Pcambia 1305

UNLABELLED: Chilling Tolerant Divergence 1 ( COLD1 ) gene consists of Golgi pH Receptor (GPHR) as well as Abscisic Acid-linked G Protein-Coupled Receptor (ABA_GPCR), which are the major transmembrane proteins in plants. This gene expression has been found to be differentially regulated, under various stress conditions, in wild Saccharum -related genera, Erianthus arundinaceus , compared to commercial sugarcane variety. In this study, Rapid Amplification of Genomic Ends (RAGE) technique was employed to isolate the 5' upstream region of COLD1 gene to gain knowledge about the underlying stress regulatory mechanism...

This data deals with the optimization of microprojectile bombardment particles for efficient genetic transformation in an indica rice involving AmSOD gene for development of salinity tolerant transgenic lines [1]. In this study, various parameters such as effect of genotypes, helium pressure, osmoticum, explants, flight distance, particle size, particle volume, vacuum, carrier DNA and stopping screen properties have been evaluated to determine their role in transformation of indica rice involving AmSOD gene for development of salinity tolerant Pusa Basmati 1 rice variety...

Background: Oat ( Avena sativa ) with high nutritive value and fiber content is used as the main food grain in many countries for human diet as well as animal feed. Recently, it became difficult to transfer new genes through the conventional breeding due to the lack of desirable traits. Objectives: The current study aimed at achieving a standardized protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation in oat. Materials and Methods: For oat transformation, mature seeds were sterilized, germinated, and used for explants generation...

Sesbania drummondii (Rydb.) Cory is a source for phytopharmaceuticals. It also hyperaccumulates several toxic heavy metals. Development of an efficient gene transfer method is an absolute requirement for the genetic improvement of this plant with more desirable traits due to limitations in conventional breeding methods. A simple protocol was developed for Agrobacterium-mediated stable genetic transformation of Sesbania. Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA 101 containing the vector pCAMBIA 1305.1 having hptII and GUS plus genes was used for the gene transfer experiments...

Rice was transformed with either long DNA-segments of random genomic DNA from rice, or centromere-specific DNA sequences from either maize or rice. Despite the repetitive nature of the transgenic DNA sequences, the centromere-specific sequences were inserted largely intact and behave as simple Mendelian units. Between 4 and 5% of bombarded callus clusters were transformed when bombarded with just pCAMBIA 1305.2. Frequency of recovery dropped to 2-3% when BACs with random genomic inserts were co-bombarded with pCAMBIA, and fell to less than 1% when BACs with centromeric DNA inserts and pCAMBIA were co-bombarded...

A robust and high throughput Agrobacterium genetic transformation procedure has been developed for perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). Embryogenic callus lines were selected and maintained as plants in vitro. Embryogenic calli derived from meristematic regions of the vegetative tillers were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA101 carrying the plasmid pCAMBIA 1305.1 in the presence of acetosyringone for 3-4 days. The calli were grown under 94.8 and 151.6 microM hygromycin selection, respectively for two cycles of 2-weeks each, followed by transfer to regeneration medium with 47...
