Acrylamide is produced in starchy foods that are baked, roasted or fried at high temperatures. Concerns about the potential health issues associated with dietary intake of this reactive compound led us to reduce accumulation asparagine, one its main precursors, tubers potato (Solanum tuberosum). This metabolic change was accomplished by silencing two asparagine synthetase genes through 'all-native DNA' transformation. Glasshouse-grown transformed intragenic plants contained up 20-fold...
Plant genetic engineering has, until now, relied on the incorporation of foreign DNA into plant genomes. Public concern about extent to which transgenic crops differ from their traditionally bred counterparts has resulted in molecular strategies and gene choices that limit, but not eliminate, introduction DNA. Here, we demonstrate a plant-derived (P-) fragment can be used replace universally employed Agrobacterium transfer (T-) Marker-free P-DNAs are transferred cell nuclei together with...
The dominant potato (Solanum tuberosum) variety for French fry production in the United States is 131-year-old Russet Burbank. Market penetration of higher yielding and more uniform Ranger limited to about one-fifth that Burbank because two storage deficits: black spot bruise sensitivity high levels cold-induced sweetening. Here, these trait weaknesses are turned into strengths by simultaneously lowering expression Russet's tuber-expressed polyphenol oxidase (Ppo), starch-associated R1,...
Flavonols and caffeoylquinates represent important groups of phenolic antioxidants with health-promoting activities. The genetic potential potato (Solanum tuberosum) to produce high levels these dietary compounds has not been realized in currently available commodity varieties. In this article, it is demonstrated that tuber-specific expression the native slightly modified MYB transcription factor gene StMtf1(M) activates phenylpropanoid biosynthetic pathway. Compared untransformed controls,...
Edible films have gradually become a research focus for food packaging materials due to variety of benefits, including environmental friendliness, good barrier properties, and carrying capacity. In this experimental study, we used sodium alginate as film-forming substrate, carboxymethylcellulose modifier, glycerol plasticizer, then Lactococcus lactis was added film solutions form bacteriostatic via the tape casting method. With addition lactis, did not significantly change thickness, while...
Some popular processed foods including French fries contain small amounts of toxic acrylamide. Efforts to lower the accumulation this reactive compound by modifying production process have a negative effect on sensory characteristics and are not broadly applicable. This study optimized method developed more than decade ago acrylamide precursors glucose fructose in cold-stored tubers. In contrast original application, which lowered hexose content one-third through constitutive expression an...
The transfer of DNA from Agrobacterium to plant cell nuclei is initiated by a cleavage reaction within the 25-bp right border Ti plasmids. In an effort develop all-native transformation vectors, 50 putative alternatives were identified in both expressed sequence tags and genomic DNA. Efficacy tests tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) model system demonstrated that 14 these elements displayed at least 50% activity conventional borders. Four most effective plant-derived found be associated with...
Abstract An important component of conventional sense, antisense, and double-strand RNA-based gene silencing constructs is the transcriptional terminator. Here, we show that this regulatory element becomes obsolete when fragments are positioned between two oppositely oriented functionally active promoters. The resulting convergent transcription triggers at least as effective unidirectional promoter-to-terminator transcription. In addition to short, variably sized, nonpolyadenylated RNAs,...
(1) Background: Improving feed efficiency and the vitality of reproductive system in late stage egg-laying period is great significance for prolonging cycle improving egg quality. In present study, a new flavonoid, which was extracted from kudzu leaf, chosen to investigate its effects on productive performance quality late-laying hens. (2) Methods: A total 360 500-day-old Hy-Line Brown layer hens were randomly divided into control treatment group (no KLF supplementation), groups that...
Summary The health‐promoting property of diets rich in fruits and vegetables is based, part, on the additive synergistic effects multiple antioxidants. In an attempt to further enhance food quality, we introduced into crops capability synthesize a yellow antioxidant, aureusidin, that normally produced only by some ornamental plants. For this purpose, snapdragon ( Antirrhinum majus ) chalcone 4′‐ O ‐glucosyltransferase Am4’CGT aureusidin synthase AmAs1 genes, which catalyse synthesis from...
Suspension cell cultures of Solanum nigrum were grown in the presence six different chloroplast DNA synthesis inhibitors order to determine whether pool size (cpDNA) could be selectively reduced relative nuclear content. One effects was a reduction growth and viability. Cell (fresh weight) 50% (in 8 day cultures) by: 100 micromolar bisbenzimide, ethidium bromide, 0.3 5-fluordeoxyuridine (Fudr), 200 nalidixic acid, 30 novobiocin, or 10 micrograms per milliliter rifampicin. At these...
