Genetically Engineered Plants Using MYB Transcription Factor

Summary

Researchers at Purdue University have developed the first known regulator of plant transformation. An Arabidopsis MYB transcription factor (MTF) increases the susceptibility of Agrobacterium transformation, allowing for more efficient plant transformation to generate genetically engineered plants. Since MTF is a diverse family of transcription factors, this technology could be used in diverse plant species to generate resilient plants that are suitable for growth under a variety of environmental conditions.

Technology Benefits

Easier genetic transformation Increased transformation efficiency

Technology Application

Generation of genetically modified crop plants Discovery of MTFs across diverse species
