| Currently, there are several reports on GM rice illegally available on market. To set up a defense measure in order to prevent GM contamination in Thai rice market, this activity was conducted by analyzing for CaMV 35S Promoter, NOS terminator and a transgene CryIA(b), which were carrying by the Bt63 rice. The Bt63 rice is an insect-resistant rice variety developed by the People Republic of China. The analyses were done by using a Real-Time PCR technique. DNA samples were extracted from rice products using a GeneScan extraction method and confirmed by a PCR using a primer pair KVM159/KVM160, which amplifies a rice species specific PLD gene encoding for an enzyme Phospholipase D. It was found that all samples could be amplified showing a PLD gene with a... |
