The Green Gene
Revolution: tasty food, every day -
LemnaTec GmbH and Keygene N.V. collaborate in crop
breeding
by Harold Verstegen,
Vice President,
Bioinformatics
Yield, stability, quality and shelf life of fruit and
vegetables are some of the major challenges for
breeders. Yet, consistent quality of taste, color and
texture cannot be guaranteed for products we buy at the
natural and organic produce retailer, at farmers’
markets, and in supermarkets..

KeyGene, the Green
Gene revolution goes America
KeyGene is the
largest European Agro Biotech company and decided in
2007 to found a subsidiary in the USA, Keygene Inc.
KeyGene’s Green Gene approach is to focus on the use of
Advanced Molecular Breeding & Molecular Mutagenesis to
genetically improve traits of commercial interest in the
6F (food, feed, fiber, fuel, flowers and fun) crops.
Headquartered in Rockville, Maryland, Keygene Inc., was
setup to expand on KeyGene’s excellent crop breeding
research.

Establishing
genotype to phenotype relations: from art to science
by
Anker P. Sorensen,
is Vice President,
Keygene Applied Research
Trait elucidation
has been and will continue to be one of the major
expertise fields of the KeyGene research community. Our
molecular marker technologies, which we have now
integrated in the “Accelerated Molecular Breeding”
platform, have been instrumental in elucidation of the
genetic components and inheritance mechanisms of simple
and moderately complex traits.

KeyGene InnovatorsClub
members benefit from interaction
Since its start in April 2008, seven motivated plant
breeding companies have joined the KeyGene
InnovatorsClub. KeyGene encourages companies to join and
aims for 20 participants in 2010. The KeyGene
InnovatorsClub enabled the participating companies to
implement new innovative molecular techniques by
collaboration between the companies and by the support

KeyBase™ A new mutagenesis technique
During the
Genomics in Business 2009 conference in Amsterdam,
KeyGene® announced its new
technology: KeyBase™. KeyBase™ is an innovative
method to achieve rapid and more precise plant breeding. The
method enables the introduction of small desired alterations in
the genetic material of plants, using a natural process. This
KeyBase™ process can be compared with natural mutagenesis,
with the difference that a single change is induced at one
specific location on the DNA.
