Polygenomic Plants
Biotechnology Advantages
A breakthrough recent discovery of how to create a stable “polyploid” genome in woody plants. Polyploidy means having extra or duplicate sets of chromosomes in the nucleus of every cell in an organism, including plants. Polyploidy occurs in Nature and is not a GMO type of trans-genetic breeding.
Polyploid plants grow much faster and give higher yields because they have a more efficient process of photosynthesis that captures more carbon from the atmosphere.
Polyploids are naturally occurring instances, whereby plants add extra unchanged copies of DNA (genomes) to their cell structure. It is generally believed that this response has driven the majority of plant evolution on Earth since the first, simple photosynthetic organisms appeared.
Through our biotechnology partners we are able to very significantly enhance the performance of plants across a wide range of parameters
