丹麦和瑞典科学家最近发现,一种帮助农作物抵御真菌感染的基因,同样有助于农作物吸收有毒的亚砷酸盐。这一成果有望应用于开发不吸收砷的转基因农作物,降低人们因饮食而导致慢性砷中毒的几率。据英国科学促进会主办的“阿尔法伽利略”科学新闻网站日前报道,这种基因能够控制农 Recently, Danish and Swedish scientists have found that a gene that helps crops fight fungal infections also helps crops absorb toxic arsenite. This result is expected to be applied to the development of genetically modified crops that do not absorb arsenic, reducing the risk of chronic arsenic poisoning caused by diet. According to the science news website Alfa Galileo hosted by the British Council for the Advancement of Science, this gene can control agriculture
