Indianapolis — The first harvest of genetically modified salmon began in late May after the pandemic delayed the sale of the first such modified animals allowed for human consumption in the United States. Designed by biotechnology company AquaBounty Technologies Inc., tonnage of salmon heads to restaurants and on-the-go dining services along the Midwest and East …

Gene Editing Seeds With CRISPR Is Transforming Agricultural Biotechnology
One of the main focuses of agricultural biotechnology is to feed a hungry world in a more sustainable way. Many current farming methods are inefficient because they require large amounts of water, fertilizer and pesticides. Agricultural biotech is trying to solve these problems at the seed level.

Engineering crops of the future: CRISPR approaches to develop climate-resilient and disease-resistant plants
To meet increasing global food demand, breeders and scientists aim to improve the yield and quality of major food crops. Plant diseases threaten food security and are expected to increase because of climate change. CRISPR genome-editing technology opens new opportunities to engineer disease resistance traits. With precise genome engineering and transgene-free applications, CRISPR is expected to resolve the major challenges to crop improvement. Here, we discuss the latest developments in CRISPR technologies for engineering resistance to viruses, bacteria, fungi, and pests. We conclude by highlighting current concerns and gaps in technology, as well as outstanding questions for future research.
