Despite rapid doubling time, simple architecture and ease of metabolic labelling, a lack of
genetic tools in the L emnaceae (duckweed) has impeded the full implementation of this …

Techniques developed for plant tissue culture and micropropagation are important enabling
technologies that should help meet the demand for more efficient agricultural and …

The unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a model organism that provides an
opportunity to understand the evolution and functional biology of the lineage that includes …

Transformation in grass species has traditionally relied on immature embryos and has
therefore been limited to a few major Poaceae crops. Other transformation explants …

The unicellular green algae C hlamydomonas reinhardtii is a classic model for the study of
flagella/cilia and photosynthesis, and it has recently been exploited for producing …

Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a unicellular green alga. It is a model system for studying
functions of the chloroplast, basal body and flagella. The completion of the Chlamydomonas …

Lemna, a member of the Lemnaceae or duckweed family, is a small aquatic plant that can

Diatoms are major components of phytoplankton and play a key role in the ecology of
aquatic ecosystems. These algae are of great scientific importance for a wide variety of …

Cotton is an important economic crop worldwide. Due to its long growth cycle, large genome
size and recalcitrance to stable transformation, traditional methods for the analysis of gene …

Conventional genetic transformation is a huge obstacle to the efficient development and
