The cucumber expansin 10 (CsEXP10) gene was previously cloned from young cucumber fruits but its role has not been defined. To determine the role of this gene in plant growth and development, a CsEXP10 gene transformation system was established. The open reading frame of the gene was inserted behind the CaMV35S promoter of vector pCAMBIA1301, and the construct was introduced into tomato plants ...

Solgi T., Moradyar M., Zamani M.R., Motallebi M. (2015): Transformation of canola by chit33 gene towards improving resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Plant Protect. Sci., 51: 6–12. An endochitinase gene (chit33-cDNA) from the biocontrol fungus Trichoderma atroviride was overexpressed under the CaMV35S constitutive promoter in canola (R line Hyola 308). Transformation of cotyledonary petiol...

Dehydrin is known to have an important role in plant response and adaptation abiotic stresses including drought high salinity. Previous research reported the isolation of full-length coding sequence (CDS) DHN1 from sugarcane var. PSJT 941, it shares a homology with DHN genes sorghum other varieties. In this study, CDS was cloned under constitutive CaMV35S promoter transformed into calli mediate...

An extensive analysis of organ and cell size was performed in three different Arabidopsis lines transformed with the early nodulin gene enod40 under control of the CaMV35S promoter. All three transgenic lines presented a significant decrease in the mean size of both epidermal internode and leaf mesophyll cells. Flow cytometric and image analysis of enod40-transfected protoplasts prepared from w...

Hevea brasiliensis is an economically important tree species that provides the only commercial source of natural rubber. The replacement CaMV35S promoter by endogenous polyubiquitin promoters may be a viable way to improve genetic transformation this species. However, no in have been reported yet. Here, we identified three genes HbUBI10.1, HbUBI10.2 and HbUBI10.3, which encode ubiquitin monomer...

Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis ( Gp. ) is an economically important agar-producing red alga applicable in the food and cosmetic industries. The genetic knowledge of this species is, however, limited, tools for studying engineering it are lacking. This has limited understanding its developmental genetics hindered development new strains, developing would allow to tackle these problems. Here, trans...
