Formal lab report: Abstarct: The Purpose of this experiment was to perform Agrobacterium-mediated transformation in Wild type Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia by using somatic plant transformation method. The whole process lasted for over a period of 11 weeks and we were successful in getting transformed plants. Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain containing pMP90 (Ti-helper) plasmid and pCAMBIA1391 (T-DNA) plasmid was used for this plant transformation. pCAMBIA1391 plasmid was constructed by cloning Brassica

and sister chromatids? Homologous chromosomes have the same arrangement of genes but are not connected to each other. Sister chromatids are identical: the result of DNA replication. The two connected chromatids are considered to be one chromosome. 3) What are tumor suppressor genes (11.18-11.19) and what is their role in the cell cycle? Tumor suppressor genes are genes that regulate the growth of cells. When functioning properly‚ these genes can stop the growth of tumors. They can communicate to
