A new platform for improving crops by developing novel traits and implementing them rapidly
A UK SME has developed a crop improvement platform for use on a wide range of species. The platform brings together AI with new genome editing biotechnologies to discover and introduce new traits into crops rapidly. Current projects include developing tomatoes that are better for harvest and transport as well as non-sweetening potato varieties. Crop breeders, seed producers and agri industry are sought for commercial agreements with technical assistance, followed by licensing.
