This document provides a summary of a seminar on DNA containing plant viruses. It discusses the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV) and Gemini virus. CaMV is a double-stranded DNA virus that infects members of the Brassicaceae family and causes mosaic symptoms. It replicates via reverse transcription. Gemini virus is a single-stranded DNA virus that infects many economically important crops and causes stunting and yellowing. It replicates via a rolling circle mechanism and is transmitted by insects like leafhoppers and whiteflies. Prevention of both viruses focuses on controlling their insect vectors and disinfecting equipment to avoid mechanical transmission.
The document summarizes how Agrobacterium tumefaciens is used for plant genetic engineering. It describes the key components of the Ti plasmid, including the T-DNA, vir genes, and opine catabolism genes. It explains that the Ti plasmid is modified by deleting tumor-causing genes and inserting a gene of interest, along with selectable markers. The modified plasmid is transferred to A. tumefaciens via triparental mating and then used to transform plant cells. Transformed cells are selected using antibiotics and regenerated into transgenic plants.

Microinjection is a technique for introducing DNA into plant cells by directly injecting it through the cell membrane using a microscopic needle. The document describes microinjection and its application in crop improvement. It details the microinjection process, including preparing the needle and holding the cell, precisely injecting the DNA, and recovering transgenic plants. Advantages are precise delivery and ability to introduce various DNA structures. Disadvantages include being costly, limited to protoplasts, and slow. As a case study, cotton plants were transformed via microinjecting a modified cry1Ia gene into flower ovaries, resulting in a transgenic cotton line with the full cry1Ia gene integrated into its genome.
Cauliflower Mosaic Virus is a pararetrovirus that infects plants in the brassicaceae family like cauliflower. It has an icosahedral capsid containing a circular double stranded DNA genome around 80kb in size. The virus replicates through reverse transcription, with its DNA entering the nucleus and being transcribed by the host polymerase. The virus has several open reading frames that encode for structural, movement and other proteins. While it can be used as a vector to insert foreign genes into plants, its capacity is limited to a few hundred nucleotides before the foreign DNA is expelled.
This presentation gives an brief idea about the applications of genetic engineering which is of at most importance to humans. Provided along with this slide is an example which makes it easier to understand the concept.
Simian virus 40 (SV40) is a polyomavirus that was first isolated from monkey kidney cell cultures used to produce the poliovirus vaccine. It has a small circular DNA genome wrapped in histone proteins. The genome contains early and late protein coding genes as well as regulatory sequences. The early proteins are non-structural while the late proteins form the viral capsid. The SV40 genome can be modified to replace the early protein coding genes with a gene of interest for gene therapy purposes. A recombinant SV40 viral vector offers advantages such as the ability to transduce both dividing and resting cells with high efficiency and provide long-lasting transgene expression.

The document discusses research on the intracellular movement of Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV) particles. It finds that the CaMV P6 protein forms motile inclusion bodies that traffic along the plant cell's actin microfilaments and stabilize microtubules. The P6 inclusion bodies are hypothesized to function as "virion factories" where CaMV particles assemble before being transported to plasmodesmata for movement between cells. A yeast two-hybrid screen identified the host protein CHUP1, which mediates chloroplast movement along microfilaments, as interacting with P6. Silencing CHUP1 reduced the rate of CaMV lesion development, supporting its role in P6 inclusion body movement.
Microinjection is a gene transfer technique where DNA is directly injected into cells using a fine glass micropipette. It is highly efficient at the individual cell level and was originally used for transfecting hard-to-transfect cells. The procedure involves holding a cell using one pipette while another pipette is used to inject DNA into the cell's cytoplasm or nucleus. It allows for stable transfection efficiencies of around 20% and is used to generate transgenic animals by injecting DNA into oocytes, eggs or embryos. However, it is time-consuming and can only be done for a small number of cells.
This document discusses various cloning vectors that have been developed over time for use in genetic engineering, including plasmids, bacteriophages, cosmids, yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs), bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs), P1 artificial chromosomes (PACs), and human artificial chromosomes (HACs). YACs were developed in 1987 but have issues with chimerism and instability. BACs were developed in 1992 and overcome many of the limitations of YACs. PACs were developed in 1994 and combine features of P1 vectors and BACs. HACs were first constructed in 1997 and provide a system for gene expression studies in human cells.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a soil bacterium that can transfer DNA fragments called T-DNA from its tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid into the genome of plant cells. Scientists have harnessed this natural ability of A. tumefaciens by modifying its Ti plasmid to replace the tumor-causing genes with a gene of interest. This disarmed Ti plasmid, along with helper plasmids containing virulence genes, allows for the stable integration and expression of the new gene in plant cells. Common transformation methods using A. tumefaciens involve culturing plant explants like leaf disks with Agrobacteria containing the modified Ti plasmid, then regenerating transgenic plants from the transformed cells
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is commonly used to genetically modify dicot plants through its ability to transfer DNA to plant cells. It causes crown gall disease by transferring oncogenic T-DNA from its tumor-inducing plasmid into wounded plant cells. The T-DNA encodes genes that cause tumor formation and the production of opines, which the bacteria can use as nutrients. The binary vector system was developed to overcome challenges with manipulating large Ti plasmids, allowing foreign genes to be stably introduced between the T-DNA borders and transferred to plant cells. Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is now widely used to produce transgenic plants.

This bacterium has a large plasmid that induces tumor, and for this reason, it was named tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid.
This is process of altering the genetic makeup of an organism using Recombinant DNA Technology.
The ultimate objective of modern plant breeding is to improve a top variety in one single additional character in a predictable and precise manner without disturbing the rest of the genome. Today this is being realised through examples of successful transfer of specific traits into higher plants by gene transfer.
Techniques that open up to the plant breeder the possibility of transferring in a planned manner characters from one organism to another have been developed in microbial genetics. It should be stressed right at the outset that the expression “gene” has different meanings in agriculture and in molecular biology.
Gene Transfer Methods:
The gene transfer techniques in plant genetic transformation are broadly grouped into two categories:
I. Vector-mediated gene transfer
II. Direct or vector less DNA transfer
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a soil bacterium that causes crown gall disease in plants. It does this by transferring a segment of its tumor-inducing plasmid (Ti plasmid) called T-DNA into the plant's DNA. The T-DNA contains genes that cause uncontrolled cell growth. Researchers developed techniques using the Ti plasmid and Agrobacterium to genetically transform plants by replacing the tumor-causing genes with desired genes. This involves either a binary vector system with the T-DNA on a separate small plasmid, or co-integration of a new plasmid containing the gene of interest into the Ti plasmid. Transformed plants can be regenerated from infected plant cells or tissues.
Genetically modified plants can be created through Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer. Agrobacterium contains a Ti plasmid that can transfer DNA fragments into plant cells. Researchers have developed artificial Ti plasmids and binary vector systems to insert desirable genes. The binary system uses a disarmed helper Ti plasmid containing vir genes and a separate vector with the gene of interest. The cointegrate system allows the vector to recombine and integrate into the Ti plasmid. These systems allow Agrobacterium to transfer genes into plant genomes without causing tumors. Other gene transfer methods include particle bombardment and protoplast transformation. Molecular tests can identify transgenes in GM crops.
Agrobacterium mediated gene transfer in plantsAAMIR RAINA
1) Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a soil bacterium that causes crown gall disease in dicot plants by transferring oncogenic DNA (T-DNA) from its Ti plasmid into the plant genome.
2) The T-DNA contains genes that produce hormones causing uncontrolled cell division and the formation of tumors.
3) By removing the oncogenic genes and inserting foreign DNA between the border repeats, the Ti plasmid can be used as a vector to stably introduce foreign genes into plant genomes through the natural plant-Agrobacterium interaction and T-DNA transfer process.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a soil bacterium that naturally transfers DNA to plant cells and causes crown gall disease. It contains a tumor-inducing plasmid (Ti plasmid) that can be engineered to transfer foreign genes of interest into plant genomes. This process, called Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, is commonly used in genetic engineering due to its high efficiency. The Ti plasmid contains T-DNA that is transferred to plant cells, along with virulence genes that facilitate transfer without being transferred themselves. Transformed plants are regenerated from cultured plant cells or tissues containing the novel genes. Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is useful for genetic engineering but has limitations such as a narrow host range and time-consuming
Agrobacteria are soil bacteria that can transfer genes to plant genomes. They contain Ti plasmids which transfer a segment of DNA (T-DNA) into the host plant genome. This causes tumors and induces the plant to produce unique amino acids called opines that the bacteria can use as nutrients. The Ti plasmid and bacterial chromosome work together with virulence genes on the plasmid producing proteins needed for T-DNA transfer. The T-DNA is processed and transferred via a T-strand into the plant cell nucleus where it integrates randomly. This process allows genetic engineering of plants through Agrobacterium.
1. Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a soil bacteria that causes crown gall disease in plants by transferring a segment of DNA (T-DNA) from its tumor-inducing plasmid (Ti plasmid) into the plant genome.
2. The T-DNA contains oncogenes that cause tumor formation as well as genes for producing nutrients called opines that the bacteria can use.
3. Ti plasmids are modified to create disarmed vectors for plant transformation by deleting the oncogenes from the T-DNA. Binary vectors further separate the T-DNA and virulence genes into two plasmids.
Agrobacterium and other methods of plant transformation including gene gun, i...PABOLU TEJASREE
The process of transfer, integration and expression of transgene in the host cells is known as genetic transformation. A foreign gene (transgene) encoding the trait must be incorporated into plant cells, along with a "cassette" of extra genetic material to add a desirable trait to a crop. The cassette includes a sequence of DNA called a "promoter", which determines where and when the foreign gene is expressed in the host, and a "marker gene" which allows breeders to determine by screening or selection which plants contain the inserted gene. For example, marker genes may make plants resistant to antibiotics not used routinely (e.g., agrimycin, kanamycin) or tolerant of some herbicides.
Genetically modified crops can be created through transgenic approaches using Agrobacterium tumefaciens. A. tumefaciens contains a tumor-inducing plasmid that allows it to transfer DNA fragments into plant cells. Researchers have developed methods to modify this plasmid to transfer desirable genes instead of tumor-causing ones. The modified plasmid is introduced into A. tumefaciens along with the gene of interest, and the bacteria is used to infect plant cells and transfer the new gene. This allows crops to be engineered for traits like pest resistance, herbicide tolerance, or improved nutrition more efficiently than traditional breeding methods.
Agrobacterium and plant viruses can be used as biological vectors for plant transformation. Agrobacterium mediates transformation via its tumor-inducing plasmid, using virulence genes to transfer T-DNA containing the gene of interest into the plant genome. Plant viruses can also act as gene vectors by engineering viral genomes to contain and deliver foreign genes. Retroviruses have been developed as viral vectors for animal gene transfer due to their ability to stably integrate into the host chromosome.
This document summarizes Agrobacterium-mediated plant transformation. It describes how the soil bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens causes crown gall disease in plants by transferring oncogenic T-DNA from its Ti plasmid into the plant genome. Scientists have exploited this natural process to develop transformation systems where they insert new genes between the border sequences of disarmed Ti plasmids, allowing transfer of the recombinant T-DNA into plant cells. While effective in dicots, transformation of monocots proved more difficult due to their limited regeneration ability, though biolistic methods using microprojectile bombardment have succeeded in some important crop species.
What are an expression vector? Detailed description of plant gene structure. Plant expression vector systems are generally consists of Ri and Ti plasmids.
The other vectors which are generally used are DNA and RNA viruses.
1) Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a soil bacterium that can transfer DNA fragments (T-DNA) from its tumor-inducing plasmid into plant cells.
2) The T-DNA is flanked by left and right border sequences and encodes genes that cause plant cells to form tumors and produce nutrients for the bacteria.
3) Upon detection of wounded plant cells, genes on the bacterial plasmid and chromosome mediate T-DNA processing and transfer into the plant cell nucleus where it integrates randomly.
This document summarizes Agrobacterium-mediated plant genetic transformation. It describes how Agrobacterium transfers DNA (T-DNA) from its tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid into the plant genome, causing crown gall disease. The T-DNA contains genes that cause plants to produce unique amino acids called opines, which the bacteria can use for food. Early transformation systems involved directly modifying the Ti plasmid, but this was limited. The binary vector system separates the T-DNA from virulence genes, allowing for easier genetic engineering. The co-integration strategy first clones the gene of interest into an E. coli vector before recombining into a Ti plasmid, but requires long homologous regions between plasmids.
Tube feeding formulas can be made of intact proteins, protein hydrolysates, carbohydrates like starch or sugars, and fats from vegetable oils or butter. They aim to provide nutrients and be isotonic to match body fluids. Carbohydrates most influence osmolality as they are rapidly digested. Formulas are tailored to specific conditions, using different macronutrient balances. Tube feeding can be given through nasogastric tubes short-term or gastrostomy tubes for long-term use. Total parenteral nutrition provides nutrients intravenously and includes crystalline amino acids, dextrose, lipid emulsions, vitamins and minerals. It is reserved for when enteral nutrition is not possible.

Electrophoresis is a technique used to separate and sometimes purify macromolecules - especially proteins and nucleic acids - that differ in size, charge or conformation. As such, it is one of the most widely-used techniques in biochemistry and molecular biology
Gel electrophoresis is a procedure that separates molecules on the basis of their rate of movement through a gel under the influence of an electrical field.
Methods & Types
Therapeutic diets modify normal diets to meet patient needs and support recovery. They include clear liquid, full liquid, soft, and pureed diets. Clear liquid diets provide 200-500 calories and are used after surgery or for nausea/vomiting. Full liquid diets provide adequate nutrition except for iron, using six small meals. Soft diets are easier to chew and swallow than normal foods. Pureed diets blend all foods for patients who have difficulty swallowing. Tube feeding provides nutrition for patients unable to eat orally, using natural liquids, blended solid foods, or commercial formulas.
Molecular analysis of plants transformed biolistically in general reveals a complex pattern of trans-gene, indicating the integration of multiple copies of the bombarded DNA.
Bioinformatics is the branch of life science that deals with the use of mathematical, statistical and computer methods to analyze biological and biochemical data.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

2. Plant TransformationMethods
“It first has to enter the plant cell by penetrating the plant cell wall and the plasma
membrane and then must reach the nucleus and integrate into the resident
chromosomes.”
Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
Particle bombardment.
3. The AgrobacteriumSystem
A member of the eubacterial family Rhizobiaceae.
The organism responsible for the elicitation of crown gall
tumors in plants.
formation of these
Tumors occurs as a result of bacterial infection, usually at
wound sites, on many dicotyledonous and some
monocotyledonous plants,
4. The AgrobacteriumSystem
Armin Braun demonstrated
that tumor cells are
transformed and that the
uncontrolled proliferation of
the tumor cells was not
dependent on the continuous
presence of Agrobacterium,
implying the existence of a
transformation-inducing
principle.
8. The AgrobacteriumSystem
heterologous genes with
the appropriate
regulatory regions into
the T-DNA region and
showed that foreign
genes became integrated
and functionally
expressed in plant cells.
10. The AgrobacteriumSystem
(a) In a significant percentage of the transformation events, a
single copy of the T-DNA is integrated into the chromosomes
of the transformed cell.
(b) Numerous vector systems are now available containing the T-
DNA borders and various reporter and selectable marker
genes, allowing researchers to choose the most appropriate
combination to insert heterologous genes.
(c) It is possible to transfer large fragments of DNA, including
bacterial artificial chromosomes.
(d) Transformation in planta, without the necessity of tissue
culture, is possible in some species such as Arabidopsis
thaliana and Medicago trunculata
11. Transformationprocess
(a) T-DNA border sequences, which demarcate the DNA
segment (T-DNA) to be transferred into the plant genome.
(b) vir genes (virulence genes), which are required for
transferring the T-DNA region to the plant but are not
themselves transferred.
(c) modified T-DNA region where the genes that cause crown
gall formation are removed and replaced with the genes of
interest.
