Organoleptic Outcrossing Phage Phenotype Plasmids Pleiotropic response Pollination Polyphagous Precautionary principle Prion Proteinase inhibitors Proteome Proximate analysis Rate-limiting enzyme Recombinant DNA (rDNA) Reporter gene Restriction enzymes Rhizobacteria Rhizosphere Salmonids Secondary metabolite Secondary pests Seed shattering Selectable marker gene Selfing Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) Smoltification Somaclonal variation Totipotency Transcription Transgene the taste and aroma properties of a food or chemical. mating between different individuals/species. a virus specifically attacking bacteria. the genetically and environmentally determined appearance of an organism. non-chromosomal pieces of DNA that code for a sub-set of cellular functions. multiple changes to an organism’s appearance associated with a single change at the genetic level. the transfer of pollen between the male germ cell of a plant (anther), and the female reproductive system (stigma) in seed plants. herbivores that feed on a wide variety of host plants from many different families. an approach to the management of risk when scientific knowledge is incomplete. normal cell protein present on nerve cell membranes. It is found in most mammals, but its normal function is unclear. Abnormal prions are thought to cause certain diseases including mad cow disease. a class of proteins capable of inhibiting insect feeding. the complete complement of proteins made by a given species in all its tissues and stages. chemical analysis of the main constituents of food. an enzyme whose activity controls the overall flow of activity through a sequence of reactions. DNA molecules created by splicing together two or more different pieces of DNA. a gene whose gene product is easily detected. DNA-cutting enzymes that recognize and bind to specific short sections of DNA sequence. bacteria found closely associated with plant roots. the soil zone immediately surrounding a plant root system. members of the fish family “Salmonidae,” including salmon, trout and chars. a chemical produced by a plant that does not appear to have a direct role in its growth. those species within an ecosystem that are normally kept in check by natural enemies. the spontaneous dispersal of mature seed from a plant following ripening. a gene whose product protects the cell containing it from a toxic chemical (e.g. antibiotic), used to identify the modified cells. mating by a single individual containing both female and male reproductive systems. single-base variations in the genetic code between different individuals of the same species. altered characteristics in plant tissues by extended growth in a laboratory test tube (possibly a form of mutation). the ability to regenerate a fully differentiated organism from a single cell. the synthesis of RNA (ribonucleic acid) molecules concerned in translating the sequence of DNA into the structure of protein molecules. a gene from one organism inserted into the genome of another.
Transposons Triploidy Vector Volunteer plant Wide cross short stretches of DNA with the capacity to move between different points within a genome. three copies of genetic information in each cell rather than the normal two copies found in most plants and animals. any organism or DNA construct that enables movement or transmission of another organism or gene. crop plants that persist for a few seasons without deliberate cultivation. a sexual cross between distantly related species that normally would not breed.
