Markers for Chloroplast Transformation | Biotechnology
In this article we will discuss about the markers for chloroplast transformation. Generally, dominant antibiotic resistant genes are used in plastid transformation. Introduction of antibiotic resistant gene in the plastid genome facilitated the maintenance of high number of plastid genome copies in a cell. Chloroplast transformation invariably and unavoidably produces chimeric tissues, which requires identification of transplastomic cells in order [...]
