| Abstract | An accurate determination of gene copy number is critical to the success of a molecular breeding program involving both transgenic and non-transgenic plants. In this paper, we have described the application of a non-PCR-based technology, Invader$^{®*}$, for determination of gene copy number and zygosity in plants. A biplex assay format detected both a target gene and an endogenous reference gene simultaneously from the genomic DNA. The ratio between the signals of the two genes in relation to known copy number standards of the same target gene allowed copy number determination. The linear range of the Invader assay was 1–4 copies per genome, but it can be accurate over a larger copy number range depending on the assay conditions. This technique was utilized for screening plants carrying low transgene copy numbers from a large number of events generated by plant transformation, and shown to produce results comparable to that of Southern blots. We have also utilized this technique to screen thousands of field-grown plants for zygosity determinations and obtained data that was over 98% accurate, thus proving that this assay can be used to improve the efficiency of a breeding program. Overall, the Invader assays proved to be reproducible, specific, applicable to any gene sequence and amenable to high-throughput screening. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
