SERINE RECOMBINASES MEDIATING STABLE INTEGRATION INTO PLANT GENOMES

摘要

Described is a serine recombinase that integrates large sections of foreign DNA into plant chromosomes through non-homologous recombination through attP or attB sites on the foreign DNA but without the engineering of corresponding attB or attP site on the plant chromosome. The serine recombinase-based method has several advantages over other systems, such as Agrobacterium. Also described are related methods, composition, and plants containing exogenous DNA.
