Jonathan Pekar, an evolutionary virologist at the University of Edinburgh and an author of the new study, said that the histories of the two coronaviruses followed parallel paths. “In my mind, they are extraordinarily similar,” he said. In both cases, Dr. Pekar and his colleagues

The African Union, which is hardly captured by agri-business, has been promoting these techniques for decades. They note it could jump cassava, bean, rice, banana and potatoes yields. This technology provides the fastest way to generate diversity to develop suitable crops and
