Wageningen-based agbiotech KeyGene, in collaboration with Chiquita and Wageningen University, develops a banana plant resistant to both Fusarium tropical race 4 (TR4), a fungus capable of devastating entire plantations, and black sigatoka, a widespread leaf disease. The new variety, named Yelloway One, was produced by combining traditional crossbreeding techniques and modern DNA analysis technology. It will be sent to regions in the Philippines and Indonesia for field trials.

The Bezos Centre for Sustainable Protein opens at the National University of Singapore, backed by a $30 million grant from the Bezos Earth Fund. Focusing on regional preferences and addressing the challenges of feeding a growing global population, the center will explore microalgae and biomass fermentation, supported by complementary research into cultivated meat and plant-based technologies.

总部位于瓦赫宁根的农业生物技术公司 KeyGene 与 Chiquita 和瓦赫宁根大学合作，开发了一种对热带镰刀菌 4 （TR4） 和黑 sigatoka（一种广泛传播的叶病）具有抗性的香蕉植物。这个名为 Yelloway One 的新品种是通过结合传统杂交技术和现代 DNA 分析技术生产的。它将被送到菲律宾和印度尼西亚的地区进行田间试验。

贝索斯可持续蛋白质中心在新加坡国立大学成立，由贝索斯地球基金提供 3000 万美元的资助。该中心专注于区域偏好并解决养活不断增长的全球人口的挑战，将探索微藻和生物质发酵，并得到对培育肉和植物性技术的补充研究的支持。
