Aim. The production of alfalfa and peanut cultivars with new properties is necessary. The purpose of this work was to develop Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol and to construct transgenic alfalfa and peanut plants resistant to herbicide Pursuit Methods. Genetic transformation was carried out using cocultivation of peanut and alfalfa explants with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV3101 carrying genetic construct pCB004 containing mutant ahas/als gene and nptII gene. Selection was held on the solidified callus inducing medium with 50 mkg/l Pursuit. The selected callus clones were put on the regeneration medium with the same selective agents. Obtained regeneration lines were analysed using PCR-analysis. Results. 17 peanut and 14 alfalfa regeneration lines had positive signals after PCR analysis with DNA fragments of required molecular size for ahas/als and nptII genes. Conclusions. Transgenic alfalfa and peanut plants resistant to the herbicide Pursuit were obtained.Keywords: alfalfa, peanut, ahas/als gene, transformation.

An efficient protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of tomato cultivars Sandra and Rocky was conducted to examine the possibility of producing transgenic tomato plants cultivars harbouring the nptII gene, conferring kanamycin resistance. To achieve this aim, tomato cotyledon explants were transformed using EHA105 Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain harboring the binary vectors pBI121 which contains Gus gene, and neomycin phosphotransferase II (nptII) as selectable marker gene under the control of a CaMV35S promoter and nopaline synthase (nos) Terminator. Transformant detection was carried out in three distinct ways. First antibiotic selection, Kanamycin at a concentration of100 mgl-1 found to be efficient for this purpose. Second histochemical GUS assay revealed the presence of blue colored zones in a number of shoots and leaves for both in vitro and the greenhouse-grown transgenic plants. Third PCR analysis indicated positive result by showing the fragment for nptII gene in tested transformants, while was absent in non-transgenic control (wild type). On the other hand, the results showed that Sandra cultivar was more efficient for regeneration and subsequently transformation frequency than Rocky cultivar, which record 26.66% of transformation frequency compared with 11.57% in Rocky cultivar.

Prior to Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation in vitro regeneration protocol was established for three potato cultivars (Alfa, Cambray Rosa Morelos and Atlantic) grown in Mexico using leaf, node and internodal explants. Regeneration protocol was developed with or without the intervention of callus. Two potato cultivars, namely, Cambray Rosa Morelos and Alpha were transformed using Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 harboring binary plasmid pBI121 containing the GUS and nptII genes. GUS histochemical assay and PCR analysis were conducted on rooted shoots grown in media without hormones but supplemented with antibiotics. Transformed shoots tested positive through GUS histochemical assay and integration of nptII gene was confirmed by PCR analysis DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ptcb.v22i2.14193 Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 22(2): 93-105, 2012 (December)

Onion Epidermal Cells

AbstractA modified Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol has been successfully used for transient expression of the intrinsically fluorescent proteins and their fusion proteins in onion epidermis. The mean of the transformed cells rate per peel is about 10.5±0.9%, while that of the particle bombardment method is at the range 2.0±0.4%. To compare with the prevailing method of micro-projectile bombardment, the modified Agrobacterium-mediated transformation may provide with higher efficiency and even more simplified manipulability on a lower budget.

Eleven independent transgenic canola (Brassica napus ssp. oleifera L. cv. Westar and Regent) lines were evaluated in the field. The plants carried a neomycin phosphotransferase (NPTII) gene for kanamycin resistance that was introduced via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. NPTII enzyme assays, Southern blot hybridizations and progeny analysis, confirmed the stable, heritable integration and expression of the introduced NPTII gene. A number of agronomic characteristics evaluated under field conditions, including maturity, yield, and oil and protein content, were all statistically comparable between the transformed and nontransformed plants. These results indicate that canola can be genetically engineered successfully, and that the Agrobacterium-based transformation system employed does not induce any adverse effects on the intrinsic agronomic and qualitative traits critical to the agricultural industry.Key words: transgenic field trial, canola, Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, vectors.

AbstractQuantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) has been used extensively to analyze gene expression and decipher gene function. To obtain the optimal and stable normalization factors for qRT-PCR, selection and validation of reference genes should be conducted in diverse conditions. In insects, more and more studies confirmed the necessity and importance of reference gene selection. In this study, eight traditionally used reference genes in Galeruca daurica (Joannis) were assessed, using qRT-PCR, for suitability as normalization genes under different experimental conditions using four statistical programs: geNorm, Normfinder, BestKeeper and the comparative ΔCt method. The genes were ranked from the most stable to the least stable using RefFinder. The optimal suite of recommended reference genes was as follows: succinate dehydrogenase (SDHA) and tubulin-alpha (TUB-α) for temperature-treated larvae; ribosomal protein L32, SDHA and glutathione S-transferase were best for all developmental stages; ACT and TUB-α for male and female adults; SDHA and TUB-α were relatively stable and expressed in different tissues, both diapause and non-diapause adults. Reference gene evaluation was validated using expression of two target genes: the P450 CYP6 gene and the heat shock protein gene Hsp70. These results confirm the importance of custom reference gene selection when studies are conducted under diverse experimental conditions. A standardized qRT-PCR analysis procedure for gene functional studies is provided that could be useful in studies on other insect species.
