Sesamum indicum, also known as sesame, belongs to the family Carotaceae and is widely cultivated in many regions of the world. Sesame is an important oilseed crop with high application value. Its seeds contain up to 55% oil. Sesame seeds are rich in nutrients and contain high levels of glycerides, proteins, sugars, and vitamins. Linoleic acid in sesame seeds has the effect of softening blood vessels and regulating cholesterol. Sesame is a plant that is susceptible to biotic and abiotic adversities that affect the yield potential of the crop and improving the crop through modern plant breeding is one of the most important means of overcoming obstacles to sesame yield enhancement. The genetic transformation of sesame will mainly focus on improving disease resistance, insect resistance, herbicide resistance, salt tolerance, and cold tolerance.
Lifeasible has a professional and technical team with many years of experience in plant genetic transformation and is committed to providing the most optimized, stable, and shortest cycle time transgenic sesame services. Our versatile sesame genetic transformation platform is based on the Agrobacterium-mediated method. It offers a wide range of Agrobacterium strains (LBA4404, GV3101, EHA105, AGL1, C58, GV2260) and custom-labeled vectors (kanamycin, thaumatin, glufosinate, G418) for you to choose from. This provides customers with more selectivity and can also fully meet various needs. We mainly take care of the whole experimental process, from vector construction to obtaining transgenic plants. You only need to submit samples as required and then wait patiently for the results. In addition, you can choose the vector construction service you need from the links below.
Customers can provide constructed sesame transformation vectors directly, Lifeasible also offers vector construction services.
| Concentration | Volume | Other requirements |
| 80-100 ng/μL | ≥10 μL | no degradation & no contamination |
| Bacterial broth | Bacterial plate |
| Bacterial broth up to 1-year-old, preserved in glycerol | Bacterial plate activated within one week |
*For special varieties and customized services, the experiment time and the number of seeds needed may be increased. For this, please contact our staff for more information.
*Plasmids, E. coli, and Agrobacterium require cryopreservation and mailing under dry ice to avoid degradation, inactivation, and impact on experimental results.
*The strains, vectors, and receptor materials used in the experiment can be saved for free for half a year for customers, and you can pick them up at any time if you need them.
Our sesame gene transformation service is staffed by experienced experts throughout the entire process in order to provide practical experimental advice, project consultation, and progress reports during experiments. We will keep you informed when the experiment reaches a critical point in case you miss it. The goal of our one-stop service is to ease your research burden and reduce the waste of valuable research time. We do as much as possible; you only need to submit samples as requested and wait patiently for the results.
Lifeasible's experts have comprehensive knowledge and years of experience solving technical problems and challenges in sesamum indicum transformation. We can provide customized solutions to help you study a wide range of sesame varieties. Our services guarantee the success of your project. For more information or any inquiry needs, please feel free to contact us.
