Many plants we eat today are a result of genetic modifications that would never occur in nature. Scientists have long been altering the genes of food crops, to boost food production and to make crops ...
Genetically modified purple tomatoes will be grown and sold in Australia within months after regulator approval. The Purple Bliss tomato was bred to include genes from the snapdragon flower to boost ...
The new aubergine-colored nightshade is a genetically modified variety of produce that gets its color from snapdragon genes.
Interviewer: A group of concerned scientists have raised the question: Should we be able to genetically engineer people? We'll talk about that next on The Scope. Announcer: Examining the latest ...
In the lab, researchers regularly use electricity to deposit medicine, DNA, bacteria or other substances into cells. This process is known as electroporation, and it works by creating temporary ...
As the FDA gets ready to vote on an application to bring the first genetically modified (GM) food animal — a salmon — to market, Healthland pauses to consider the social contribution of genetically ...
A new technique developed by researchers from Macquarie University and the California Institute of Technology described in Nature Communications on 13 August could allow scientists to more simply and ...
Researchers in the US have limited CRISPR experiments on the human genome, but for the first time, a US team has successfully edited a human embryo with CRISPR. Share on Facebook (opens in a new ...
Researchers have developed a method that lets them genetically modify each cell differently in animals. This allows them to study in a single experiment what used to require many animal experiments.
