Plant engineering method promises to dramatically improve biofuel and bioproduct development
The ability to genetically engineer plants is largely thanks to a microscopic helper: a bacterium called Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Agrobacterium in the wild causes damaging tumors in flowering plants ...
Plastid transformation in higher plants is accomplished through a gradual process, during which all the 300–10,000 plastid genome copies are uniformly altered. Antibiotic resistance genes incorporated ...
A recent breakthrough in biotechnology promises to change the landscape of plant genetic engineering. Imagine a persistent invader—Agrobacterium—long used to deliver genes into plants. Despite its ...
