NRC's Plant Biotechnology Institute is dedicated to plant and crop research. PBI is a leader in the metabolic modification of oilseeds to increase oil content and to create specialty plant oils for new markets. Similar research is altering wheat starch for novel uses and to meet new international markets. Investigation of metabolic pathways has also led to a significant reduction in anti-nutritional compounds in common commercial crops. 2, record 1, English, - Plant%20Biotechnology%20Institute
