Investigators: Gelvin, Stanton B.
Institution: Purdue University
EPA Project Officer: Aja, Hayley
Project Period: July 1, 2002 through June 30, 2004
RFA: The Consortium for Plant Biotechnology Research, Inc., Environmental Research and Technology Transfer Program (2001) RFA Text | Recipients Lists
Research Category: Targeted Research , Hazardous Waste/Remediation
Objective:
The objectives of this research project are to: (1) screen T-DNA mutagenized Arabidopsis libraries for resistant to Agrobacterium transformation (rat) mutants; (2) clone T-DNA/plant DNA junctions from various rat mutants; (3) overexpress rat genes in plants to determine whether the resulting plants show enhanced transformation susceptibility; (4) determine the expression patterns of various Arabidopsis histone H2A promoters; and (5) screen T-DNA activation-tagged Arabidopsis libraries for hyper-susceptible to Agrobacterium transformation (hat) mutants.
