| Abstract | In transgenic plants, the number of transgene copies can greatly influence the level of expression and genetic stability of the target gene. Transgene copy numbers are estimated by Southern blot analysis, which is laborious and time-consuming, requires relatively large amounts of plant materials, and may involve hazardous radioisotopes. Here we report the development of a sensitive, convenient real-time PCR technique for estimating the number of transgene copies in transgenic rapeseed. This system uses TaqMan quantitative real-time PCR and comparison with a novel, confirmed single-copy endogenous reference gene, high-mobile-group protein I/Y (HMG I/Y), to determine the numbers of copies of exogenous β-glucuronidase (GUS) and neomycin phosphotransferase II (nptII) genes. TheGUS andnptII copy numbers in primary transformants (T$_{0}$) were calculated by comparing threshold cycle (C $_{T}$) values of theGUS andnptII genes with those of the internal standard,HMG I/Y. This method is more convenient and accurate than Southern blotting because the number of copies of the exogenous gene could be directly deduced by comparing itsC $_{T}$ value to that of the single-copy endogenous gene in each sample. Unlike other similar procedures of real-time PCR assay, this method does not require identical amplification efficiencies between the PCR systems for target gene and endogenous reference gene, which can avoid the bias that may result from slight variations in amplification efficiencies between PCR systems of the target and endogenous reference genes. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
