Parasitic plants in the Orobanchaceae invade roots of neighboring plants to rob them of water and nutrients. Triphysaria is facultative parasite that parasitizes a broad range of plant species including maize and Arabidopsis. In this paper we describe transient and stable transformation systems for Triphysaria
versicolor Fischer and C. Meyer. Agrobacterium
tumefaciens and Agrobacterium
rhizogenes were both able to transiently express a GUS reporter in Triphysaria seedlings following vacuum infiltration. There was a correlation between the length of time seedlings were conditioned in
the dark prior to infiltration and the tissue type transformed. In optimized experiments, nearly all of the vacuum infiltrated
seedlings transiently expressed GUS activity in some tissue. Calluses that developed from transformed tissues were selected
using non-destructive GUS staining and after several rounds of in vivo GUS selection, we recovered uniformly staining GUS
calluses from which roots were subsequently induced. The presence and expression of the transgene in Triphysaria was verified using genomic PCR, RT PCR and Southern hybridizations. Transgenic roots were also obtained by inoculating A. rhizogenes into wounded Triphysaria seedlings. Stable transformed roots were identified using GUS staining or fluorescent microscopy following transformation
with vectors containing GFP, dsRED or EYFP. Transgenic roots derived from both A.
tumefaciens and A.
rhizogenes transformations were morphologically normal and developed haustoria that attached to and invaded lettuce roots. Transgenic
roots also remained competent to form haustoria in response to purified inducing factors. These transformation systems will
allow an in planta assessment of genes predicted to function in plant parasitism.

A simple and reproducible Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol for a recalcitrant legume plant, lentil (Lens culinaris M.) is reported. Application of wounding treatments and efficiencies of three Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains, EHA105, C58C1, and KYRT1 were compared for T-DNA delivery into lentil cotyledonary node tissues. KYRT1 was found
to be on average 2.8-fold more efficient than both EHA105 and C58C1 for producing transient β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene (gus) expression on cotyledonary petioles. Wounding of the explants, use of an optimized transformation protocol with the application
of acetosyringone and vacuum infiltration treatments in addition to the application of a gradually intensifying selection
regime played significant roles in enhancing transformation frequency. Lentil explants were transformed by inoculation with
Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain, KYRT1 harboring a binary vector pTJK136 that carried neomycin phosphotransferase gene (npt-II) and an intron containing gusA gene on its T-DNA region. GUS-positive shoots were micrografted on lentil rootstocks. Transgenic lentil plants were produced
with an overall transformation frequency of 2.3%. The presence of the transgene in the lentil genome was confirmed by GUS
assay, PCR, RT-PCR and Southern hybridization. The transgenic shoots grafted on rootstocks were successfully transferred to
soil and grown to maturity in the greenhouse. GUS activity was detected in vegetative and reproductive organs of T0, T1, T2 and T3 plants. PCR assays of T1, T2 and T3 progenies confirmed the stable transmission of the transgene to the next generations. 相似文献

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation system for perilla (Perilla frutescens Britt) was developed. Agrobacterium strain EHA105 harboring binary vector pBK I containing bar and γ-tmt cassettes or pIG121Hm containing nptII, hpt, and gusA cassettes were used for transformation. Three different types of explant, hypocotyl, cotyledon and leaf, were evaluated for transformation and hypocotyl explants resulted in the highest transformation efficiency with an average of 3.1 and 2.2%, with pBK I and pIG121Hm, respectively. The Perilla spp. displayed genotype-response for transformation. The effective concentrations of selective agents were 2 mg l−1 phosphinothricin (PPT) and 150 mg l−1 kanamycin, respectively, for shoot induction and 1 mg l−1 PPT and 125 mg l−1 kanamycin, respectively, for shoot elongation. The transformation events were confirmed by herbicide Basta spray or histochemical GUS staining of T0 and T1 plants. The T-DNA integration and transgene inheritance were confirmed by PCR and Southern blot analysis of random samples of T0 and T1 transgenic plants. 相似文献

This paper reports on the successful Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of oat, and on some factors influencing this process. In the first step of the experiments, three
cultivars, two types of explant, and three combinations of strain/vectors, which were successfully used for transformation
of other cereals were tested. Transgenic plants were obtained from the immature embryos of cvs. Bajka, Slawko and Akt and
from leaf base explants of cv. Bajka after transformation with A. thumefaciens strain LBA4404(pTOK233). The highest transformation rate (12.3%) was obtained for immature embryos of cv. Bajka. About 79%
of the selected plants proved to be transgenic; however, only 14.3% of the T0 plants and 27.5% of the T1 showed GUS expression. Cell competence of both types of explant differed in terms of their transformation ability and transgene
expression. The next step of the study was to test the suitability for oat transformation of the pGreen binary vector combined
with different selection cassettes: nptII or bar under the nos or 35S promoter. Transgenic plants were selected in combinations transformed with nos::nptII, 35S::nptII and nos::bar. The highest transformation efficiency (5.3%) was obtained for cv. Akt transformed with nos::nptII. A detailed analysis of the T0 plants selected from a given callus line and their progeny revealed that they were the mixture of transgenic, chimeric-transgenic
and non-transgenic individuals. Southern blot analysis of T0 and T1 showed simple integration pattern with the low copy number of the introduced transgenes. 相似文献

Summary In wild-type Scopolia parvilfora (Solanaceae) tissues, only the roots express the enzyme putrescine N-methyltransferase (PMT; EC 2.1.1.53), which is the first specific precursor of the tropane alkaloids. Moreover, the tropanane
alkaloid levels were the highest in the root (0.9 mg g−1 on a dry weight basis), followed by the stem and then the leaves. We metabolically engineered S. parviflora by introducing the tobacco pmt gene into its genome by a binary vector system that employs disarmed Agrobacterium rhizogenes. The kanamycin-resistant hairy root lines were shown to bear the pmt gene and to overexpress its mRNA and protein product by at least two-fold, as determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
and Northern and Western blottings, respectively. The transgenic lines also showed higher PMT activity and were morphologically
aberrant in terms of slower growth and the production of lateral roots. The overexpression of pmt markedly elevated the scopolamine and hyoscyamine levels in the transgenic lines that showed the highest pmt mRNA and PMT protein levels. Thus, overexpression of the upstream regulator of the tropane alkaloid pathway enhanced the
biosynthesis of the final product. These observations may be useful in establishing root culture systems that generate large
yields of tropane alkaloids.

We developed an efficient gene transfer method mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens for introgression of new rice for Africa (NERICA) cultivars, which are derivatives of interspecific hybrids between Oryza glaberrima Steud. and O. sativa L. Freshly isolated immature embryos were inoculated with A. tumefaciens LBA4404 that harbored binary vector pBIG-ubi::GUS or pIG121Hm, which each carried a hygromycin-resistance gene and a GUS
gene. Growth medium supplemented with 500 mg/l cefotaxime and 20 mg/l hygromycin was suitable for elimination of bacteria
and selection of transformed cells. Shoots regenerated from the selected cells on MS medium containing 20 g/l sucrose, 30 g/l
sorbitol, 2 g/l casamino acids, 0.25 mg/l naphthaleneacetic acid, 2.5 mg/l kinetin, 250 mg/l cefotaxime, and 20 mg/l hygromycin.
The shoots developed roots on hormone-free MS medium containing 30 mg/l hygromycin. Integration and expression of the transgenes
were confirmed by PCR, Southern blot analysis, and histochemical GUS assay. Stable integration, expression, inheritance, and
segregation of the transgenes were demonstrated by molecular and genetic analyses in the T0 and T1 generations. Most plants were normal in morphology and fertile. The transformation protocol produced stable transformants
from 16 NERICA cultivars. We also obtained transformed plants by inoculation of calluses derived from mature seeds, but the
frequency of transformation was lower and sterility was more frequent. 相似文献

Leaf piece explants of five Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. cultivars were transformed with an Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 harboring the plasmid pCAMBIA1301, which contains the β-glucuronidase (uidA) and hygromycin phosphotransferase (hpt) genes under the control of cauliflower mosaic virus 35S (CaMV35S) promoter. Transgenic plants were regenerated on Murashige
and Skoog (MS) medium fortified with 8.87 μM 6-benzylaminopurine, 0.22 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, and 20 μM silver
nitrate in the presence of 30 mg/l hygromycin. When co-culture took place in the presence of 100 μM acetosyringone, the efficiency
of stable transformation was found to be approximately 19% in the T
0 generation, with the transgenic plants and their progeny showing constitutive GUS expression in different plant organs. Southern
blot hybridization of uidA and hpt genes confirmed transgene integration within the genome of transformed plants of each cultivar. Inheritance of hpt gene for single copy T-DNA inserts showed a 3:1 pattern of Mendelian segregation in progeny plants through germination of
T
1 seeds on MS medium containing 30 mg/l hygromycin. The protocol described here reports superior transformation efficiency
over previously published protocols and should contribute to enhanced biotechnology applications in B. juncea. 相似文献

The dwarf pomegranate (Punica granatum L. var. nana) is a dwarf ornamental plant that has the potential to be the model plant of perennial fruit trees because it bears fruits
within 1 year of seedling. We established an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system for the dwarf pomegranate. Adventitious shoots regenerated from leaf segments were inoculated
with A. tumefaciens strain EHA105 harboring the binary vector pBin19-sgfp, which contains neomycin phosphotransferase (npt II) and green fluorescent protein (gfp) gene as a selectable and visual marker, respectively. After co-cultivation, the inoculated adventitious shoots were cut
into small pieces to induce regeneration, and then selected on MS medium supplemented with 0.5 μM α-naphthaleneacetic acid
(NAA), 5 μM N6-benzyladenine (BA), 0.3% gellan gum, 50 mg/l kanamycin, and 10 mg/l meropenem. Putative transformed shoots were regenerated
after 6–8 months of selection. PCR and PCR-Southern blot analysis revealed the integration of the transgene into the plant
genome. Transformants bloomed and bore fruits within 3 months of being potted, and the inheritance of the transgene was confirmed
in T1 generations. The advantage of the transformation of dwarf pomegranate was shown to be the high transformation rate. The establishment
of this transformation system is invaluable for investigating fruit-tree-specific phenomena. 相似文献

An efficient transformation system was developed for Centaurea montana by co-cultivation of leaf explants with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain AGL1 that contained a plasmid harboring the isopentenyl transferase gene under the control of the developmentally
regulated Atmyb32 promoter of Arabidopsis thaliana and the gene encoding for hygromycin resistance under the control of the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus 35S (CaMV35S) promoter.
A total of 990 explants were infected with Agrobacterium, and 18 shoots were regenerated resulting in an overall transformation efficiency of 1.8%. Molecular analyses, including
PCR, Southern blotting and RT-PCR, were performed on T0 and T1 plants to confirm chromosomal integration and expression of the transgene in the phenotypically normal transformed plants.
Transformation of C. montana was also performed using A. tumefaciens supervirulent strain EHA105 harboring the β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene. Expression of the GUS gene in the putative transgenics was confirmed using a histochemical GUS assay. 相似文献

Six pea (Pisum sativum L.) cultivars (Adept, Komet, Lantra, Olivin, Oskar, Tyrkys) were transformed via Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 with pBIN19 plasmid carrying reporter uidA (β-glucuronidase, GUS, containing potato ST-LS1 intron) gene under the CaMV 35S promoter, and selectable marker gene nptII (neomycin phosphotransferase II) under the nos promoter. Two regeneration systems were used: continual shoot proliferation from axillary buds of cotyledonary node in vitro, and in vivo plant regeneration from imbibed germinating seed with removed testa and one cotyledon. The penetration of Agrobacterium into explants during co-cultivation was supported by sonication or vacuum infiltration treatment. The selection of putative transformants in both regeneration systems carried out on media with 100 mg dm−3 kanamycin. The presence of introduced genes was verified histochemically (GUS assay) and by means of PCR and Southern blot analysis in T0 putative transformants and their seed progenies (T1 to T3 generations). Both methods, but largely in vivo approach showed to be genotype independent, resulting in efficient and reliable transformation system for pea. The in vivo approach has in addition also benefit of time and money saving, since transgenic plants are obtained in much shorter time. All tested T0 – T3 plants were morphologically normal and fertile.This research was supported by the National Agency for Agricultural Research (grants No. QE 0046 and QF 3072) and Ministry of Education of the Czech Republic (grant No. ME 433). 相似文献

Citrus FT (CiFT) cDNA, which promoted the transition from the vegetative to the reproductive phase in Arabidopsis thaliana, when constitutively expressed was introduced into trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata L. Raf.). The transgenic plants in which CiFT was expressed constitutively showed early flowering, fruiting, and characteristic morphological changes. They started to
flower as early as 12 weeks after transfer to a greenhouse, whereas wild-type plants usually have a long juvenile period of
several years. Most of the transgenic flowers developed on leafy inflorescences, apparently in place of thorns; however, wild-type
adult trifoliate orange usually develops solitary flowers in the axils of leaves. All of the transgenic lines accumulated
CiFT mRNA in their shoots, but there were variations in the accumulation level. The transgenic lines showed variation in phenotypes,
such as time to first flowering and tree shape. In F1 progeny obtained by crossing ‘Kiyomi’ tangor (C. unshiu × sinensis) with the pollen of one transgenic line, extremely early flowering immediately after germination was observed. The transgene
segregated in F1 progeny in a Mendelian fashion, with complete co-segregation of the transgene and the early flowering phenotype. These results
showed that constitutive expression of CiFT can reduce the generation time in trifoliate orange. 相似文献

The presence of selectable marker genes and vector backbone sequences has affected the safe assessment of transgenic plants.
In this study, the ovary-drip method for directly generating vector- and selectable marker-free transgenic plants was described,
by which maize was transformed with a linear GFP cassette (Ubi-GFP-nos). The key features of this method center on the complete removal of the styles and the subsequent application of a DNA
solution directly to the ovaries. The movement of the exogenous DNA was monitored using fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled
DNA, which showed that the time taken by the exogenous DNA to enter the ovaries was shortened compared to that of the pollen-tube
pathway. This led to an improved transformation frequency of 3.38% compared to 0.86% for the pollen-tube pathway as determined
by PCR analysis. The use of 0.05% surfactant Silwet L-77 + 5% sucrose as a transformation solution further increased the transformation
frequency to 6.47%. Southern blot analysis showed that the transgenic plants had low transgene copy number and simple integration
pattern. Green fluorescence was observed in roots and immature embryos of transgenic plants by fluorescence microscopy. Progeny
analysis showed that GFP insertions were inherited in T1 generation. The ovary-drip method would become a favorable choice for directly generating vector- and marker-free transgenic
maize expressing functional genes of agronomic interest. 相似文献

Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol has been developed for Eleusine coracana (var. PR-202) by varying several factors which influence T-DNA delivery. Green nodular regenerative calli with meristematic
nodules of seed origin were used as the target tissue for Agrobacterium
tumefaciens-mediated gene transfer. The highest frequency of transformation (44.4%) was observed when callus was infected, co-cultivated
and incubated at 22°C. Incorporation of higher level of CuSO4 in the regeneration medium had significantly positive effect on the recovery of transformed plants. PCR analysis of T
0 and T
1 generation plants with nptII-specific primers revealed the amplification of nptII gene. Southern blot analysis of six regenerated plants confirmed selectable marker gene integration in three plants. This
is a first report on Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of finger millet and will pave the way for further studies in this and other millet crops. 相似文献

Genetic transformation of creeping bentgrass mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens has been achieved. Embryogenic callus initiated from seeds (cv. Penn-A-4) was infected with an A. tumefaciens strain (LBA4404) harboring a super-binary vector that contained an herbicide-resistant bar gene driven either by the CaMV 35S promoter or a rice ubiquitin promoter. Plants were regenerated from 219 independent transformation events. The overall stable transformation efficiency ranged from 18% to 45%. Southern blot and genetic analysis confirmed transgene integration in the creeping bentgrass genome and normal transmission and stable expression of the transgene in the T1 generation. All independent transformation events carried one to three copies of the transgene, and a majority (60–65%) contained only a single copy of the foreign gene with no apparent rearrangements. We report here the successful use of Agrobacterium for the large-scale production of transgenic creeping bentgrass plants with a high frequency of a single-copy transgene insertion that exhibit stable inheritance patterns.Abbreviations

Successful <Emphasis Type="Italic">Agrobacterium</Emphasis>-Mediated Genetic Transformation of Maize Elite Inbred lines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An efficient transformation system was developed for maize (Zea mays L.) elite inbred lines using Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer by identifying important factors that affected transformation efficiency. The hypervirulent Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 proved to be better than octopine LBA4404 and nopaline GV3101. Improved transformation efficiencies were obtained when immature embryos were inocubated with Agrobacterium suspension cells (A600 = 0.8) for 20 min in the presence of 0.1% (v/v) of a surfactant (Tween20) in the infection medium. Optimized cocultivation was performed in the acidic medium (pH5.4) at 22 °C in the dark for 3 days. Using the optimized system, we obtained 42 morphologically normal, independent transgenic plants in four maize elite inbred lines representing different genetic backgrounds. Most of them (about 85%) are fertile. The transformation frequency (the number of independent, PCR-positive transgenic plants per 100 embryos infected) ranged from 2.35 to 5.26%. Stable integration, expression, and inheritance of the transgenes were confirmed by molecular and genetic analysis. One to three copies of the transgene were integrated into the maize nuclear genome. About 70% of the transgenic plants received a single insertion of the transgenes based on Southern analysis of 10 transformed events. T1 plants were analyzed and transmission of transgenes to the T1 generation in a Mendelian fashion was verified. This system should facilitate the introduction of agronomically important genes into commercial genotypes. 相似文献

Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins have been implicated in many stress responses of plants. In this report, a LEA
protein gene OsLEA3-1 was identified and over-expressed in rice to test the drought resistance of transgenic lines under the field conditions.
OsLEA3-1 is induced by drought, salt and abscisic acid (ABA), but not by cold stress. The promoter of OsLEA3-1 isolated from the upland rice IRAT109 exhibits strong activity under drought- and salt-stress conditions. Three expression
constructs consisting of the full-length cDNA driven by the drought-inducible promoter of OsLEA3-1 (OsLEA3-H), the CaMV 35S promoter (OsLEA3-S), and the rice Actin1 promoter (OsLEA3-A) were transformed into the drought-sensitive japonica rice Zhonghua 11. Drought resistance pre-screening of T1 families at anthesis stage revealed that the over-expressing families with OsLEA3-S and OsLEA3-H constructs had significantly
higher relative yield (yield under drought stress treatment/yield under normal growth conditions) than the wild type under
drought stress conditions, although a yield penalty existed in T1 families under normal growth conditions. Nine homozygous families, exhibiting over-expression of a single-copy of the transgene
and relatively low yield penalty in the T1 generation, were tested in the field for drought resistance in the T2 and T3 generations and in the PVC pipes for drought tolerance in the T2 generation. Except for two families (transformed with OsLEA3-A), all the other families (transformed with OsLEA3-S and OsLEA3-H
constructs) had higher grain yield than the wild type under drought stress in both the field and the PVC pipes conditions.
No significant yield penalty was detected for these T2 and T3 families. These results indicate that transgenic rice with significantly enhanced drought resistance and without yield penalty
can be generated by over-expressing OsLEA3-1 gene with appropriate promoters and following a bipartite (stress and non-stress) in-field screening protocol. 相似文献

The present study on efficacy of different Glomus species, an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus (G. aggregatum, G. fasciculatum, G. mosseae, G. intraradices) on various growth parameters such as biomass, macro and micronutrients, chlorophyll, protein, cytokinin and alkaloid content
and phosphatase activity of pink flowered Catharanthus roseus plants showed that all Glomus species except G. intraradices enhanced the chlorophyll, protein, crude alkaloid, phosphorus, sulphur, manganese and copper contents of C. roseus plants along with phosphatase activity significantly over uninoculated plants. However only G. mosseae and G. fasciculatum exhibited superior symbiotic relationship with the plant. G. mosseae was found to be the best for increasing the crude alkaloid content (8.19%) in leaf and also in increasing the quantity of
important alkaloids vincristine and vinblastine. 相似文献
