Glowing plants for the home will soon become a reality Bashny.Net

Fans of the glowing forest of Pandora from "Avatar" can rejoice: scientists have created bioluminescent plants that will glow in the dark. The plants are not yet released, but the seeds of rezhevichi tal will be available in the autumn on the website of the company Glowing Plant.



Glowing plant created by synthetic compounds genes rezhevichi tal and a bioluminescent bacteria Vibrio fischeri. To hold a "crossing", gramotritsatelnyh the scientists used the bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens. They are experimenting with 1,500 different DNA sequences to find the perfect option.
If companies did manage to market bioengineering, it will have the biggest sale in this area, analysts predict. However, opponents of genetic engineering are on the alert and several times has violated the activities of the Glowing Plant.
