| Zusammenfassung: | A method of creating a transformed maize plant is disclosed. One embodiment of this method includes the steps of isolating a maize embryo, culturing that embryo to produce callus cells, and bombarding the callus cells with particles coated with copies of a nucleic acid construct. In another embodiment of the invention, the cultured embryo produces a mixture of embryogenic and organogenic callus. The nucleic acid-coated particles bombard this mixture, and a transformed plant is produced. |
