Abstract
DE GUGLIELMO C, Zoraya M and FERNANDEZ DA SILVA, Rafael. Main promoters used in plant genetic transformation. Rev. colomb. biotecnol [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.2, pp.119-128. ISSN 0123-3475. https://doi.org/10.15446/rev.colomb.biote.v18n2.61529.
Full knowledge of promoters determines success in obtaining new plant cultivars through biotechnology techniques. This DNA sequence regulates the transcription of adjacent or nearby regions, which are mainly constitutive, tissue-specific or stage-specific, inducible and synthetic. This review summarizes the precise concepts, advantages and limitations of different types of promoters, including clear examples of them.
Keywords : Promoter; plant biotechnology; gene transcription.
