Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conservation of synteny refers to the preservation of gene order and orientation on chromosomes across different species. It does not hinder the discovery of agriculturally important genes. Arabidopsis is a model organism for genetic research and not typically used as a crop plant. Sequencing the rice genome was important because rice is a key crop plant that is related to many other important cereal crop plants. Inserting genes from beneficial microbes into plant genomes is a technique used to improve crop yields by enhancing the plant's ability to withstand environmental stresses or resist pests and diseases.
