The EU should allow gene editing to make organic farming more sustainable, researchers say

To achieve the European Green Deal’s goal of 25% organic agriculture by 2030, researchers argue that new genomic techniques (NGTs) should be allowed without pre-market authorization in organic as well as conventional food production. NGTs — also known as gene editing- — are classified under the umbrella of GMOs, but they involve more subtle genetic […]

Ecdysone regulates phagocytic cell fate of epithelial cells in developing Drosophila eggs

Acquisition of nonprofessional phagocytic cell fate plays an important role in sculpting functional metazoan organs and maintaining overall tissue homeostasis. Though physiologically highly relevant, how the normal epithelial cells acquire phagocytic fate is still mostly unclear. We have employed the Drosophila ovary model to demonstrate that the classical ecdysone signaling in the somatic epithelial follicle […]
