Plants Appear To Cluster The Genes Needed For Defense
Rated • 1 review • genetics, plants, biotechnology • sciencedaily.com
From the page: "John Innes Centre scientists have found that plants may cluster the genes needed to make defence chemicals. Their findings may provide a way to discover new natural plant products of use as drugs, herbicides or crop protectants. Using a gene cluster that makes an antifungal compound in oats as a template, they uncovered a previously unknown gene cluster making a related compound in a very different species, and now want to extend the search to other plants."

Rice Breeding: Highly Specific Gene Silencing Successful...
Rated • 1 review • agriculture, genetics, biotechnology • sciencedaily.com
From the page: "magine you are a rice breeder and one day within a large field you discover a plant that has just the characteristics you have been looking for. You happily take your special plant to the laboratory where you find out that the spontaneous, beneficial event was due to inactivation of a single gene. This is a great observation; however, there are many different strains grown in different parts of the world, well adapted to the particular region they grow in. How can you now transfer the inactivated gene to other strains of rice?"
