Plant organelles are central to cellular function, energy metabolism, and environmental adaptation. Among them, chloroplasts and mitochondria are particularly critical for photosynthesis, respiration, and inter-organelle signaling. Beyond their metabolic roles, plant organelles participate in stress sensing, protein localization, and regulation of gene expression, highlighting their importance...
Plant genetic transformation is a foundational technique in modern plant biotechnology, enabling functional genomics studies, crop improvement, and precise genome editing using tools such as CRISPR/Cas9. Despite decades of advancement, many challenges remain that can limit transformation efficiency, stability, and reproducibility. Here, we outline the most common problems encountered in plant...
Introduction to Artificial Seeds
Artificial seeds are synthetic plant propagules created to mimic natural seeds. Unlike conventional seeds, they contain living plant tissues—such as somatic embryos or shoot buds—encapsulated in a protective coating. This technology enables large-scale propagation of plants that are difficult to grow from seeds, ensures uniformity, and allows...
Lifeasible, a biotechnology company focused on agricultural and plant sciences, announced an update to its plant genetic transformation service this week. The expanded service aims to provide researchers and breeders with more versatile and efficient options for introducing genes into plants, a critical step in developing new crop varieties and understanding plant biology.
