Nature
We leverage the power of Nature to drivepositive change through plant engineering.
Explore our workThe future of plants is already here
Our long-term program: crops that draw the nitrogen they need directly from the air, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizer, greenhouse-gas emissions and nitrogen pollution across air, water and soil.

Our PlantBioengineeringPlatform
Increases targeted plant output
Higher levels of target compounds, oils, fibers and metabolites.
Creates new biological outputs
New molecules, pigments, fragrances and materials produced.
Differentiates products
New color, composition, quality, appearance or function.
Engineers environmental resilience
Resistance to stresses like drought, salinity, heat and others.
Reduces critical inputs
Lower dependence on fertilizers and other polluting or costly inputs.
The completeplant-engineeringstackunder one roof
At The Seed, our 1200 m² R&D facility in Paris, we take plant-engineering programs from trait design to stable, validated plant lines.

Bioinformatics
From genome data to a build-ready design. We identify candidate genes and regulatory elements, model pathway behavior, infer plant physiology and select the best architecture before laboratory work begins.
