Title:
PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A GENETICALLY MODIFIED SEED
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/209804
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for producing a genetically modified seed. In particular, there is provided a process for producing a genetically modified Cannabis seed that germinates into a plant, the process comprising: (a) preparing a cell culture comprising genetically engineered Cannabis cells having at least one gene that expresses a psychoactive cannabinoid deleted; (b) establishing a callus culture for forming a somatic embryo; (c) forming a bio-ink comprising the somatic embryo that is encapsulated by a hydrogel and used as an artificial seed; and (d) three- dimensional (3D) printing the artificial seed comprised in the bio-ink. Also provided the 3D-printed artificial Cannabis seed having a shape other than that of a naturally occurring wild type Cannabis seed.
