Life in our planet is highly dependent on plants as they are the primary source of food,
regulators of the atmosphere, and providers of a variety of materials. In this work, we review …

Plant biotechnologists seek to modify plants through genetic reprogramming, but our ability
to precisely control gene expression in plants is still limited. Here, we review transcription …

High strength, hardness, and fracture toughness are mechanical properties that are not
commonly associated with the fleshy body of a fungus. Here, we show with detailed …

To keep up with population growth, precision farming technologies must be implemented to
sustainably increase agricultural output. The impact of such technologies can be expanded …

At the intersection of synthetic biology and materials science, engineered living materials
(ELMs) exhibit unprecedented potential. Possessing unique “living” attributes, ELMs …

In the era of smart agriculture, the precise labeling and recording of growth information in
plants pose challenges for modern agricultural production. This study introduces strontium …

The emergence of living organisms as entities in HCI presents an opportunity to collaborate
with other beings through technology, align interspecies motives, and nurture greater …

Engineered living materials (ELMs) that incorporate living organisms and synthetic materials
enable advanced functional properties. Here, we seek to create plant cyborgs by combining …

The successful application of nanobiotechnology in biomedicine has greatly changed the
traditional way of diagnosis and treating of disease, and is promising for revolutionizing the …

The composition, structure, and functionality evolved by organisms to adapt to the
continuously changing earth environment exhibit the most efficient forms of interaction for …
