Red fluorescent protein (DsRed2), an ideal reporter for cotton genetic transformation and molecular breeding

Genes encoding reporter proteins are used as visual marker-assisted tools in genetic transformation as well as plant breeding. In this study, the red fluorescent protein identified in Discosoma sp. coral (DsRed2) was successfully used as a visual marker for cotton genetic engineering. DsRed2 was suc...
