Advanced breeding: Making the most of every resource paid Bayer
In fact, the smell of freshly cut grass is not only a sign of spring, but a remarkable example of evolution. Your lawn is actually sending out a distress signal in the form of this unmistakable aroma. The grass assumes the lawnmower blade is an insect feeding on the plant and responds by releasing a scent that will attract beneficial predatory insects to deter the pest.In many regards, “plant breeding” is the study of special abilities like this.
Known as “systemic acquired resistance,” breeders study the immunity response of many generations of plants. In a sense, their immunology tells a story — breeders look deep into the genetics of these plants to learn how past generations have adapted to a pathogen. They then use this as a roadmap to help new varieties inherit this characteristic.Many plants have adapted by not giving a single inch to the competition.
