CINCINNATI (WKRC/CNN Newsource) – Scientists discovered a new way to create glow-in-the-dark plants that allows for brighter luminosity, multiple colors, and easier recharging.
Scientists have long known that certain genes can be inserted into plants to give them a faint bioluminescence, but it could only glow green and was never very bright.
A group of Chinese researchers took a different approach by injecting echeveria succulents with strontium aluminate, the nano-particles responsible for giving glow-in-the-dark toys their ability to absorb light and glow…
