title: Transient expression of goat growth hormone gene in poplar (Populus alba L.) protoplasts: a quick method for detection of foreign gene expression in mRNA level.
abstract: We developed a sensitive, accurate, and fast method to detect foreign gene expression using reverse transcriptase-mediated polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in poplar tree (Populus alba L.) protoplasts. Template total RNA was purified by removing the transfected foreign gene vector completely with DNase I treatment before the RT reaction. Expression of cDNA that encodes goat growth hormone was confirmed at the mRNA level 24 h after electroporation mediated DNA transfer.
