Selectable marker helps
1. | To identify transformants |
2. | To identify recombinants |
3. | To identify non- recombinants |
4. | To eliminate transformants |
A selectable marker is used to:
1. | help in eliminating the non-transformants so that the transformants can be regenerated. |
2. | identify the gene for the desired trait in an alien organism. |
3. | select a suitable vector for transformation in a specific crop. |
