Application

Application Comment Organism
agriculture enzyme GGPS expression in crop plants may yield desirable agronomic traits, including enhanced growth of shoots and roots, early flowering, greater numbers of seed pods and/or higher seed yield with potential applications for fast production of plant biomass that provides commercially valuable biomaterials or bioenergy Helianthus annuus

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
gene GGPS, recombinant expression of chloroplast-targeted GFP-tagged or untagged GGPS isolated from Helianthus annuus under control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter in Nicotiana tabacum cv. xanthi, Arabidopsis thaliana, and Taraxacum brevicorniculatum chloroplasts using Agrobacterium tumefaciens transfection method Helianthus annuus

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information transgenic tobacco plants expressing heterologous GGPS from Helianthus annuus show remarkably enhanced growth (an increase in shoot and root biomass and height), early flowering, increased number of seed pods and greater seed yield compared with control or wild-type plants. HaGGPS expression in transgenic tobacco enhances root growth. The gibberellin levels in HaGGPS-transgenic plants are higher than those in control plants, indicating that the observed phenotype may result from increased gibberellin content. No phenotypic defects in the transgenic plants. Enhanced growth in HaGGPS-transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana and Taraxacum brevicorniculatum plants Helianthus annuus
