the slow and expensive process down from months to weeks. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest ...

Conventional plant regeneration approaches by cell culture require the external application of plant growth regulators, including hormones. However, optimizing culture conditions can be laborious. Now ...

Synthetic seed technology represents a significant biotechnological advancement in plant science, enabling the encapsulation of explants—such as nodal segments, shoot tips or embryos—in a gelling ...

Biotechnological innovation meets horticulture as researchers unveil a cutting-edge genome editing protocol for grapes. This novel technique, integrating protoplast culture with CRISPR-Cas9, ...

A new nanotube-based RNA delivery system boosts plant regeneration by switching off a molecule that blocks shoot growth, without changing the plant's DNA. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Plant biotechnology has ...

Researchers have successfully uncovered the molecular mechanisms by which bacterial cellulose patches stimulate the regeneration of plant wounds. The regeneration process requires the activation of ...

An efficient transformation protocol was developed for Eucalyptus tereticornis Sm. using cotyledon and hypocotyl explants. Precultured cotyledon and hypocotyl explants were cocultured with ...

Plants regenerate using pluripotent callus tissues and initiating the de novo formation of shoot apical meristem (SAM). However, the mechanisms governing the efficiency of regeneration are unclear.

Peptide REF1 is a local wound signal promoting plant regeneration. Credit: IGDB In a study published in Cell on May 22, researchers led by Prof. Li Chuanyou from the Institute of Genetics and ...
