plant nutrition: Genome modification and natural diversity
with companies: Plastomics, Pathway Biologic, and Pivot Bio
In this company presentation block, we showcase both the tools of biology for gene modification and the mining of naturally-occurring microbes. In keeping with the 2018 Showcase theme of plant nutrition and nutritive capacity, these three companies have different approaches to improving plant performance and nutrition. They address the genome of crop plants and the microbial science associated with the physiology of plants.
