Many farmer-popular indica rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars are recalcitrant to Agrobacterium-mediated transformation through tissue culture and regeneration. In planta transformation using Agrobacterium could therefore be a useful alternative for indica rice. A simple and reproducible in planta protocol with higher transformation efficiencies than earlier reports was established for a recalcitrant indica rice genotype. Agrobacterium tumefaciens containing the salt tolerance-enhancing Pea DNA Helicase45 (PDH45) gene, with the reporter and selectable marker genes, gus-INT (β-glucuronidase with intron) and hygromycin phosphotransferase (hpt), respectively, were used. Overnight-soaked mature embryos were infected and allowed to germinate, flower, and set T1 seeds. T0 plants were considered positive for the transgene if the spikelets of one or more of their panicles were positive for gus. Thereafter, selection at T1 was done by germination in hygromycin and transgenic status re-confirmation by subjecting plantlet DNA/RNA to gene-specific PCR, Southern and semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Additionally, physiological screening under saline stress was done at the T2 generation. Transformation efficiency was found to be 30–32% at the T0 generation. Two lines of the in planta transformed seedlings of the recalcitrant rice genotype were shown to be saline tolerant having lower electrolyte leakage, lower Na+/K+, minimal leaf damage, and higher chlorophyll content under stress, compared to the WT at the T2 generation. 相似文献

An endochitinase gene ‘ech42’ from the biocontrol fungus ‘Trichoderma virens’ was introduced to Brassica juncea (L). Czern and Coss via Agrobaterium tumefaciens mediated genetic transformation method. Integration and expression of the ‘ech42’ gene in transgenic lines were confirmed by PCR, RT-PCR and Southern hybridization. Transgenic lines (T1) showed expected 3:1 Mendelian segregation ratio when segregation analysis for inheritance of transgene ‘hpt’ was carried out. Fluorimetric analysis of transgenic lines (T0 and T1) showed 7 fold higher endochitinase activity than the non-transformed plant. Fluorimetric zymogram showed presence of endochitinase (42 kDa) in crude protein extract of transgenic lines. In detached leaf bioassay with fungi Alternaria brassicae and Alternaria brassicicola, transgenic lines (T0 and T1) showed delayed onset of lesions as well as 30–73 % reduction in infected leaf area compared to non-transformed plant. 相似文献

Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum O. Swartz) is an important warm-season turfgrass with great salinity tolerance. Based on establishment of embryogenic callus induction and regeneration from different mature seeds of ‘Sea Spray’, an Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation was established and optimized in this study. Three clones of callus were selected for examining transformation conditions using Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain AGL1 carrying the binary vector pCAMBIA1305.2, containing β-glucuronidase (GUS) as a reporter gene and hygromycin phosphotransferase (HPT) as a selective marker gene. The results showed that a high transient transformation efficiency was observed by using Agrobacterium concentration of OD600?=?0.6, 5 min of sonication treatment during Agrobacterium infection, and 2 d of co-cultivation. By using the optimized transformation conditions, transgenic seashore paspalum plants were obtained. PCR and Southern blot analysis showed that T-DNA was integrated into the genomes of seashore paspalum. GUS staining experiments showed that the GUS gene was expressed in transgenic plants. Our results suggested that the transformation protocol will provide an effective tool for breeding of seashore paspalum in the future. 相似文献

Transformation of commercially important indica cultivars remains challenging for the scientific community even though Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocols for a few indica rice lines have been well established. We report successful transformation of a commercially important restorer line JK1044R of indica rice hybrid JKRH 401. While following existing protocol, we optimized several parameters for callusing, regeneration and genetic transformation of JK1044R. Calli generated from the rice scutellum tissue were used for transformation by Agrobacterium harboring pCAMBIA2201. A novel two tire selection scheme comprising of Geneticin (G418) and Paramomycin were deployed for selection of transgenic calli as well as regenerated plantlets that expressed neomycin phosphotransferase-II gene encoded by the vector. One specific combination of G418 (30 mg l?1) and Paramomycin (70 mg l?1) was very effective for calli selection. Transformed and selected calli were detected by monitoring the expression of the reporter gene uidA (GUS). Regenerated plantlets were confirmed through PCR analysis of nptII and gus genes specific primers as well as dot blot using gus gene specific as probe. 相似文献

Withania somnifera one of the most reputed Indian medicinal plant has been extensively used in traditional and modern medicines as active constituents. A high frequency genotype and chemotype independent Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol has been developed for W. somnifera by optimizing several factors which influence T-DNA delivery. Leaf and node explants of Withania chemotype was transformed with A. tumefaciens strain GV3101 harboring pIG121Hm plasmid containing the gusA gene encoding β-glucuronidase (GUS) as a reporter gene and the hptII and the nptII gene as selection markers. Various factors affecting transformation efficiency were optimized; as 2 days preconditioning of explants on MS basal supplemented with TDZ 1 μM, Agrobacterium density at OD600 0.4 with inclusion of 100 μM acetosyringone (As) for 20 min co-inoculation duration with 48 h of co-cultivation period at 22 °C using node explants was found optimal to improved the number of GUS foci per responding explant from 36?±?13.2 to 277.6?±?22.0, as determined by histochemical GUS assay. The PCR and Southern blot results showed the genomic integration of transgene in Withania genome. On average basis 11 T0 transgenic plants were generated from 100 co-cultivated node explants, representing 10.6 % transformation frequency. Our results demonstrate high frequency, efficient and rapid transformation system for further genetic manipulation in Withania for producing engineered transgenic Withania shoots within very short duration of 3 months. 相似文献

A reliable Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and shoot regeneration protocol was developed for breeding lines of commercially important western-shipper cantaloupe and honeydew melons, ‘F39’ and ‘150’, respectively. Different media were tested to select a shoot regeneration system for each of three elite breeding lines ‘F39’, ‘141’ and ‘TMS’. Murashige &; Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with 1 mg l?1 benzyladenine (BA), 0.26 mg l?1 abscisic acid (ABA) and 0.8 mg l?1 indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) was used for shoot regeneration from cotyledonary explants in ‘F39’ and ‘150’. Kanamycin sensitivity as well as Timentin? and Clavamox® were evaluated using wild-type ‘F39’ and ‘150’ cotyledons. Kanamycin concentrations of 200 and 150 mg l?1 were chosen as the threshold levels for ‘F39’ and ‘150’, respectively. No significant differences were found between Timentin? and Clavamox® in ‘F39’; however, Clavamox® reduced the incidence of vitrification and increased the frequency of shoot elongation in ‘150’. A. tumefaciens strain EHA105, harboring pCNL56 carrying neomycin phosphotransferase II (nptII) and gusA reporter genes, was selected to establish a transformation protocol for ‘F39’ and ‘150’. Putative transformants were evaluated using β-glucuronidase (GUS) histochemical assay, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Southern blot analyses. Based on these parameters, the transformation efficiency for cantaloupe ‘F39’ was 0.3% and that for honeydew ‘150’ was 0.5%. 相似文献

This is the first report on Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation of Withania somnifera for expression of a foreign gene in hairy roots. We transformed leaf and shoot tip explants using binary vector having gusA as a reporter gene and nptII as a selectable marker gene. To improve the transformation efficiency, acetosyringone (AS) was added in three stages, Agrobacterium liquid culture, Agrobacterium infection and co-culture of explants with Agrobacterium. The addition of 75 μM AS to Agrobacterium liquid culture was found to be optimum for induction of vir genes. Moreover, the gusA gene expression in hairy roots was found to be best when the leaves and shoot tips were sonicated for 10 and 20s, respectively. Based on transformation efficiency, the Agrobacterium infection for 60 and 120 min was found to be suitable for leaves and shoot tips, respectively. Amongst the various culture media tested, MS basal medium was found to be best in hairy roots. The transformation efficiency of the improved protocol was recorded 66.5 and 59.5?% in the case of leaf and shoot tip explants, respectively. When compared with other protocols the transformation efficiency of this improved protocol was found to be 2.5 fold higher for leaves and 3.7 fold more for shoot tips. Southern blot analyses confirmed 1–2 copies of the gusA transgene in the lines W1-W4, while 1–4 transgene copies were detected in the line W5 generated by the improved protocol. Thus, we have established a robust and efficient A. rhizogenes mediated expression of transgene (s) in hairy roots of W. somnifera. 相似文献

Artemisia pallens is an important medicinal plant. In-vitro regeneration and multiplication of A. pallens have been established using attached cotyledons. Different growth regulators were considered for regeneration of multiple shoots. An average of 36 shoots per explants were obtained by culturing attached cotyledons on Murashige and Skoog’s medium containing 2 mg/L BAP and 0.1 mg/L NAA, after 45 days. The shoots were rooted best on half Murashige and Skoog’s medium with respect to media containing 1 mg/L IBA or 1 mg/L NAA. Different parameters such as type of bacterial strains, OD600 of bacterial culture, co-cultivation duration, concentration of acetosyringone and explants type were optimized for transient expression of the reporter gene. Agrobacterium tumefaciens harbouring pCambia1301 plasmid carrying β-glucuronidase as a reporter gene and hygromycin phosphotransferase as plant selectable marker genes were used for genetic transformation of A. pallens. Hygromycin lethality test showed concentration of 15 mg/L were sufficient to inhibit the growth of attached cotyledons and multiple shoot buds of nontransgenics in selection media. Up to 83 % transient transformation was found when attached cotyledons were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium strain AGL1 for 2 days at 22 °C on shoot induction medium. The bacterial growth was eliminated by addition of cefotaxime (200 mg/L) in selection media. T0 transgenic plants were confirmed by GUS histochemical assay and further by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using uidA and hpt gene specific primers. The study is useful in establishing technological improvement in A. pallens by genetic engineering. 相似文献

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation system was established for Hybanthus enneaspermus using leaf explants with the strain LBA4404 harbouring pCAMBIA 2301 carrying the nptII and gusA genes. Sensitivity of leaf explants to kanamycin was standardized (100 mg/l) for screening the transgenic plants. Transformation parameters (OD, virulence inducer, infection time, co-cultivation period, bactericidal antibiotics, etc.) influencing the gene transfer and integration were assessed in the present investigation. Fourteen-day pre-cultured explants were subjected with Agrobacterium strain LBA4404. Optimized parameters such as culture density of 0.5 OD600, infection time of 6 min, AS concentration of 150 µM with 3 days co-cultivation revealed maximum transformation efficiency based on GUS expression assay. The presence of gusA in transgenics was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction and Southern blotting analysis. The present transformation experiment yielded 20 shoots/explant with higher transformation efficiency (28 %). The protocol could be used to introduce genes for trait improvement as well as for altering metabolic pathway for secondary metabolites production. 相似文献

In order to evaluate the effect of inoculation and co-cultivation media elements on transformation frequency in Petunia hybrida, modified MS media with different elements were tested on Alvan and Large Flower Alvan (LF Alvan), two local cultivars. Leaf explants of both cultivars were inoculated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 (pBI121) containing neomycin phosphotransferase (nptII) and an intron-containing β-glucuronidase (gus) genes. When medium lacking KH2PO4, NH4NO3, KNO3, and CaCl2 was used as inoculation and co-cultivation medium, a higher frequency of transformation for Alvan (22%) and LF Alvan (16%) was obtained. Kanamycin resistant plantlets were stained blue by GUS assay. Furthermore, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis revealed the presence of both gus and nptII genes in all putative transformants. Finally, southern blot hybridization confirmed insertion of 1–4 copies of gus gene in transgenic plants. 相似文献

Plant transformation has emerged as an important tool to integrate foreign genes in the plant genome to modify the plants for desired traits. Though many techniques of plant transformation are available; getting single copy transgenic events and cost associated remains a big challenge. Thus Agrobacterium-mediated transformation remains the method of choice due to multiple advantages. In the present work a tissue culture free protocol of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation was optimized in safflower, an oil seed crop recalcitrant to transformation. As a proof of concept we selected pCAMBIA2300 gene cassette containing Arabidopsis specific delta 15 desaturase (FAD3) downstream to truncated seed specific promoter beta-conglycinin and optimized tissue culture free protocol of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation using embryos as explants. Addition of silwet L-77, sonication treatment, vacuum infiltration in infection medium and use of paper wicks in co-cultivation period increased the transformation efficiency to 19.3%. Further, success in transformation was confirmed via product accumulation in 21 independent transgenic events wherein oil in transformed seeds showed significant accumulation of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA; 18:3; n3) which is generated from linoleic acid (LA; 18:2; n3) in a FAD3 catalyzed reaction. The present protocol can be utilized to produce transgenic safflower with different desired characters. 相似文献

Interest in using renewable sources of carbon, especially lignocellulosic biomass, for the production of hydrocarbon fuels and chemicals has fueled interest in exploring various organisms capable of producing hydrocarbon biofuels and chemicals or their precursors. The oleaginous (oil-producing) yeast Lipomyces starkeyi is the subject of active research regarding the production of triacylglycerides as hydrocarbon fuel precursors using a variety of carbohydrate and nutrient sources. The genome of L. starkeyi has been published, which opens the door to production strain improvements through the development and use of the tools of synthetic biology for this oleaginous species. The first step in establishment of synthetic biology tools for an organism is the development of effective and reliable transformation methods with suitable selectable marker genes and demonstration of the utility of the genetic elements needed for expression of introduced genes or deletion of endogenous genes. Chemical-based methods of transformation have been published but suffer from low efficiency. To address these problems, Agrobacterium-mediated transformation was investigated as an alternative method for L. starkeyi and other Lipomyces species. In this study, Agrobacterium-mediated transformation was demonstrated to be effective in the transformation of both L. starkeyi and other Lipomyces species. The deletion of the peroxisomal biogenesis factor 10 gene was also demonstrated in L. starkeyi. In addition to the bacterial antibiotic selection marker gene hygromycin B phosphotransferase, the bacterial β-glucuronidase reporter gene under the control of L. starkeyi translation elongation factor 1α promoter was also stably expressed in six different Lipomyces species. The results from this study demonstrate that Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is a reliable and effective genetic tool for homologous recombination and expression of heterologous genes in L. starkeyi and other Lipomyces species. 相似文献

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a model crop plant for the study of fruit ripening and disease resistance. Here we present a systemic study on in planta transformation of tomato with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 harboring pCAMBIA1303 binary vector bearing HPTII as a plant selectable marker and mGFP/GUS fusion as the reporter gene. We attempted the transformation of tomato at different developmental stages viz. during seed germination, seedling growth, and floral bud development. The imbibition of seeds with Agrobacterium suspension led to seed mortality. The vacuum infiltration of seedlings with Agrobacterium suspension led to sterility in surviving plants. Successful transformation could be achieved either by dipping of developing floral buds in the Agrobacterium suspension or by injecting Agrobacterium into the floral buds. Most floral buds subjected to dip as well as to injection either aborted or had arrested development. The pollination of surviving floral buds with pollen from wild-type plants yielded fruits bearing seeds. A transformation efficiency of 0.25–0.50% was obtained on floral dips/floral injections. Transgenic plants were selected by screening seedlings for hygromycin resistance. The presence of the transgene in genomic DNA was confirmed by Southern blot analysis and expression of the reporter gene up to the T4 generation. The amenability of tomato for in planta transformation simplifies the generation of transgenic tomato plants obviating intervening tissue culture. 相似文献

In vitro culture and genetic transformation of black gram are difficult due to its recalcitrant nature. Establishment of gene transfer procedure is a prerequisite to develop transgenic plants of black gram in a shorter period. Therefore, genetic transformation was performed to optimize the factors influencing transformation efficiency through Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated in planta transformation using EHA 105 strain harbouring reporter gene, bar, and selectable marker, gfp-gus, in sprouted half-seed explants of black gram. Several parameters, such as co-cultivation, acetosyringone concentration, exposure time to sonication, and vacuum infiltration influencing in planta transformation, have been evaluated in this study. The half-seed explants when sonicated for 3 min and vacuum infiltered for 2 min at 100 mm of Hg in the presence of A. tumefaciens (pCAMBIA1304– bar) suspensions and incubated for 3 days co-cultivation in MS medium with 100 µM acetosyringone showed maximum transformation efficiency (46 %). The putative transformants were selected by inoculating co-cultivated seeds in BASTA® (4 mg l?1) containing MS medium followed by BASTA® foliar spray on 15-day-old black gram plants (35 mg l?1) in green house, and the transgene integration was confirmed by biochemical assay (GUS), Polymerase chain reaction, Dot-blot, and Southern hybridisation analyses. 相似文献

Songnen meadow grassland is a typical saline-alkaline land majorly comprised of carbonate soil. Salix mongolica, a woody species with high adaptability to carbonate soil, is an important supplementary feed in the grassland. Therefore, it is necessary to cultivate new varieties of S. mongolica by using genetic engineering methods to reveal the functions of the plant’s related genes and to construct a plant regeneration and genetic transformation system. In this study, we used leaves of S. mongolica as the explants for induction of leaf-based callus, differentiation of adventitious buds and rooting of adventitious by adding different ratios of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 6-benzyl aminopurine and naphthaleneacetic acid into the Murashige and Skoog medium. Under the screening conditions of 7.5 mg L?1 hygromycin B and transformation period of 2–5 min using a specific Agrobacterium containing pCXSN-gus plasmids infection concentration (ODλ600?=?0.5), we obtained transgenic strains. PCR detected exogenous gus gene integrated into the chromosome of S. mongolica, Southern blot analysed the T0 transgenic strains single copy inserted into the chromosome, Northern hybridization signals indicated that gus gene mRNA was expressed in the five contemporary transgenic strains. The infected callus, adventitious buds, and regenerated plants displayed a blue color through detection by GUS staining, which reflected the activity of ß-glucuronidase enzyme. This result demonstrated the successful establishment of an Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation system from the callus (S. mongolica leaf as a transformation receptor). 相似文献

Hybrid plants resistant to phosphinothricin (PPT) are obtained as a result of experiments with somatic hybridization between Brassica napus L. cv. Kalinins’kyy and Orychophragmus violaceus L. O.E. Shulz. The hybrids inherited PPT resistance from O. violaceus plants that had been previously transformed by a vector containing the maize transposon system Spm/dSPm with bar gene located within the nonautonomous transposon. The morphologically obtained plants occupy an intermediate position between the initial forms, which is in agreement with the results of isoenzyme analyses (analysis of multiple forms of amylase and esterase) and PCR analysis (presence of the genes bar, gus, and SpmTPase). Inheritance of the plastome occurs from oilseed rape, while that of the mitochondrion, from O. violaceus, which is proved by means of PCR-RFLP analysis. The plant hybrids may be utilized for further selection research with oilseed rape following determination of the edible quality of its oil as well as in experiments with chloroplast transformation, a topic which is of critical importance for oilseed rape. 相似文献

The FDA-approved anti-cancer compound paclitaxel is currently produced commercially by Taxus plant cell suspension cultures. One major limitation to the use of plant cell culture as a production platform is the low and variable product yields. Therefore, methods to increase and stabilize paclitaxel production are necessary to ensure product security, especially as the demand for paclitaxel continues to rise. Although a stable transformation method for Taxus suspension cultures has been developed, stable transformant yields are low (around 1% of experiments) and the method does not translate to the Taxus cuspidata Siebold and Zucc. and Taxus canadensis Marshall cell lines utilized in this study. Therefore, a new method for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of Taxus callus and suspension cultures was developed through identification of the optimal Agrobacterium strain, inclusion of an anti-necrotic cocktail (silver nitrate, cysteine, and ascorbic acid) and increased recovery time for cells after cocultivation, the time following infection with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Application of the increased recovery time to transformation of T. cuspidata line PO93XC resulted in 200 calluses staining positive for GUS. Additionally, two transgenic lines have been maintained with stable transgene expression for over 5 yr. This method represents an improvement over existing transformation methods for Taxus cultures and can be applied for future metabolic engineering efforts. 相似文献
