Abstract:Peridinin-containing dinoflagellate algae have a chloroplast genome formed from plasmid-like minicircles. This fragmented genome has allowed us to develop a genetic modification methodology involving the use of biolistics to introduce artificial minicircles inAmphidinium carterae(Nimmo et al., 2019). The previously reported artificial minicircles were based on native minicircles containing either thepsbAoratpBgene. Each artificial minicircle allowed expression of a single selectable marker instead ofpsbAoratpB… Show more
