Nicotiana Benthamiana Model Plant. Nicotiana benthamiana a solanaceous species native to Australia is one of the most commonly used model plant organisms. Benthamiana is susceptible to a wide variety of other plant-pathogenic. Targeted mutagenesis in the model plant Nicotiana benthamiana using Cas9 RNA-guided endonuclease To the Editor. Here we demonstrate the use of various CRISPR-associated Cas proteins for gene.
Nicotiana benthamiana has become one of the most com-monly used model plant species for research on molecular plant-microbe interactions as well as other areas of plant science Goodin et al. Benthamiana as a model for plantpathogen interactions. Benthamianas widespread use as a model plant has remained limited due to its allotetraploid nature and the still incomplete sequence of its 31 Gb genome Bally et al 2018. Here we demonstrate the use of various CRISPR-associated Cas proteins for gene. Nicotiana benthamiana is a widely used model plant species for the study of fundamental questions in molecular plant-microbe interactions and other areas of plant biology. Sustainable intensification of crop production.
Later this feature was exploited with the development of viral vectors that can express foreign genes and the establishment.
It is used extensively as a model organism for many types of research including plantpathogen interactions RNA interference and functional genomics. Targeted mutagenesis in the model plant Nicotiana benthamiana using Cas9 RNA-guided endonuclease. Nicotiana benthamiana is a commonly used model plant for studying plantpathogen interactions because it is host to numerous plant pathogens and because many research tools are available for this species. Functional gene studies in this species mostly rely on RNAi based methodologies virus-induced gene silencing VIGS antisense RNA short hairpin RNA shRNA. Benthamiana is a widely used model for plant-microbe biology and other research applications. Benthamiana can be transformed easily it is also.
