AI-enabled protein design facilitates future plant research and crop breeding

Artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to reshape the research paradigm of the life sciences by rapidly advancing the adoption of protein language models and their derivative tools. These technologies are increasingly being applied to protein structure prediction, function analysis, and protein design throughout the life sciences, and have only recently begun to gain attention within the plant science community. Moreover, while the era of AI-driven bio-breeding is on the horizon, it remains larg
