  2. Plant genetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_genetics

    An image of multiple chromosomes, taken from many cells. Plant genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity specifically in plants. [1] [2] It is generally considered a field of biology and botany, but intersects frequently with many other life sciences and is strongly linked with the study of information systems.

  3. GUS reporter system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUS_reporter_system

    The GUS system is not the only available gene reporter system for the analysis of promoter activity. Other competing systems are based on e.g. luciferase, GFP, beta-galactosidase, chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT), alkaline phosphatase. The use of one or the other system is mainly dependent on the organism of interest and the imaging and ...

  4. Reporter gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reporter_gene

    In molecular biology, a reporter gene (often simply reporter) is a gene that researchers attach to a regulatory sequence of another gene of interest in bacteria, cell culture, animals or plants. Such genes are called reporters because the characteristics they confer on organisms expressing them are easily identified and measured, or because ...

  5. Bioreporter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioreporter

    The promoter gene in a normal bacterial cell is linked to other genes that are then likewise transcribed and then translated into proteins that help the cell in either combating or adapting to the agent to which it has been exposed. In the case of a bioreporter, these genes, or portions thereof, have been removed and replaced with a reporter gene.

  6. Outline of biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_biology

    Plant genetics – study of heredity and variation in plants; Plant pathology – study of plant diseases; Plant physiology – subdiscipline of botany concerned with the functioning, or physiology, of plants. [1] Cell biology – study of the cell as a complete unit, and the molecular and chemical interactions that occur within a living cell.

  7. Genetic transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_transformation

    The transferred DNA (called T-DNA) is piloted to the plant cell nucleus by nuclear localization signals present in the Agrobacterium protein VirD2, which is covalently attached to the end of the T-DNA at the Right border (RB). Exactly how the T-DNA is integrated into the host plant genomic DNA is an active area of plant biology research.

  8. Genetic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_analysis

    Mendel, who is known as the "father of modern genetics", was inspired to study variation in plants. Between 1856 and 1863, Mendel cultivated and tested some 29,000 pea plants (i.e., Pisum sativum). This study showed that one in four pea plants had purebred recessive alleles, two out of four were hybrid and one out of four were purebred dominant.
