Saying a type of corn is transgenic doesn't mean that it likes to dress up as a soybean, but Athenix can explain all that later. The company develops enhanced plants, microbes, enzymes, and processes. It produces genes and proteins with traits such as insect and nematode resistance and herbicide tolerance, as well as developing transgenic plants for increased crop production. Athenix sells its genes, proteins, transgenic organisms, and other biological goodies to scientists involved in other life-sciences sectors, including those who develop agricultural and specialty chemicals, feed and seed, and energy production. The company was acquired by Bayer CropScience in 2009.
