Bacillus strain genetic mutants: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Wild-type microbial yields are insufficient for industrial scale, leading to high production costs. Targeted genetic modification of Bacillus species optimizes metabolic pathways to increase secondary metabolite output.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Bacillus strain genetic mutants?

Insufficient crop yield potential

(7)evidences

Agricultural yields are limited by the destructive impact of insect pests on cultivated plants. Mitigating this damage prevents crop loss and ensures food security.
