Table 5 Heat-shocked and regenerated plants from different HSP::TRANSPOSASE/ATDs double transgenic aspen lines without any phenotypic alterations (anonymous approach) grown in the greenhouse were randomly selected and tested for ATDs transposition with the primer pair 16/37.

  1. Positive candidates were subjected to TAIL-PCR and sequencing to determine the new ATDs genomic insertion locus. Obtained sequences were blasted against the publicly available genome sequence of P. trichocarpa v2.0 (Phytozome v7.0; http://www.phytozome.net/poplar). Numbers of positive BLAST hits and, if applicable, of transcript annotations are given.
  2. In bold the three lines with highest numbers of positive ATDs transposition and BLAST hits.
