Founded in 1997, Mendel Biotechnology, Inc. was a pioneer in the application of functional genomics to the study of plant genes. Mendel's initial mission, now largely complete, was to discover and characterize the function of plant transcription factor genes as the basis for creating novel products for agriculture. Mendel is now commercializing transcription factor technologies in the agricultural biotechnology and chemistry sectors. Products incorporating Mendel technologies are being developed for large acreage row crops, and for the forestry, ornamental and horticultural markets. Mendel has partnerships with leading agriculture companies, including Monsanto, the world's leader in commercializing transgenic crops.
