Medium constitutive expression of EBF synthase from Artemisia annua

For the production of the alarmhormone,(E)-β-farnesene, a sesquiterpene synthase gene (GenBank Accession No. AJ271793) was put behind a medium (constitutive) promoter and medium RBS (BBa_K608006).

System testing

Our pilot experiment with aphid indicated that our brick performed the desired function, for the video of aphids experiment, please go to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-pMp8-XdUo Aphid Repellence video].
In this video you will find our first behavioural experiment with aphids. An EBF-producing bacterium plate (E. coli BL21(DE3) on LB with 5mM Mg2+ and Chloramphenicol is placed on the left, a control plate on the right, aphids are placed on the leaf in the middle. The first results indicate a positive trend, as we can see them moving from left to right. (You may have to watch the video in full screen to clearly see the aphids.) For more information on the experimental setup and a discussion of the results go to [http://2013.igem.org/Team:KU_Leuven/Project/Glucosemodel/EBF#aphid%20experiments here].
