The concept of growing plants for human health and general well-being, rather than for consumption as food alone, is changing people's perception of plant biotechnology and synthetic biology. Resurrecting the long-forgotten connection between plants and health has launched a new generation of botanica...
More preciseirrigation can save up to 50 percent of the water cost andincrease the production."In times when more and more areas are exposed todrought due to climate change, while human population andconsumption keep increasing, effective water use becomes evenmore important for food security,” ...
flower bed has been brought into bloom thanks to more than a few drops of ‘liquid gold’. However, it is normally not recommended to use urine as a fertiliser for plants intended for human consumption. One of the challenges in this project is to find out how we can use this resource ...
Moreover, further clinical research on the oral administration of SOD in dietary fiber will enable the development of a new health supplement without side effects for human consumption. Underutilized plants, vegetables, and fruits could serve as the natural source of SOD and soluble dietary fibers....
