Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Nicotiana benthamiana, also known as benth or benthi, is a plant species native to Australia and closely related to tobacco. It was traditionally used by indigenous Australians as a stimulant before the introduction of commercial tobacco. This plant has been used in various research studies, particularly in the fields of plant virology and biotechnology. It is also commonly used for "pharming" monoclonal antibodies and other recombinant proteins. In 2022, a genetically engineered N. benthamiana was developed that could produce 25% of the amount of cocaine found in a coca plant. Additionally, this plant has been used in the development of a COVID-19 vaccine, with Health Canada authorizing its use in February 2022.
