For those crops of which the green parts (leaves, stems) are harvested, the yield of green biomass is the major value driver. For those crops of which the green parts (leaves, stems) are harvested such as sugarcane or poplar trees, the yield of green biomass is the major value driver.
CropDesign is developing transgenes that confer enhanced green biomass. These transgenes are discovered through screening of large numbers of transgenes for their effect on green biomass production.
The benefits of CropDesign's technologies for green biomass enhancement include:
- quantum boost of biomass production
- identification of major green biomass enhancing parameters
