Mechanical Wounding of Yeast-Like Conidium Cells of Tremella fuciformis Makes Them Susceptible to Agrobacterium-Mediated Transformation

Mechanical Wounding of Yeast-Like Conidium Cells of Tremella fuciformis Makes Them Susceptible to Agrobacterium-Mediated Transformation

We developed an efficient protocol that makes possible the practical use of Agrobacterium to transform the yeast-like conidia of Tremella fuciformis. Mechanical wounding of fungal cells prior to co-cultivation with Agrobacterium cells greatly improved transformation efficiency.
