Unintended Effects of Genetic Manipulation
Manipulated Organism: Plants - Barley
barley_001:
Barley expressing a heat-stable enzyme showed highly variable expression
of the enzyme, an anomalous distribution of expression in the grain,
and dramatically reduced weight of individual grains.
barley_002:
Transgenic barley plants over-expressing a zinc transport protein
had smaller seeds and did not accumulate more zinc when grown in
zinc-deficient soil.
barley_003:
Difficulties were encountered when trying to express human collagen
in barley.
barley_004:
A group of transgenic barley plants expressing the bar selectable
marker gene did not produce viable offspring.
