Journal ArticleDOI
Visual detection of transposition of the maize element activator (ac) in tobacco seedlings.
TL;DR: A bacterial streptomycin resistance gene (SPT) was engineered to make it possible to detect visually the transposition of the maize transposon Activator (Ac) in tobacco, and constitutes an efficient marker for selecting plants that have undergone transposition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid chloroplast segregation and recombination of mitochondrial DNA in Brassica cybrids
Alison Morgan,Pal Maliga +1 more
TL;DR: Physical mapping revealed recombination in a region which is not normally involved in the formation of subgenomic mtDNA circles in Brassica cybrids, and the role of treatments used to facilitate the recovery of cy hybrids, and of organelle compatibility in hybrid cytoplasm formation is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fusion-mediated combination of Ogura-type cytoplasmic male sterility with Brassica napus plastids using X-irradiated CMS protoplasts.
TL;DR: Mitochondria of this plant are non-parental as revealed by DNA-DNA hybridization using a species specific probe which results in loss of the sensitivity to low temperatures associated with R. sativus plastids in the male sterile parent.
Journal ArticleDOI
A dominant nuclear streptomycin resistance marker for plant cell transformation
TL;DR: A new genetic marker for plant cell transformation has been developed that is based on the expression of the enzyme streptomycin phosphotransferase (SPT), and confers the ability to form green colonies on a selective medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved expression of streptomycin resistance in plants due to a deletion in the streptomycin phosphotransferase coding sequence.
TL;DR: An improved SPT construct is described that utilizes a mutant Tn5 SPT gene that encodes a protein with a two amino acid deletion close to its COOH-terminus that was comparable to kanamycin resistance in N. tabacum.
