Novel Genome-Editing Approaches for Developing Non-GM Crops for Sustainable Improvement and the Mitigation of Climate Changes por Naglaa A, Abdallah, Hamwieh, Aladdin, Baum, Michael

“…A number of countries, including the United States, Japan, India, and Australia, classify genome-edited crops that lack transgenes or foreign deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) as non-genetically modified (non-GM) and thereby exclude them from regulations governing genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Agrobacterium-mediated or biolistic transformations are often employed methods for introducing the CRISPR components into the plant genome. …”

Mechanisms behind high N2O emissions from livestock enclosures in Kenya revealed by dual-isotope and functional gene analyses por Xiantao Fang, Harris, S.J., Leitner, Sonja, Butterbach-Bahl, Klaus, Conz, R.F., Merbold, Lutz, Dannenmann, M., Oyugi, A., Shuwei Liu, Jianwen Zou, Six, Johan, Barthel, M.

“…Thus, by combining dual-isotope and functional gene analysis, we were able to identify source processes that govern N2O emissions from these systems. More generally, making use of the manure by spreading it in the vicinity of the bomas or on dedicated forage plots could provide a win-win by enhancing savanna productivity while simultaneously mitigating GHG emissions.…”
