How does rifampicin act in the selection of agrobacterium?
Rifampicin is an antibiotic that inhibits bacterial RNA polymerase, preventing transcription of essential genes. When used in selection of Agrobacterium, it targets and kills non-transformed cells that do not contain the resistance gene, allowing only transformed cells to survive due to their ability to withstand rifampicin.
Which class does fungi belongs to?
Fungi belong to the Kingdom Fungi.
Yeast and truffles are what type of fungi?
Yeast and truffles are part of the sac fungi. Also included in the sac fungi are penicillium and morels.
What are the Advantages of agrobacterium in plant transformation?
Agrobacterium is efficient at transferring DNA into plant cells, allowing for stable integration of genes. It has a broad host range, infecting a wide variety of plant species. Agrobacterium-mediated transformation results in lower levels of genetic mosaicism compared to other methods, leading to more predictable and reliable gene expression in transformed plants.
Yeasts are members of which of the following a. sac fungi b. club fungi c. imperfect fungi or d. water molds?
a. sac fungi
What is an agrobacterium?
An agrobacterium is a soil bacterium which causes the formation of crown galls in plants.
Why colony of agrobacterium is pink on yeast extract agar media?
The pink color of Agrobacterium colonies on yeast extract agar media is due to the production of a pigment called violacein. The presence of violacein is a characteristic feature of Agrobacterium species and contributes to the pink color of the colonies. This pigment production can help to differentiate Agrobacterium from other bacteria on culture plates.
Which is the organism that is known as geneticengineer?
agrobacterium
What type of bacteria decays plants?
Agrobacterium
What is agrobacterium mediated gene transfer?
transfer of gene with the help of Ti plasmid present in Agrobacterium which has T-dna region by which gene van transfer.
What hormone directly activated vir gene in agrobacterium Ti plasmid?
The hormone that directly activates the vir gene in Agrobacterium Ti plasmid is acetosyringone. It induces the expression of the vir genes, triggering the transfer of T-DNA from Agrobacterium to plant cells.
Does transformation by Agrobacterium work best in monocotyledon plants?
no
Is agrobacterium rhizogenes aerobic or anaerobic in nature?
aeobic
What is an agroinfiltration?
An agroinfiltration is the introduction of a suspension of agrobacterium into a plant to add a specific gene.
Where T DNA and vir region sequence exist?
ends of plasmid of agrobacterium.
Which organism naturally possesses the Ti plasmid?
The Ti plasmid is naturally found in the bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens. This bacterium is known for its ability to transfer genetic material into plant cells, causing the formation of galls or tumors.
What is the generation time of agrobacterium tumefaciens?
Around 6 hours in AB medium with Arabinose.
