Researchers have mapped the DNA genome of the Coffee arabica plant, which is the only variety grown in Australia. It means scientists have figured out which genes create each coffee trait.

Scientists realized that they could edit and disrupt gene function in eukaryotes by engineering customizable short guide RNA to direct the enzymes to introduce cuts at specific points in the genome.

the family Schisandraceae sensu stricto, consisting of Schisandra and Kadsura, totalling several dozen species, which are found in tropical to temperate ...
