Abstract
In the past 7-8 years considerable effort has been expended to produce transgenic plants that resist virus infection, insects, herbicides and disease development. The crop improvement and the desired phenotype is conferred by transformation, usually with a single foreign gene. Selection of transformants demands the use of selectable markers, which usually encode enzymes which inactivate either a herbicide or an antibiotic. Also we use certain foreign genes known as reporter genes (for review see [7]).
