Storing data into living plants

An innovative application that revolutionizes data storage by harnessing the remarkable capabilities of living plants.

Encode
The intricate process of converting custom text into a DNA sequence involves assigning each distinct character in the text to a specific arrangement of nucleotides, ultimately creating a unique genetic code that encapsulates the original message.
Decode
The process of converting the encoded DNA sequence back into its original format involves decoding the sequence of nucleotides, which are the fundamental building blocks of DNA. This intricate process entails deciphering the sequence from their encoded representations
