African scientists can take the lead in making genetic improvements to neglected native plants that can help diversify the world’s food supply, a new study suggests. Most of the food we eat is sourced from a miniscule fraction of total plant diversity. Just three major crops currently provide more than 40 percent of global calorie […]
