Scientists developed an all-in-one genome engineering platform called TRIM that allows for efficient, precise stacking of multiple desirable traits in crops through gene knockout, sequence editing, and chromosome engineering.

Researchers have decoded how plants produce mitraphylline, a rare compound with cancer-fighting potential, identifying two key enzymes involved in its creation.

A new study reveals that carnivorous pitcher plants and vespid wasps may have a mutualistic relationship, with plants providing nectar as a food source.
