Vaccines against many diseases have been successfully produced in plants. vaccine against rotavirus which causes diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration, and death in hundreds of thousands of infants annually worldwide have been produced using which plant?

Potato

Definition of terminologies:

1. Rotavirus is a genus of virus having double strand RNA. Rotaviruses caused the most common diarrhoeal disease among infants especially five years and below.

2. Genome refers to complete genetic information of an organism.

Explanation:

Research had shown that members of the rotavirus (e.g VP7) remain their neutralizing immunity when incorporated into the transgenic plant (potato genome). Multiplication of the virus is withhold by stabling the transcription process.

is in the form atp or adenosine triphosphate

step 1: nitrogen fixation- conversion of atmospheric no₂ into forms useful to plants by lightning, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

step 2: nitrification-process of converting ammonia to nitrite or nitrate.

step 3: assimilation-plant roots absorb new form of nitrogen.

step 4: ammonification-conversion of organic nitrogen to ammonia by bacteria involved in decomposition.

step 5: denitrification-bacteria turns the decomposed matter back into n₂o, which is released into atmosphere; repeat cycle.
