About this document

Transgenic Aspen for Trichlorophenol Degradation by skeyling is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study investigates the potential of transgenic hybrid aspen plants expressing a laccase gene from the fungus Trametes hirsuta to degrade the pollutant 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) for soil phytoremediation. The transgenic plants demonstrated significantly higher degradation efficiency of 92-98% compared to 82% in non-transformed controls, with specific lines showing enhanced performance. The research highlights the viability of using genetically modified woody plants for environmental cleanup, par
