How can we improve access to the vitamin B12? Scientists at the @JohnInnesCentre, @TheQuadram & LettUs Grow have discovered a way to add B12 to pea shoots using aeroponics. Learn more about this breakthrough in this video by The Royal Society: hubs.la/Q029pNtp0

Very pleased with how our work to increase Vitamin B12 intake using new horticultural approaches is developing @bethanylil @BBSRC
Researchers have discovered a way of boosting B12 levels in pea shoots with #biofortification. 🌿 @JohnInnesCentre and @theQuadram have used LettUs Grow's #aeroponics to grow B12 fortified pea shoots containing recommended daily dose in a single portion. hubs.la/Q022Zjd10

For all the root nerds - if you're interested in rhythmic/ circadian exudate release and rhizosphere interactions, we've got a section for you 🤓😎
We review the circadian regulation of metabolism across photosynthetic organisms and beyond, suggesting areas for future work. In @ThePlantJournal with @luizalbd @bethanylil @RitchieDekeya @DeirdreALynch #chronobiology #plants @JohnInnesCentre onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

B12 is the world's most expensive vitamin, and the scarcest one in the human body. As the world transitions to plant-based diets, B12 deficiency will rise. Finding ways to fortify food with B12 may help to keep people, as well as the planet, healthy. youtube.com/watch?v=xUcFhCZV…

Royal Society video featuring our @BBSRC funded work to effectively fortify plants with Vitamin B12 and diversify the options we have to increase B12 intake. Big collaborative project lead by @JohnInnesCentre @ant_dodd, involving @TheQuadram, @LettUsGrow, and @BristolBioSci 🤓🌱
📽️ New video from the @royalsociety all about how biofortification can help keep people as well as our planet healthy 🌍 Featuring our Group Leader @vitaminB12lab, @bethanylil & @ant_dodd from @JohnInnesCentre along with @LettUsGrow 🌿 buff.ly/3LXeCxc
