Introductions

Solanum tuberosum Transformation -Lifeasible

Potato, whose scientific name is Solanum tuberosum L., belongs to the annual herbaceous plant of the class Dicotyledon, Solanaceae, and Solanum. It is an economic crop with high yield, strong adaptability, wide distribution, rich nutrition and high economic value, which is suitable for grain, vegetable, feed, and industrial raw material. Potato is vulnerable to a variety of viruses during the growth period, causing germplasm degradation and yield reduction. The development of potato virus-resistant genetic engineering has alleviated this hazard. The improvement of potato quality through genetic engineering has the advantages of clear genes, known products, specific targets, accuracy and rapidity and strong predictability. In addition, the potato reproduces asexually, and the asexual offspring of the transgenic plants do not separate, which brings much convenience to the detection and identification of the transgenic plants.

Services

Lifeasible has established a potato genetic transformation platform. We use Agrobacterium-mediated method or gene gun method to realize potato genetic transformation. Customers can provide target genes, plasmids, Agrobacterium, etc., and we will complete the entire experimental process from constructing vectors to obtaining transgenic vaccines. We can use mature potato varieties to provide large-scale and standardized transgenic technology services, and we can also undertake R&D outsourcing of transformation systems for designated varieties.

Customer provided materials

  • The sequence information or Gene Bank ID of target gene
  • Our company can undertake gene amplification and vector construction services, which are charged separately.

  • Constructed E. coli plasmid vector, but provides clear drug resistance information for screening.
  • Constructed transformation vectors, or entrust our company to construct various vectors, such as gene cloning and expression, silencing, knockout (CRISPR/Cas9), VIGS, etc.
  • Unconventional receptor material

※ We do not accept the transformation service of lethal genes or severely defective genes. If there are any of the above, please inform our company in advance.

Solanum tuberosum transformation methods

  • Agrobacterium-mediated transformation
  • Gene gun bombardment method

Receptor material

  • Recipient species
  • Huaen1 and other species

  • Recipient types
  • Test tube potato

Workflow of potato transformation by Agrobacterium-mediated method

  • Vector construction
  • Potato receptor material cultivation
  • Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation and screening
  • Strong plantlets and rootage of regenerated green seedlings
  • PCR detection of foreign genes in T0 generation transgenic seedlings

Feedback to customers

  • Complete experimental methods, original experimental records, instrument parameters, reagents and consumables information.
  • Pictures of explant infection, directing callus, embryogenic callus, tissue differentiation, plant regeneration, etc.
  • T0 generation transgenic vaccine: If we use the vector and recipient provided by us, there will be 8-10 T0 generation positive vaccines for each transformation experiment; if customers need to use other vectors and recipients, we usually only promise to get T0 generation positive vaccines 6-8 strains.

Service process

Service Process of Solanum tuberosum Transformation - Lifeasible

Project cycle

  • It takes about 4~6 months.

Advantages

  • Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is fast, efficient, and stable, and mainly single-copy insertion.
  • For commonly used potato varieties, sufficient sterile seedlings are prepared all year round, and transformation experiments can be carried out at any time to save customers' time.
  • We have a variety of labeled vectors and media to provide you with a wide range of choices.
  • The technical team engaged in plant genetic transformation for many years guarantees the success rate of the experiment.
  • Complete layout of the biotechnology chain, seamless connection with downstream experiments.
  • Leading technology platform conditions, first-class R&D and production equipment.
  • Personalized customized package service.

※ It should be noted that our service is only used for research.
