bar (bialaphos resistance)
The bialaphos resistance (bar) gene confers resistance to bialaphos and phosphinothricin.
Usage and Biology
The common fungus transformation system of entomopathogen Metarhizium anisopliae was based on resistance to the herbicide glufosinate ammonium (phosphinothricin), conferred by the bar gene.
Team NYMU 2016 characterized the bar marker gene, a twin of this part, using the bar expression cassette on vector pBARGPE1 with our chassis organism M.anisopliae.
The transformants carrying the bar gene can grow on the PDA containing glufosinate ammonium.
We did the glufosinate ammonium inhibition test using three different concentrations (0, 160, 1000 ug/mL) with transformants with gene bar and wildtype as a control, the result is showed below.
The initial radius were all 4mm. The mycelium length was measured on day 4, 5 and 6 after starting M.anisopliae conidia cultivation on solid media.
