Split embryonic axes of 21-day old immature sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) embryos were bombarded by microparticles and then co-cultured with disarmed Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 bearing a binary vector carrying nptII and uidA genes. Apical shoot bud development and organogenesis induced on the explants led T0 transgenic plants. Southern blot analysis revealed complex integration patterns in T0 plants. The uidA gene segregated as a dominant trait and single-insertion events were observed in T1 plants. Patterns similar to those of T1 plants were observed in T2 progeny.  相似文献

We investigated the potential of a novel double T-DNA vector for generating marker-free transgenic plants. Co-transformation methods using a double T-DNA vector or using mixture of two Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains were compared, and showed that the double T-DNA vector method could produce marker-free transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants more efficiently. A dual marker double T-DNA vector was then constructed by assembling the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene mgfp5 and the neomycin phosphotransferase gene nptII into the same T-DNA. The frequency of co-transformants produced by this vector was 56.3%. Co-expression of mgfp5 and nptII was found in 28 out of 29 T1 lines, and segregation of the reporter -glucuronidase gene, gusA, from mgfp5 to nptII was found in 12 out of 29 T1 lines. Therefore, GFP could be used as a vital marker to improve the transformation efficiency and to easily monitor the segregation of marker genes, thus facilitating screening of marker-free progeny.  相似文献

Rapid and reproducible Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of sorghum   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
A rapid and reproducible Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol for sorghum has been developed. The protocol uses the nptII selectable marker gene with either of the aminoglycosides geneticin or paromomycin. A screen of various A. tumefaciens strains revealed that a novel C58 nopaline chromosomal background carrying the chrysanthopine disarmed Ti plasmid pTiKPSF2, designated NTL4/Chry5, was most efficient for gene transfer to sorghum immature embryos. A NTL4/Chry5 transconjugant harboring the pPTN290 binary plasmid, which carries nptII and GUSPlus TM expression cassettes, was used in a series of stable transformation experiments with Tx430 and C2-97 sorghum genotypes and approximately 80% of these transformation experiments resulted in the recovery of at least one transgenic event. The transformation frequencies among the successful experiments ranged from 0.3 to 4.5%, with the average transformation frequency being approximately 1% for both genotypes. Over 97% of the transgenic events were successfully established in the greenhouse and were fully fertile. Co-expression of GUSPlus TM occurred in 89% of the transgenic T0 events. Seed set for the primary transgenic plants ranged from 145 to 1400 seed/plant. Analysis of T1 progeny demonstrated transmission of the transgenes in a simple Mendelian fashion in the majority of events.  相似文献

A non-tissue culture approach for the generation of transgenic Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) plants using Agrobacterium tumefaciens was developed. Inflorescences with floral buds were vacuum infiltrated with a suspension of A. tumefaciens strain EHA105 carrying a binary vector with an intron-containing β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene (uidA) as a scorable marker and a neomycin phosphotransferase gene (nptII) as a selectable marker. The seeds of agro-infiltrated plants (T0) were germinated on a medium containing 130 mg l−1 kanamycin, and the seedlings that remained green were considered T1 transgenic plants. Histochemical GUS assays, PCR, Southern analysis, and RT-PCR confirmed that both transgenes were integrated into the genome of T1 plants and were stably transmitted and expressed for over three generations. The transformants were obtained within 3–4 mo at a transformation frequency of 0.8%. This method may facilitate functional genomics and improvement of Brassica with novel desirable traits and with less time and expense.  相似文献

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L., var. Coker 312) hypocotyl explants were transformed with three strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, LBA4404, EHA101 and C58, each harboring the recombinant binary vector pBI121 containing the chi gene insert and neomycin phosphotransferase (nptII) gene, as selectable marker. Inoculated tissue sections were placed onto cotton co-cultivation medium. Transformed calli were selected on MS medium containing 50 mg l−1 kanamycin and 200 mg l−1 cepotaxime. Putative calli were subsequently regenerated into cotton plantlets expressing both the kanamycin resistance gene and βglucuronidase (gus) as a reporter gene. Polymerase chain reaction was used to confirm the integration of chi and nptII transgenes in the T1 plants genome. Integration of chi gene into the genome of putative transgenic was further confirmed by Southern blot analysis. ‘Western’ immunoblot analysis of leaves isolated from T0 transformants and progeny plants (T1) revealed the presence of an immunoreactive band with MW of approximately 31 kDa in transgenic cotton lines using anti-chitinase-I polyclonal anti-serum. Untransformed control and one transgenic line did not show such an immunoreactive band. Chitinase specific activity in leaf tissues of transgenic lines was several folds greater than that of untransformed cotton. Crude leaf extracts from transgenic lines showed in vitro inhibitory activity against Verticillium dahliae.Transgenic plants currently growing in a greenhouse and will be bioassayed for improved resistance against V. dahlia the causal against of verticilliosis in cotton.  相似文献

Morphologically normal and fertile transgenic plants of mungbean with two transgenes, bar and α-amylase inhibitor, have been developed for the first time. Cotyledonary node explants were transformed by cocultivation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 harboring a binary vector pKSB that carried bialaphos resistance (bar) gene and Phaseolus vulgaris α-amylase inhibitor-1 (αAI-1) gene. Green transformed shoots were regenerated and rooted on medium containing phosphinothricin (PPT). Preculture and wounding of the explants, presence of acetosyringone and PPT-based selection of transformants played significant role in enhancing transformation frequency. Presence and expression of the bar gene in primary transformants was evidenced by PCR-Southern analysis and PPT leaf paint assay, respectively. Integration of the Phaseolus vulgaris α-amylase inhibitor gene was confirmed by Southern blot analysis. PCR analysis revealed inheritance of both the transgenes in most of the T1 lines. Tolerance to herbicide was evidenced from seed germination test and chlorophenol red assay in T1 plants. Transgenic plants could be recovered after 8–10 weeks of cocultivation with Agrobacterium. An overall transformation frequency of 1.51% was achieved.  相似文献

The genes encoding for a cucumber class III chitinase and Nicotiana plumbaginifolia class I glucanase were co-introduced into Slovak potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivar ETA using Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Expression of both genes was driven by wound-inducible polyubiquitin promoter isolated from Slovak potato breeding line 116/86. Analyses showed inducible, peel-specific expression of both transgenes under stress conditions. The effect of transgene expression on fungal susceptibility of transformants was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Experiments with crude protein extracts isolated from transgenic microtubers showed growth inhibition of Rhizoctonia solani hyphae in the range from 7.3 to 14.2%. In contrast, experiments performed in growth chamber conditions revealed that the polyubiquitin promoter driven transgene expression did not ensure any obvious increase of transgenic potato resistance against Rhizoctonia solani.  相似文献

To improve the transformation efficiency of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens, we explored the possibility of employing the basal portion of wheat seedling (shoot apical meristem) as the explants. Three genotypes of wheat were transformed by A. tumefaciens carrying β-1, 3-glucanase gene. After vernalization, the seeds to be transformed were germinated. When these seedlings grew up to 2∼5 cm, their coleoptile and half of the cotyledon were cut out, and the basal portions were infected by A. tumefaciens. A total 27 T0 transgenic plants were obtained, and the average transformation efficiency was as high as 9.82%. Evident segregation occurred in some of the T1 plants, as was indicated by PCR and Southern blotting analysis. Investigation of the T2 plants revealed that some transformed plants had higher resistance to powdery mildew than the controls. Northern blotting revealed that β-1, 3-glucanase gene was normally expressed in the T2 plants, which showed an increased resistance to powdery mildew. The results above indicate that the exogenous gene has been successfully integrated into the genome of wheat, transmitted and expressed in the transgenic progeny. From all the results above, it can be concluded that Agrobacterium inoculum to the basal portion of wheat seedling is a highly efficient and dependable transformation method. It can be developed into a practicable method for transfer of target gene into wheat.Tong-Jin Zhao and Shuang-Yi Zhao contributed equally to this paper.  相似文献

The effects of the hta gene encoding Helianthus tuberosus agglutinin (HTA) on an insect in the order Homoptera were investigated. Homologous cDNAs of hta-a, hta-b, hta-c and hta-d with CaMV35S as promoter were introduced into tobacco via Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Southern blot results showed that the exogenous hta gene was inserted into the genome of host plants, and northern blot analysis confirmed that hta was expressed in transgenic plants. A bioassay with peach-potato aphid (Myzus persicae) demonstrated that transgenic plants had deleterious effects on the insect. The average population of aphids fed on transgenic T0 plants during an 11-day assay decreased by 70%, compared controls. In transgenic plants of T1 generation, aphid fecundity inhibitions were 53.0%(hta-b) and 64.6% (hta-c), respectively. The development of aphids was notably retarded. We conclude that hta could be a novel and promising candidate for plant transgenic engineering against homopteran insect pests.  相似文献

Rice chitinase (chi11) and tobacco osmotin (ap24) genes, which cause disruption of fungal cell wall and cell membrane, respectively, were stacked in transgenic rice to develop resistance against the sheath blight disease. The homozygous marker-free transgenic rice line CoT23 which harboured the rice chi11 transgene was sequentially re-transformed with a second transgene ap24 by co-transformation using an Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain harbouring a single-copy cointegrate vector pGV2260∷pSSJ1 and a multi-copy binary vector pBin19∆nptII-ap24 in the same cell. pGV2260∷pSSJ1 T-DNA carried the hygromycin phosphotransferase (hph) and β-glucuronidase (gus) genes. pBin19∆nptII-ap24 T-DNA harboured the tobacco osmotin (ap24) gene. Co-transformation of the gene of interest (ap24) with the selectable marker gene (SMG, hph) occurred in 12 out of 18 T0 plants (67%). Segregation of hph from ap24 was accomplished in the T1 generation in one (line 11) of the four analysed co-transformed plants. The presence of ap24 and chi11 transgenes and the absence of the hph gene in the SMG-eliminated T1 plants of the line 11 were confirmed by DNA blot analyses. The SMG-free transgenic plants of the line 11 harboured a single copy of the ap24 gene. Homozygous, SMG-free T2 plants of the transgenic line 11 harboured stacked transgenes, chi11 and ap24. Northern blot analysis of the SMG-free plants revealed constitutive expression of chi11 and ap24. The transgenic plants with stacked transgenes displayed high levels of resistance against Rhizoctonia solani. Thus, we demonstrate the development of transgene-stacked and marker-free transgenic rice by sequential Agrobacterium-mediated co-transformation with the same SMG.  相似文献

Stable transformation of sunflower was achieved using a non-meristematic hypocotyl explant regeneration protocol of public inbred HA300B. Uniformly transformed shoots were obtained after co-cultivation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens carrying a gfp (green fluorescent protein) gene containing an intron that blocks expression of gfp in Agrobacterium. Easily detectable, bright green fluorescence of transformed tissues was used to establish an optimal regeneration and transformation procedure. By Southern blot analysis, integration of the gfp and nptII genes was confirmed. Stable transformation efficiency was 0.1%. From 68 T1 plants analyzed, 17 showed transmission of transgene DNA and 15 of them contained the intact gfp gene. Expression of gfp was detected in 10 T1 plants carrying the intact gfp gene using a fluorimetric assay or western blot analysis. Expression of the nptII gene was confirmed in 13 T1 plants. The transformation system enables the rapid transfer of agronomically important genes.  相似文献

The efficiency of Vigna mungo L. Hepper transformation was significantly increased from an average of 1% to 6.5% by using shoot apices excised from embryonic axes precultured on 10 M benzyl-6-aminopurine (BAP) for 3 days and wounded prior to inoculation in Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 carrying the binary vector pCAMBIA2301, which contains a neomycin phosphotransferase gene (nptII) and a -glucuronidase (GUS) gene (gusA) interrupted by an intron. The transformed green shoots that were selected and rooted on medium containing kanamycin, and which tested positive for nptII gene by polymerase chain reaction, were established in soil to collect seeds. GUS activity was detected in whole T0 shoots and T1 seedlings. All T0 plants were morphologically normal, fertile and the majority of them transmitted transgenes in a 3:1 ratio to their progenies. Southern analysis of T1 plants showed integration of nptII into the plant genome.  相似文献

Transgenic plants of the aromatic shrub Lavandula latifolia (Lamiaceae) were produced using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated gene transfer. Leaf and hypocotyl explants from 35–40-day old lavender seedlings were inoculated with the EHA105 strain carrying the nptII gene, as selectable marker, and the reporter gusA gene with an intron. Some of the factors influencing T-DNA transfer to L. latifolia explants were assessed. Optimal transformation rates (6.0 ± 1.6% in three different experiments) were obtained when leaf explants precultured for 1 day on regeneration medium were subcultured on selection medium after a 24 h co-cultivation with Agrobacterium. Evidence for stable integration was obtained by GUS assay, PCR and Southern hybridisation. More than 250 transgenic plants were obtained from 37 independent transformation events. Twenty-four transgenic plants from 7 of those events were successfully established in soil. -glucuronidase activity and kanamycin resistance assays in greenhouse-grown plants from two independent transgenic lines confirmed the stable expression of both gusA and nptII genes two years after the initial transformation. Evidence from PCR data, GUS assays and regeneration in the presence of kanamycin demonstrated a 1:15 Mendelian segregation of both transgenes among seedlings of the T1 progeny of two plants from one transgenic L. latifolia line.  相似文献

A reproducible method for transformation of sugarcane using various strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens (A. tumefaciens) (AGL0, AGL1, EHA105 and LBA4404) has been developed. The selection system and co-cultivation medium were the most important factors determining the success of transformation and transgenic plant regeneration. Plant regeneration at a frequency of 0.8–4.8% occurred only when callus was transformed with A. tumefaciens carrying a newly constructed superbinary plasmid containing neomycin phosphotransferase (nptII) and β-glucuronidase (gusA) genes, both driven by the maize ubiquitin (ubi-1) promoter. Regeneration was successful in plants carrying the nptII gene but not the hygromycin phosphotransferase (hph) gene. NptII gene selection was imposed at a concentration of 150 mg/l paromomycin sulphate and applied either immediately or 4 days after the co-cultivation period. Co-cultivation on Murashige and Skoog (MS)-based medium for a period of 4 days produced the highest number of transgenic plants. Over 200 independent transgenic lines were created using this protocol. Regenerated plants appeared phenotypically normal and contained both gusA and nptII genes. Southern blot analysis revealed 1–3 transgene insertion events that were randomly integrated in the majority of the plants produced.  相似文献

 A 1.1-kb DNA fragment containing the coding region of a thaumatin-like protein (TLP-D34), a member of the PR-5 group, was cloned into the rice transformation vector pGL2, under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter. The Indica rice cultivars, ‘Chinsurah Boro II’, ‘IR72’, and ‘IR51500’ were transformed with the tlp gene construct by PEG-mediated direct gene transfer to protoplasts and by biolistic transformation using immature embryos. The presence of the chimeric gene in T0, T1, and T2 transgenic plants was detected by Southern blot analysis. The presence of the expected 23-kDa TLP in transgenic plants was confirmed by Western blot analysis and by staining with Coomassie Brilliant Blue. Bioassays of transgenic plants challenged with the sheath blight pathogen, Rhizoctonia solani, indicated that over-expression of TLP resulted in enhanced resistance compared to control plants.

Transgenic rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Pusa basmati 1), overexpressing the Rs-AFP2 defensin gene from the Raphanus sativus was generated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. Expression levels of Rs-AFP2 ranged from 0.45 to 0.53% of total soluble protein in transgenic plants. It was observed that constitutive expression of Rs-AFP2 suppresses the growth of Magnaporthe oryzae and Rhizoctonia solani by 77 and 45%, respectively. No effect on plant morphology was observed in the Rs-AFP2 expressing rice lines. The inhibitory activity of protein extracts prepared from leaves of Rs-AFP2 plants on the in vitro growth of M. oryzae indicated that the Rs-AFP2 protein produced by transgenic rice plants was biologically active. Transgene expression of Rs-AFP2 was not accompanied by an induction of pathogenesis-related (PR) gene expression, suggesting that the expression of Rs-AFP2 directly inhibits the pathogens. Here, we demonstrate that transgenic rice plants expressing the Rs-AFP2 gene show enhanced resistance to M. oryzae and R. solani, two of the most important pathogens of rice.  相似文献
