Stable genetic transformation represents the gold standard approach to the detailed elucidation of plant gene functions. This is particularly relevant in barley, an important experimental model widely employed in applied molecular, genetic and cell biological research, and biotechnology. Presented are details of the establishment of a protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer to immature embryos, which enables the highly efficient generation of transgenic barley. Advancements were achieved through comparative experiments on the influence of various explant treatments and co-cultivation conditions. The analysis of representative numbers of transgenic lines revealed that the obtained T-DNA copy numbers are typically low, the generative transmission of the recombinant DNA is in accordance with the Mendelian rules and the vast majority of the primary transgenics produce progeny that expresses the respective transgene product. Moreover, the newly established protocol turned out to be useful to transform not only the highly amenable cultivar (cv.) ‘Golden Promise’ but also other spring and winter barley genotypes, albeit with substantially lower efficiency. As a major result of this study, a very useful tool is now available for future functional gene analyses as well as genetic engineering approaches. With the aim to modify the expression of barley genes putatively involved in plant–fungus interactions, numerous transgenic plants have been generated using diverse expression cassettes. These plants represent an example of how transformation technology may contribute to further our understanding of important biological processes. 相似文献

Transgenic lines of the spring barley variety Golden Promise containing the firefly luciferase gene were produced by particle bombardment of immature embryos. Non-destructive analysis of luciferase gene expression was used to monitor the transformation process. This revealed that transformation efficiency, in terms of the percentage of bombarded immature embryos giving rise to transformed callus lines, was very high, up to 40%. Following the expression of the luciferase gene provided a method for the sensitive, non-destructive, real-time monitoring of gene expression throughout the transformation process. Luciferase expression could also be used to easily identify transgenic plants and to identify homozygous transgenic plants at an early stage. The production of transgenic barley by selecting for luciferase-positive material, without an additional selection system, was possible but technically difficult. 相似文献

Agrobacterium-mediated barley transformation promises many advantages compared to alternative gene transfer methods, but has so far been established in only a few laboratories. We describe a protocol that facilitates rapid establishment and optimisation of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation for barley by instant monitoring of the transformation success. The synthetic green fluorescent protein (sgfpS65T) reporter gene was introduced in combination with thehpt selectable marker gene into immature embryos of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) by cocultivation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain AGLO harboring binary vector pYF133. Using green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a non-destructive visual marker allowed us to identify single-cell recipients of T-DNA at an early stage, track their fate and evaluate factors that affect T-DNA delivery. GFP screening was combined with a low level hygromycin selection. Consequently, transgenic plantlets ready to transfer to soil were obtained within 50 days of explant culture. Southern blot- and progeny segregation analyses revealed a single copy T-DNA insert in more than half of the transgenic barley plants. T-DNA/barley genomic DNA junctions were amplified and sequenced. The right T-DNA ends were highly conserved and clustered around the first 4 nucleotides of the right 25 bp border repeat, while the left T-DNA ends were more variable, located either in the left 25 bp border repeat or within 13 bp from the left repeat. T-DNAs were transferred from Agrobacterium to barley with exclusion of vector sequence suggesting a similar molecular T-DNA transfer mechanism as in dicotyledonous plants. 相似文献

A protocol is described that supports the production of transgenic sugarcane plants ready for transfer to soil within 3 mo
from culture initiation. Biolistic gene transfer into cross-sections of immature leaf whorl explants followed by direct somatic
embryogenesis resulted in the stable genetic transformation of the commercially important sugarcane cultivar CP 88-1762. Accelerating
the production of transgenic sugarcane plants not only saves time and effort but will likely also minimize somaclonal variation.
Southern blot analysis revealed simple transgene integration patterns ranging from one to five hybridization products. NPTII-ELISA
confirmed that most of the transgenic plants expressed the transgene stably in vegetative progeny. Using a minimal, linear
expression cassette (MC) without vector backbone sequences for the biolistic gene transfer and reducing the amount of MC to
10 ng per shot may have led to simple transgene integration and stable transgene expression. Therefore, this protocol has
great potential for the generation of commercial transgenic sugarcane events. 相似文献

Barley, an important member of the cereals, has been successfully transformed through various methods such as particle bombardment,
Agrobacterium tumefaciens, DNA uptake, and electroporation. Initially, the transformation in barley concentrated on developing protocols using marker
genes such as gus, bar, and hpt. Immature embryos and callus derived from immature embryos were targeted for transformation. Subsequently, genes of agronomic
and malting importance have been deployed in barley. Particle bombardment appears to be the preferred choice for barley transformation
in the majority of the reports, although Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is being used more often. The current review focuses on the challenges encountered in barley transformation
such as somaclonal variation, development of transformation systems for commercial cultivars, gene expression, stability and
inheritance, and gene flow. Newer markers such as the green fluorescent protein (gfp), firefly luciferase, and phosphomannose isomerase were found to be useful in the selection of transgenic plants. Tissue-specific
promoters such as those for B1-hordein and D-hordein genes, and spike-specific promoters, are increasingly used to drive gene
expression. The review also describes recent research on gene-tagging through transformation, insertion of disease resistance,
and abiotic stress resistance genes, transformation with genes for improved malting quality, nutrient content, feed quality,
and the production of feed enzymes and pharmaceutical compounds. 相似文献

Molecular and cellular evidence of chimaeric tissues in primary transgenics and elimination of chimaerism through improved selection protocols 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Transgenic plants of strawberry cultivar Totem were developed by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation using a plasmid vector containing gus and nptII genes. Parallel experiments were carried out with and without repeated subculturing (iterative cultures) for generation of transgenic shoots on selection medium. The selection levels in the non-iterative pathway were kept constant, while in the iterative protocol, stepwise increase of selection pressure was applied at different stages of tissue growth. Rooted transgenic plants obtained via both protocols were outplanted in soil. Random leaf samples of greenhouse-grown transgenics were analysed for the presence of gus gene sequences by Southern hybridization as well as gus expression on leaf and petiole tissues by X-Gluc histological assay. Random leaf samples analysed from individual transgenic events developed under iterative culture were positive for the gus insert as verified by Southern analysis confirming the presence of transgenes and lack of chimaeras. Leaf samples of the transgenic events from the non-iterative protocol were either positive or negative on Southern analysis indicating the chimaeric nature of the transgenic plants. The absence of gus sequences in the transgenic plants grown under the non-iterative protocol reinforced the necessity of iterative cultures along with stepwise increase in selection levels for generating non-chimaeric transgenics in strawberry. The gus expression was highly variable, irrespective of the iterative or non-iterative protocol used for transformation. We conclude that strawberry is highly prone to develop chimaeric transgenics if derived from primary regenerants and that the iterative culture technique effectively converts chimaeras to pure line transgenic plants 相似文献

Coping with different kinds of biotic and abiotic stresses is the foundation of sustainable agriculture. Although conventional breeding and marker-assisted selection are being employed in mulberry (Morus indica L.) to develop better varieties, nonetheless the longer time periods required for these approaches necessitates the use of precise biotechnological approaches for sustainable agriculture. In an attempt to improve stress tolerance of mulberry, an important plant of the sericulture industry, an encoding late embryogenesis abundant gene from barley (HVA1) was introduced into mulberry plants by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Transgenic mulberry with barley Hva1 under a constitutive promoter actin1 was shown to enhance drought and salinity tolerance. Here, we report that overexpression of barley Hva1 also confers cold tolerance in transgenic mulberry. Further, barley Hva1 gene under control of a stress-inducible promoter rd29A can effectively negate growth retardation under non-stress conditions and confer stress tolerance in transgenic mulberry. Transgenic lines display normal morphology to enhanced growth and an increased tolerance against drought, salt and cold conditions as measured by free proline, membrane stability index and PSII activity. Protein accumulation was detected under stress conditions confirming inductive expression of HVA1 in transgenics. Investigations to assess stress tolerance of these plants under field conditions revealed an overall better performance than the non-transgenic plants. Enhanced expression of stress responsive genes such as Mi dnaJ and Mi 2-cysperoxidin suggests that Hva1 can regulate downstream genes associated with providing abiotic stress tolerance. The investigation of transgenic lines presented here demonstrates the acquisition of tolerance against drought, salt and cold stress in plants overexpressing barley Hva1, indicating that Arabidopsis rd29A promoter can function in mulberry. 相似文献

Expression of a Late Embryogenesis Abundant Protein Gene,HVA1, from Barley Confers Tolerance to Water Deficit and Salt Stress in Transgenic Rice 总被引:41,自引:0,他引:41
A late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) protein gene, HVA1, from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) was introduced into rice suspension cells using the Biolistic-mediated transformation method, and a large number of independent transgenic rice (Oryza sativa L.) plants were generated. Expression of the barley HVA1 gene regulated by the rice actin 1 gene promoter led to high-level, constitutive accumulation of the HVA1 protein in both leaves and roots of transgenic rice plants. Second-generation transgenic rice plants showed significantly increased tolerance to water deficit and salinity. Transgenic rice plants maintained higher growth rates than nontransformed control plants under stress conditions. The increased tolerance was also reflected by delayed development of damage symptoms caused by stress and by improved recovery upon the removal of stress conditions. We also found that the extent of increased stress tolerance correlated with the level of the HVA1 protein accumulated in the transgenic rice plants. Using a transgenic approach, this study provides direct evidence supporting the hypothesis that LEA proteins play an important role in the protection of plants under water-or salt-stress conditions. Thus, LEA genes hold considerable potential for use as molecular tools for genetic crop improvement toward stress tolerance. 相似文献

Modern sugarcane cultivars have complex genetic characteristics and low fertility that render their genetic improvement through traditional breeding difficult. Genetic engineering methodology to introduce foreign genes provides new opportunities for the genetic improvement of sugarcane cultivars. One of prerequisites for successful insertion of a gene cassette into the plant genome is the availability of an efficient transformation protocol. An improved protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of sugarcane is described. Between 85 and 100% of calli transformed using this procedure produced new calli, and 100% of them were positive for the inserted gene. The whole procedure permitted the production of transgenic calli in a short time (1.5 mo). The transformed calli can be cultured further for the production of the inserted gene-encoded enzyme by using cell culture, or they can be regenerated into transgenic plants. This protocol may be implemented also for the generation of transgenic plants from other species. 相似文献

Advances in cereal protoplast research 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Beginning in 1986, plants have been regenerated from protoplasts of all of the important cereal species, including wheat, rice, maize, and barley, and grasses such as sugarcane. In addition, somatic hybrids/cybrids as well as transgenic plants with introduced useful agronomic traits have been obtained in several instances. This rapid and impressive progress in the genetic manipulation of cereals has been made possible by two critical technical advances during the past decade: the establishment of embryogenic suspension cultures as a source of totipotent protoplasts and the direct delivery of DNA into protoplasts for genetic transformation. 相似文献

Summary Transfer of genes from heterologous species provides the means of selectively introducing new traits into crop plants and
expanding the gene pool beyond what has been available to traditional breeding systems. With the recent advances in genetic
engineering of plants, it is now feasible to introduce into crop plants, genes that have previously been inaccessible to the
conventional plant breeder, or which did not exist in the crop of interest. This holds a tremendous potential for the genetic
enhancement of important food crops. However, the availability of efficient transformation methods to introduce foreign DNA
can be a substantial barrier to the application of recombinant DNA methods in some crop plants. Despite significant advances
over the past decades, development of efficient transformation methods can take many years of painstaking research. The major
components for the development of transgenic plants include the development of reliable tissue culture regeneration systems,
preparation of gene constructs and efficient transformation techniques for the introduction of genes into the crop plants,
recovery and multiplication of transgenic plants, molecular and genetic characterization of transgenic plants for stable and
efficient gene expression, transfer of genes to elite cultivars by conventional breeding methods if required, and the evaluation
of transgenic plants for their effectiveness in alleviating the biotic and abiotic stresses without being an environmental
biohazard. Amongst these, protocols for the introduction of genes, including the efficient regeneration of shoots in tissue
cultures, and transformation methods can be major bottlenecks to the application of genetic transformation technology. Some
of the key constraints in transformation procedures and possible solutions for safe development and deployment of transgenic
plants for crop improvement are discussed. 相似文献

The utility of artificial microRNAs (amiRNAs) to induce loss of gene function has been reported for many plant species, but expression efficiency of the different amiRNA constructs in different transgenic plants was less predictable. In this study, expressions of amiRNAs through the gene backbone of Arabidopsis miR168a were examined by both Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression and stable plant genetic transformation. A corresponding trend in expression of amiRNAs by the same amiRNA constructs between the transient and the stable expression systems was observed in the experiments. Plant genetic transformation of the constructs that were highly expressible in amiRNAs in the transient agro-infiltration assays resulted in generation of transgenic lines with high level of amiRNAs. This provides a simple method for rapid and effective selection of amiRNA constructs used for a time-consuming genetic transformation in plants. 相似文献

Establishment of an efficient protocol for regeneration and genetic transformation is required in banana for the incorporation
of useful traits. Therefore an efficient method has been developed for somatic embryogenesis, plant regeneration and transformation
of Cavendish banana cultivar Robusta (AAA). Embryogenic cell suspension culture (ECS) was established using immature male
flowers. Percentage appearance of embryogenic callus and distinct globular embryos was 10.3 and 11.1, respectively. ECS obtained
was cocultivated under different cocultivation conditions with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 harboring pCAMBIA 1301 plant expression vector. Up to 30 transgenic plants/50 mg settled cell volume (SCV)
was obtained with cocultivation in semisolid medium whereas no transgenics could be obtained with parallel experiments carried
out in liquid medium. Histochemical GUS assay in different tissues of putatively transformed plants demonstrated expression
of uidA gene. Among the putatively transformed plants obtained, a set of 4 were confirmed by PCR analysis and stable integration
of the transgene by Southern analysis. GUS specific activity measured by a MUG (4-methylumbelliferyl-β-d-glucuronide) based flourometric assay revealed increase in transient GUS expression in semisolid as well as liquid cocultivation
with centrifugation. This is the first report showing somatic embryogenesis and Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated transformation using embryogenic cell suspension cultures in an important Cavendish banana cultivar Robusta. The
present protocol will make possible agronomic improvement of this important commercially grown cultivar by introduction of
disease resistance characteristics and antisense-mediated delayed fruit ripening strategies. Further, it will also assist
in functional characterization of new gene or promoter elements isolated from this or other cultivars of banana. 相似文献

Rhodes grass (Chloris gayana) is one of the most important warm-season forage grasses. It is cultivated in tropical and subtropical parts of the world and is mostly used for grazing and hay production. We have established a particle-bombardment transformation protocol for rhodes grass using multiple-shoot clumps (MSCs) as the target tissue. A vector pAHC25 containing a herbicide-resistance gene (bar) together with the beta-glucuronidase (GUS) gene was used in transformation experiments. The most efficient recovery of bialaphos-resistant tissue was achieved when the bombarded MSCs were first cultured for 15 d on bialaphos-free medium before being subjected to selection pressure. The resistant tissues regenerated transgenic plants that displayed GUS gene expression. Under optimized conditions, 251 target pieces yielded 46 transgenic plants from 4 independent transgenic lines. 相似文献
