Abstract: | We have investigated factors influencing polyethylene glycol mediated DNA uptake and ß-glucuronidase expression in pea (Pisum sativum L.) protoplasts. It was found that for optimal \-glucuronidase expression the molecular weight and concentration of polyethylene glycol should be 4000 and 20%, respectively. The amount of plasmid DNA should be 25 g per 5×105 protoplasts in each treatment, and the concentration of Mg2+ in the transformation buffer should be 15 mM. The optimized protocol was applicable to all four pea cultivars tested.Abbreviations FDA
