Petri dishes, reagent bottles, beakers, flasks and test tube racks.
This is the biological experiment center located in Beidu, the earth's receiving end for alien biochemical technology. Since Beidu began to cooperate with the resistance organization, it has become the most important biological experiment base in the country.
Beidu attaches great importance to the experimental base, investing a lot of manpower and material resources, and strives to build the experimental base into the world's most high-end biochemical base.
If the research on planetary engines is the most important thing in Beijing, then cooperation on biochemical technology must be ranked second. In the minds of some people, absorbing biochemical technology is more important than studying planetary engines!
This is not surprising. The planetary engine is so high-end that even the aliens have lost its manufacturing technology. However, biochemical technology is actually in the hands of the resistance organization and can be taught to humans step by step from shallow to deep.
To this end, high-end talents from all over the country gathered in Beidu, and their only mission was to understand the technology from aliens as soon as possible.
These days, various disciplines are subdivided and subdivided. Even high-end talents have different focuses. Some are good at viruses, some specialize in genes, and some are inclined to medicine.
These experts and scholars from different disciplines watched the same video, but each had their own insights. Because they had already made achievements in their respective disciplines, and the resistance organizations also started from the most basic technical teachings, the laboratory quickly learned
Practical results were produced.
The first to make breakthroughs was genetic technology, which involves cutting-edge fields such as genetic analysis, genetic recombination, gene activation sequences, and genetic adjustment.
Gene technology is not a new topic, but humans have made few achievements in this area, and there is a lack of understanding of ineffective genes.
However, genetic analysis technology has solved this problem. The genetic research team of the laboratory used alien technology to reorganize the human genome and obtained a large amount of first-hand experimental data. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the research team is given enough time, according to the
Having a child customized to the parents' wishes will no longer be a dream.
More importantly, this technology can examine the genes of fertilized eggs to find problems in the genes, fundamentally eliminating the occurrence of genetic diseases and congenital defects. In the foreseeable future, it can also be treated through extended technologies such as gene deployment -
—This technology can not only treat during the embryonic stage, but even adults’ genes can be adjusted and repaired as long as it develops to a certain level.
The military believes that aliens use this technology to transform prisoners, and hopes that the genetic research team in the laboratory will reach this level as soon as possible.
Of course, the military only hopes so, and they also know that the research team will not be able to reach that level for a while.
Breakthroughs in genetic technology have also led to the explosive development of a series of related technologies, the most important of which is cloning technology.
From a certain perspective, humans have mastered cloning technology as early as the 1990s, but this technology has never really matured. Problems such as premature aging and low fertility have always troubled researchers around the world.
However, genetic analysis technology can solve these problems. All the research team needs is enough time.
In addition, this technology also paves the way for organ cloning. It will soon become a reality to allow animals to grow cloned human organs. Not only the heart, liver, lungs and other internal organs, but also arms, legs, and even a bone or a muscle can be cloned.
Solution.
An expert predicted that cloning is only the first step. The ultimate goal of genetic research is to completely control genes. In the short term, cloning can only be used to solve the problem of transplant organ donors. One day in the future, humans will not need to transplant organs, but will
The diseased organs gradually wither and are replaced by new organs that grow back in the body. Even limbs that are amputated can grow back...
This last sentence is still rhetoric for the time being, but the prospects of genetic technology are undeniable and will definitely bring about earth-shaking changes to mankind.
Medical cloning is only one aspect. More importantly, humans can use cloning technology to reproduce extinct creatures one by one!
Today, the earth has been ravaged by giant insects for more than eight years. During these eight years, most wild animals have been wiped out by giant insects. The only large mammals that exist are those that are raised by humans.
When the genetic technology mastered by humans reaches a certain level, it will be possible to reconstruct the genes of extinct creatures through genetic recombination and gene activation, and bring them back to the world!
Of course, achieving this is far more difficult than regenerating a severed limb, but it is still a thought.
Another technology that has to be mentioned is genetic modification. Thanks to breakthroughs in genetic technology, genetic modification technology has also been greatly improved. Rice ears have been grown on willow branches in the laboratory, and they can grow again after harvesting.
As long as the nutrients are kept up in time, harvesting can be done every more than a month.
The laboratory has named this new crop willow rice. According to laboratory measurements, a five-meter-tall willow rice plant can yield 500 to 700 kilograms of rice in one harvest, which is only slightly less than the yield of one acre of hybrid rice.
However, willow rice does not grow in a vacuum. Such a plant has very high environmental requirements. There must be no lack of water or fertilizer during the ear-bearing period, otherwise there will be no hope of receiving a single hair.
The laboratory's next plan is to introduce rhizobia into willow rice and reduce its dependence on artificial fertilization.
The success of willow rice is just the beginning. The laboratory plans to conduct similar experiments on representative plants across the country, especially those that grow in abundance in the wild.
When these genetically modified plants come out of the laboratory, the food problems that plague mankind will be solved most completely, and farmers' farming costs will also be greatly reduced.
Experts believe that it won't be long before the laboratory can cultivate plants grown directly in a vacuum, transforming Beiyuezhou into something completely different.
Some experts are trying to transfer animal genes to plants so that the plants can directly grow meat to make up for the gap in meat supply.
They don't know yet that insect trees have always been an important food source for aliens.
The research team will also conduct similar experiments on other food crops and various fruits and vegetables in the future. Well, the workload is huge, and the research team has a long way to go. It may take several generations, but Jiuchiroulin is not Linme,
The future must be a bright road to heaven!
However, discordant sounds can be heard at any time. The current research of the research team is limited to grains and vegetables, but some people have already opened their minds and plan to make plants directly grow oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and so on. For this reason, they also wrote a
A formal application was made, but this too avant-garde application was ruthlessly rejected by the experimental center.
Humanity needs genetically modified plants, but it only intends to solve the food problem, and has no intention of replacing light industry with plants, let alone following the path of aliens.
