In vitro Crown Galls Induced by Agrobacterium tumefaciens Strain A281 (pTiBo542) in Trigonella foenum-graecum

Transformation of fenugreek (Trigonella foenumgraecum) was carried out with A281 oncogenic strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens using root, cotyledon and hypocotyl explants excised from 1-week-old seedlings, which showed that the plant was highly susceptible to transformation. Tumors (calli) were sel...

Zusammenfassung:Transformation of fenugreek (Trigonella foenumgraecum) was carried out with A281 oncogenic strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens using root, cotyledon and hypocotyl explants excised from 1-week-old seedlings, which showed that the plant was highly susceptible to transformation. Tumors (calli) were selected on 50 mg dm super(-3) kanamycin. They were analyzed for beta -glucuronidase (GUS) expression. Presence of uidA (gus) gene, was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification.
