Characterization of the bioluminescent gene pathway engineered into the Firefly© Petunia
By Cat Williams Faculty Mentor: Dr. April Wynn Abstract Petunias do not naturally bioluminesce; however, the transgenic Firefly Petunia, created by Light Bio, contains genes from the bioluminescent mushroom, Neonothopanus nambi, inserted into its genome. In an effort to confirm the insertion and location of the inserted genes, primers were designed, each gene was amplified…
