Cross Kingdom Metabolic Engineering Paradigm Elevating Sustainable Protein Production
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Confronting the dual crisis of escalating global protein demand and unsustainable agriculture necessitates transformative solutions. Here, we pioneer evolutionary insights from maize nitrogen optimization via asparagine synthetase (ASNS) to rewire metabolism in Pichia pastoris.

BEHAVIOR OF LEGUMINOUS TREES INOCULATED WITH ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI
Ciência Florestal, 2009 The effect of the inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on the growth of two legume trees (Cassia leiandra and Chamaecrista desvauxii) was evaluated. The experimental design was completely randomized with four treatments and twenty-five repetitions.
