metabolic-engineering
Metabolic engineering optimizes the genetic and regulatory processes within plant cells to increase production of specific desired molecules through their biochemical pathways. In plant science, this technique enables researchers to enhance crop productivity, improve nutritional profiles, and increase the yield of valuable compounds by strategically rewiring cellular metabolic networks. This approach has significant implications for developing more efficient crops and producing plant-derived compounds of agricultural and pharmaceutical value.
