Description: Advancements in biotechnology have allowed us to
study genetics and plant physiology by engineering
transgenic plants. For our research we transformed
Micro-Tom, a tomato variety developed for use in
genetic research, using Agrobacterium mediated
transformation. Within a time span of fourteen weeks,
we inserted two distinct plasmid constructs (pCAMBIA2301
and E1492). Plants have the unique… more
