Crop Tolerance to Herbicides through Artificial Evolution

Crop Tolerance to Herbicides through Artificial Evolution

The domestication of crops is a directed evolutionary process that has lasted for most of human history. It has allocated naturally occurring mutations that encode traits for higher production, better taste, and convenient cultivation. These traits can better manage...
