Transformation of Arabidopsis with plant-derived DNA sequences necessary for selecting transformants and driving an objective gene.

چکیده
Most genetically modified plants are made with antibiotic-resistant genes and promoters derived from plant pathogens. To promote public acceptance, we have adapted a selectable marker and promoters all of which were derived from Arabidopsis thaliana to transformation. We have employed the gene for acetolactate synthase with its own promoter as a selectable marker, and the actin 2 gene promoter to strongly express an objective gene.

Differential Expression of Arabidopsis thaliana Acid Phosphatases in Response to Abiotic Stresses
The objective of this research is to identify Arabidopsis thaliana genes encoding acid phosphatases induced by phosphate starvation. Multiple alignments of eukaryotic acid phosphatase amino acid sequences led to the classification of these proteins into four groups including purple acid phosphatases (PAPs). Specific primers were degenerated and designed based on conserved sequences of PAPs isol...
متن کاملFactors affecting delivery of DREB1A gene in maize B73 split-seeds via biolistic system
Immature embryos as a choice tissue for genetic transformation of maize have a few limitations, such as genotype dependence, time-consuming and requiring a well-equipped greenhouse for access, at any time. In the present study, the split-seed explants were used for genetic transformation of maize, B73 line. The transformation of maize split-seed explants from the inbred line B73, for resistance...
متن کاملIsolation and molecular characterization of the RecQsim gene in Arabidopsis, rice (Oryza sativa) and rape (Brassica napus)
In any organism that reproduces sexually, DNA Recombination plays vital roles in the generation of allelic diversity as well as in preservation of genome fidelity. Genome fidelity is particularly important in plants because mutations occurring during the development of flowering plants are heritable and can be passed onto the next generation. One of the gene families that play crucial roles in ...
متن کاملIdentification of Arabidopsis thaliana transformants without selection reveals a high occurrence of silenced T-DNA integrations.
Several recent investigations of T-DNA integration sites in Arabidopsis thaliana have reported 'cold spots' of integration, especially near centromeric regions. These observations have contributed to the ongoing debate over whether T-DNA integration is random or occurs preferentially in transcriptionally active regions. When transgenic plants are identified by selecting or screening for transge...
متن کاملGeneration of single-copy T-DNA transformants in Arabidopsis by the CRE/loxP recombination-mediated resolution system.
We investigated whether complex T-DNA loci, often resulting in low transgene expression, can be resolved efficiently into single copies by CRE/loxP-mediated recombination. An SB-loxP T-DNA, containing two invertedly oriented loxP sequences located inside and immediately adjacent to the T-DNA border ends, was constructed. Regardless of the orientation and number of SB-loxP-derived T-DNAs integra...
