Figure 1 in Agrobacterium-mediated gene delivery and transient expression in the red macroalga Chondrus crispus

Figure 1: Features of binary vectors for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. (A) Chondrus-specific expression cassette. Salient features: 1.812 kbp GUS gene modified to match the favoured codon usage of Chondrus, promoter region of the Chondrus actin gene, nopaline synthase (NOS) gene terminator from Genbank accession AF502128.1; (B) Binary vector pCAMBIA 1301. Salient features: GUS gene with castor bean catalase intron driven by a CAMV 35 S promoter and terminated by NOS.
