Abstract Some transgenic crops can introgress genes into other varieties of the crop, to related weeds or themselves remain as ‘volunteer’ weeds, potentially enhancing invasiveness weediness resulting offspring. The presently suggested mechanisms for transgene containment allow low frequency gene release (leakage), requiring mitigation continued spread. Transgenic (TM), where a desired primary is tandemly coupled with mitigating that are positive neutral crop but deleterious hybrids and...
Abstract Background One theoretical explanation for the relatively poor performance of Brassica rapa (weed) × napus (crop) transgenic hybrids suggests that hybridization imparts a negative genetic load. Consequently, in load could overshadow any benefits fitness enhancing transgenes and become limiting factor hybrid persistence. Two types were analyzed this study: random/linkage-derived load, directly incorporated using mitigation (TM) strategy. In order to measure effects random...
Summary Transgenic oilseed rape ( Brassica napus ) plants may remain as ‘volunteer’ weeds in following crops, complicating cultivation and contaminating crop yield. Volunteers can become feral well act a genetic bridge for the transfer of transgenes to weedy relatives. mitigation using genes that are positive or neutral crop, but deleterious weeds, should prevent volunteer establishment, previously intimated tobacco Nicotiana tabacum model. A transgenically mitigated (TM), dwarf,...
Summary Transgenic oilseed rape ( Brassica napus ) plants can interbreed with nearby weedy rapa , potentially enhancing the weediness and/or invasiveness of subsequent hybrid offspring. We have previously demonstrated that transgenic mitigation effectively reduces fitness dwarf and herbicide‐resistant B. volunteers. now report efficacy such a tandem construct, including primary gene dwarfing mitigator gene, to preclude risks establishment in related weed its backcross progeny. The...
Transient assay systems using protoplasts have been utilized in several plant species and are a powerful tool for rapid functional gene analysis biochemical manipulations. A protoplast system has not used switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.), even though it is bioenergy crop that received considerable attention. Here we report the first protocol to isolate large numbers of viable from both leaves roots two genotypes. Furthermore, demonstrate transient expression PEG-mediated DNA uptake isolated...
The NEP1 gene encoding a fungal toxin that successfully conferred hypervirulence when transformed into Colletotrichum coccodes (Wallr.) Hughes attacking Abutilon theophrasti (L.) Medic. was tested to ascertain if it would enhance pathogenicity of Fusarium species Orobanche aegyptiaca Pers. parasitising crops.None the oxysporum (#CNCM I-1622) transformants hypervirulent. new but unnamed sp. I-1621--previously identified as F. arthrosporioides) killed more rapidly than wild type. Transformed...
The establishment of an efficient in vitro propagation system for the conservation Mediterranean Mandragora autumnalis is highly desirable due to its scarcity, besides potential medicinal and pharmacological properties. In a separate unpublished study, this species has proved be resistant laboratory plant regeneration from vegetative tissue cultures; therefore, alternative decoated seed (i.e., endosperm enclosed zygotic embryo) germination approach was conducted study. Pre-cold treatment M....
Nuclear DNA content and genome size are key factors in biology biodiversity, have important implications modern molecular genetic studies. Diesel tree (Copaifera officinalis L.) switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L. cv. Alamo) attractive sources for biofuels production, including biodiesel cellulosic ethanol. On the other hand, horseweed (Conyza canadensis is one of most agriculturally problematic herbicide-resistant weeds worldwide. The nuclear contents (expressed as 1C values) these...
