Satellite Symposium 5: Molecular Breeding

Description

The availability of a suite of promoters with a range of spatial, temporal and inducible expression patterns is of significant importance to enable targeted expression of genes of interest for molecular breeding of forage species. A range of resources and tools have been developed for promoter isolation and characterisation in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) including genomic lambda and BAC libraries and a 15 K unigene microarray.
