firefly gene in tobacco plant a stunning scientific breakthrough, researchers and startup Magicpen Bio in China have engineered bioluminescent plants capable of emitting a soft natural glow in the dark. By inserting light-producing genes from fireflies Tobacco plants were engineered to

Tobacco plants were engineered to radiate green light by inserting luciferin genes, which facilitate fungal bioluminescence. Their glowing was visible to the naked eye, and is 10X brighter than plants engineered with The Scientist Image of the Day: Light Up This tobacco plant glows by expressing a luciferase gene.
