Site specific transgene integration: Corteva AgriscienceRecent Research Landscape

The precise targeting of transgenes into specific genomic sites and promoters is being engineered. This controls gene expression predictability and avoids random insertional mutagenesis in plant breeding.

What technical problems is Corteva Agriscience addressing in Site specific transgene integration?

Crop pathogen susceptibility

(18)evidences

The cluster addresses the vulnerability of crops to specific fungal pathogens and the undesirable retention of foreign selection markers in modified genomes. Solving these issues improves crop yield stability and regulatory compliance for transgenic plants.

Unpredictable transgene expression levels

(16)evidences

The keywords focus on regulatory sequences and 3'UTRs to modulate and regulate expression. Solving the lack of control over protein output prevents gene silencing and ensures consistent trait performance.
