Our lab has developed genetic transformation pipelines for the following species:

• Petunia (Mitchell)

• Tobacco (all genotypes)

• Tomato (most genotypes)

• Potato (Solalum tuberosome L. cv. ‘Russet Burbank")

• Chili Pepper (Red Rocket)

• Sweet Pepper ( California Wonder and other commercial varieties) 

• Brasscia Family ( B. rapa cv. Bok Choy, cv. pekinensis, B.napus, Brassica oleracea var. italica) 

• Snapdragon (JI7, SIPPE50, and some potted commercial  varieties)

• Lettuce (all genotypes)

• Grape (V. vinifera cv. ‘Thompson Seedless’)

• Soybean (Willams82)

Other services: 

• protocol development for micropropagation

• protocol development for genetic transformation

​

For genetic transformation (overexpression and silencing) and gene editing: T1 segregated seeds from T0 plants will be recommended for research purposes. Only our own plasmid will be used for some species such as pepper and snapdragon; for other plant species, our plasmid will be also highly recommended.
