What are the different vectors available to conduct plant genetic transformation?
Researchers can introduce loss-of-function mutations into genesusing the CRISPR/Cas9 technology . Ifyou used this technology to produce the following homozygous loss-of-function mutations in a winter-annual strain of Arabidopsis, describe how each mutation would affect flowering and the requirement for vernalization.A. FLCB. VIN3C. COLDAIR
Agrobacterium-mediated plant transformation is a method used to create transgenic plants.

- Genetic engineering of plants provides an opportunity to alter their properties or performance in order to improve upon their utility. Such technology may be used to modify the expression of genes already present in the plants, or to introduce new genes of other species with which the plant cannot be bred conventionally. In fact, humans have engaged in genetic manipulation for millennia, producing plant and animal varieties through selective breeding and hybridization that significantly modify genomes of organisms. How has this technology created novel genetic information by specific alteration of cloned genes? (provide an example). Why do you think modern genetic engineering, has met with so much opposition? Should some forms of genetic engineering be of greater concern than others? Explain. In your response provide a specific example from literature to describe the implications of this technology (good or bad).arrow_forwardInsert a specific stress-tolerant gene into a tissue cultured plant batch.
