Resurrect Bio

Summary

Resurrect Bio is a plant biotech start-up is focused on enhancing the immune systems of crop species. Traditionally, plant breeders have improved crops for traits like yield and drought tolerance, often at the expense of immune resistance genes. Modern monocultures remain evolutionarily stagnant while pests and pathogens continuously adapt, overcoming crop R-genes. Climate change exacerbates the issue by spreading diseases to new regions, broadening the range of threats farmers face.
