"Before this discovery, scientists had more or less determined the minimum amount of light needed for organisms to take advantage of photosynthesis. However, no living organism has even come close to reaching that minimum level." ☀️👇 thedebrief.org/life-in-the-ab…
New paper from the PhotoBoost team @LancsPhotosynth exploring how Rubisco activity interacts with chloroplast metabolites. 👏 portlandpress.com/biochemj/artic…
📣NEWS: Italy launches 1st field trial for gene-edited crops 🌾🧬 Risotto rice with resistance against blast disease A big leap for EU biotech research resulting from a fruitful collaboration between @vittoriabr @fornaralab @ThorstenLangner @KamounLab tsl.ac.uk/news/gene-edit…
Fantastic week at @CEACadarache in France discussing a roadmap to improved photosynthesis in Europe with @photosynth_2030 and @gain4crops! 🌱☀️
Scientists from the Hutton and @dundeeuni Division of Plant Sciences will be showcasing some of our pioneering science at Plant Power Day this Saturday! Join us and celebrate the wonder of plants and recognise their immense importance #plantday 🍃 More: bit.ly/3QPqVyJ
"Among the most advanced is gene edited low-acrylamide wheat, which has just finished year two of field trials in England, becoming the first Crispr/CAS9 gene edited wheat in European trials." 👇 fwi.co.uk/machinery/tech…
📢#PlantSciJobs opportunity: Plant Physiologist w/ @ecarmosilva @LancsUniLEC . Elizabete is recruiting a postdoc researcher for the Delivering Sustainable Wheat project, if interested & at #monogram24 catch Elizabete or Carmen for a chat, apps close May 9 wp.me/p9L9PV-ik
"Last year, Kenyan authorities gave Runo and his collaborators permission to grow the gene-edited seeds... Striga is not a problem in wealthier regions — meaning that large, multinational corporations have little incentive to develop solutions for it." 👇 nature.com/articles/d4158…
We recently set out to answer two questions: why improve photosynthesis and how can it be done? Our article "How scientists are helping plants get the most out of photosynthesis" is out today with @ConversationUK. 👇
Rubisco is essential for photosynthesis - but how is it regulated in crop plants? PhotoBoost and @photosynth_2030 researchers have just published a new paper exploring exactly this question! Well done @amaraljsc, @anaklobo and @ecarmosilva. 🌱☀️ nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…
Potato is one of the most important foods in the world - by understanding the best ways to optimise photosynthesis, we can improve it. PhotoBoost colleagues have just published a paper explaining how: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/tp… Well done @svijayakumar32 and team! 🌱☀️
There is still time to register for the upcoming Photosynthesis 2030+ webinar happening this Tuesday. capitalise.eu/webinars/ The easy way to learn! #photosynthesis #Rubisco @Thepallavisingh @amaraljsc
Great to have the first face-to-face meeting of the @PhotoBoost3 project here in Lleida!
The PhotoBoost project was recently featured in @FarmersWeekly - thanks for the informative piece @emmagillbard! 🌱☀️ fwi.co.uk/arable/potatoe…
Really productive first day Roadmapping for Future crops at our Capitalise Stakeholder workshop. Great to have @gain4crops @PhotoBoost3 @EuroseedsEU @WURplant and many more contributing. #future_proof_crops
