Maize Transformation Service

Plant transformation platform of Creative Biogene has the capacity to conduct transformations for various inbred and hybrid maize lines, including but not limited to B104, B114, LH244, A188, A634, H99, W117, Y423, PHR03, Mo17 and Hi-II. Our maize transformation pipeline is one of the most efficient platform around the world, and follow fully-matured transformation protocol to offer high throughput maize transformation for both academic research and commercial applications. Moreover, we have molecular and bioinformatics expertise within the group, to also undertake construct design, cloning and downstream analysis of the transgenic plants as required.

Maize is an important food and feed crop around the world. Since the market launch of the first transgenic Bt maize products in the mid-1990s, maize has become one of the most important target crops for biotechnological innovation. Currently, there are more biotech traits available on the market in maize than in any other crop. The generation of transgenic plants is the crucial step in the development of new biotech trait products. For commercial applications, it is highly desirable to have a high throughput transformation system producing large number of high quality events in an elite genetic background. Also, with the rapid development of genome editing technology in plant, it is conceivable that the application of maize transformation in basic research for understanding the maize genome and in commercial trait development will progress rapidly in the coming years.
