- Description
- Quotes are due on 08 May 2008 at 1500 CST. Objective To produce within an 18 month window mature Valencia and Hamlin orange tissue germplasm transformed (genetically modified) to express an array of genes designed to impede growth of pathogenic bacteria specifically to provide demonstrated resistance to the Citrus Greening pathogen present in Florida commercial citrus groves. Qualifications At minimum a qualified scientific laboratory will meet the following qualifications: -Experience at transformation of a variety of plant hosts with suitable ‘freedom-to-operate’ for engineering technologies for Citrus species oDevelopment of transformation technologies of physiologically mature Citrus -Demonstrated ability to manipulate genes with antimicrobial properties: oSuitable ‘freedom-to-operate’ a variety of genes with demonstrated antimicrobial activities oDemonstration of experience and data that quantify parameters of antimicrobial efficacy of system oAbility to test and identify high resistance to Citrus Greening pathogen in Citrus hosts -Facilities suitable for Select Agent research and regulatory permits in place for experimentation with Citrus Greening pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus
