Evogene Announces Collaboration With Google Cloud To Pioneer Generative AI Foundation Model For Novel Small Molecule Design, Leveraging Evogene's Deep Expertise In Computational Predictive Biology And Google Cloud's Leadership In AI And Machine Learning

Watershed AC ("Watershed", formerly Colors Farm Ltd.), a cutting-edge company in sustainable&nbsp;aquaculture and biotech and Evogene Ltd. ("Evogene") (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVGN#NASDAQ">EVGN</a>)(TASE: EVGN), a leading computational biology company aiming to revolutionize life-science-based product discovery and development, together with Ben-Gurion University (BGU), a renowned Israeli academic research institution, announced receiving an approval from IIA for a second year grant to continue developing &nbsp;CRISPR technology for crustaceans, following a successful first year.
&nbsp;
The collaboration aims to provide a sustainable solution to existing limitations in gene editing for non-model organisms with sparse genomic data and protocols, focusing on improving key traits such as growth rate, disease resistance, and environmental adaptation in crustaceans, targeting giant freshwater prawn, white leg shrimp and red swamp crayfish.
The global shrimp market size was USD 40.35 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.09% during the 2024-2032 period[1]. The global crayfish market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 31.5% between 2024 and 2032[2]. These growing markets increasingly emphasize the need to expand sustainable aquaculture, making the technology developed in the frame of the collaboration exceptionally relevant.
During the first year the partners successfully met the collaboration's planned goals. Evogene leveraged its advanced&nbsp;GeneRator AI&nbsp;tech-engine and provided predictions for optimal guide RNAs (gRNAs), through several novel features: utilization of un-annotated genomes (lacking gene models), consideration of natural DNA variance in gRNAs design, and off-target prediction to increase editing specificity. This allowed Watershed and BGU to successfully produce the first edited giant freshwater prawn&nbsp;(Macrobrachium rosenbergii) with a selected target trait of colored eye, post larvae at advanced life stages, thereby achieving the main milestone in the utilization of CRISPR technology in crustaceans.
In the second year, the collaboration's main target is to industrially scale-up CRISPR technology for giant freshwater prawn&nbsp;and expand the obtained application to the additional crustacean species, white leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkia). &nbsp;

Lavie Bio Ltd., a leading ag-biologicals company and a subsidiary of Evogene Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVGN#NASDAQ">EVGN</a>) (TASE: EVGN), is pleased to announce the commercial expansion of its bio-inoculant product, Yalos&trade;, to winter wheat, following successful trials. This expansion effectively doubles the potential market for Yalos&trade; compared to markets in which&nbsp;Lavie Bio&nbsp;already operates. Winter wheat growers across the US will have access to Yalos&trade; for the upcoming 2024-2025 season.
<img alt="Evogene" src="https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/1947468/Evogene.jpg" />
Winter wheat is one of the crucial crops in&nbsp;North America&nbsp;and globally, significantly contributing to the agricultural economy and food supply. The US is expected to produce about 1.28 billion bushels in 2024[1], with a market value, according to&nbsp;Lavie Bio&#39;s&nbsp;estimation, between&nbsp;$5-$10 billion&nbsp;annually. Introducing Yalos&trade; to this market offers substantial potential to capture market share by enhancing crop productivity and sustainability. To date,&nbsp;Lavie Bio&nbsp;has focused on the spring wheat market, along with durum and barley, which together form a smaller market compared to winter wheat.
During the successful field trials, Yalos&trade; has demonstrated enhanced early vigor, biomass, root and shoot development, nutrient availability, and feed quality in winter wheat. Yalos&trade; aims to reduce crop abandonment rates and increase farm productivity through advanced biological technologies.
In addition,&nbsp;Lavie Bio&nbsp;is expecting to expand Yalos&trade; into other key crops, such as soybean and canola, with ongoing field trials in&nbsp;North America&nbsp;and an expected commercial launch in 2025. The US soybean market size is estimated by&nbsp;Lavie Bio&nbsp;at approximately&nbsp;$56.2&nbsp;billion in 2024.

Lavie Bio Expands Yalos Bio-Inoculant to Winter Wheat Market, Doubling Potential Reach

Casterra Ag Ltd.,&nbsp;a subsidiary of Evogene Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVGN#NASDAQ">EVGN</a>) (TASE: EVGN), is a provider of an integrated solution for industrial-scale cultivation of castor plants based on its elite castor seed varieties, developed for bio-based industries including, biofuels &amp; biopolymers. Casterra is pleased to announce the receipt of an additional purchase order valued at&nbsp;~$440K&nbsp;from an existing customer. This order expands Casterra&#39;s operations into a new African country and solidifies Casterra&#39;s unique offering in the bio-fuel market.
Mr. Yoash Zohar, CEO of Casterra states: &quot;This additional order reflects the confidence in Casterra&#39;s capabilities and in our castor seed varieties, developed utilizing Evogene&#39;s&nbsp;GeneRator AI&nbsp;tech-engine and Casterra&#39;s advanced breeding methods, and marks a significant step in our expansion into&nbsp;Africa. We expect that our previously announced seed production, now totaling 900 tons, will more than support this order, which is expected to be completed by&nbsp;Q4&nbsp;2024, as well as earlier purchase orders received last year. Casterra remains committed to being a world leader in castor seed development and production and promoting sustainable biofuel production globally.&quot;&nbsp;
Casterra anticipates that the remaining revenue from castor seed orders received during 2023 and in 2024, which were not supplied to date (including the order described in today&#39;s PR), will be approximately&nbsp;~$8.4 million, reflecting a price adjustment due to late delivery of the order from 2023. Based on the planned production this year, Casterra expects to recognize revenues in this amount in the second half of 2024.
The global biodiesel market size was estimated at $36.48 billion&nbsp;in 2022 and it is expected to hit around $79.12 billion&nbsp;by 2032, expanding at a notable CAGR of&nbsp;8.1%&nbsp;from 2023 to 2032[1]. Biofuels offer significant advantages over conventional petrochemical fuels, presenting a renewable and biodegradable alternative with substantially lower negative environmental impact.&nbsp;Castor oil emerges as a standout non-fossil oil candidate due to its carbon-neutral and other properties making it compliant with tightening European regulatory standards.
Casterra&#39;s high oil-yielding varieties have been developed with traits which make the castor plants grown suitable for large scale farming on marginal soils in semi-arid conditions. Castor plants and the castor oil produced have the potential of becoming a major sustainable feedstock for the global bio-fuel industry &ndash; without competing with food crops over prime land.&nbsp;
