Plant Size and Culture. Liriope muscari is the taller of the two plants, growing to 18 inches with a spread of up to 12 inches. Spicata is generally shorter, though in optimum growing conditions it may get as tall as 15 inches. The plant can spread up to 2 feet. Both plants spread and reproduce by rhizomes underground.
The unique colony holding the gene sequence of interest is identified by comparing the main plate with bacterial colonies, the nitro cellulose membrane and the X-ray film. The identified colony carrying gene sequence of interest can then be extracted from the plate and grown as a step to amplify the gene of interest. Using expression vectors in creating cDNA library makes the screening of the cDNA library much easier which is done with the help of specific antibodies.
The first step is the extraction of DNA from the organism known to have the trait of interest. The second step is gene cloning, which will isolate the gene of interest from the entire extracted DNA, followed by mass-production of the cloned gene in a host cell.he term genetic engineering is used to describe the process by which the genetic makeup of an organism can be altered using â recombinant DNA technology .â This involves the use of laboratory tools to insert, alter, or cut out pieces of DNA that contain one or more genes of interest.
