A modified protocol for theAgrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of tobacco (Nicotina tabacum L.) leaf disks was developed for greater recovery of transgenic plants. Modifications include transformation ofAgrobacterium by a freeze-thaw procedure, initial cocultivation of leaf disks andAgrobacterium under vacuum, subsequent growth with nurse cells for one week, rooting of shoots in medium lacking carbenicillin, longer,
growth in rooting medium, and a shortened “hardening” step. By this procedure, an average of 1.3 kanamycin-resistant calli
were obtained per leaf disk, and 38% of, the callus cultures used were regenerated to produce 133 independently transformed
tobacco plants. 相似文献

Summary A chimeric gene under the control of the hsp70 promoter of Drosophila is heat regulated in roots, stems and leaves, but not in pollen of transgenic tobacco plants. For these and other parameters, it behaves similarly to plant heat-shock genes. 相似文献

Previously, assay conditions for the GUS enzyme have required lethal and/or destructive conditions which do not allow for
the continued observation of living plants. The replacement of sodium phosphate buffer with potassium phosphate buffer and
the removal of potassium ferrocyanide and EDTA resulted in an assay for the GUS enzyme that is both nondestructive and nonlethal
to tobacco plants and therefore allows observations of tobacco roots through time. 相似文献

Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of plants is known to result in transgenic plants with a variable number of integrated T-DNA copies [1, 2, 3, 7]. Our aim was to obtain transgenic tobacco plants containing one integrated T-DNA copy per genome. Therefore, a quick method was developed to estimate the T-DNA copy number of young transgenic plantlets within 10 weeks after transformation. Inverse polymerase chain reaction (IPCR) was used to amplify junction fragments, i.e. plant genomic DNA sequences flanking the known T-DNA sequences [5]. 相似文献

T-DNA structure in transgenic tobacco plants with multiple independent integration sites 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary Transgenic tobacco plants were produced by inoculation of leaf disks withAgrobacterium tumefaciens harboring a disarmed binary vector containing soybean leghemoglobin Lbc3 and glycinin G2 genes. Physical and genetic characterization
of these plants indicated that one to six copies of DNA from the vector were transferred and maintained in the plant genome.
Approximately 30% of the copies transferred were found to be incomplete or rearranged and in some cases joined as inverted
repeats. The transferred DNA was found at multiple genetic loci in five of the six cases examined. In one plant, kanamycin-resistance
traits were at four independent chromosomal positions, although two were genetically linked at about 3 centimorgans. Thus,Agrobacterium-mediated DNA transfer to plants has some characteristics in common with “natural” systems in animals, such as retroviral
or P-element derived systems, some characteristics in common with “artificial” systems, such as microinjection, electroporation,
or calcium phosphate coprecipitation techniques, and some novel characteristics. 相似文献

Two inbred cultivars of Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco), Samsun and Xanthi, were transformed with the plasmid pBI 121 using Bin 19 in Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The plasmid carries the nptII gene conferring kanamycin resistance and the uidA gene encoding -glucuronidase (GUS). Progeny carrying the genes in the homozygous condition were identified and selfed over several generations. One line homozygous for the introduced genes and one untransformed control from each cultivar were then selected and crossed reciprocally to give four families per cultivar. Seeds from each family were grown in a replicated field trial and all plants scored for a range of morphological and agronomic characters. In addition, leaf samples were taken and GUS activity measured. In the Samsun material, which contained one copy of the introduced gene at a single locus and showed high levels of GUS expression, the transformed homozygote showed twice the level of GUS activity as the hemizygotes, wheareas in the Xanthi line, which had a lower level of GUS, the hemizygotes showed the same level of GUS activity as the transformed homozygote. The agronomic data showed differences between the families, but the source of such differences could not be ascribed unambiguously. The results are discussed in the light of related information on gene expression and field performance from other transgenic material. 相似文献

Transgenic tobacco plants and progeny carrying coding sequences for neomycin phosphotransferase II (NPTII) and beta-glucuronidase (GUS) were recovered following microprojectile bombardment of tobacco leaves. Transgenic plants were regenerated from bombarded leaf pieces of tobacco cvs. Xanthi and Ky 17 which were cultured in the presence of 100 or 200 g/ml kanamycin for six to eight weeks. Among 160 putative transgenic plants from at least 16 independent transformation events 76% expressed NPTII, and 50% expressed GUS. Southern analysis of plants expressing either one or both of the enzymes indicated DNA in high molecular weight DNA in 8 of 9 independent transformants analyzed. Two independent transformants and their progeny were analyzed in detail. Analysis of progeny for quantitative enzyme levels of NPTII and GUS, and Southern analysis of parents and progeny clearly demonstrated that the genes were transmitted to progeny. One transformant demonstrated Mendelian ratios for seed germination on kanamycin-containing medium while the other transformant had non-Mendelian ratios. DNA analysis of progeny indicate complex integration of the plasmid DNA, and suggest that rearrangements of this DNA has occurred. These results are consistent with other methods of direct DNA uptake into cells, and verify that the microprojectile bombardment method is capable of DNA delivery into intact plant cells which can give rise to transgenic plants and progeny. 相似文献

To develop a new system for inducible male sterility without any modification of the floral architecture in tobacco plants, a mutated ethylene receptor gene Cm-ERS1/H70A was fused either to the tobacco Nin88 promoter known to function mainly in the tapetum and microspore or to the CaMV 35S promoter known to be a constitutive promoter. The fusion genes pNin88::Cm-ERS1/H70A and p35S::Cm-ERS1/H70A were introduced in tobacco plants, which generated two independent transformants. Transformants with 35S::Cm-ERS1/H70A produced less normal pollen and had modified floral architecture while those with Nin88::Cm-ERS1/H70A produced less normal pollen without modification of floral architecture. Histological observations of anthers at stage 2 showed that tapetum degeneration in NH70A #8 and H70A #2 transformants occurred later than in wild types, strongly indicating that the expression of the mutated gene was involved in this delay. These results suggest that the tapetum-specific expression of a mutated ethylene receptor gene is a potential strategy for inducing male sterility in transgenic plants. 相似文献

ABamHI family of highly repeated DNA sequences of theNicotiana tabacum nuclear genome, denoted as a HRS60-family, was recently isolated. It comprises about 2% of the tobacco nuclear genome. Monomeric
units are 182–184 bp long. Members of the HRS60-family isolated till now are closely related. DNA-DNA hybridization experiments
with DNA of the two tobacco progenitors,N. tomentosiformis andN. sylvestris, revealed that the HRS60-family was present in many copies inN. sylvestris, the amount being about 1.7 times that inN. tabacum. InN. tomentosiformis as well as in some other species of the genusNicotiana, the HRS60-family is present in a small amount. Sequences related to the HRS60-family were revealed using DNA-DNA hybridization
at low stringency. With respect to quantity, the HRS60-family could be considered as a species-specific DNA repeat which may
be a useful genetic marker in genetic manipulations withN. tabacum. 相似文献

The isopentenyl transferase gene (ipt) fromAgrobacterium tumefaciens was isolated and introduced, via a disarmed binary vector, into tobacco using theAgrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated gene transfer system. The expression of theipt gene was monitored by RNA hybridization, western blotting and cytokinin analysis. The addition of auxin to the media rapidly reduced the level of cytokinins in the transgenic tissues and this was associated with a reduction in IPT mRNA and protein levels. It is concluded that the hormone auxin can regulate expression of a gene involved in biosynthesis of the second hormone cytokinin. Although exogenous benzyladenine did not directly affectipt gene expression, it did antagonize the effect of auxin on levels of cytokinins and IPT mRNA and protein. 相似文献

A gene encoding staphylokinase from Staphylococcus aureus was cloned into the plant transformation binary vector pCAMBIA1303. The presence of a CaMV::sak-gusA-mgfp gene in Agrobacterium was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction PCR. Tobacco seedlings were used as explants for Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation with the pCAMBIA1303sak vector carrying the fusion gene construct CaMV::sak-gusA-mgfp and the expression of the fusion gene was identified in Nicotiana tabacum plants by β-glucuronidas assay.

Summary Two lines of transgenic Nicotiana tabacum transformed to kanamycin resistance by means of a binary Agrobacterium vector containing a nos-npt gene were investigated over three generations. Southern hybridization and crossing analyses revealed that a single copy of T-DNA had integrated in each line and that the kanamycin resistance was regularly transmitted to the progeny as a monogenic dominant trait. Homozygous transgenic plants were fully fertile, morphologically normal and did not significantly differ from wild-type plants in the quantitative characters examined (plant height, flowering time). The two lines showed very low, but significantly different levels of meiotic instability: kanamycin-sensitive plants occurred among backcross progeny from homozygous transgenic plants with frequencies of 6/45,000 and 25/45,000, respectively. The sensitive plants arose independently of each other and thus resulted from meiotic rather than mitotic events. These findings demonstrate for the first time that integrated foreign genes can be transmitted to progeny with the high degree of meiotic stability required for commercial varieties of crop plants. They emphasize the importance of non-homologous integration and of avoiding co-integration of inactive gene copies for achieving meiotically stable transformants. 相似文献

Summary The pat gene, coding for phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT) from Streptomyces viridochromogenes, was cloned behind the par promoter of the hemoglobin gene from Parasponia andersonii, Introduction into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) resulted in predominantly root specific PAT expression. Application of 5 l/ha BASTA® (herbicidal component: phosphinothricin) did not effect growth morphology and vigor of the plants. After application of 20 l/ha BASTA® the plants showed herbicide damage. Nevertheless, they all recovered by forming new undamaged leaves and resumed full growth despite virtually non-detectable expression of the PAT enzyme in the leaves.Abbreviations BAP

Transgenic Nicotiana tabacum plants expressing a single-chain variable region antibody fragment derived from a broad-spectrum monoclonal antibody 3-17 showed suppression of virus infection following challenge by two distinct potyviruses: potato virus Y strain D, and clover yellow vein virus strain 300. Monoclonal antibody 3-17, which was raised against the potyvirus Johnsongrass mosaic virus, was shown to react strongly with 14 potyvirus species. Two different single-chain antibody constructs were used to produce chimeric genes encoding recombinant proteins designed to be targeted either to the apoplasm or to the cytoplasm. Transgenic plant lines showed reduced numbers of local lesions and systemic symptoms when challenged with potato virus Y, strain D and reduced local lesions following challenge with clover yellow vein virus, strain 300. The level of suppression conferred by the transgene when plants were challenged under laboratory conditions with high concentrations of virus, together with the ability of the transgene to partially protect plants against distinct viruses suggest that one single-chain gene construct might be used to protect plants from distinct potyviruses. 相似文献

Use of a simple semiquantitative method for appraisal of green fluorescent protein gene expression in transgenic tobacco plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have applied a simple method for evaluation of gfp gene expression in plants using a CCD camera and computerized processing of images. Transgenic tobacco plants were obtained by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transfer of plasmid T-DNA bearing a m-gfp5-ER sequence governed by the 35S promoter together with the nptII selectable marker gene. Presence of the gfp gene in plants was confirmed by a polymerase chain reaction method. Mean brightness values measured using image analysis software showed differences between transgenic and control plants and suggest the possibility of rapid selection of transgenic individuals among regenerants and their progenies. 相似文献

Agroinfiltration is employed as a fast way to directly create marker-free transgenic tobacco plants. As an example for the
efficiency of the method, Agrobacterium cells harboring a marker-free vector coding for β-glucuronidase (GUS) were infiltrated into the leaf discs of Nicotiana tabacum, which were then used as explants for marker-free plant regeneration by tissue culture. Through GUS staining, a large number
of small calli were shown to be stably transformed on the treated leaf discs at 17 days after agroinfiltration. Most importantly,
after continuous culture of the leaf discs until shoot regeneration, about 15% of the regenerants were proven to be transformants
by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. 相似文献

Plant lipoxygenases (LOXs) are key enzymes involved in the generation of fatty acid derivatives, called oxylipins. In tobacco, LOX gene expression and activity are very low in healthy tissues and are highly enhanced in response to infection by Phytophthora parasitica nicotianae and to elicitor treatment. We previously showed, using antisense-LOX1 plants, that expression of the tobacco LOX1 gene is required for the race-cultivar specific resistance of tobacco to Phytophthora parasitica nicotianae. In order to investigate the effect of over-expressing a LOX gene on plant resistance, we transformed tobacco plants with the LOX1 coding sequence fused to the CaMV 35S promoter. Four transgenic lines with enhanced levels of LOX protein and specific activity over control plants were selected for further analysis. These plants were macroscopically indistinguishable from WT plants. Upon stem inoculation, the sense-LOX1 plants displayed a significantly decreased susceptibility to virulent races of Phytophthora parasitica nicotianae, stem lesions being 2- to 3-fold shorter in the transgenic lines than in WT plants. Using a root inoculation assay, the survival rate of sense-LOX1 seedlings was increased about 4-fold compared to their WT counterparts, with 60 to 80% of transgenic plants vs 15 to 20% of WT controls remaining healthy following inoculation with Phytophthora parasitica nicotianae. This is the first demonstration that the over-expression of a LOX gene is sufficient to reduce the susceptibility of a host plant to an oomycete pathogen. 相似文献

The range of sap-sucking insect pests to which GNA, (the mannose specific lectin from snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis) has been shown to be insecticidal in artificial diets has been extended to include the peach potato aphid (Myzus persicae). A gene construct for constitutive expression of GNA from the CaMV35S gene promoter has been introduced into tobacco plants. A transgenic tobacco line which expresses high levels of GNA has been shown to have enhanced resistance toM. persicae in leaf disc and whole plant bioassays,demonstrating the potential for extending transgenic plant technology to the control of sap-sucking insect pests. 相似文献
