Optimisation of transfor mation method of E ragrostis tef and Eragrostis curvula orphan crops / Ewa Bachul
Titre : Optimisation of transfor mation method of E ragrostis tef and Eragrostis curvula orphan crops Type de document : TFE / Mémoire Auteurs : Ewa Bachul, Auteur ; Jonathan Scauflaire, Directeur de la recherche Editeur : Montignies-sur-Sambre : Helha. Agronomie Année de publication : 2022 Note générale : Le fichier numérique de ce document est disponible uniquement pour les membres de la Haute Ecole Louvain-en-Hainaut ainsi que ses étudiants. Veuillez-vous connecter pour accéder à votre compte lecteur Langues : Français (fre) Index. décimale : TFE AIBT TFE Agro-industries et biotechnologies Résumé : This work reports on experiments conducted at the University of Cape Town in South Africa with the aim of optimizing the genetic transformation of Eragrostis tef and Eragrostis curvula, two orphan plants from Africa. The overall aim was to insert foreign DNA into these plants while being able to verify the effectiveness of the transformation. The work was divided into several steps and involved the most common molecular biology techniques such as PCR, DNA extraction, etc. The experiments began with the preparation of the cloning vector. mCherry, a chromophore allowing post-experimental verification, was inserted into pB2WG7, a plasmid.
In the second step, it is necessary to verify that the insertion has been done correctly before the cloning vector can be placed in culture with Escherichia coli. After that, the bacteria themselves will be placed in Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The latter will infect the plants so that they can integrate this new genetic material into their genome. The last step, verification, is possible thanks to mCherry. The aim of spectrophotometry is to see if it is visible at the wavelength to which it is supposed to fluorescence and conclude that the experiments are working correctly. The results can be considered promising and worthwhile, but unfortunately, science is an unpredictable field and has not always allowed the experiments to achieve in their entirety.Note de contenu : 5
