| Abstract: | Eleven independent GUS-positive hairy roots were induced by co-cultivation of leaf explants of Antirrhinum majus L. with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV2260 containing the rol type MAT vector pNPI702. The MAT vector pNPI702 possesses a GUS gene under the 35 S promoter and a removal element in which the 7.6-kb DNA fragments containing the rolA, B, C and D genes and recombinase gene with a 35 S promoter are located between two directly oriented recombination site sequences. A total of 326 adventitious shoots regenerated from 11 independent hairy root lines cultured on 1/2MS medium without plant growth regulators at 25 °C under a 16/8 h (day/night) photoperiod after 8 weeks of stock-culture of hairy roots and 4 weeks of culture of the green segments of hairy roots. Regenerated plants showed either a normal or dwarf morphology. GUS activity was observed in the hairy roots and regenerated shoots. The presence of the GUS gene in the regenerated, morphologically normal plants was confirmed by PCR analysis.
