Cucumis melo, also known as melon, is an annual herb in the Cucurbitaceae family. Melon originated in Africa and has been cultivated for at least 2000 years. Melons can be divided into diploids and polyploids, and the current cultivars are mainly diploid melons. Melon fruits are very sweet and rich in sugars, starch, small amounts of protein, minerals, and vitamins. The whole melon herb can be used as medicine with anti-inflammatory, dehumidifying, and jaundice reducing properties. Currently, melon is one of the most important food crops, and genetically modified biotechnology is being used to improve its yield, fruit storability, and various resistance.
Lifeasible has a professional technical teamthatengaged in plant genetic transformation for many years, committing to providing you with professional melon genetic transformation services. Our plant genetic transformation platform has an efficient experimental process, professional technical service support, and mainstream molecular biology experimental equipment. We use Agrobacterium-mediated transformation to target melon shape modification. Firstly, our experts take melon cotyledons as transgenic recipient material and infest the recipient material with Agrobacterium carrying the target gene vector. Subsequently, after resistance screening, we can obtain independent resistant healing tissues. Finally, the healing tissues will differentiate and regenerate into the target transgenic strain. Our various melon genetic modification services are listed below.
Customers can provide constructed melon transformation vectors directly, and 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 entire experimental process is standardized and scalable, allowing for a wide range of customized melon genetic transformation services. Our staff will keep our clients informed at key points in the process and report to you regularly on the current phase of data. All experimental components will follow strict QC standards and be operated by experienced plant geneticists.
Lifeasible's experts have comprehensive knowledge and years of experience in solving technical problems and challenges in cucumis melo transformation. We can provide customized solutions to help you study a wide range of melon varieties. Our services guarantee the success of your project.
