🚀 Engineering Wheat for Human Health: A New Frontier in Crop Biotechnology 🌾💊 A recent study published in Cell (Plant-Based Production of Coenzyme Q10, Volume 188, Issue 4, 2025, Pages 789-803) highlights the potential of engineering plants to produce Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a powerful antioxidant essential for human health. CoQ10 plays a crucial role in cellular energy production, heart health, and neuroprotection, and its deficiency has been linked to aging, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders. This research demonstrates how plants can be engineered to produce CoQ10, paving the way for sustainable and scalable bioproduction. However, conventional plant transformation methods for gene editing remain slow and inefficient, limiting mainly to old wheat varieties. At Novin AgriTech, we are addressing this challenge with our genotype-independent, tissue culture-free wheat transformation technology. Our approach enables faster, more efficient genetic modifications in elite wheat varieties, making it possible to produce CoQ10 and other valuable compounds in wheat at scale. The future of agriculture isn’t just about growing food, it’s also about enhancing human health. 🌍✨ #GeneEditing #SyntheticBiology #CoQ10 #HumanHealth #PlantBiotechnology #AgricultureInnovation #NovinAgriTech #FutureOfFood #SustainableBioproduction #AntiAging

🌾 Honoring Norman Borlaug: The Father of the Green Revolution 🌍 Few scientists can claim to have saved a billion lives, but Norman Borlaug’s legacy reminds us of the transformative power of innovation in agriculture. Faced with booming populations and global hunger, he developed high-yield, disease-resistant wheat and modernized farming practices, ushering in the Green Revolution and changing the world forever. At Novin AgriTech, we’re inspired by Borlaug’s vision to combine science and innovation to tackle humanity’s greatest challenges. With our genotype-independent, tissue culture-free wheat transformation platform, we aim to build on his legacy, developing crops that are higher yielding, climate-resilient, and accessible to farmers worldwide. We know collaboration drives change. Let’s work together to create the next agricultural revolution and ensure a food-secure future for all. 🌱🤝✨ #InnovationInAgriculture #NormanBorlaug #GreenRevolution #FoodSecurity #SustainableFarming #CropScience #AgTech #GeneEditing #FutureOfFarming #GlobalHunger #Collaboration

🌾 Unlocking Wheat’s Potential: A New Era for Health At Novin AgriTech, we believe wheat can do so much more than feed the world—it can improve global health and drive sustainability. Our groundbreaking genotype-independent, tissue culture-free wheat transformation technology enables us to develop new wheat varieties with enhanced traits that go beyond traditional expectations. 🚀 One exciting focus? Dietary fibers and bioactive compounds. ✅ Dietary fibers: Wheat can be a key source of high-quality fibers that support gut health, regulate blood sugar, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. ✅ GLP-1 boosting properties: By enhancing wheat’s natural compounds, we envision creating varieties that naturally stimulate GLP-1, a hormone critical for appetite control, blood sugar regulation, and metabolic health—offering a natural, sustainable approach to tackling obesity and diabetes. This isn’t just about farming better wheat; it’s about transforming wheat into a functional, health-boosting crop that aligns with the growing demand for nutrient-rich, sustainable food systems. 📢 We’re looking for partners, collaborators, and investors to join us in this journey. Together, we can redefine wheat’s role in agriculture, health, and sustainability! #AgriTech #FoodInnovation #GeneEditing #Sustainability #FiberRevolution #GLP1 #FunctionalFoods #WheatTransformation #BioTech #FutureOfFood #HealthyLiving #RegenerativeAgriculture #CropScience #SustainableFarming

🌱 Happy World Soil Day! 🌱 At Novin AgriTech, we recognize the vital role soil plays in feeding the world.

Did you know? The wheat genome is one of the most complex in nature:               •            ~5x larger than the human genome               •            ~7x larger than the corn genome               •            ~15x larger than the soybean genome With nearly 17 billion base pairs and three closely related sub-genomes, its complexity has historically made improving critical traits like drought tolerance, disease resistance, and nutrient efficiency incredibly challenging. 🌍 Why does this matter? Wheat is the staple food for over 40% of the global population, making it a cornerstone of global food security. But field-based breeding alone cannot deliver the accelerated genetic gains needed to meet today’s challenges. 🌟 The Breakthrough: Novin AgriTech 🌟 At Novin AgriTech (a Purdue University’s startup), we’ve developed a revolutionary wheat transformation technology that is: ✨ Genotype-independent ✨ Tissue culture-free ✨ Accelerated ✨ In-planta This innovation overcomes the bottlenecks of traditional methods, enabling: 🌱 The rapid adoption of molecular breeding technologies. 🌾 The creation of resilient wheat varieties that thrive in changing climates. 🌍 A pathway to unlocking biotechnology’s full potential for wheat improvement.

Did you know sweet potatoes are “Natural GMOs”? 🌱 In a recent paper, we highlighted the fascinating concept of “Natural GMOs”. Sweet potato, the fifth most-produced crop globally and a staple of our food systems for thousands of years, is a natural GMO. It contains ancient T-DNA from Agrobacterium, making it a naturally transgenic crop that humans have safely consumed for millennia without any reported health risks ✅. This discovery challenges traditional perceptions of genetic modification and highlights its potential role in shaping the future of food security 🌾. At Novin AgriTech, we’re proud to contribute to groundbreaking research by accelerating genetic gains through innovative gene-editing solutions for elite cereal cultivars 🌾✨. Our mission is to harness genetic technologies to create a sustainable future for food and health 🌍🌱. Reference: 📚 Rafiei F, Wiersma J, Scofield S, Zhang C, Alizadeh H, & Mohammadi M. (2024).
