A NOVEL DOMINANT SELECTION SYSTEM FOR PLANT TRANSGENICS BASED ON PHOSPHITE METABOLISM CATALYZED BY BACTERIAL ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE

A novel dominant selection system for plant transgenics based on phosphite metabolism catalyzed by bacterial alkaline phosphatase

Selective markers are generally indispensable in plant genetic 15-eg1053cl transformation, of which the frequently used are of antibiotic or herbicide resistance.However, the increasing concerns on transgenic biosafety have encouraged many new and safe selective markers emerging, with an eminent representative as phosphite (Phi) in combination to i

Two-dipole model of the asymmetric Sun

The large-scale photospheric magnetic field is commonly thought to be mainly dipolar during sunspot minima, when magnetic fields of opposite polarity cover the solar poles.However, recent studies show that hfcs1lp the octupole harmonics contribute comparably to the spatial power of the photospheric field at these times.Also, the even harmonics are
