Jan 6, 2022 · Genetically Modified Characteristics in Potato. Genetic modification has been highly successful in potato with commercialization of improved varieties for quantitative traits, such as productivity, and qualitative traits, such as disease resistance and nutritional quality. 73 The strategies utilized include both trans-genesis and cis-genesis ...

Oct 3, 2017 · Starting in the 1980s, Jeffrey Hall, Michael Rosbash and Michael Young isolated a gene in fruit flies, or Drosophila melanogaster, that controlled a protein’s daily creation and destruction. By studying the molecules that regulate this gene, the team identified the genetic mechanisms of the circadian clock.
