Cibus和AgVayā伙伴将基因编辑的大米带给印度, Cibus and AgVayā partner to bring gene-edited rice to India, boosting yields and climate resilience.

一家美国Agtech公司Cibus与印度咨询公司AgVayā合作,向印度大米部门引进基因编辑技术,目的是加速开发高产、耐气候的稻米品种。 Cibus, a U.S. agtech company, has partnered with Indian advisory firm AgVayā to introduce gene-editing technologies to India’s rice sector, aiming to accelerate development of high-yield, climate-resilient rice varieties. 合作目标是缩短育种时限,减少杀虫剂的使用,提高可持续性,支持印度作为世界第一大米出口国的作用。 The collaboration targets shorter breeding timelines, reduced pesticide use, and improved sustainability, supporting India’s role as the world’s top rice exporter. Cibus将与当地种子公司、研究人员和政府利益攸关方合作,利用其精确基因编辑平台,将除草剂耐受性等特性纳入区域稻米品种。 Working with local seed companies, researchers, and government stakeholders, Cibus will integrate traits like herbicide tolerance into regional rice strains using its precision gene-editing platform. 该倡议遵循拉丁美洲的一个类似项目,反映了Cibus在全球促进可持续作物创新的推动。 The initiative follows a similar project in Latin America and reflects Cibus’ global push for sustainable crop innovation.
