“…Although class I enzymes have been used to generate glyphosate-resistant crops, virtually all commercial crops with this trait, such as soybeans, corn, cotton, and canola, express the Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain CP4 class II protein (Dill, 2005). In this study, sequence analysis and structure modeling demonstrated that AroA Pantoea sp most closely resembles a class I EPSPS and possesses high glyphosate tolerance.…”

ABSTRACT. The shikimate pathway enzyme 5-enopyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) is the target of the broad spectrum herbicide glyphosate. A novel aroA gene encoding an EPSPS from Pantoea sp was identified and subcloned into the pET-28a vector to construct the recombinant pET-AroA Pantoea sp plasmid. Amino acid sequence analysis indicated that AroA Pantoea sp is a class I AroA enzyme. When expressed in Escherichia coli, it conveyed high tolerance to glyphosate. AroA Pantoea sp may be used to generate transgenic glyphosate-tolerant plants.

“…The students previously heard very little about the mechanisms of biotechnology (Gerald& Dill, 2005), and about important drugs manufactured by genetic engineering methods (Fusek, Kas & Ruml, 2008). They knew nothing about the many enzymes we consume every day in our baked products, yoghurts, cheese, soft drinks and spirits that have been produced by genetically engineered microorganisms and that must be included in the Community Register of GM food and feed.…”

Lectures on ecology and environmental protection – previous knowledge and present attitudes of first year university students

The presented article offers an insight into the environmental literacy and attitudes of young technically oriented Czech university students at a faculty of pharmacy, in preparation for non-teaching and non-ecological professional careers. At this faculty, no philosophical or emotion-based approaches to nature and wildlife are acceptable as a teaching basis, even in the case of ecology.As an evaluation of the course 'Ecology for Pharmacists' taught in the first year, over 120 students completed -after a common credit test -an optional questionnaire. The goal was first to assess the environmental knowledge acquired by students at secondary education level and then to see their willingness to learn more about ecology and/or contemporary environmental problems.

“…The acceptance and wide spread use of RoundUp Ready technology, in which a crop species is transformed with a gene conferring RoundUp tolerance, has led to skyrocketing use of glyphosate, the active ingredient in the herbicide RoundUp (Dill, 2005). Unfortunately, morning glory species are also notoriously difficult to control with this herbicide, and are becoming more prominent in glyphosate resistant crops (Culpepper, 2006).…”

Morning glory as a powerful model in ecological genomics: tracing adaptation through both natural and artificial selection

et al. 2011

Many diverse questions in ecology and evolution have been addressed using species belonging to the genus Ipomoea, commonly referred to as the morning glory genus. Ipomoea exhibits a wide range of diversity in floral color, growth form, mating system and tolerance to environmental factors, both within and among species, and as such has been a focal group of many investigations in the last 80 years. In this review, we highlight recent work to which Ipomoea species have contributed-from studies of the mating system, molecular evolution, plant-herbivore and plant-parasite interactions to their impact on and importance to agriculture. Genomic resources for this group are currently under development, and given the breadth of studies and history of this group, combined with an expanding genetics toolkit, we argue that Ipomoea should provide the next model organism for ecological genomics.
