Depositor Comments

Jason Rudd, (Rothamsted research UK) provided Agrobacterium tumfaciens vector pCAMB-BAR (pCAMBIA-0380 backbone with bar gene under Neurospora crassa trpC promoter) For more information see: Kramer et al.. Fungal Genetics and Biology, 46, 667-681. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19520179.

Bar gene from pCAMB-BAR was recombined into pC-HYG-YR (Addgene plasmid# 61765) through yeast recombineering to replace hygromycin gene and create pC-BAR-YR.

Restriction sites EcoRI and HindIII can be used to linearise the vector inside left (LB) and right (RB) borders of the TDNA. Note that the trpC promoter and bar sequences are present within the EcoRI and HindII cloning sites.
