Unveiling PlantScience.ai: A niche LLM to power your plant science research

April 10, 2026/in Plant Science Research Weekly/by Shakunthala Natarajan

You ask a plant science specific question to a general-purpose large language model (LLM) and it puts out vague answers. Sometimes you wonder if the answer is valid or if the LLM is pulling you into a hallucination trap! Does this sound familiar? To tackle this problem, PlantScience.ai, a virtual scientist for plant sciences, has […]

Decoding a multifunctional biosynthetic gene cluster for post-chorismate metabolism in Arabidopsis

March 13, 2026/in Plant Science Research Weekly/by Shakunthala Natarajan

Biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) are groups of genes physically located in close proximity in a genomic region and can be thought of as a close-knit genomic orchestra. While these BGCs were thought to be rare in plants, unlike bacteria, Peng et al. takes the story a step ahead with the discovery of a BGC in […]
