According to the US MSNBC website, imagine that your home’s lawn is evergreen and you don’t need to trim with a lawn mower. This idea may sound like a fantasy, but it is the goal of a new research project at the Salk Institute for Biological Research in the United States.
Scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Research say they have found a biological mechanism to control the height of plants. It is well known that ingesting steroids is not good for athletes. But scientists have discovered that treating plants with steroids may improve the essential characteristics of plants, increase crop yields, and produce seed. Therefore, their research will lead to the birth of more robust, higher-yielding rice, wheat, and bean crops, and it will also produce grass that requires almost no trimming.
Joanne Jerry is a professor at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and is currently doing research at the Salk Institute for Biological Research. She said that "by controlling the steroid hormone levels in plants, I think we can regulate the height and yield of plants." The "Nature" magazine published last week published details of the study.
Qiao Rui and her colleague Gregory Watt conducted in-depth research on the plant steroid hormone brassinolide. They found through research that this hormone is a key factor in controlling the growth of plants. Jorie explained that "without them, the plants are gnomes that grow up, and they can't breed offspring." Hormones control cell development and are the command and control system for plant growth. Changing the chain of command will allow plants to grow in a specific way.
"We may be able to reduce the length of the grass by reducing the brassinosteroid content in the plant, or we can increase the yield of crops by increasing the brassinosteroid content in the plant seeds."
For centuries, humans have been controlling the height or other characteristics of plants by selecting for breeding. The control of hormones is a modern practice, and humans will change the characteristics of plants according to their needs. Maybe it will not take long to cultivate the grass that will not be trimmed and evergreen, and people will be relieved from the annoying work of cutting grass.
