Abstract excerpt
The spatial and temporal activity of the entire and individual promoter domains of the rolA gene of Agrobacterium rhizogenes was investigated and correlated with the distinctive features of the phenotypes of transgenic tobacco plants. The GUS assay was performed in the presence of an oxidative catalyst during the development of transgenic plants expressing chimeric genes containing the beta-glucuronidase coding...
