Patent

CA 2288077

The invention is concerned with the use of cyanamide hydratase as a selection marker in plant transformation. Cyanamide acts as a herbicide and plants transformed with the gene coding for cyanamide hydratase are able to convert the cyanamide into urea which enables the selection of transformed plants by survival under cyanamide pressure.

L'invention concerne l'utilisation d'une cyanamide hydratase en tant que marqueur de sélection dans la transformation de plantes. Ce cyanamide agit en tant qu'herbicide et les plantes transformées à l'aide du gène codant pour la cyanamide hydratase sont capables de convertir le cyanamide en urée, ce qui permet de sélectionner des plantes transformées par le fait qu'elles survivent malgré la présence de cyanamide.
