Maize Type II callus tissue was used as the plant material for genetic transformation via electroporation. Plasmid DNA containing a selectable marker gene (either neomycin phosphotransferase (npt-II) or phosphinothricin acetyl transferase (bar)), and a screenable marker gene (gus A) was incubated wi
In order to evaluate the impact of ethylene in maize tissue culture, silver nitrate has been used as an inhibitor of ethylene action. Type II callus initiation rate was improved when immature embryos were cultured on a modified Murashige & Skoog medium containing various concentrations of silver nit
