  • Patent number: 7122715
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to transgenic plants. More specifically, it relates to methods and compositions for the introduction of DNA using circular molecules that are not able to replicate outside a host cell. The circular molecules contain site-specific recombination sequences and allow transformation of host cells with DNA comprising only selected sequences of interest.
