PGreen
{{lowercase title}}
The pGreen plasmids are vectors for plant transformation. They were first described in 2000 as components of a novel T-DNA binary system.{{cite journal | url=https://doi.org/10.1023%2FA%3A1006496308160 | doi=10.1023/A:1006496308160 | date=2000 | last1=Hellens | first1=Roger P. | last2=Edwards | first2=E.

As these plasmids have been taken up by the research community, the plasmids have been developed, expanding the resources available to the community.
Researchers are encouraged to contribute to this research community by submitting their vector sequence to genbank and providing a description of the plasmid on the site.

pSoup
This is the helper plasmid that provides the replicase function for the pSa replication origin of pGreen. pSoup is tetracyclin resistant and a complementary incompatibility group such that it can co-exist with pGreen in the Agrobacterium cell.
pSoup: the original help plasmid for pGreen. pGreen will not replicate in Agrobacterium if it is not present.{{Cite journal|date=2007-08-19|title=Cloning vector pSoup, complete sequence|url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/EU048870.1|journal=NCBI Nucleotide|language=en-US|archive-date=2022-01-24|access-date=2022-01-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220124054540/https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/EU048870.1|url-status=live}}
