Agrobacterium-based vectors: a review
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
Using a vector is needed for transferring a foreign DNA into a host cell. The vectors are mostly DNA molecules and sometimes have the essential factors for expressing gene. The suitable vector is selected based on the type of host cell and objective of experiment. Gene transferring improves by genetic engineering. Development of cloning vectors for higher plants was in the 1980s. The use of Agrobacterium is the most effective method of gene transferring to plants. In The article, we try to introduce Agrobacterium-mediated vector and virulence mechanism.
