Projects

Final projects:

  • SECTION 1: ABSTRACT Provide a concise, self-contained summary of your project (minimum 150 words). The abstract should allow a reader to understand the purpose, approach, and expected outcomes of the work without referring to other sections. By selectively changing present genes and adding new ones to Zea Mays, the common maize, it may be able to redirect its energy from producing fruit to synthesizing masses of phyto-volatiles from phosphorous compounds from the soil, that may improve the activity of the whole crop field by increasing yield due to less pest induced stress, and reduce the need for dangerous, polluting chemicals. Furthermore, if it works accordingly, it may redirect farmer’s usage from nitrogen rich fertilizers that, not only are polluting the soil, having the industry dependent on expensive environmentally hazardous practices, to all purpose fertilizer, even manure, that reestablishes natural healthy ratios for soil and important, useful micro-life inside it.
