Considering the genomic and agronomic resources available for these lettuce species, they open the door for in-depth analysis of natural rubber biosynthesis in plants. The EU might just be on the brink of pioneering a sustainable rubber revolution, driven by the unyielding resilience and adaptability of plants like kok-sagyz and wild lettuce.
Our startup has negotiated two sites for growing wild lettuce and dandelion kok -sagyz in Baden Würtenberg in Germany, and in Harjumaa in Estonia.
