Learn to genetically engineer plants using agrobacterium! This kit allows you to engineer the leaves of the Nicotiana tabacum plant turning them red.
How does it work?
Plasmids inserted into agrobacterium can move into plant leaves through horizontal gene transfer. The red pigment takes 2-4 days to express in successfully engineered cells.

Incredibly simple to use and explain to school children and college students toward the necessary understanding of gene ? control and phenotypical manifestation.
I just recently bought this to keep my mind occupied and man oh man this kit rocks my world. I have now developed a passion and love for genetic engineering. I highly recommend you buy this!!!
