Prof. Peter James Icalia Gann of Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) has led a groundbreaking research study on growing gene-edited rice on Mars conducted in the University of Arkansas (U of A) in the United States.

A breakthrough in growing food on the Red Planet, the study suggests that rice can grow and survive in Martian regolith through control of stress-related genes and the toxic perchlorate salts in the planet soil.
