Electroporation of zygotes represents a rapid alternative to the elaborate pronuclear injection procedure for CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing in mice.However, current protocols for Bath Caddy electroporation either require the investment in specialized electroporators or corrosive pre-treatment of zygotes which compromises embryo viability.Here
Genebanks are a rich source of genetic variation.Most of this variation is absent in breeding programs but may be useful for further crop plant improvement.However, the lack of phenotypic information forms a major obstacle for the educated choice of genebank accessions for research and breeding.A promising approach to fill this information gap is t

The abundance of cellulosic wastes make them attractive source of energy for producing electricity in microbial fuel cells (MFCs).However, electricity production from cellulose requires obligate anaerobes that can degrade cellulose and transfer electrons to the electrode (exoelectrogens), and thus most previous MFC studies have been conducted using
