Vegetative effects of RNAi-suppression of the poplar homolog of LEAFY in the field

Creator:

Jacobson, Jeremy

Abstract:

Due to public and regulatory restrictions, genetic containment technology is critical for research and development of transgenic trees in forestry. A multi-year field trial demonstrated that the RNAi-LFY construct successfully induces sexual sterility in 6K10 poplar (Populus alba) without visible effects on vegetative development. However, its limited number of replicates...
