摘要:
Methods for the targeted integration of nucleotide sequences into a plant are provided. Transfer cassettes comprising nucleotide sequences of interest flanked by non-identical recombination sites are used to transform a plant comprising a target site. The target site contains at least a set of non-identical recombination sites corresponding to those on the transfer cassette. Exchange of the nucleotide sequences flanked by the recombination sites is effected by a recombinase.

Compositions for the targeted integration of nucleotide sequences into a plant are provided. Plants and plant cells having multiple transfer cassettes stacked at precise locations in the genome of a plant or plant cell are provided. In specific embodiments, the plant or plant cell comprises at least two transfer cassettes. The first transfer cassette comprises a first nucleotide sequence of interest flanked by a first and a second recombination site, wherein the first and the second recombination sites are non-identical. The second transfer cassette comprises a second nucleotide sequence of interest flanked by the second recombination site and a third recombination site, wherein the third recombination site is non-identical to the first and said second recombination site. The second recombination site is shared between the first and the second transfer cassette, such that the genome of the plant cell comprises in the following order the first recombination site, the first nucleotide sequence of interest, the second recombination site, the second nucleotide sequence of interest, and the third recombination site.
摘要:
Methods and compositions for the stacking of multiple nucleotide sequences at precise locations in the genome of a plant or plant cell are provided. Specifically, transfer cassettes comprising nucleotide sequences of interest flanked by non-identical recombination sites are introduced into a plant comprising a target site. The target site contains at least a set of non-identical recombination sites corresponding to those on the transfer cassette. Exchange of the nucleotide sequences flanked by the recombination sites is effected by a recombinase. The transfer cassettes and target sites are designed so as to allow for the stacking or ordering of nucleotide sequences at precise locations in the plant genome.

摘要:
Methods and compositions for altering a nucleotide sequence of interest in a plant is provided. The method involves introducing a chimeric oligonucleotide into a plant cell, wherein the oligonucleotide comprises at least two intervening blocks of RNA residues with intervening DNA residues. The RNA blocks are homologous to a plant nucleotide sequence. The chimeric oligonucleotide is capable of folding to form a duplex oligonucleotide. The chimeric oligonucleotide is maintained within the nucleus of the plant whereby the alteration is introduced into the target sequences of the plant genome.

The invention relates to the genetic manipulation of plants, particularly to the expression of galactomannan biosynthetic genes in transformed plants. Nucleotide sequences for the GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase genes and methods for their use are provided. The sequences find use in the production of gum in plants. A nucleic acid encoding a GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase from maize is taught, as are plants and plant cells transformed with it.
