This news item shows scenes from a Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) laboratory, highlighting plant research, scientists at work, in vitro samples, and genetically modified plant cultures. NGTs encompass a range of techniques that modify an organism's genetic material. In the EU, all plants derived from NGTs are regulated under the same stringent rules as GMOs. NGTs hold the potential to enhance the sustainability and resilience of our food system by developing improved plant varieties that are climate resilient, pest resistant, and yield more while needing fewer fertilizers and pesticides.
