The below mentioned article provides a short note on the genomic and cDNA libraries in genetic engineering. A genomic library is a collection of independently isolated vector linked DNA fragments derived from a single organism. It contains at least one copy of every DNA sequence in the genome. An ideal library is one that represents all of the sequences with [...]
The following points highlight the four main applications of biotechnology in agriculture:- 1. Micro-propagation 2. Induction and Selection of Mutant 3. Production of Somatic Hybrids 4. Production of Transgenic Plants. Application # 1. Micro-propagation: Mass propagation of crop and forest plants is an important application of micro-propagation technique. The development of embryos from somatic cells in culture resulted in artificial [...]
