Rice biotechnology has made rapid advances since the first transgenic rice plants were
produced 15 years ago. Over the past decade, this progress has resulted in the …

Genes conferring resistance to antibiotics have been widely used as markers for the
selection of transformed cells in the development of genetically modified (GM) plants. Their …

Marker genes (MGs) are essential tools for plant research and biotechnology. Positive
selectable marker genes (SMGs) are used in genetic transformation to allow only transgenic …

Abstract Amidase 1 (AMI1) from Arabidopsis thaliana converts indole-3-acetamide (IAM),
into indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). AMI 1 is part of a small isogene family comprising seven …

We evaluated a two-component transposon iAc/Ds system for generating a library of
insertional mutants in rice. The constructs used have gene or enhancer trapping properties …

The diversification of land plants largely relies on their ability to cope with constant
environmental fluctuations, which negatively impact their reproductive fitness and trigger …

Rice transformation is a major goal in cereal biotechnology, not only because rice is the
world's most important food crop but also because this species has now been recognized as …

To investigate its potential application as a selectable marker for plant transformation, the
mannitol producing, celery mannose-6-phosphate reductase gene (M6PR) was transformed …

The DIANTHIN gene encoding a ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) from Dianthus
caryophyllus L. was tested for negative selection in tobacco and rice. Tobacco leaf discs and …
