Application

Application Comment Organism
agriculture targeted FAEA expression is an effective strategy for improving wall digestibility in Festuca and, potentially, other grass species used for fodder or cellulosic ethanol production Aspergillus niger

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
genetically modified Festuca arundinacea plants are produced expressing an Aspergillus niger ferulic acid esterase (FAEA) targeted to the vacuole. The rice actin promoter proved to be effective for FAEA expression, as does the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S and maize ubiquitin promoters. Higher levels of expression are found with inducible heat-shock and senescence promoters. Aspergillus niger
