โœฆ Synopsis


Transgenic muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) plants were produced efficiently by inoculating cotyledon explants with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 bearing a Ti plasmid with the NPT II gene for kanaymcin resistance. After co-cultivation for three days, expiants were transferred to melon regeneration medium with kanamycin to select for transformed tissue. Shoot regeneration occurred within 3-5 weeks; excised shoots were rooted on medium containing kanamycin before transferring to soil. Morphologically normal plants were produced in three months. Southern blot analysis confirmed that ca. 85% of the regenerated plants contained the NPT gene. Dot blot analysis and leaf callus assay of progeny of transgenic plants verified transmission of the introduced gene(s) to the next generation. Factors affecting transformation efficiency are discussed.

Regeneration of pepino (Solanum muricatum Ait.) shoots was achieved both by organogenesis and by embryogenesis. Shoots derived via organogenesis were easily rooted and most regenerated plants appeared phenotypically normal. Transgenic plants were obtained using the binary vector pKIWI110 in the avir

Shoot cultures of Rauvolfia serpentina infected with Agrobacterium rhizogenes 15834 produced tumourous tissue at the site of injection, which eventually developed callus with hairy roots. Sporadic shoot formation occurred from the hairy roots. The shoots were grown to maturity in the green house. Th
