Medicago is utilizing gene-editing technology to transform common plants like bananas, lettuce, and potatoes into mini bioreactors for vaccine production. The process involves synthesizing virus codes into biological products and using Agrobacterium tunfaciens to insert genetic instructions into plant cells via a vacuum bath. These plants then produce virus-like particles intended for human consumption as edible vaccines.
