Glowing Garden: Genetically Modified Bioluminescent Petunias

Discover the new genetically modified bioluminescent petunias that glow in the dark, bringing joy and magic into our lives. Developed by Keith Wood, Ph.D. and his company Light Bio, these petunias have bright, white flowers that light up with a greenish, white glow in the dark, resembling fireflies. Using genes from a bioluminescent mushroom and a fungi, the plant is self-sustaining and does not require an extra chemical to light up.
