When she saw the faint smile playing on his lips, she knew she had guessed right.

Roseanne was astonished. "How on earth did you do it?"

"The Journal of American Synthetic Biology recently published a paper titled 'Cloning and Expression of a Nonribosomal Peptide Synthetase for the Production of Blue Roses.' The lead author is Ankanahalli Nangawa, a postdoc from T University. They first constructed a dual-expression plasmid, which included two bacterial genes involved in indigo synthesis, then this plasmid was transformed into Agrobacterium, and then..."

Corley paused, as if he had hit a wall while reciting a script.
