Transgenic Soybeans

All of the soybean plants below were obtained using
D20 transformation




Pod formation with clone 2CM-1
(contains genes for CBF1 and hygromycin resistance)
 


Pod formation with clone 18-E42xA1
(contains the hygromycin resistance gene)



Large leaves in clone 12-101
(contains genes for bovine rotavirus VP6, zein, and hygromycin resistance)




Early determinate growth of clone PR1a-F
(contains genes for PR1a and hygromycin resistance)
 




Large plant of clone PR1a-E
(contains genes for PR1a and hygromycin resistance)
 


Pseudopods on clone PR1a-E
(contains genes for PR1a and hygromycin resistance)


Pod formation on clone PR1a-B
(contains genes for PR1a and hygromycin resistance)



Pods and short internode length in clone PR1a-B
(contains genes for PR1a and hygromycin resistance)
 


Low seed set on clone Ox9a
(contains gene for oxalate oxidase and hygromycin resistance)



Contorted stem base on clone 2CM1
(contains genes for CBF1 and hygromycin resistance)
This is typical of our primary transgenics
