Have there been experiments with wooded plants or do we know that there won’t be glowing forests, because it doesn’t work like that or something?
Bioluminescent ferns bordering a wooded path would be rather magical.
I don’t think you could get wood/bark to fluoresce as it’s dead tissue… in general some tree species are very easy to work with and engineer. Poplar for example
You could totally get glowing fungus to grow on wood
I have a guide for how to do this at home! Wouldn’t let me add the pictures for some reason
But some parts of the tree must be still living
Oh yes of course. I just mean the bark wouldn’t shine but you could see in the leaves
But couldn’t they target the vascular cambium?
Sure I suppose. And it may glow. Just wouldn’t be able to see it through the dead bark
