Agrobacterium strains transfer a single-strand form of T-DNA (T-strands) and Virulence (Vir)
effector proteins to plant cells. Following transfer, T-strands likely form complexes with Vir …

Polyploidy is a prominent process in plants and has been significant in the evolutionary
history of vertebrates and other eukaryotes. In plants, interdisciplinary approaches …

There is growing recognition that many phenolic secondary metabolites present in foodstuffs
may possibly exert beneficial effects on human health. This may to some degree be …

Cytogenetics plays an important role in understanding the chromosomal and genetic
architecture of plant species. Plant Cytogenetics, Third Edition follows the tradition of its …

International consensus has been reached on the principles regarding evaluation of the
food safety of genetically modified plants. The concept of substantial equivalence has been …

Systemic, posttranscriptional silencing of transgenes in Nicotiana benthamiana was initiated
in localized regions of the plant by introduction of transgene-homologous DNA fragments …

The commercialisation of GM crops in Europe is practically non-existent at the present time.
The European Commission has instigated changes to the regulatory process to address the …

Nuclear processes that silence plant transgenes are being revealed by analyses of natural
triggers of epigenetic modifications, particularly cytosine methylation, and by comparisons of …

To analyze genomic changes resulting from double‐strand break (DSB) repair, transgenic
tobacco plants were obtained that carried in their genome a restriction site of the rare cutting …

We compared rice transgenic plants obtained by Agrobacterium-mediated and particle
bombardment transformation by carrying out molecular analyses of the T 0, T 1 and T 2 …
