Fagopyrum tataricum (Tartary Buckwheat) Transformation

Fagopyrum tataricum is a medicinal and food plant with functional special effects of lowering blood sugar, blood pressure and lipids due to the large amount of flavonoids in various organs such as its seeds, roots, stems, leaves and flowers. With the continuous discovery of its nutritional and medicinal values, Fagopyrum tataricum has been increasingly favored by people. Fagopyrum tataricum has not yet achieved a breakthrough in breeding because the self-pollination of Fagopyrum tataricum makes it difficult for artificial hybridization to be successful in production breeding.

Lifeasible focuses on technology development and experimental services in molecular biology and plant genetic engineering, providing technical support to research institutions and seed companies at all levels, including gene cloning, gene editing, vector construction, plant transgenesis, and so on. We take the efficient and abundant plant transgenic transformation system as our characteristic advantage, i.e., we can provide large-scale and standardized transgenic technology service by using plant varieties of mature systems, and we can also undertake the research and development of transgenic technology systems for designated varieties.

What do we offer?

We have developed a mature genetic transformation system for Fagopyrum tataricum and provide large-scale, standardized genetic transformation technology services, with project trials available throughout the year. We can efficiently obtain transgenic Fagopyrum tataricum strains quickly and provide reports on the progress of each stage of the genetic transformation project. We utilize Agrobacterium transformation methods to transform Fagopyrum tataricum genetically, and the following services are available.

• Transformation vector construction.
• Fagopyrum tataricum sterile seedling cultivation.
• Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of Fagopyrum tataricum, screening.
• Positive healing induction, adventitious shoot differentiation.
• Rooting and strengthening of regenerated green seedlings.
• PCR detection of exogenous genes in T0 generation transgenic seedlings.

We have established a rapid and effective genetic transformation system for Fagopyrum tataricum, which simplifies the culture process and enables us to obtain buckwheat regeneration plants in a short time. The phenotypic consistency of our cultured histocultured plants was high, and they stably maintained the excellent characteristics of the parent.

Our research objectives

• Improvement of nutritional value. Fagopyrum tataricum is highly nutritious and contains some functional compounds. We genetically transform Fagopyrum tataricum to achieve increased yield or accumulation of some bioactive compounds, thus making Fagopyrum tataricum a more nutritious crop.
• Improved agronomic traits. We do this by introducing or enhancing desirable agronomic traits in Fagopyrum tataricum. For breeding varieties with increased yield, improved tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses, and enhanced tolerance to different environmental conditions.
• Pest and disease resistance. We introduced pest and disease-resistance genes through genetic transformation to make Fagopyrum tataricum resistant to pests and diseases. This helps reduce Fagopyrum tataricum's dependence on chemical pesticides and promotes green and sustainable production.

Results of the experiments we delivered

• Each standard transformation provides 5-10 independent transformed strains.
• Experimental data and pictures.
• Complete lab report for the project.

Advantages of our services

• Our technical service team has many years of experimental experience transforming plant genes from different sources.
• Our professional technical team will customize a more suitable genetic transformation program for you to obtain positively transformed seeds that can satisfy downstream experiments.
• We provide an effective and stable plant growing system to ensure high positive seed yield.
