She found that some corn plant genes acted in an unusual way.

她发现一些玉米植物的基因以一种不寻常的方式起着作用。

And more recently, we've figured out how to speed up the process by directly editing plant genes —those tiny units of DNA.

最近，我们发现了如何通过直接编辑植物基因——那些微小的 DNA 单位——来加快这一过程。

And we'll explore how people have manipulated plants' genes in increasingly precise ways —influencing not just the plants' future, but our own.

我们将探索人类如何以越来越精确的方式操纵植物的基因——不仅影响了植物的未来，也影响着我们自己的未来。
