Creative Biogene has established a dedicated genetic transformation platform for Coix, which facilitates the precise incorporation of beneficial traits and enables efficient genome manipulation for research and breeding purposes. This service integrates proven methodologies such as Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, genome editing, and optimized plant regeneration systems to empower functional genomics studies, metabolic engineering, and precision breeding in Coix.
Coix lacryma-jobi L., commonly known as Job's tears, is a C4 plant in the Poaceae family, widely cultivated across Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Southwestern China. Recognized for both its nutritional and medicinal properties, Coix seeds are rich in bioactive compounds with anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and other health-promoting effects. Despite its potential as a functional food and herbal medicine, industrial development of Coix remains hindered by issues such as limited cultivar diversity, susceptibility to disease, low yield, and underutilization of non-seed tissues.
Creative Biogene provides end-to-end genetic transformation services for Coix, covering the full pipeline from vector design to stable transgenic line development and molecular validation.
| Project Type | Technical Details |
| Transformation System Development | Establishe high-efficiency transformation systems for various Coix cultivars and genotypes. Select optimal callus types and Agrobacterium strains (e.g., EHA105, AGL1), and optimize parameters such as bacterial density, co-cultivation conditions, and antibiotic selection. |
| Gene Overexpression / Gene Silencing | Introduce target genes or RNAi constructs via Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation to regulate gene expression in Coix. |
| Genome Editing | Design targeted editing constructs for site-specific knockouts/knock-ins in the Coix genome, supporting multiplex editing, directed mutagenesis, and trait stacking. |
| Stable Transgenic Plant Generation | Refine regeneration protocols using hormone combinations (e.g., KT, 6-BA, GA₃) to obtain healthy, stable transgenic Coix lines with full molecular and phenotypic validation. |
| Genotype-Specific Transformation Optimization | Develop customized transformation protocols for elite cultivars, including tailored callus induction strategies from explants such as adventitious roots, immature embryos, or stem segments. |
| Trait Improvement Project Support | Offer end-to-end support for breeding projects, from gene screening and vector construction to transformation and phenotypic evaluation, facilitating directed trait improvement and molecular breeding implementation. |
If you are interested in developing a genetic transformation system for Coix, constructing transgenic lines, or launching a customized genetic improvement project, please contact the Plant Molecular Platform at Creative Biogene. We are committed to providing reliable, efficient, and scientifically driven one-stop solutions to accelerate your research goals.
