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 ...

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 ...

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.

This study reveals that water availability at the wound determines plant regeneration outcomes. High water availability induces root regeneration whereas low water availability triggers callus ...

Osaka, Japan – Plants have an impressive ability to regenerate damaged tissues, but how they do it is not fully understood. Now, researchers from Japan have discovered the mechanisms involved in this ...

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. Publishing November 6 in the Cell Press ...

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

MicroRNA396 has been identified as a negative regulator of shoot regeneration in tomatoes, unlocking possibilities for plant genetic engineering. Researchers from the Korea Research Institute of ...

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 ...
