    Notes: Abstract The levels of the major cytokinins, zeatin, zeatin riboside, zeatin riboside-5′-monophosphate and zeatin-7-glucoside were measured in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) crown-gall tissues carrying insertion and deletion mutations in the T-DNA. Measurements were made by combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using selected ion monitoring with 15N- and 2H-labelled internal standards. The results demonstrate that, relative to wild-type tumour tissue, cytokinin levels are considerably elevated in tissues lacking functional T-DNA auxin-biosynthetic genes. From a detailed analysis of the major cytokinin metabolites it is concluded that a reduction in the extent of cytokinin degradation via N6-side-chain cleavage is an important factor leading to increased cytokinin levels in these tissues.

    Notes: Abstract A 3.4-kilobase genomic DNA fragment from Pisum sativum L. containing the LegA gene, which encodes a major legumin storage protein, was transferred to Nicotiana plumbaginifolia using an Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain containing the Bin 19 binary vector system. Northern hybridisation analysis of legA-transformed plants demonstrated that legumin-specific RNA was present in developing seeds but not in developing leaves. Legumin protein was immunologically detected in the mature seeds of legA-transformed plants, and was present as the correct-size protein composed of disulphide-bonded polypeptides. It is concluded that the transferred pea genomic fragment contains all the information necessary for seed-specific expression of the legA gene, and for correct processing of the primary transcript and the precursor legumin protein.

    Notes: Abstract We have adapted the “agroinfection” procedure of Grimsley and co-workers [4,5] to develop a simple, efficient, reproducible infectivity assay for the insect-transmitted, split-genome geminivirus, tomato golden mosaic virus (TGMV). Agrobacterium T-DNA vectors provide efficient delivery of both components of TGMV when used in mixed inoculation of wild-type host plants. A greater increase in infection efficiency can be obtained by Agrobacterium delivery of the TGMV A component to “permissive” transgenic plants. These “permissive” plants contain multiple tandem copies of the B component integrated into the host genome. An inoculum containing as few as 2000 Agrobacterium cells can produce 100% infection under these conditions. Further, our results show that there is a marked effect of the configuration of the TGMV A components within the T-DNA vector on time of symptom development. We have also found that transgenic plants carrying tandem copies of the A component do not complement the B component. Possible mechanisms to explain these results and the potential use of this system to further study the functions of the geminivirus components in infection are discussed.

    Enhanced nodule initiation on alfalfa by wild-typeRhizobium meliloti co-inoculated withnod gene mutants and other bacteria (1988)

    Notes: Abstract Nodule formation on alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) roots was determined at different inoculum dosages for wild-typeRhizobium meliloti strain RCR2011 and for various mutant derivatives with altered nodulation behavior. The number of nodules formed on the whole length of the primary roots was essentially constant regardless of initial inoculum dosage or subsequent bacterial multiplication, indicative of homeostatic regulation of total nodule number. In contrast, the number of nodules formed in just the initially susceptible region of these roots was sigmoidally dependent on the number of wild-type bacteria added, increasing rapidly at dosages above 5·103 bacteria/plant. This behavior indicates the possible existence of a threshold barrier to nodule initiation in the host which the bacteria must overcome. When low dosages of the parent (103 cells/plant) were co-inoculated with 106 cells/plant of mutants lacking functionalnodA, nodC, nodE, nodF ornodH genes, nodule initiation was increased 10- to 30-fold. Analysis of nodule occupancy indicated that these mutants were able to help the parent (wild-type) strain initiate nodules without themselves occupying the nodules. Co-inoculation withR. trifolii orAgrobacterium tumefaciens cured of its Ti plasmid also markedly stimulated nodule initiation by theR. meliloti parent strain. Introduction of a segment of the symbiotic megaplasmid fromR. meliloti intoA. tumefaciens abolished this stimulation.Bradyrhizobium japonicum and a chromosomal Tn5 nod- mutant ofR. meliloti did not significantly stimulate nodule initiation when co-inoculated with wild-typeR. meliloti. These results indicate that certainnod gene mutants and members of theRhizobiaceae may produce extracellular “signals” that supplement the ability of wild-typeR. meliloti cells to induce crucial responses in the host.

    Notes: Summary Leaves of the in vitro grown potato cultivars ‘Bintje’, ‘Berolina’, ‘Desiree’, and ‘Russet Burbank’ were wounded and co-cultivated with Agrobacterium strains having chimeric bar and nptII genes on a disarmed T-DNA. Each leaf from these cultivars formed numerous calli on kanamycin-containing medium, and almost all calli regenerated shoots. For ‘Russet Burbank’, it was necessary to include AgNO3 in the medium to obtain efficient shoot regeneration. The transformed plants have one to a few copies of the T-DNA, show NPT-II and PAT activities, and are resistant to high doses of the commercial preparation of phospinotricin (glufosinate). Almost no somaclonal variation was detected in trans-genic plants.

    Notes: Summary A bacterial chitinase gene from Serratia marcescens (chiA) was fused to (i) a promoter of the ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase small subunit (rbcS) gene and (ii) two different chlorophyll a/b binding protein (cab) gene promoters from petunia. The resulting constructions were introduced into Agrobacterium Ti plasmid-based plant cell transformation vectors and used to generate multiple independent transgenic tobacco plants. ChiA mRNA and protein levels were measured in these plants. On average, the rbcS/chiA fusion gave rise to threefold more chiA mRNA than either cab/chiA fusion. We investigated the influence of sequences around the translational initiation ATG codon on the level of ChiA protein. The rbcS/chiA and cab/chiA fusions in which the sequence in the vicinity of the translational initiation codon is ACC ATGGC gave rise to transformants with higher levels of ChiA protein than those carrying a cab/chiA fusion with the sequence CAT ATGCG in the same region. This difference in translational efficiency is consistent with previous findings on preferred sequences in this region of the mRNA. In those transformants showing the highest level of ChiA expression, ChiA protein accumulated to about 0.25% of total soluble leaf protein. These plants contained significantly higher chitinase enzymatic activity than control plants.

    Notes: Summary The 35S promoter of cauliflower mosaic virus and promoters from the nopaline synthase, 1′ and 2′ genes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens T-DNA were fused to the bacterial octopine synthase and chitinase gene coding regions. These chimaeric gene constructions were introduced into tobacco, sugarbeet and oilseed rape cells and their relative levels of expression measured by primer extension analysis of RNA isolated from pooled populations of stably transformed calli. In tobacco callus, the 35S promoter provided the highest levels of gene expression, followed by the 2′, 1′ and nopaline synthase promoters. While the ranking of these promoters is conserved in sugarbeet and oilseed rape callus, there is between-species variation in the relative strength of these promoters. In all three species, transcription initiation is conserved for each of the chimaeric gene constructions. Additional constructions in which the 5′ untranslated leader of a petunia chlorophyll a/b binding protein gene is substituted for DNA downstream of the 35S transcription start site demonstrates that heterologous 5′ leader sequences can be utilized to augment steady-state levels of reporter gene expression

    Notes: Summary Agrobacterium radiobacter strain K84 is used commercially for the biological control of crown gall. It contains the conjugative plasmid pAgK84, which encodes the synthesis of agrocin 84, an antibiotic that inhibits many pathogenic agrobacteria. A breakdown of control is threatened by the transfer of pAgK84 to pathogens, which then become resistant to agrocin 84. A mutant of pAgK84 with a 5.9-kb deletion overlapping the transfer (Tra) region was constructed using recombinant DNA techniques. The BamHI fragment B1 which covers most of the Tra region was cloned in pBR325 and its internal EcoRI fragments D1 and H, which overlap the Tra region, were removed, leaving 3.7 kb and 0.5 kb of pAgK84 on either side of the deletion. The latter was increased to 3.3 kb by adding EcoRI fragment D2 from a BamHI fragment C clone. The modified pBR325 clone was mobilized into Agrobacterium strain NT1 harbouring pAgK84 with a Tn5 insertion just outside the Tra region but covered by the deletion. A Tra+ cointegrate was formed between the Tn5-insertion derivative and the pBR325-based deletion construct by homologous recombination. The cointegrate was transferred by conjugation to a derivative of strain K84 lacking pAgK84, in which a second recombination event generated a stable deletion-mutant by deletion-marker exchange. The resultant new strain of A. radiobacter, designated K1026, shows normal agrocin 84 production. Mating experiments show that the mutant plasmid, designated pAgK1026, is incapable of conjugal transfer at a detectable frequency.

    Notes: Abstract We have used molecular genetics techniques to analyze the structural and functional organization of genetic information ofRhizobium phaseoli, the symbiont of the common bean plantPhaseolus vulgaris. As in otherRhizobium species, the genome consists of the chromosome and plasmids of high molecular weight. Symbiotic determinants, nitrogen fixation genes as well as nodulation genes, are localized on a single replicon, the symbiotic (sym) plasmid. Thesym plasmid of differentR. phaseoli strains was transferred to anAgrobacterium tumefaciens strain cured of its native plasmids. In all cases, Agrobacterium transconjugants able to nodulate bean plants were obtained. Some of the transconjugants had the capacity to elicit an effective symbiosis. The genome ofR. phaseoli is complex, containing a large amount of reiterated DNA sequences. In mostR. pahseoli strains one of such reiterated DNA families corresponds to the nitrogenase structural genes (nif genes). A functional analysis of these genes suggested that the presence of reiteratednif genesis is related to the capacity of fixing atmospheric nitrogen in the symbiotic state. The presence of several repeated sequences in the genome might provide sites for recombination, resulting in genomic rearrangements. By analyzing direct descendants of a single cell in the laboratory, evidence of frequent genomic rearrangements inR. phaseoli was found. We propose that genomic rearrangements constitute the molecular basis of the frequent variability and loss of symbiotic properties in different Rhizobium strains.

Tumorous tissue formation on inoculated stem internodes of sterile-grown plantlets, as well as expression of a β-glucuronidase marker gene interrupted by an intron in cells of inoculated stem nodes, indicate that the monocotyledon Lilium is a host for Agrobacterium.

    Notes: Summary Gene fusions between the β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene and the promoters of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S RNA transcript (CaMV 35S) and the mannopine synthase (mas) genes were introduced into rapeseed varieties via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Fluorometric assay of β-glucuronidase activity indicated different expression patterns for the two promoters. In seedlings, the CaMV 35S promoter had maximum activity in the primary roots, while the mas promoter was most active in the cotyledons. Etiolated seedlings cultured in the dark showed reduced activity of the mas promoter. Before vernalization at the rosette stage, both promoters were more active in older plant parts than in younger ones. At this stage the highest activity was recorded in cotyledons. After the plants had bolted reduced promoter function was detected in the upper parts of the transformed plants. Both promoters were found to be functional in the majority of the studied organs of transgenic rapeseed plants, but the promoter activity varied considerably between the organs at different developmental stages. The ability of pollen to transfer the introduced genes to other varieties and related species (e.g. Brassica napus and Diplotaxus muralis) by cross-pollination was studied in greenhouse experiments, and field trials were carried out to estimate the distance for biologically-relevant gene dispersal. In artificial crossing, the introduced marker gene was transferable into other varieties of Brassica napus. In field trials, at a distance of 1 metre from the source of transgenic plants, the frequency of an outcrossing event was relatively high (10-3). Resistant individuals were found at 16 and 32 metres from the transgenic pollen donors, but the frequency of an outcrossing event dropped to 10-5.

    Notes: Summary To provide a truly genotype-independent transformation system, it is necessary to be able to transform a wide range of potato genotypes. The ability to regenerate shoots in vitro was determined for 34 potato varieties using tuber disc explants. Following a culture regime used extensively in previous studies with the variety Desiree, half of the varieties could be regenerated from tuber discs and half could not. From a sample of varieties that could be regenerated from tuber discs, all but one variety gave transgenic plants. Twelve varieties were evaluated for the capacity to regenerate shoots from leaf and internode explants excised from in vitro grown plants. All of the varieties tested regenerated adventitious shoots. Leaf and internode explants from 5 varieties were subsequently used for transformation, and transgenic plants were produced from two potato varieties that did not give transgenic plants from tuber disc explants. Some varieties could not be transformed by either method, and will require modification of the in vitro regeneration and transformation system to be successful.

    Notes: Summary Leaf explants of apple cvs Gala and Golden Delicious were infected with the Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain AGL0(pMOG410). The effects of a 2 d preculture of the explants before infection and the addition of 5-azacytidine to the selection medium were studied. The percentages of GUS-positive explants after 5 w did not significantly alter due to these treatments. One of the ‘Gala’ shoots, which was removed from a leaf explant cultured for 8 w on selection medium, proved to be GUS-positive and will be analyzed further. In general, however, it should be concluded that regeneration of transgenic shoots directly from leaf tissue was not very effective.
