Despite the regulatory and funding roadblocks, Murray and fellow researcher Elizabeth Maga continue to work on a line of genetically engineered goats, which carry a human gene that produces elevated ...

Biotechnology used in agricultural science greatly affects our lives — from nurturing our bodies and feeding our families to mitigating the effects of climate change. Just one handful of healthy soil ...

Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for plant growth, but the overuse of synthetic nitrogen fertilizers in agriculture is not sustainable. In a review article publishing in the journal Trends in ...

Genetic engineering is moving faster than almost any other scientific field. New tools now allow researchers to edit DNA with a level of precision that was once unimaginable. These advances promise ...

Over millennia, there has been a seamless continuum of technologies for genetic modification of plants, animals, and microorganisms, with progressive improvements in precision and predictability – a ...

The global biotechnology market is expected to grow at a rate of 13-15% over the next five years. Key drivers of this growth ...

One March morning, more than eighty years after his family first started growing oranges in DeLeon Springs, Steve Crump stood on the same land, shaking his head in frustration. The fourth-generation ...

Transgenic organisms are living beings whose genetic material has been artificially modified by introducing genes from another species. This process, known as transgenesis, allows for the transfer of ...

We’ve seen gene-editing in works of fiction make wonders for humans and the environment, from creating “healing factors” in humans, to transforming agriculture for greater sustainability. Genetic ...

The Gene Synthesis Market has emerged as one of the most transformative segments within modern biotechnology, driven by rapid ...
