A NOVEL DOMINANT SELECTION SYSTEM FOR PLANT TRANSGENICS BASED ON PHOSPHITE METABOLISM CATALYZED BY BACTERIAL ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE

A novel dominant selection system for plant transgenics based on phosphite metabolism catalyzed by bacterial alkaline phosphatase

Selective markers are generally indispensable in plant genetic transformation, of which the frequently used are of antibiotic or herbicide resistance.However, the increasing concerns on transgenic biosafety have encouraged many new and safe selective markers emerging, with an eminent representative as phosphite Derby Shoes (Phi) in combination to i
