Gene Expression in Plants | Biotechnology

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Gene Expression in Vegetative Organs 2. Gene Expression in Reproductive Organs 3. Gene Expression in Seeds 4. Gene Expression in Fruits. Successful studies on gene expression in plants are undoubtedly due to the contribution of early botanical monograph in which cytological structure and function of organs were de­fined. With the advent of [...]

Top 6 Plant Promoters for Genes | Biotechnology

The following points highlight the top six plant promoters for genes. The promoters are: 1. Core Promoter 2. Light Responsive Promoters 3. Stress Responsive Promoters 4. Plant Hormonal Responsive Promoters 5. Sucrose Responsive Promoters 6. Low-Oxygen Responsive Promoters. 1. Core Promoter: Core promoter elements are defined as minimal promoter that contain TATA box. These are indispensable for initiation of transcription [...]

Significance of Protoplast Culture | Biotechnology

In this article we will discuss about the significance of protoplast culture. Cell Modification by DNA Uptake: The isolated plant protoplasts are best suited for the introduction of foreign genetic ma­terial. Protoplast acts as an efficient receptor for the uptake of foreign DNA. Protoplast can be regenerated into the whole plant and this is indispensable for genetic manipulation. The ratio [...]
