Genetic Engineering of Genes Controlling Seed Quality

  • Chapter
Applications of Genetic Engineering to Crop Improvement

Part of the book series: Advances in Agricultural Biotechnology ((AABI,volume 10))

Abstract

The successful genetic engineering of any plant trait has two obvious prerequisites. First, the biochemical bases of the trait must be identified followed by identification of the gene products involved, viz proteins having catalytic, transport, regulatory or structural functions and possibly unique RNA species. Secondly, the important genes to be modified or transferred must be isolated.
