Genetic Transformation of Recalcitrant Cassava by Embryo Selection and Increased Hormone Levels

Genetic Transformation of Recalcitrant Cassava by Embryo Selection and Increased Hormone Levels

Genetic engineering is considered to be an important tool for the improvement of cassava. Cassava is a highly heterozygous crop species for which conventional breeding is a lengthy and tedious process. Robust transformation is based on Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of friable embryogenic cal...
