Introduction of a Chimeric Chalcone Synthase Gene into Petunia Results in Reversible Co-Suppression of Homologous Genes in trans.

TL;DR: Somatic reversion of plants with white flowers to phenotypically parental violet flowers was associated with a coordinate rise in the steady-state levels of the mRNAs produced by both the endogenous and the introduced CHS genes, indicating that expression of the introduced chalcone synthase gene was not alone sufficient for suppression of endogenous CHS transcript levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modification of Flower Color in Florist's Chrysanthemum: Production of a White-Flowering Variety Through Molecular Genetics

TL;DR: The white–flowering trait was maintained well through vegetative propagation; however, during growth of individual white-flowering plants, some pink color was found in some flowers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development and application of a health-based framework for informing regulatory action in relation to exposure of microplastic particles in California drinking water

TL;DR: In this article , the authors report on the outcome of a virtual expert workshop conducted between October 2020 and October 2021 in which a comprehensive review of mammalian hazard studies was conducted, and evaluate the feasibility and confidence in deriving a human health-based threshold value to inform development of the State of California's monitoring and management strategy for microplastics in drinking water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Screening and prioritization of nano- and microplastic particle toxicity studies for evaluating human health risks – development and application of a toxicity study assessment tool

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors developed and applied a toxicity screening assessment tool (NMP-TSAT) for evaluating human health effects studies against a suite of quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) criteria for both in vivo and in vitro studies.

Carnation plants and methods for their transformation and propagation

TL;DR: In this article, a cocultivation with Agrobacterium cells carrying an exogenous DNA sequence is described, in which callus formation on the plant material is initiated by initiating root formation and subsequently transferring the rooted shoots to soil.
