Vectors for plant transformation and methods of use
The present invention is directed to a vector for identifying read-through of non-T-DNA in a T-DNA vector. In one embodiment, the vector provides a visually detectable change in the normal appearance of transformants wherein read-through has occurred. In another embodiment, the vector also provides...

Zusammenfassung: | The present invention is directed to a vector for identifying read-through of non-T-DNA in a T-DNA vector. In one embodiment, the vector provides a visually detectable change in the normal appearance of transformants wherein read-through has occurred. In another embodiment, the vector also provides for expression of a readily detectable fluorescent protein that allows for the early detection and elimination of transformants wherein read-through has occurred. In a further aspect, the present invention is directed to a method for detecting read-through of non-T-DNA in plants transformed with a T-DNA vector. In another aspect, the present invention is directed to a method for producing a transgenic plant containing a polynucleotide of interest but being substantially free of non-T-DNA. |
