Here we describe a strategy for engineering transgenic plants with broad-spectrum resistance to bacterial and fungal phytopathogens. We expressed a synthetic gene encoding a N terminus-modified, ...

Two new studies on the environmental impact of transgenic American chestnut trees provide evidence that the trees have no harmful effects on germinating seeds, beneficial fungi, or larval frogs that ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. These genetically modified mice are valuable in studying human diseases due to their genetic similarity to humans, short lifespans ...

Transgenic zebrafish, or zebra danio (Danio rerio), have been bioengineered into a patented and trademarked brand of genetically modified (GM) fluorescent fish and marketed as “GloFish”. (Credit: ...

Fast growing transgenic fish can revolutionize commercial fish farming and relieve the pressure on overexploited fish stocks. But what happens in the natural environment if transgenic fish escape?

A transgenic line of monkeys carrying a gene encoding green fluorescent protein fully integrated into their DNA has been created for the first time. The research, published in the journal Nature, ...

The Case Transgenic and Targeting Facility is the sole transgenic core in the Cleveland area, serving investigators at CWRU, UHCMC, CCF, the VA Hospital, Metro-Health Hospital and Kent State ...

Four little marmosets glowing green could be heralds of a new species for modeling human diseases. Japanese scientists engineered the marmosets to make green fluorescent protein in all the cells of ...

The Institute for Behavioral Genetics has the world's most complete collection of mouse strains that have been engineered to express mutations in nicotinic cholinergic receptor (nAChR) subunit genes.
