Genetically engineering tobacco plants could enable a more sustainable production method for psychedelic drugs, which are increasingly in demand for research and medical uses.
With the addition of nine genes, the plants were able to produce psilocin and psilocybin, usually found in mushrooms; DMT from various plants; and bufotenin and 5-methoxy-DMT, compounds secreted by the Colorado river toad (Incilius alvarius).
It’s a lazy “paywall”.
DMT is smokeable so what a crime against humanity to not open source this. Thx to all the posters of the articles
Ok, that’s cool and good. Sad LSD wasn’t one of them though
Oh shit would that mean dmt could become cheaper?
