Objetivo A selection system is proposed for plant transformation that is exclusively based on genetic information already present in the host plant and not requiring anti-biotic resistance genes. Driving force for this approach is the public concern about a potential spread of antibiotic resistance genes in soil and intestinal bacteria possibly accentuated by the agricultural use of transgenic crops. The projects based upon truncated tubules lacking the binding site for carbonate herbicides. The expression of this truncated tubule is driven by the homologous tubule pro-motor within a DNA fragment devoid from exogenous sequences (minimal expression unit). The suitability of this selection system is demonstrated for rice as a model system for Graining crops Ámbito científico natural sciencesbiological sciencesmicrobiologybacteriologynatural sciencesbiological sciencesgeneticsDNAnatural scienceschemical sciencesinorganic chemistryinorganic compoundsmedical and health sciencesbasic medicinepharmacology and pharmacypharmaceutical drugsantibioticsmedical and health sciencesbasic medicinepharmacology and pharmacydrug resistanceantibiotic resistance Programa(s) FP5-LIFE QUALITY - Specific Programme for research, technological development and demonstration on "Quality of life and management of living resources", 1998-2002 Tema(s) 1.1.1.-3. - Key action The "Cell factory" Convocatoria de propuestas Data not available Régimen de financiación CSC - Cost-sharing contracts Coordinador ALBERT-LUDWIGS-UNIVERSITAET FREIBURG Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección Schaenzlestrasse 1 79104 FREIBURG (IN BREISGAU) Alemania Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos Participantes (2) Ordenar alfabéticamente Ordenar por aportación de la UE Ampliar todo Contraer todo FRAUNHOFER IAF Alemania Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección Tullastr. 72 79108 MÜNCHEN Ver en el mapa Enlaces Sitio web Opens in new window Coste total Sin datos NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL OF ITALY Italia Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección Via E.Bassini 15 20133 MILANO Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos
