 FROM FARMING FOR FOOD TO PHARMING FOR PHARMACEUTICALS AND OTHER HIGH VALUE PROTEINS IN CRUCIFERS
This technology was developed in canola (Brassica napus) for several reasons: it is amenable to genetic transformation, has a relatively high oil (body) content and is a widely grown crop plant.
Oil bodies, and proteins associated with them, can be easily separated from the majority of other seed cell components using floatation separation/centrifugation, facilitating the purification of the desired protein.
We are using this technology for several applications.

 A Generalization of Theory on the Evolution of Modifier Genes. Chapter 1, excerpt.
Transformation in these cases takes the form of migration or dispersal in the case of organismal location, or shifts in habitats, hosts or diet from parents to offspring in the case of micro-habitat.
In this thesis, transformation will be excluded for the most part from acting on the transformation types themselves, so that the means by which selection can come to be induced on transformation types can be seen clearly.
Population genetics models are often classified as sexual vs. asexual, or haploid vs. diploid, but these classifications overlap in terms of topology of descent.

Genetics and Molecular Biology - Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of sorghum: factors that affect transformation efficiency
Although promising, the overall transformation efficiency of the protocol is still low and further optimization will require particular attention to be given to the number of Agrobacterium in the inoculum and the selection of sorghum genotypes and explants less sensitive to Agrobacterium infection.
Although one advantage of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is the tendency to insert a low copy number of transgenes, all three events produced plants with more than one copy of the inserted gene (Figure 3).

 Transformation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Transformation (genetics), the genetic alteration of a cell resulting from the introduction of foreign DNA

 G. Pontecorvo, 1907-1999
A third feature that Pontecorvo could not have foreseen is the amenability of this fungus to molecular analysis, which owes much to its ease of transformation and the high frequency of homologous integration of transforming DNA, the latter possibly relating to the isogenicity of DNA from closely related strains.
Pontecorvo expected to move on to an animal breeding post in Peru, but never made it, having become deeply influenced by H.J Muller, who was then working in the Institute of Animal Genetics in Edinburgh, en route from the USSR to the USA.
E. Kafer and Pontecorvo also made extensive use of parasexual genetics in A.

 Inclusionality: An Immersive Philosophy of Environmental Relationships
our experience, if we reflect on it, tells us that our actions are 'not in their own right' but instead must be seen in the deeper terms of 'interventions' into the continuing space-time transformation known as 'life'.
In the finite space of the global commons, as on the pool table, what 'we do' is reflected back on us in terms of the transformation of our ongoing opportunity-to-do, thus the creation and propagation of new species simultaneously transforms the ongoing geometry of opportunity for us and all species (i.e.
In discretising the world in terms of fixed identity 'things', the relational transformation of space is no longer a viewing option and the observer is forced to 'invent time' to deal with the 'motion of things' in place of 'transform-motion'.
