Nature
Industrial wastewater, petroleum pollution and plastic contamination are significant threats to global marine biosecurity because of their toxic, mutagenic and persistent nature1. The use of microorganisms in bioremediation has been constrained by the complexity of organic pollutants and limited tolerance to saline stress2. In this study, we used synthetic biology to engineer Vibrio natriegens into a strain capable of bioremediating complex organic pollutants in saline wastewater and soils. The competence master regulator gene tfoX was inserted into chromosome 1 of the V. natriegens strain Vmax and overexpressed to enhance DNA uptake and integration. Degradation gene clusters were chemically synthesized and assembled in yeast. We developed a genome engineering method (iterative natural transformation based on Vmax with amplified tfoX effect) to transfer five gene clusters (43 kb total) into Vmax. The engineered strain has the ability to bioremediate five organic pollutants (biphenyl, phenol, naphthalene, dibenzofuran and toluene) covering a broad substrate range, from monocyclic to multicyclic compounds, in industrial wastewater samples from a chlor–alkali plant and a petroleum refinery.

seedworld
BioLumic, a 2025 runner-up in the Seed World Global Innovation Showdown, has created a groundbreaking seed trait platform powered by light. Its technology, which activates traits using short, targeted bursts of UV and visible light, is not only transforming how seeds grow — it’s transforming how seed companies think about innovation. “We’re controlling gene expression with light,” Wargent explains. “We’re activating entire pathways that already exist in the plant, and we’re doing it instantly. There’s no gene editing, no chemicals, and no regulatory delay.” This approach, known as xTrait™ (short for Genetic Expression Trait) technology, taps into photomorphogenesis — plants’ natural response to light that drives development throughout the lifecycle. With Light Signal Recipes™, BioLumic uses brief, precise combinations of UV light as a natural programming language for plants that can boost root mass, increase yield, improve plant immunity and even reduce methane emissions in livestock feed crops. These treatments don’t alter DNA. Instead, they awaken what’s already there.
[前沿资讯 ] Harnessing the Power of Pollen Quality for Improved Seed Production and Breeding 进入全文
seedworld
Enter Amphasys, a pioneering company at the forefront of agricultural innovation. Their cutting-edge technology is revolutionizing how breeders and seed producers assess pollen quality, offering a fast, easy-to-use tool that delivers precision insights. This capability is significant, especially as the agricultural landscape grows increasingly competitive and complex. High-quality pollen is indispensable for effective pollination and achieving optimal seed sets. When it comes to hybrid breeding — often a more expensive and resource-intensive endeavor — pollen health can make or break production outcomes. The reality is that abiotic stressors can wreak havoc on pollen viability; even minor disruptions can hinder the crucial journey from anther to stigma. This is where Amphasys’ technology becomes invaluable, providing data that allows breeders to make informed choices about optimizing crop placement and fine-tuning female-to-male ratios. By determining the viability threshold for full seed set, Amphasys empowers seed producers to develop precise production patterns, particularly crucial for managing low-performing pollinators. Furthermore, the technology supports the development of effective storage protocols, ensuring that pollen maintains its viability for as long as necessary. The implications of these advancements are far-reaching. As growers leverage detailed insights into pollen characteristics, they can significantly enhance their decision-making processes, leading to improved seed yields and crop performance. In an era where food security looms as a critical challenge, this knowledge transforms how the agricultural sector approaches production — making it more efficient, sustainable, and responsive to environmental demands.
[前沿资讯 ] The Future of Potatoes: True Seeds, Hybrid Breeding and a New Commercial Era 进入全文
seedworld
Today, Solynta is entering a bold new chapter: moving from innovation to implementation, from research to real-world impact. Solynta has developed a proprietary hybrid breeding platform that brings precision, speed, and resilience to potato cultivation. Its hybrid TPS varieties offer consistent performance, higher yields, and robust resistance to key threats like late blight, drought, and heat. This level of genetic control has long been common in crops like corn and tomatoes — but achieving it in potatoes is a significant scientific milestone. Now, with a strong foundation of elite parental lines and a growing pipeline of hybrids, Solynta is shifting gears to commercialize its innovations at scale. We have identified several essential resistance genes, and incorporated those in our breeding activities,” said Edwin van der Vossen, Solynta head of research & development. “Many of our newest NON-GMO varieties now have a very high tolerance to late blight. Currently, we are continuing to focus on new traits that will provide additional beneficial characteristics to the future potato varieties. That is the big advantage of our non-GMO hybrid potato breeding technology: we can quickly breed new varieties, very focused and data-driven. Our focus will be on developing new varieties, that are tailored to specific regional climatical zones and fit the market demands”.Peter Poortinga, Solynta CEO. Photo: Solynta. TPS also offers flexibility in how it’s used: direct sowing, transplanting seedlings, or replanting harvested tubers, depending on local needs. This adaptability makes Solynta’s technology suitable for a wide range of environments — from large-scale commercial operations to smallholder farms.

Nature Reviews Bioengineering
Proteins are essential components in synthetic biology, providing multiple functions at the nanoscale. Newly developed protein optimization and design tools allow the generation of proteins with desired properties, offering new opportunities for the engineering of protein-based biological systems. In this Review, we explore how bottom-up synthetic biology, with its aim to construct synthetic cells, can use these tools to devise complex biological functions and functional systems from scratch. We provide an overview of current capabilities in protein optimization, de novo protein design and iterative system optimization, and discuss their potential in synthetic cell science with regard to standardization, the generation of missing functionality and integration. We conclude with the outline of an integrated pipeline that combines protein engineering, automated synthetic cell generation and active learning, which might allow the design of entirely new biological systems that do not rely on naturally evolved protein components.
