By Yield10 Bioscience Inc | July 21, 2021 ADVERTISEMENT Yield10 Bioscience Inc., an agricultural bioscience company, on July 13 announced it has completed planting of its 2021 Field Test and Seed Scale Up program at all contracted sites in the U.S., Canada, and Argentina. Yield10’s 2021 Field Test program is designed to test several varieties of elite Camelina, as well as seed yield and oil content traits. In addition, Yield10 has contracted with a seed company for scale up of three Camelina varieties to enable larger scale plantings in 2022. With increasing focus on Camelina products, Yield10 is completing initial field testing of a promising CRISPR-edited trait which has shown up to a 4 percent increase in seed oil content plus a positive impact on seed yield in canola. Yield10 expects that harvest of seeds across the field tests will be completed in third quarter 2021, and that data will be received starting in fourth quarter 2021. ....

In-seed PHA bioproduction could lead to use as a co-product with oil and protein meal. By 1/21/2021 Yield10 Bioscience, Inc., an agricultural bioscience company, has announced successful field testing of prototype lines the oilseed camelina that have been programed to produce PHA bioplastics directly in seed. PHAs are natural polymers, prevalent in nature and fully biodegradable in the environment. Currently produced by fermentation of engineered microbes, PHA polymers also have applications in water treatment where they act as a zero-waste solution to nitrate pollution and as animal feed ingredients. Yield10 has a long history with and deep knowledge of PHAs, say company officials. Yield10 officials believe that direct production of PHA in seed as a co-product with oil and protein meal could potentially enable production of PHA bioplastics on an agricultural scale at costs in line with commodity vegetable oils to drive large-scale ado ....
Sowing the Seeds of Agricultural Biotechnology Sowing the Seeds of Agricultural Biotechnology According to Yield10 Bioscience, plant metabolism can be altered to enhance photosynthetic efficiency and carbon utilization, leading to better harvests January 8, 2021 This image, which was captured by a drone, shows Yield10 Bioscience’s Field Test Program, which is designed to evaluate several novel traits in Camelina and canola. Even as agricultural biotechnology (agbiotech) becomes more refined, it becomes more powerful. For example, relatively crude techniques such as transgenics are being supplanted by genome editing. Where transgenics blasts one organism’s genes into another organism’s genome, genome editing proceeds more delicately, altering a cell’s DNA directly. Genome editing can even be used to patiently reconfigure an organism’s metabolic networks, systematically improving crop quality while boosting yields. ....
