Whether it is a gene decoder or a recombination evolution instrument, in fact, the technological content in it is not high, and it relies on the huge gene database collected by the Alpha people to realize its magical function. If there is no such gene in the gene bank, then the same, Still have to honestly experiment and explore slowly.
Big data is not just messing around, and it has a very big role.
The Als are the top civilization in the universe. The genetic database they have collected can basically be said to contain the genetic database of all creatures in the universe. There are very few genetic data that they do not have.
Liu Qingquan took out the primary gene decoder for Shuiwa, and the database contained hundreds of millions of plant gene banks, which can basically completely analyze all the genes of the existing plants on the earth.
Some people may say that the ecology and environment of each planet are different, and the genes of the earth's organisms should also be different from others. How similar is the gene database of aliens to the genes of earth's organisms?
The genetic similarity between humans and mice is as high as 95%, and the genetic differences between any two people are very, very small. Therefore, the gene bank of cosmic organisms collected by the Alpha people is absolutely able to completely analyze the genes of the earth's organisms, and there is a probability that the analysis cannot be made. It is too small, even if there is, it will not have much impact.
With the two major biological research institutes, their job is to find various organisms to build the earth's biological gene pool, and to study various genetic recombinations.
Collecting organisms to build a gene bank is a non-technical work. A team of 100 people is enough. Coupled with flying cars that can fly around the world, they will be able to remove 99% of the organisms on the earth in a short time. Genes are collected.
But genetic recombination is a very huge task. There are so many gene sequences, and the combination of them is impossible to calculate. How many kinds of life there are in the universe, there are as many kinds of gene combinations, but you know how many kinds of life there are in the universe. ?
At least the Alpha people, who are already the top civilization in the universe, don't know, there is no end!
Therefore, the people of Qingquan Institute of Biological Research are constantly selecting the genes they want from the increasingly large gene pool of the earth, and then carrying out various recombinations, and then importing the recombination data into the gene recombination and evolution instrument, and after obtaining the results, they will carry out the physical objects. operation, followed by a final physical experiment.
When genetic recombination is performed, more than 99.99% of the resulting combinations can be found in the genetic recombination evolution instrument. This recombination combination will not work, and it is exciting to occasionally have results!
Of course in order to get as many combinations as possible,
People in the biological research institute use supercomputers to combine, rely on countless combinations, and then reorganize the evolutionary machine to determine whether the combination is useful or not.
Even if the probability of a useful combination is small, it is impossible to use a huge combination of supercomputers. There are always some combinations that can be successful. At present, the Institute of Biology has obtained many successful combinations.
Of course, these combinations are the results of the operation and calculation of the evolution instrument. Whether it is really effective or not depends on the actual experiments. However, the combinations obtained in most cases have no practical significance and effect. Sea buckthorn produces red flowers like azalea, plum blossoms produce triangular flowers and so on.
Such a combination is of little effect and significance, or in other words, there is not much effect and significance for the time being, but the combination that is really wanted is very rare.
Of course, these gene combinations must have certain rules and methods, but these are the secrets of various national institutions and enterprises, and will not be announced to the public at all.
You can buy their genetically modified seeds and products, and you can also see some successful genetically modified products they have come up with, but you will never tell outsiders the rules and methods of their combination.
Of course, in Liu Qingquan's seed space, there are various laws and methods researched by Alpha people, but Liu Qingquan does not intend to take it out. If everything is taken out directly, this scientific research will be completely meaningless. Honestly and down-to-earth to explore.
Being able to come up with a gene decoder and a recombination evolution instrument has been considered the biggest cheating device. With these two things, countless time and energy can be saved when researching biological gene technology, and the work without content can be omitted and the time and focus on pioneering research.
In fact, if you just get a few kinds of plants that can quickly green and transform the Loess Plateau, Shuiwa has already obtained a lot of combinations, new plants composed of camel grass, bamboo and elephant grass.
It has huge roots and drought resistance like camel grass, and at the same time, it has the rapid growth characteristics of bamboo, and also has the juicy and sweet taste of grass. It is a very good pasture. This new type of grass is covered with water The team led by Wa is named Dry Bamboo Grass.
Like the imperial bamboo grass, it is artificially selected. The species that are not naturally evolved through hybridization and genetic recombination are also an efficient and excellent forage with considerable economic value.
It is not enough to compare with the requirements of the growth environment of the imperial bamboo grass, which is only suitable for production in tropical and subtropical regions, but the dry bamboo grass produced by Shuiwa and others can grow in a wider arid area.
Such excellent pastures have been researched. It stands to reason that Shuiwa should be almost happy to announce that earth-shaking changes are about to take place in her hometown. People in the Loess Plateau can grow these pastures to raise livestock on a large scale and develop animal husbandry. In the future, the loess The plateau is not necessarily unable to become another Argentine pampas-like livestock area.
However, it is obvious that this dry bamboo grass alone cannot completely satisfy Shuiwa. Shuiwa also took a fancy to another international emerging project - energy plants!
The so-called energy plants refer to those plants that directly convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen-free hydrocarbons through photosynthesis. The chemical composition of the milk or extract of such plants is similar to that of petroleum, so it is also It is called petroleum plant, and because most of these plants are woody plants, it is also called energy tree.
The molecular structure synthesized by such plants is similar to petroleum hydrocarbons, such as alkanes, cycloalkanes, etc. Hydrocarbon-rich plants are the best source of plant energy, with low production cost and high utilization rate.
At present, there have been discovered and appreciated by energy experts, such as succulent, green jade tree, sago palm, simund wood, Brazilian rubber tree and so on. For example, the milk secreted by Hevea brasiliensis is very similar to petroleum, and can be used directly as diesel oil without refining. The annual output of each tree is as high as 40L. The trunk of nanhu, a specialty vegetable oil in Hainan Province, China, contains a light-brown flammable oily liquid similar to kerosene. Drilling a hole in the trunk will flow out this liquid, which can also be used directly as fuel oil.
The current international research on this area began in the early 1960s, developed in the 1970s, and developed rapidly after the 1980s.
In 1986, Dr. Calvin, a Nobel laureate at the University of California, successfully introduced tree species such as succulents and eucalyptus with extremely high development value in Fornia, California, which can harvest 120-140 barrels of oil per hectare, and Feasibility analysis of industrial application was made, and it was proposed to build oil plantation forest, which created a precedent for artificial planting of oil plants.
At this point, there has been a rapid upsurge in developing and researching energy plants in the world, and many countries have formulated corresponding development and research plans. Such as Japan's Sunshine Plan, India's Green Energy Project, the United States' Energy Farm and Brazil's Alcohol Energy Plan.
With the discovery of more diesel tree, alcohol tree and wax tree and the continuous maturity of cultivation technology, petroleum botanical gardens and energy forest farms have been established around the world. Petroleum fuel plants.
The United Kingdom, France, Japan, Brazil, Russia and other countries have also successively carried out research and application of petroleum plants, cultivated new tree species with the help of genetic engineering technology, and adopted more advanced cultivation technology to increase yield.
As of 2010, the United States has planted more than one million hectares of fast-growing oil forests, and established research bases for oil plants such as cottonwood, alder, black locust, and eucalyptus; in the Philippines, there are 12,000 hectares of Leuca japonica. After that, 10 million barrels of oil can be collected; Switzerland's green energy plan plans to plant 100,000 hectares of oil plants in 10 years, and solve 50% of the country's annual oil demand.
Thailand's car fuel gas station made from coconut oil has opened in Prachuap, central Thailand, becoming the world's first coconut oil gas station. Brazil is the most distinctive country in the development and application of ethanol fuel, and has implemented the world's largest ethanol planting plan. In 2004, Brazil's ethanol production reached 14.6 billion, and its ethanol consumption exceeded 12.2 billion. Brazil's ethanol production accounts for 44% of world production and 66% of exports.
The energy problem has always been an important problem restricting human development, especially in the face of the severe situation that traditional oil is depleting and new energy has not appeared, the international crude oil price in 2022 has been rising year after year, and bioenergy is naturally being paid more and more attention. Looking at this piece is also very insightful.
Shuiwa hopes to use genetic technology to develop energy plants that are suitable for production in the Loess Plateau or desert areas. If China's vast desert areas are used to grow such energy plants, then the country does not need to ask grandpa for advice in order to ensure energy supply to the world. Grandma, begging in a low voice, you can also make those energy powers kneel back ~ lick!
At this time, in the glass that Shuiwa is looking at, there is a new type of genetically modified energy plant that is preparing for field experiments. , Moso bamboo four kinds of plant gene recombination. (To be continued.)
