5 Sentence Summary
If you change one gene could give certain grasses more robust roots which could help speed up the growing process. These grasses are all importaint bio fuels. Before they grasses can be grown like lawn grass, the root system needs to be established. When the researchers disrupted UPB1 activity in the plant root, it started to grow alot faster than it did. When the UPB1 activity was increased, the root growgth slowed.
5 Sentence Opinion
I think that if we can incorporate this into like exportated crops and crops grown for food, we would probablly not have to worry about running out of food. If the food grows faster, we would have more food to have for us and to export helping the economy. It's also cool that we found out how to do this with biofuel grasses so we can have more fuel and lower the price of gas. I also think it is cool because we are learning new things that are good for us and we are moving forward so quickly. I think they should continue the research in this type of field.
