Researchers created SUSIBA2 rice
by introducing a
single gene from barley into common rice, resulting in a plant that can better feed its grains, stems and leaves while starving off methane -
producing microbes in the soil.
About Splicing Splicing is a normal mechanism that the cell uses in order to
produce many different, but closely related proteins from a
single gene by varying the processing of the RNA.
But human altruism can not possibly be controlled
by a
single gene, and different
genes that might
produce altruistic behavior probably interact, making the kin selection equation quite a bit more complicated.

produce high - starch rice with virtually no methane emissions
by introducing a
single gene of barley to a common strain of rice.
