Abstract

Food shortages are said to be inevitable due to rapid population growth. Previous iGEM teams have approached to solve the problem by challenging to express plant hormone in E.Coli (2010 imperial college, 2012 Evry, 2012 Kyoto).

Our goal is to make progress with transforming E. Coli to act upon plants. That is to say, we aim to create “Farmer E. Coli”, which senses the nutrition of soil and expresses the plant hormones properly. We need to synthesize auxin, which is presented by Imperial College in 2010 iGEM, and cytokinin on our own.

We will find the solution of “Safety” and “Crosstalk” problems considered when we put this to practical use. As to safety, we plan to create E. Coli which destroys external E. Coli by genome transportation of phage. Furthermore, we will design a new circuit to circumvent the crosstalk.
