Summary Transgenic papaya (Carica papaya L.) plants were regenerated from embryogenic cultures that were cocultivated with a disarmed C58 strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens containing one of the following binary cosmid vectors: pGA482GG or pGA482GG/cpPRV-4. The T-DNA region of both binary vectors includes the chimeric genes for neomycin phosphotransferase II (NPTII) and ß-glucuronidase (GUS). In addition, the plant expressible coat protein (cp) gene of papaya ringspot virus (PRV) is flanked by the NPTII and GUS genes in pGA482GG/cpPRV-4. Putative transformed embryogenic papaya tissues were obtained by selection on 150 g·ml–1 kanamycin. Four putative transgenic plant lines were obtained from the cp gene– vector and two from the cp gene+ vector. GUS and NPTII expression were detected in leaves of all putative transformed plants tested, while PRV coat protein expression was detected in leaves of the PRV cp gene+ plant. The transformed status of these papaya plants was analyzed using both polymerase chain reaction amplification and genomic blot hybridization of the NPTII and PRV cp genes. Integration of these genes into the papaya genome was demonstrated by genomic blot hybridizations. Thus, like numerous other dicotyledonous plant species, papayas can be transformed with A. tumefaciens and regenerated into phenotypically normal-appearing plants that express foreign genes.Journal Series no. 3757 of the Hawaii Institute of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources 相似文献

Summary Plum hypocotyl slices were transformed with the coat protein (CP) gene of plum pox virus (PPV-CP) following cocultivation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens containing the plasmid pGA482GG/PPVCP-33. This binary vector carries the PPV-CP gene construct, as well as the chimeric neomycin phosphotransferase and -glucuronidase genes. Integration and expression of the transferred genes into regenerated plum plants was verified through kan resistance, GUS assays, and PCR amplification of the PPV-CP gene. Twenty-two transgenic clones were identified from approximately 1800 hypocotyl slices. DNA, mRNA, and protein analyses of five transgenic plants confirmed the integration of the engineered CP gene, the accumulation of CP mRNA and of PPV-CP-immunoreactive protein. CP mRNA levels ranged from high to undetectable levels, apparently correlated with gene structure, as indicated by DNA blot analysis. Western analysis showed that transgenic plants produced amounts of CP which generally correlated with amounts of detected mRNA. 相似文献

Transgenic petunia (Petunia hybrida Vilm.) plants were obtained from Agrobacterium-mediated shoot apex transformation. Studies at the phenotypic as well as molecular level established both the presence of the NPT II (neomycin phosphotransferase II) and GUS (-glucuronidase) genes and their level of activity. Twenty-nine primary transformed plants showed varying patterns of phenotype expression of both genes. NPT II and GUS expression in 7 primary plants over a 4-month interval showed varying levels of gene expression within and among individual plants. All primary transgenic plants were self-pollinated and backcrossed to establish the inheritance patterns of both genes. Mendelian and non-Mendelian inheritance patterns for both genes were observed. Analysis of the progeny showed poor transmission of the foreign genes through the pollen especially when two or more bands were present in the Southern hybridization. Most plants whose progeny segregated in Mendelian ratios for either the NPT II or GUS gene had just one copy of the gene. In this study where both foreign genes were examined in both self and test crosses, no transgenic plant showed Mendelian patterns of inheritance for both foreign traits.Department of Plant Pathology and Microbiology 相似文献

Embryogenic lines of Prunus subhirtella autumno rosa were established on a modified MS medium supplemented with 1 mg/l NAA, 0.06 mg/l IBA and 0.04 mg/l BA from petioles of axenically grown shoots of adult origin. To induce normal development of plantlets we compared a range of approaches on solid culture media as well as in suspension cultures including treatments with ABA, GA3, zeatin, darkness, and cold. A series of experiments were conducted to follow the temporal pattern of somatic embryo development.Separation of embryos at different stages of development was carried out by sieving the suspension cultures through nylon nets. While the embryogenic masses were used for further subcultures, well formed embryos were used for germination experiments.Transformed Prunus subhirtella plants were regenerated from somatic embryos by inoculating an embryogenic callus with Agrobacterium strain LBA 4404 containing the ß-glucuronidase (GUS) gene on plasmid pBinGUSint. Several putative transformed embryogenic calli were selected for continued proliferation on kanamycin containing media. Finally transgenic plants were regenerated on shoot multiplication medium containing kanamycin. Embryos and plants were shown to express the GUS gene by histochemical assays and northern blot analysis. With a yield of 110 transgenic lines from a single transformation experiment this approach appears ideal for the study of the influence on level of expression caused by different copy number, site of insertion etc. This will be helpful in establishing parameters according to which the best transgenic line for a chosen purpose should be selected.Abbreviations BA

Colonial bentgrass (Agrostis tenuis Sibth. Fl. Oxen.) is a cool-season turfgrass used on fairways in golf courses. The object of this study was to develop a more efficient, reliable and repeatable approach in transforming the grass using Agrobacterium (strain LBA4404), in which -glucuronidase (gus) gene was used as a reporter and hygromycin phosphotransferase (hpt) gene as a selectable marker. This vector was effective in transforming 7-week-old calluses derived from mature seeds cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2,4-D. A two-step solid medium selection with increasing hygromycin concentration (from 50 to 70 mg l–1) was used to obtain resistant calluses. Hundreds of transgenic plants have been produced from several independent transformed calluses. The presence of functional -glucuronidase (GUS) was detected in hygromycin-resistant calluses, young leaves and roots of transgenic plants. The transgenic plants collected from greenhouse showed strong resistance to 50 mg l–1 hygromycin solution. Four putative transgenic plants and one control plant were randomly chosen and analyzed by Southern blot analysis. Bands corresponding to the hpt gene were clearly shown in transgenic plants. 相似文献

Summary A reproducible system has been developed for the production of transgenic plants in indica rice using Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer. Three-week-old scutella calli served as an excellent starting material. These were infected with an Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA101 carrying a plasmid pIG121Hm containing genes for -glucuronidase (GUS) and hygromycin resistnace (HygR). Hygromycin (50 mg/l) was used as a selectable agent. Inclusion of acetosyringone (50M) in the Agrobacterium suspension and co-culture media proved to be indispensable for successful transformation. Transformation efficiency of Basmati 370 was 22% which was as high as reported in japonica rice and dicots. A large number of morphologically normal, fertile transgenic plants were obtained. Integration of foreign genes into the genome of transgenic plants was confirmed by Southern blot analysis. GUS and HygR genes were inherited and expressed in R1 progeny. Mendelian segregation was observed in some R1 progeny.Abbreviations GUS

Fertile transgenic sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum var. grossum) plants were regenerated at relatively high rate from various explants that were cocultivated withAgrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV3111-SE harbouring a plasmid that contains the cucumber mosaic virus coat protein (CMV-CP) gene. The rate of plant regeneration was found to depend on the types of explants cultured and the media used. Young leaves were most effective for bud induction and subsequent plant elongation while hypocotyls were the most inefficient. Southern analysis of DNA isolated from putative transgenic plants revealed that 3 out of 5 R1 plant lines reacted positively with the CMV-CP gene. Western blot analysis of CMV-CP containing R1 plants showed that two of them accumulated significant levels of the foreign gene product while the other two expressed it only, to low levels. Thus, like many other dicotyledonous plant species, sweet pepper can be transformed byA. tumefaciens and regenerated into healthy, fertile plants that express foreign genes.Abbreviations ABA

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of Brassica napus winter cultivars 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
An efficient protocol for Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of six commercial Brassica napus winter cultivars is described. Two B. napus spring cultivars were analysed for comparison. Five strains of A. tumefaciens with different combinations of nopaline and octopine chromosomal backgrounds and virulence plasmids were used for cocultivation. Selection of putative regenerated transgenic plants was performed on kanamycin- or hygromycin-containing media. The scores of transgenic plants were calculated on the basis of GUS (-glucuronidase) activity, detected by the histochemical X-Gluc test. Target tissue derived from the cut surface of cotyledon petioles resulted in successful transformation with all the winter cultivars tested. Target tissue from hypocotyl segments resulted in a successful transformation with only one winter cultivar. The transformation rates for B. napus winter cultivars in this study were higher than in previous reports. Southern blot analysis revealed that integration of marker genes occurred in single and in multiple copies and at multiple loci in the genome. The transgenic plants all grew normally and developed fertile flowers after a vernalization period. After self-pollination, Southern blot analysis of selected GUS active F1 plants revealed that introduced marker genes were stably inherited to the next generation. These data demonstrate that morphologically normal, fertile transgenic plants of B. napus winter cultivars can be achieved with both nopaline- and octopine-derived A. tumefaciens strains. This protocol should have a broad application in improvement of Brassica napus winter cultivars by introduction of foreign genes 相似文献

Summary
Agrobacterium-mediated gene transformation of Populus tremuloides Michx was accomplished by co-cultivation of leaf disks excised from greenhouse plants with Agrobacterium tumefaciens containing a binary Ti-plasmid vector harboring chimeric neomycin phosphotransferase (NPT II) and ß-glucuronidase (GUS) genes. Shoot regeneration in the presence of kanamycin was achieved when thidiazuron (TDZ) was used as a plant growth regulator. Transformation was verified by amplification of NPT II and GUS gene fragments from genomic DNA of transgenic plants with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and integration of these genes into nuclear genome of transgenic plants was confirmed by genomic Southern hybridization analysis. Histochemical assay revealed the expression of GUS gene in leaf, stem and root tissues of transgenic plants, further confirming the integration and expression of T-DNA in these plants. This protocol allows effective transformation and regeneration of quaking aspen using greenhouse-grown materials as an explant source. Whole plant regeneration from cuttings of fieldgrown mature quaking aspen and hybrid poplar (P. alba x P. grandidentata) was also readily achieved by using this protocol, which represents a potential system for producing transgenic quaking aspen and hybrid poplar of valuable genotypes.Abbreviations AMV RNA4

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated genetic transformation and the regeneration of transgenic plants was achieved in Hevea brasiliensis. Immature anther-derived calli were used to develop transgenic plants. These calli were co-cultured with A. tumefaciens harboring a plasmid vector containing the H. brasiliensis superoxide dismutase gene (HbSOD) under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter. The -glucuronidase gene (uidA) was used for screening and the neomycin phosphotransferase gene (nptII) was used for selection of the transformed calli. Factors such as co-cultivation time, co-cultivation media and kanamycin concentration were assessed to establish optimal conditions for the selection of transformed callus lines. Transformed calli surviving on medium containing 300 mg l-1 kanamycin showed a strong GUS-positive reaction. Somatic embryos were then regenerated from these transgenic calli on MS2 medium containing 2.0 mg l-1 spermine and 0.1 mg l-1 abscisic acid. Mature embryos were germinated and developed into plantlets on MS4 medium supplemented with 0.2 mg l-1 gibberellic acid, 0.2 mg l-1 kinetin (KIN) and 0.1 mg l-1 indole-3-acetic acid. A transformation frequency of 4% was achieved. The morphology of the transgenic plants was similar to that of untransformed plants. Histochemical GUS assay revealed the expression of the uidA gene in embryos as well as leaves of transgenic plants. The presence of the uidA, nptII and HbSOD genes in the Hevea genome was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction amplification and genomic Southern blot hybridization analyses.Communicated by L.

To improve turfgrasses using genetic engineering, we have developed a transformation system in turf-type tall fescue, one of the most important turfgrass species. Embryogenic cell cultures were established after callus induction from embryos of mature seed. The agarose-bead method with nurse cells was used to culture protoplasts and plants were regenerated from protoplasts of tall fescue cultured cells. To develop transgenic tall fescue plants, the hygromycin resistance gene and the -glucuronidase gene were introduced into the tall fescue protoplasts by electroporation. A high concentration (200 mg/l) of hygromycin was required to select transformed cells because of the high level of endogenous resistance to the antibiotic in tall fescue. Most of the transformed cells exhibited GUS activity and several plants were regenerated from these cells. The presence of introduced genes was confirmed by Southern blot hybridization of PCR amplified DNA from transgenic plants.Abbreviations

We compared rice transgenic plants obtained by Agrobacterium-mediated and particle bombardment transformation by carrying out molecular analyses of the T0, T1 and T2 transgenic plants. Oryza
sativa japonica rice (c.v. Taipei 309) was transformed with a construct (pWNHG) that carried genes coding for neomycin phosphotransferase (nptII), hygromycin phosphotransferase (Hygr), and -glucuronidase (GUS). Thirteen and fourteen transgenic lines produced via either method were selected and subjected to molecular analysis. Based on our data, we could draw the following conclusions. Average gene copy numbers of the three transgenes were 1.8 and 2.7 for transgenic plants obtained by Agrobacterium and by particle bombardment, respectively. The percentage of transgenic plants containing intact copies of foreign genes, especially non-selection genes, was higher for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. GUS gene expression level in transgenic plants obtained from Agrobacterium-mediated transformation was more stable overall the transgenic plant lines obtained by particle bombardment. Most of the transgenic plants obtained from the two transformation systems gave a Mendelian segregation pattern of foreign genes in T1 and T2 generations. Co-segregation was observed for lines obtained from particle bombardment, however, that was not always the case for T1 lines obtained from Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Fertility of transgenic plants obtained from Agrobacterium-mediated transformation was better. In summary, the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is a good system to obtain transgenic plants with lower copy number, intact foreign gene and stable gene expression, while particle bombardment is a high efficiency system to produce large number of transgenic plants with a wide range of gene expression. 相似文献

Leaf discs of grapevine cv. Seyval blanc originating from in vitro cultures were transformed with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA 4404 harbouring the vector pGJ42 carrying genes for chitinase and RIP (ribosome-inactivating protein) in an attempt to improve fungal resistance. The gene for neomycin phosphotransferase II (nptII) was used as the selectable marker gene. The explants were cocultivated for 2 days with recombinant Agrobacteria and then submitted to selection on NN69 medium containing 100 mg/l kanamycin. Successful regeneration and conversion of transgenic plantlets were obtained. Stable integration of foreign DNA was confirmed by PCR and Southern blot analyses, and protein expression was detected by Western blot. The regenerated transgenic plants were adapted to the greenhouse and showed no evidence of phenotypical alterations. The foreign genes introduced into the transformed plants did not effect the expected improvement in fungal disease resistance under field conditions for the major pests Uncinula necator and Plasmopara viticola. 相似文献

In vitro regeneration and biolistic transformation procedures were developed for several commercial chrysanthemum Dendranthema grandiflora Tzvelev, syn. Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat. cultivars using leaf and stem explants. Studies on the effect of several growth regulators and kanamycin on chrysanthemum regeneration were conducted, and a step-wise procedure to optimize kanamycin selection and recovery of transgenic plants was developed. A population of putative transformed chrysanthemum plants cvs. Blush, Dark Bronze Charm, Iridon, and Tara, was obtained after bombardment with tungsten microprojectiles coated with the binary plasmid pBIN19 containing the nucleocapsid (N) gene of tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and the marker gene neomycin phosphotransferase (NPT II). PCR analysis of 82 putative transgenic plants selected on kanamycin indicated that the majority of the lines (89%) were transformed and contained both genes (71%). However, some transgenic lines contained only one of the genes: either the NPT II (15%) or the TSWV (N) gene (14%). Southern blot analysis on selected transgenic lines confirmed the integration of the TSWV (N) gene into the chrysanthemum genome. These results demonstrate the development of an efficient procedure to transfer genetic material into the chrysanthemum genome and selectively regenerate transgenic chrysanthemum plants at frequencies higher than previously reported. 相似文献

Agrobacterium-mediated and direct gene transfer into protoplasts using PEG were both successfully used to produce stable, transformed peppermint
plants (Mentha×piperita L. cultivar Black Mitcham) with the limonene synthase gene. Stem internode explants found to possess a high level of organogenesis
through adventitious shoot formation were subjected to Agrobacterium tumefaciens disarmed strain GV3101 (pMP90). Following the development of an efficient protoplast-to-plant cycle from stem-isolated protoplasts,
they were used in direct gene transformations. In both cases the binary vector pGA643 carrying the nptII/GUS genes, both driven by the CaMV35S promoter, was used in preliminary plant-transformation studies. Later, GUS was replaced
with the limonene synthase gene. Kanamycin was used as a selective agent in all transformation experiments to obtain both
transformed protoplast-derived calli as well as putative transgenic shoots regenerated from internode explants. Both types
of transformation resulted in transgenic plants which were detected using PCR and confirmed by Southern-blot hybridizations.
Southern analysis revealed that the method of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is superior to the direct DNA uptake into protoplasts with regard to the stability of the insert
during the transformation event. Single transgenic plants were grown to 10% flowering in a greenhouse and the plants derived
both by the Agrobacterium and the protoplast-derived methods were generally observed to have essential oil profiles characterized by a high-menthone,
low-menthol, high-menthofuran and –pulegone content in comparison to a typical mid-west peppermint. Limonene varied only slightly,
around 1.2%, in transgenic plants produced by both methods.

Summary Genetically transformed plants of Brassica napus L. (oilseed rape) were obtained from hypocotyl expiants using Agrobacterium tumefaciens vectors. Hypocotyl explants were inoculated with disarmed or oncogenic A. tumefaciens strains, EHA101 and A281, and then cultured on media containing kanamycin. The A. tumefaciens strains harbored a binary vector, which contained a neomycin phosphotransferase II (NPTII) gene driven by the 35S promoter of cauliflower mosaic virus and an engineered napin (seed storage protein) gene with its own promoter (300 nucleotides 5 to the start of translation). Transformation of B. napus plants was confirmed by detection of NPT II enzyme activity, Southern blot analysis and inheritance of the kanamycin-resistance trait (NPT II gene) in the progeny. Expression of the engineered napin gene in embryos but not in leaves of transgenic plants was observed by Northern analysis. These data demonstrate that morphologically normal, fertile transgenic B. napus plants can be obtained using Agrobacterium as a gene vector and that developmentally regulated expression of reintroduced genes can be achieved. 相似文献

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Better Boy) plants were transformed with a fused gene containing a 2.2-kb promoter fragment of the tomato prosystemin
gene and the coding region of the β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene. The transgenic plants exhibited a low constitutive
level of prosystemin-β-glucuronidase gene expression, assayed by histochemical staining and GUS enzyme activity, that was
associated in the vascular bundles of leaf main veins, petiolules, petioles and stems. The GUS activity in the vascular bundles
in each tissue was increased by wounding and by treatment of the plants with methyl jasmonate, similar to the induction of
prosystemin in wild-type plants. The increase in GUS activity in the vascular bundles of leaves in response to wounding correlated
with the wound-inducible increase in prosystemin mRNA. Tissue printing, using rabbit anti-serum prepared against prosystemin,
confirmed that inducible prosystemin protein was localized in vascular bundles of petiolules, petioles and stems of wild-type
tomato plants. The evidence indicates that the 2.2-kb promoter region of the tomato prosystemin gene contains elements conferring
its correct temporal and spatial expression in the vascular bundles of transgenic tomato plants.

Summary In vitro-grown potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) microtubers were used as an explant source in the production of transgenic plants by Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer. In this study we tested four diverse potato cultivars, Lemhi Russet, Russet Burbank, Wauseon, and Yankee Chipper on various levels of zeatin riboside and 3-indoleacetyl-DL-aspartic acid for their ability to regenerate transgenic plants after infection with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Culturing microtuber blocks from the medullary area separately from cortex and epidermal tissue containing the eyes resulted in fewer transgenic plants, with transgenic shoots arising only from the tissue with the eyes. Lemhi and Russet Burbank microtuber discs were also transformed with a chimeric gene, CLaSP, designed to increase resistance to blackspot bruise in the tuber. This method resulted in transformed plants in every experiment, with an efficiency that appeared to be genotype dependent.Abbreviations GUS
