Are genetically engineered glowing plants the light source of the future? A group of scientists in San Francisco are betting on it.
Creating glow in the dark plants is a biotechnology project that uses genetic engineering to graft the ability to emit light onto some potted plants that, up until now, have relied on the sun’s light to produce energy and survive.
Antony Evans is the manager of the “Glowing Plant” project in San Francisco. He shares insights into the future of the technology.
