Two new studies on the environmental impact of transgenic American chestnut trees provide evidence that the trees have no harmful effects on germinating seeds, beneficial fungi, or larval frogs that ...

Here we describe a strategy for engineering transgenic plants with broad-spectrum resistance to bacterial and fungal phytopathogens. We expressed a synthetic gene encoding a N terminus-modified, ...

Darling transgenic American chestnuts have shown significantly enhanced tolerance to the chestnut blight fungus, and will soon be evaluated by federal regulatory agencies before potential public ...

Fast growing transgenic fish can revolutionize commercial fish farming and relieve the pressure on overexploited fish stocks. But what happens in the natural environment if transgenic fish escape?

The transgenic papaya 'SunUp' was developed in the 1990s and was widely publicized because of its ability to resist the papaya ringspot virus. A new study has now identified the genomic changes ...

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 ...

Sometimes I read a science paper and I just say "Holy cow, this is amazing." I don't have that reaction very often, but I did last week. Here's the story, summarized from the paper by Tobias Hirsch, ...

The University of Georgia has been at the forefront of research utilizing transgenic mice. These genetically modified mice are valuable in studying human diseases due to their genetic similarity to ...
