Revolutionizing Plant Gene Delivery with Next-Generation Biolistic Methods

Time: 1:01 pm
day: Pre-Conference Day

Details:

Effective gene delivery remains a significant challenge in plant biotechnology. The biolistic delivery system is a critical tool in plant genetic engineering, enabling the delivery of DNA, RNA, and proteins across diverse tissue types, genotypes, and species. Despite its broad application, challenges related to efficiency and consistency have persisted for decades. This workshop aims to provide researchers with a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underpinning current biolistic devices, while showcasing recent advancements in device engineering, materials preparation, and best practices that have demonstrated efficiency improvements ranging from four to thirty-fold.
