Title: A tale of two integrations, transgene and T-DNA: gene targeting by homologous recombination in rice. Author: Iida S, Terada R. Journal: Curr Opin Biotechnol; 2004 Apr; 15(2):132-8. PubMed ID: 15081051. Abstract: The first successful and reproducible gene targeting by homologous recombination, without the concomitant occurrence of ectopic events, has been reported. This will be a powerful approach for the characterization of gene function in rice, an important crop and a model for other cereal species. Models have been proposed to explain gene replacement by homologous recombination, including a possible model for Agrobacterium-mediated gene targeting using a strong positive-negative selection.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
