to investigate the impact of overexpression of atnrt2.1 transgene from arabidopsis on nitrate uptake rate and to understand the regulation of endogenous hats by nitrate and glutamine amino acid (gln) in tobacco plants, wild-type and transgenic (f line) plants grown on soil for 4 weeks were transferred to hydroponic culture in a controlled-environment with a 16/8h l:d photoperiod at 24? c/20...

The engineering of transgenic canola (Brassica napus L. ) to make tolerance to the broad-spectrum herbicide, glyphosate, is one of the most effective approaches for weed management. Glyphosate inhibits the enzyme EPSPS (5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase) enzyme which functions in the shikimate pathway and has a key role in biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids required for survival of ...

Abstract Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) is found worldwide wherever citrus cultivated, causing disease resulting in significant yield losses and sometimes the death of plant. Transgenic plants encoding CTV gene sequences have shown to exhibit pathogen-derived resistance CTV. Exogenous application double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) an established strategy for plant control, making this method attractive a...

Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated transformation may offer a better alternative than the biolistic gun for genetic transformation of maize plants. This gene delivery system results in a greater proportion of stable, low-copy number transgenic events than does the biolistic gun, and is highly efficient. In the present work, we studied maize transformation using A. tumefaciens by identifying som...

Evaluation of Some Characteristics Substantial Equivalence a Salinity-Resistant Transgenic Potato

Background and objectives: Hyoscyamus reticulatus contains two distinguished tropane alkaloids, hyoscyamineand scopolamine and both of the compounds possesspotential acute or chronic toxicity. In the present study, a simple and efficient transformation system was established for in vitro hairy roots induction in Hyoscyamus reticulatus. M...

abstract the purpose of this research was to transform two economically important cultivars of strawberry with p5cs gene, which encodes δ1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase (p5cs), the key enzyme in proline biosynthesis. shoots were obtained on ms basal medium supplemented with 2% glucose and 4 mg/l tdz for camarosa and kurdistan cultivars. for genetic transformation, a binary vector pbi121 co...

a stable agrobacterium-mediated transformation system was established using bialaphos as the selective agent in soybeans [glycine max (l.) merr.]. the cotyledonary node explants of the soybean cultivar ‘ny-1001’ were inoculated with the agrobacterium tumefaciens strain eha105, harboring the vector pcambia3301 containing the gus gene as the reporter gene and the bar gene conferring bialaphos res...
