Development and evaluation of a new binary vector for gene expression in higher plants / Nawawi Omar

The binary vector is an essential component in Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. It carries the DNA fragments to be delivered into the plant genome. Many binary vectors have been developed for different transformation experiments. Some of the binary vectors are commercially available. Most of t...
