Field #Pennycress, a plant in the Brassica family related to #mustards and #cabbages, is usually considered a #weed. But one feature made it less of a wallflower: its very high #OilContent, about 50% higher than that of a #soybean. After close to a decade of controlled breeding and #GeneSplicing, the onetime weed is being cultivated as a source for #RenewableDiesel or sustainable #AviationFuel.
