Modification of plant hormone biosynthesis through the introduction of bacterial genes is a
natural form of genetic engineering, which has been exploited in numerous studies on …

'RNA silencing'is a highly conserved mechanism leading to suppression of gene expression
through nucleotide sequence‐specific interactions that are mediated by 21–24 nucleotide …

The application of antisense transgenes in plants is a powerful tool to inhibit gene
expression. The underlying mechanism of this inhibition is still poorly understood. High …

Transgene expression was analysed in Arabidopsis T‐DNA transformants carrying defined
numbers and arrangement of different reporter genes. All transgenes were placed under the …

▪ Abstract Homology-dependent gene silencing (HDGS) is a ubiquitous phenomenon
among fungi, plants, and animals. Gene silencing can be triggered and can affect artificially …

Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) is a form of stable but potentially reversible
epigenetic modification, which frequently occurs in transgenic plants. The interaction in trans …

The Crepis palaestina cDNA Cpal2 encodes a Δ12-epoxygenase that can catalyse the
synthesis of 12, 13-epoxy-cis-9-octadecenoic acid (18: 1E) from linoleic acid (18: 2). When …

It is now routine to construct trangenes with defined promoters and terminators and express
them in a variety of organisms. However, some introduced transgenes are not expressed as …

Gene silencing through the increased degradation of mRNA appears to represent a novel
cellular pathway that is functional in a broad range of organisms. Recent work has …

The application of RNA-mediated resistance against Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) by
using single transgene constructs generally results in only a small portion of resistant …
