Radical bio-mutations caused by genetic engineering are present in Sandgrass, possibly performed by Luminoth scientists in an effort to fortify the plant against the harsh environment resulting from the devastating meteor impact.

Logbook entry from Metroid Prime 2: Echoes: Sandgrass

First Location: Agon Wastes
Sandgrass scans indicate that the plant requires no moisture to survive. It relies exclusively on solar energy for sustenance, making it well adapted for life in a desert environment. Evidence of extensive mutation present, suggesting radical bio-adjustments within the last centicycle. Mutation source is not natural: plant strain was genetically engineered, possibly by the Luminoth.
