Inheritance, expression, and silencing of a chitinase transgene in rice

1999-03-01

Abstract excerpt

The inheritance and expression of a transgene locus consisting of multiple copies of a rice chitinase gene under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter was studied in the T3 and T4 generations of a transformed line that expressed the chitinase at a high level. All T3 progeny of a homozygous T2 parent expressed the chitinase constitutively at 3 weeks after germination, but a proportion of the progeny had undetectable...
