摘要:
A method for the rapid evaluation of transgene function in maize plants. The method combines high throughput gene construction methods and high efficiency plant transformation techniques in a specifically developed germplasm. In one as aspect, the method uses quantitative, non-destructive imaging technology applied in a portion or throughout the entire life cycle of a test plant to evaluate agronomic traits of interest in a controlled, statistically relevant greenhouse environment. The method reports transgene function early in the transgenic variety development process, eliminating the need to generate seed necessary for multi-location replicated field trials.
