ABSTRACT. The aim of this study was to clone the isoflavone synthase (IFS) gene and establish the recombinant Minshan Trifolium pratense. The IFS gene was cloned from the callus of Minshan T. pratense using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The plant expression vector pRI101-AN-IFS was constructed and introduced into Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404, and then screened under cephalosporin. IFS expression was detected by reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction. The IFS gene was cloned successfully. Sequence analysis indicated that IFS gene had high homology with similar genes from other plants. The IFS-overexpressing callus was obtained by introducing the LBA4404-harboring IFS-pRI101-AN-IFS vector into T. pratense calluses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
