Inheritance and stability of the virus-resistant gene in the progeny of transgenic sweet potato
2002-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Viral diseases of sweet potato are very prevalent and often seriously damaging to the plants. In particular, the severe strain of the sweet potato feathery mottle virus (SPFMV-S) causes 'obizyo-sohi' disease in Japan. In order to confer viral resistance against SPFMV using current biotechnology, a transgenic sweet potato has been produced, introducing hygromycin-resistant (hpt) and SPFMV-S coat protein (CP) genes,...
