Description: The purpose of this research was to analyze the regulatory
pattern of the PUN promoter in the expression
of a marker gene, β-glucoronidase (GUS), within regenerated
tobacco plants. The genes for neomycin
phosphotransferase (NPT II) and GUS were included
in the coding region of the Ti plasmid construct. The
NPTII gene drove antibiotic resistance and was used
to select and identify… more
