Genetic stability developed for β-carotene synthesis in BR29 rice line using dihaploid homozygosity.
Obtaining transgenic crop lines with stable levels of carotenoids is highly desirable. We addressed this issue by employing the anther culture technique to develop dihaploid lines containing genes involved in β-carotene metabolism. First, we used Agrobacterium- mediated transformation to develop pri...
