Plant Genetic Engineering Services

Plant Genetic Engineering Services.

CD BioSciences is dedicated to providing customizable one-stop services of plant genetic engineering, including gene cloning, vector construction, genetic transformation as well as phenotype and gene function analysis. Our services are fundamental in basic research and are novel technologies for crop improvement, solving problems that traditional breeding cannot break through and providing new ideas for plant trait improvement.

Our plant genetic engineering services utilize advanced biotechnological methods to precisely edit crop genomes, enabling in-depth understanding and regulation of crop genetic characteristics. By introducing exogenous genes or regulating the expression of target genes, we can help researchers investigate gene functions and achieve the goals of increasing crop yield, improving resistance, and improving quality.

Plant Gene Editing Services

Our services include plant gene knockout or knock-in, single base editing, and multiple gene editing to explore gene function and improve various traits such as crop yield or pest resistance. Our services are based on a variety of plant genome editing technologies, such as

  • Zinc Finger Nucleases
  • Transcription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases (TALEN)
  • CRISPR-Cas systems

Plant Gene Overexpression Service

We provide crop gene overexpression technologies to obtain higher levels of target mRNA transcription and protein expression in plant cells, including plant gene overexpression vector construction and gene transformation services.

Plant Gene Silencing Service

We offer RNA interference (RNAi) services to suppress endogenous gene expression in plants. Our advanced VIGS technology suppresses endogenous gene expression by virally infecting plants and prevents plant genetic transformation.

Plant Genetic Transformation Service

We provide professional plant genetic transformation services. Our one-stop service includes target gene fragments extraction, construct vectors, vector transformation, integration of target genes into the plant's nuclear genome, and transgenic plant validation. The types of plants we can genetically transform include

  • Model plants

Such as tobacco, Arabidopsis thaliana.

  • Cash crops

Such as cotton, soybeans, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, canola, kale, apples, grapes, watermelons, melons, citrus, alfalfa, cabbage, lettuce, etc.

  • Food crops

Such as rice, wheat, maize, potato, etc.

Plant Genetic Variation Assay Service

Plants have a wide range of genetic variation, which is a critical factor for plants to adapt to different environments. We offer comprehensive plant genetic variation detection services based on whole-genome resequencing technology, accurately detecting and analyzing both natural and epigenetic variation in plants.

Traditional Breeding vs Genetic Engineering Breeding

Traditional breeding Genetic engineering breeding
  • Self- and inbreeding have disaffinity.
  • It is difficult to guarantee that specific genes will be combined by crosses.
  • Burdensome genes are often passed on to the next generation along with good genes.
  • Takes longer to get the desired result.
  • One or several genes of interest can be transferred directly into close or distantly related organisms.
  • Reduces the time needed for crop improvement.
  • Improvements can be made by knocking out or silencing specific genes.

CD BioSciences has a one-stop service platform for plant gene or protein function research. Clients can obtain customized solutions for plant genetic engineering, and can also undertake subsequent analysis and research on plants through our analysis platform. If you are interested in our services, please contact us for more details.
