Groundbreaking Discovery Uncovers How Plants Can Be Genetically Tuned to Fight Disease from Within
In a major scientific leap forward, researchers have decoded a vital internal mechanism that could allow plants to naturally strengthen their immune systems. This advancement centers on a protein enzyme called metacaspase 9 (MC9), a molecular switch that controls how plants respond to infection, injury, and other stressors. For decades, scientists have known that plants…
