John Innes Centre scientists have found that plants may cluster the genes needed to make defence chemicals. Their findings may provide a way to discover new natural plant products of use as drugs, herbicides or crop protectants. Using a gene cluster that makes an antifungal compound in oats as a template, they uncovered a previously unknown gene...

Heart attacks are commonly caused by blood clots formed of blood platelets. A new research suggests that it should be possible to create a clot-busting pill that targets a receptor on the blood cells’ surface, something that high-risk patients could take at the first sign of chest pain. One of the scientists from the research team at Rockefeller...

In the past, roses were simply yellow, red or white. Blue roses could not exist: these plants are unable to produce blue pigments naturally. By means of gene technology, this goal has been reached. This is not all: in labs around the world, designer cut flowers are being created with exceptional colours, with prolonged shelf-life, with added...
