Scientists are cultivating glow-in-the-dark flowers by inserting DNA from bioluminescent mushrooms

Plants that ‘glow-in-the-dark’ have been developed by researchers using DNA taken from mushrooms – and they hope to be able to sell glowing roses in the future. A global team of researchers, funded by biotech startup Planta, found that the bioluminescence in some mushrooms is similar natural processes in plants. This allowed them to take … Read more
