By co-culturing E. coli and Baker's yeast, scientists have a way to manufacture large quantities of plant molecules for ...

Microbial factories provide a sustainable alternative to tree sap for producing elusive plant molecules, offering new ...

A new tool could make it easier to study scarce plant molecules. Researchers have developed so-called microbial cell factories -- using E. coli and yeast -- to produce a special class of plant ...

"By using this microbial cell factory, you can bypass extracting tons of xylem sap and thus destroying dozens of trees to discover the molecules important for the physiology of plants," said Li.
