Genetic transformation

Introduction of genes by transformation techniques is another approach that can give information about composition-functionality. It also has the potential to be used in breeding programs to introduce specific genes into elite varieties to modify end-use properties. Examples of this approach can be found in the recent publications of Blechl et al. (2007) and Rakszegi etal.(2008). [Pg.122]

Other lines have been developed in which there is either deletion of the Gli-l/Glu-3 locus or allelic variation at this locus. Table 11.4 presents some data for three cultivars in which a comparison is made for MDDT when the Gli-Bl/Glu-B3 locus is present or absent (Gianibelli et al. 1998). [Pg.122]

One of the exciting features of the direct DNA delivery system is that it does not rely on an infection. The limited host range of other vector delivery systems is therefore irrelevant, and the way is opened for genetic engineering of cereals. Cereal protoplasts are equally amenable to uptake of foreign DNA after electroporation and the system therefore has potential for use with the major crop species. However, there is at present one drawback, namely that for cereals it has not yet proved possible to grow fertile whole plants from the genetically transformed cells. [Pg.139]

A few years ago, genetic transformation of chloroplasts seemed impossible to achieve because of two significant challenges. First, the double membrane of chloroplasts offered a sigifificant barrier no viruses or bacteria were known to infect chloroplasts that could be used as vectors for... [Pg.59]
