    Notes: Abstract Protoplasts are currently used to study the expression of genes following transformation. Expression is followed on a population of protoplasts after total protein extraction by conventional western blotting or measure of the enzymatic activity of the transgenic protein. We describe here a new method, called protoplast printing, allowing easy detection of the fraction of cells expressing a certain protein within a population of protoplasts. It consists of immobilization of the protoplast proteins on a nitrocellulose filter, so as to retain the outlines of the cell, followed by immunological detection of the protein of interest. The only special requirement is an antibody specific for the protein. We have studied the expression of the BNYVV coat protein after electroporation of Chenopodium quinoa protoplasts with viral RNAs, and the expression of the NPT II gene in protoplasts isolated from transgenic tobacco plants as well as after direct transfer of plasmid DNA into tobacco protoplasts. In both cases — infection with viral RNAs and transformation with plasmid DNA — expressing and non-expressing cells can be distinguished as early as 12h after transfer of the transgenes.

    Notes: Summary Suitable sunflower tissues and cells were transformed either by direct gene transfer into protoplasts, particle bombardment, or Agrobacterium co-culture. While all techniques allowed efficient short-term or transient expression of the introduced gene(s) in the respective tissues, stable transformation was only observed after transformation with Agrobacterium. The latter technique was suitable for the production of transgenic callus from seedling cotyledons and occasional shoots with chimaeric expression of the transgene. Detailed analysis of the interaction of Agrobacterium with this explant showed that infection efficiency was critically dependent on the co-culture conditions, and that the preferentially-transformed cells were not the ones competent for regeneration.
