Reporting on genetic engineering can be challenging, especially when you have to visualize it for your readers. that’s why Biofortified has put together this series of images intended for the media (and everyone else) to use to help illustrate stories about plant genetics. Please remember to credit the images!

| Description: Wheat seeds treated with bacteria like those colonized in this petri dish are nearly immune to wheat take-all, a root-destroying fungal disease. The sequencing gel in the background bears the genetic code for bacterial enzymes that synthesize natural antibiotics.
Note: While this image was not intended to depict genetic engineering, it can work very well for that purpose. The wheat seeds, plate of bacteria, and genetic code background elements are common for genetic engineering. |
