agriculture has been a mystery until now.

Tatsuro Hamada and Naoya Hatano used cutting-edge proteomic analysis to identify all of the components. They isolated and sequenced the proteins, then compared each with existing proteins to find structural matches. Hamada and Hatano detected seven proteins that exist mainly in the pitcher fluid of N. alata three of which can only be found in this species including useful enzymes that may inhibit bacterial growth and rotting as the plant slowly digests its prey.
