Here's the full story on the first gene-edited crops that will be grown on commercial farms in Europe, including details of the three precision-bred organisms from Rothamsted Research Nigel Halford & John Innes Centre Cristobal Uauy directdriller.com/the-power-of-d…

Direct seeded winter #camelina following dryland wheat farming in southern Idaho is tapping into early spring moisture and quickly filling in the rows. And what a view! #agtech #agriculture $YTEN

Very pleased to see my most recent application for field trials of GM camelina at Rothamsted Research has been approved by Defra UK for another 4 years. Over 60 genes and 10 different promoters to test the optimal combinations providing a sustainable terrestrial source of fish oils.

2024 GM camelina field trials successfully drilled at Rothamsted Research - our 11th consecutive year of GM field trials at Harpenden. Looking forward to seeing how some of our new lines perform, making high levels of EPA, DPA & DHA.

Rothamsted Research Grants Yield10 Bioscience an Exclusive, Global Commercial License to Advanced Technology for Producing Omega-3 Products in #Camelina finance.yahoo.com/news/rothamste… #agtech #agriculture $YTEN

📢Rothamsted agrees global commercial license with Yield10 Bioscience to produce Omega-3 Products in Camelina - will enable sustainable land-based production of omega-3 oils for use in aquafeed and human nutrition 🧬🌱 Full story 👇 rothamsted.ac.uk/news/rothamste…

With a new Labour Govt focused on wealth creation, Johnathan Napier says that after 30 years’ safe and effective use of GM crops around the world, it’s time for Britain to ditch the time-consuming, costly & restrictive GMO rules we inherited from the EU. scienceforsustainableagriculture.com/johnathannapie…

'We're interested in trying to make a plant source of #Omega3 fish oils to provide a #sustainable new source of these important nutrients.' We hear Johnathan Napier's thoughts on transformative plant #biotechnology 🎥 ow.ly/AAXu50SyEsT

Great to hear Johnathan Napier Johnathan Napier and Pete Eastmond in UNL from Rothamsted Research speaking at the International Camelina Conference #Camelina2024 on Novel approaches.

Another GM field trial at Rothamsted Research successfully completed! This is the eleventh consecutive year growing GM camelina, with a range of traits including omega-3s and ketocarotenoids. I still get a massive buzz from seeing our technology in the field - where it should be!

United Colours of Camelina - some of the different seed traits we have engineered over the last few years. These are in addition to the omega-3 fish oils and confirm Camelina as an excellent chassis for engineering useful & valuable traits. Yield10 Bioscience UK Research and Innovation

Proud to have been involved last week in the APPG Science & Technology in Agriculture's 'Agriscience Week in Westminster' event to showcase the gene-editing agricultural research being undertaken at Rothamsted Research and interact with policy makers on this important topic! #SupportingAgriscience

rothamsted.ac.uk/news/rothamste… Great that so many Rothamsted Research people could contribute to this event and speak with MPs and policy makers. And probably the first time gene edited seeds have been on display in Westminster! APPG Science & Technology in Agriculture George Freeman FRSA MP

Another GM camelina field trial successfully drilled this Saturday, under the azure skies of Suffolk. The Rothamsted Research Farm team of Mark, Samuil & Lewis did a great job in the hot & dusty conditions, but that's what testing in the real world is like. Thx also to Lihua Robertson

Diets+food systems are driving an ongoing epidemic of overweight/obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes & other diseases ⬇️Fixes are long overdue. See this straightforward 1-stop resource for decision-makers & concerned citizens from UF IFAS Solutions UF Medicine doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…🧵

Today our #GeneEdited camelina was sown at Rothamsted Research! Using CRISPR-Cas9, we have generated larger seeds by silencing genes in seed coat development. Given the recent secondary legislation for the #PrecisionBreeding Act, we are excited to see how our lines develop in the field!

It's absolutely essential that field trials be incorporated into plant syn bio/engineering biology DBTL cycles. Plants evolved to grow in the field, not in a white room with uniform conditions. The current absence of field evaluation is a system-level failure for research (IMHO).

In addition to our big 4000m2 GM camelina trial at Suffolk, last week we also sowed some smaller plots on the Rothamsted Research Farm in Herts. This trial has a range of traits & combines GE with GM approaches. Nice pics by Lihua Robertson of the team & site.

📢New paper: The oilseed Camelina sativa has been bio-engineered using plant-derived genes to produce high levels of astaxanthin — a valuable red antioxidant used to colour farmed salmon and shrimp. Research led by UNL PSI 🧬🌱🐟 Full story 👇 rothamsted.ac.uk/news/camelina-…

In a great collaboration led by Ed Cahoon we engineered Camelina to make astaxanthin, which is used in aquafeed diets (to give a pink hue). We used genes from the Adonis plant - picture below gives a clue why! Helping to make aquaculure more sustainable. rothamsted.ac.uk/news/camelina-…
