Line 8:
With the help of two biotechnologists, they encoded a basic computer program in Python Programming language into ''Nicotiana benthamiana''.
They first encoded a “Hello World” computer program into a DNA code, synthesized it and cloned this Coded DNA into a plasmid-vector to be used further for transformation into ''Nicotiana benthamiana'' plants. The encoded program was reconstructed from the resulting seedlings with 100% accuracy by showing “Hello World” on the computer screen.
Their approach demonstrated that artificially encoded data can be stored and multiplied within plants without affecting their vigor and fertility. It also takes a step forward from storing data into a naked DNA molecule.
It is inherent in progeny and authentically reproducible while the reduced metabolism of the seeds provides an additional protection for encoded DNA archives.
