    Notes: Summary A biolistic particle gun was used to deliver genetic material into intact yam cells. Cultured suspension cells of D. alata were bombarded with microprojectiles coated with pBI221.2 DNA and histochemical assays were carried out to show transient GUS expression in bombarded cells. Stably transformed D. alata cells were recovered from cultured cells after bombardment with microprojectiles coated with pRT99gus harbouring both the nptII and uidA genes. Bombarded cells were selected on a medium containing geneticin (G418). Two months after bombardment, calli resistant to G418 were assayed for GUS expression. There was a 100% correlation between resistance to G418 and GUS expression. From these calli, four cell lines were established and GUS activity in each line was determined fluorometrically. The use of a specific GUS inhibitor showed that the GUS activity was due to the introduced uidA gene rather than to any intrinsic GUS-like activity originating from the plant. Incorporation of the introduced DNA into the plant genomic DNA was confirmed by Southern analysis.

    Notes: Summary Explants of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill cv. Ailsa Craig) were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58C1Rifr::pGSFR1161 in the presence of 20 (μM acetosyringone). Transformed root clones were selected on kanamycin medium and the presence of the nptII gene in the plant DNA confirmed by the polymerase chain reaction. Root clones derived from acetosyringone treatment grew more vigorously in the presence of kanamycin and synthesized a greater amount of NPT-II enzyme. The conclusion is that acetosyringone treatment enhances the transformation process, possibly by stimulating multiple insertions of the T-DNA into the host genome.

    Notes: Abstract Transgenic haploid maize (Zea mays L.) plants were obtained from protoplasts isolated from microspore-derived cell suspension cultures. Protoplasts were electroporated in the presence of plasmid DNA containing the gus A and npt II genes encoding ß-glucuronidase (GUS) and neomycin phosphotransferase II (NPT II), respectively. Transformed calli were selected and continuously maintained on kanamycin containing medium. Stable transformation was confirmed by enzyme assays and DNA. analysis. Stably transformed tissue was transferred to regeneration medium and several plants were obtained. Most plants showed NPT II activity, and some also showed GUS activity. Chromosome examinations performed on representative plants showed that they were haploid. As expected, these plants were infertile.

    Notes: Abstract In Arabidopsis tissues, the pool of tubulin protein is provided by the expression of multiple α-tubulin and β-tubulin genes. Previous evidence suggested that the TUA2 α-tubulin gene was expressed in all organs of mature plants. We now report a more detailed analysis of TUA2 expression during plant development. Chimeric genes containing TUA2 5′-flanking DNA fused to the β-glucuronidase (GUS) coding region were used to create transgenic Arabidopsis plants. Second-generation progeny of regenerated plants were analyzed by histochemical assay to localize GUS expression. GUS activity was seen throughout plant development and in nearly all tissues. The blue product of GUS activity accumulated to the highest levels in tissues with actively dividing and elongating cells. GUS activity was not detected in a few plant tissues, suggesting that, though widely expressed, the TUA2 promoter is not constitutively active.

    Notes: Abstract We have studied the effect of the demethylating agent azacytidine (azaC) on expression of a β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene transferred to tobacco leaf disks by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. In a system where no selection was performed, where shoot formation was partially repressed, and where Agrobacterium does not express the GUS gene, we were able to follow the early events of transient and stable expression. Two days after inoculation, 8% of the cells expressed GUS but this proportion rapidly decreased to near zero in the following week. Treatment of leaf disks with azaC just after transformation retarded this inactivation to some extent, while treatment of Agrobacterium prior to transformation increased the frequency of transient expression. Three weeks after inoculation the number of GUS-expressing cells increased 4- to 6-fold in the leaf disks treated with azaC and in the leaf disks transformed with azaC-treated bacteria, while the control remained low. These data suggest that DNA methylation is involved in transgene inactivation and that a large number of silent but potentially active transgenes become integrated.

    Notes: Abstract A reproducible and efficient transformation system has been developed for maize that is based on direct DNA uptake into embryogenic protoplasts and regeneration of fertile plants from protoplast-derived transgenic callus tissues. Plasmid DNA, containing the β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene, under the control of the doubled enhancer element (the −208 to −46 bp upstream fragment) from CaMV 35S promoter, linked to the truncated (up to −389 bp from ATG) promoter of wheat, α-amylase gene was introduced into protoplasts from suspension culture of HE/89 genotype. The constructed transformation vectors carried either the neomycin phosphotransferase (NPTII) or phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT) gene as selective marker. The applied DNA uptake protocol has resulted at least in 10–20 resistant calli, or GUS-expressing colonies after treatment of 106 protoplasts. Vital GUS staining of microcalli has made possible the shoot regeneration from the GUS-stained tissues. 80–90% of kanamycin or PPT resistant calli showed GUS activity, and transgenic plants were regenerated from more than 140 clones. Both Southern hybridization and PCR analysis showed the presence of introduced foreign genes in the genomic DNA of the transformants. The chimeric promoter, composed of a tissue specific monocot promoter, and the viral enhancer element specified similar expression pattern in maize plants, as it was determined by the full CaMV 35S promoter in dicot and other monocot plants. The highest GUS specific activity was found in older leaves with progressively less activity in young leaves, stem and root. Histochemical localization of GUS revealed promoter function in leaf epidermis, mesophyll and vascular bundles, in the cortex and vascular cylinder of the root. In roots, the meristematic tip region and vascular tissues stained intensively. Selected transformants were grown up to maturity, and second-generation seedlings with segregation for GUS activity were obtained after outcrossing. The GUS-expressing segregants carried also the NPTII gene as shown by Southern hybridization.

    Notes: Abstract Transcriptional and translational fusions were made between the reading frame coding for β-D-glucuronidase and sequences of either a constitutively expressed rice gene (GOS2) involved in initiation of translation or a light-inducible rice gene (GOS5). The transient expression of the fusions was studied via particle bombardment of seedling tissues of rice, perennial ryegrass and barley. Furthermore, the results of transient and stable expression were compared for cell suspensions of four rice varieties, one barley variety and one perennial ryegrass variety. TheGOS2-gusA fusions were active in all three monocots studied. Best results were obtained for a construct having both a transcriptional and a translational fusion as well as intron and exon sequences (PORCEHyg). The level of GUS activity was in the range of activities as obtained by the 35S CaMV promoter transcriptionally fused togusA. ThegusA fusion with the light-inducible gene (GOS5) was active in green seedling tissues of all monocots studied. Also a weak expression compared to theGOS2 constructs was found in stably transformed rice callus. ThegusA fusions with the mannopine synthase promoters 1′ and 2′ of the TR-DNA were transiently expressed at lower levels in cell suspensions than PORCEHyg. For stably transformed rice callus the expression of theGOS2-gusA fusion often decreased during prolonged subculture. This decrease in GUS activity and the various GUS-staining phenotypes of transgenic calli are explained by the presence of different cell types in the suspensions used and in the calli. It is presumed that the nature of the cells and their relative contribution in the calli change drastically upon further subculture.

    Notes: Abstract We have used the bar gene in combination with the herbicide Basta to select transformed rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Radon) protoplasts for the production of herbicide-resistant rice plants. Protoplasts, obtained from regenerable suspension cultures established from immature embryo callus, were transformed using PEG-mediated DNA uptake. Transformed calli could be selected 2–4 weeks after placing the protoplast-derived calli on medium containing the selective agent, phosphinothricin (PPT), the active component of Basta. Calli resistant to PPT were capable of regenerating plants. Phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT) assays confirmed the expression of the bar gene in plants obtained from PPT-resistant calli. The only exceptions were two plants obtained from the same callus that had multiple copies of the bar gene integrated into their genomes. The transgenic status of the plants was varified by Southern blot analysis. In our system, where the transformation was done via the protoplast method, there were very few escapes. The efficiency of co-transformation with a reporter gene gusA, was 30%. The To plants of Radon were self-fertile. Both the bar and gusA genes were transmitted to progeny as confirmed by Southern analysis. Both genes were expressed in T1 and T2 progenies. Enzyme analyses on T1 progeny plants also showed a gene dose response reflecting their homozygous and heterozygous status. The leaves of To plants and that of the progeny having the bar gene were resistant to application of Basta. Thus, the bar gene has proven to be a useful selectable and screenable marker for the transformation of rice plants and for the production of herbicide-resistant plants.

    Notes: Abstract The cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC6803 was chosen as a target organism for construction of a suitable photosynthetic host to enable selection of variant plant-like ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) enzymes. The DNA region containing the operon encoding Rubisco (rbc) was cloned, sequenced and used for the construction of a transformation vector bearing flanking sequences to the rbc genes. This vector was utilized for the construction of a cyanobacterial rbc null mutant in which the entire sequence comprising both rbc genes, was replaced by the Rhodospirillum rubrum rbcL gene linked to a chloramphenicol resistance gene. Chloramphenicol-resistant colonies, Syn6803†rbc, were detected within 8 days when grown under 5% CO2 in air. These transformants were unable to grow in air (0.03% CO2). Analysis of their genome and Rubisco protein confirmed the site of the mutation at the rbc locus, and indicated that the mutation had segregated throughout all of the chromosome copies, consequently producing only the bacterial type of the enzyme. In addition, no carboxysome structures could be detected in the new mutant. Successful restoration of the wild-type rbc locus, using vectors bearing the rbc operon flanked by additional sequences at both termini, could only be achieved upon incubating the transformed cells under 5% CO2 in air prior to their transferring to air. The yield of restored transformants was proportionally related to the length of those sequences flanking the rbc operon which participate in the homologous recombination. The Syn6803Δrbc mutant is amenable for the introduction of in vitro mutagenized rbc genes into the rbc locus, aiming at the genetic modification of the hexadecameric type Rubisco.

    Notes: Abstract Deletions in the spinach rubisco activase (Rca) promoter in transgenic tobacco were analyzed to define the regions necessary for conferring light-inducible and tissue-specific expression. Transgenic plants were constructed with Bal 31 deletions of the Rca promoter fused to the coding region of the bacterial reporter gene β-glucuronidase (GUS). Analysis of the Rca deletion mutants localized the region conferring normal expression downstream from −294 relative to the Rca transcription start site. A second set of transgenic plants containing the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S enhancer fused to the 3′ end of the Rca/GUS constructs demonstrated the presence of a light-responsive element between −150 and −78 active in leaves. Regions 10 bp long within the light-responsive region, which included putative G box and GT elements, were removed by recombinant polymerase chain reaction. Deletion of the G box element resulted in a loss of gene expression in the leaves of transgenic tobacco, while deletion of the GT motif caused a 10–100-fold increase in expression in roots. However, site-directed mutagenesis of the GT motif resulted in expression patterns identical to the normal promoter. These experiments demonstrated that light-inducible and tissue-specific expression of the Rca promoter involves multiple cis elements proximal to the transcription start site, and that interactions between these elements are essential for regulating expression.

    Notes: Abstract In an attempt to develop a system for producing transformed plants from explants ofDendranthema grandiflora, the susceptibility of the cultivar Super White to various wild-type strains ofAgrobacterium tumefaciens andA. rhizogenes was investigated. Tumour formation was not a reliable indicator of the ability of a related disarmed strain to mediate transformation. Following inoculation of explants with disarmedAgrobacterium strains, a number of shoots developed on selective media. However, none of these shoots were transformed. By co-cultivating stem internode explants with a mixed inoculum of wild-type and disarmed strains, it was possible to obtain a callus stably transformed withAgrobacterium carrying a disarmed T-DNA. Histological analysis of explants revealed that shoot regeneration initially occurred from the cells of the epidermis and subsequently from the cortex. However, the cells which were susceptible to T-DNA transfer were confined to the vascular tissue.

    Notes: Abstract This paper is the second part of a review which considers evidence for the involvement of auxin in root initiation. Part II examines the research being carried out with transformed plant tissues. Agrobacterium rhizogenes causes abundant root initiation at the site of inoculation. Ri plasmid T-DNA contains several genes which encode enzymes involved in the biosynthesis and metabolism of indole-3-acetic acid. Transfer of various fragments of the Ri plasmid has also been reported to confer increased sensitivity to auxin upon plant cells. Controlled expression of these genes in the plant genome potentially offer an insight for developmental plant physiologists into the role of plant growth substances in the process of root initiation. The importance of absolute levels of IAA in the stimulation of root initiation is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract This review describes work aimed at the improvement of the nutritive value of grain and forage legumes using gene transfer techniques. Two traits which are amenable to manipulation by genetic engineering have been identified. These are plant protein quality and lignin content. In order to increase the quality of protein provided by the legume grains peas and lupins, we are attempting to introduce into these species chimeric genes encoding a sunflower seed protein rich in the sulphur-containing amino acids methionine and cysteine. These genes are designed to be expressed only in developing seeds of transgenic host plants. Chimeric genes incorporating a similar protein-coding region, but different transcriptional controls, are being introduced into the forage legumes lucerne and subterranean clover. In this case the genes are highly expressed in the leaves of transformed plants, and modifications have been made to the sunflower seed protein-coding sequences in order to increase the stability of the resultant protein in leaf tissue. Another approach to increasing plant nutritive value is represented by attempts to reduce the content of indigestible lignin in lucerne.

    Notes: Abstract Explants from leaves of in vitro-grown chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflora Tzvel.) cultivars regenerated adventitious shoots without an intermediate callus phase. Puncturing explants with a brush increased regenerations, but in combination with cocultivation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens it had an adverse effect on shoot formation. The negative effect of brushing and cocultivation could be overcome by preculturing explants for 8 days. Preculture altered the location of transformed sites but did not inhibit transformation. Regeneration following cocultivation with Agrobacterium is also encouraged if alternative regeneration protocols are used that do not require brushing.

    Notes: Summary The DNA delivery systems which are routinely used to introduce genes into crop plants are Agrobacterium tumefaciens, electroporation and particle bombardment. The differences and similarities between these different transformation techniques are outlined. The influence of the cell biological approach, and more specifically the impact of the state of the plant cell at the moment of transformation, on the genotype and phenotype of the regenerated transgenic plant is analysed. In this respect phenomena such as position effects, gene silencing, co-suppression, epistasis, co-transformation and somaclonal variation are discussed. The relevance of these factors for plant breeders is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of the solvents acetone (AT), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and methylcellosolve (MCS) on the inclusion of 2-acetylnaphthalene (2-AN) in the host, 1,1-di(p-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexane (DHC) has been investigated. Each solvent molecule is included in DHC in a molar ratio of 1.0, when DHC is crystallized from the solvents. The evaporation rate of these solvents from the host lattice decreases in the order AT, MCS and DMSO. The order agrees well with the interaction strength between the host and solvent molecule, which was measured by DSC and IR. 2-AN cannot be included in the crystals by crystallization from MCS and DMSO solutions. However, in AT solution both AT and 2-AN are included competitively and the morphology of the crystals is different from that obtained in pure solution. The amount of 2-AN in the crystals increases continuously with its concentration in solution. This behavior indicates that AT is replaced by 2-AN and the solid solution of the molecular complex is formed. The solid solution is a metastable form and the solution-mediated tranformation to the stable form (which includes only AT) was observed.

    Notes: Abstract Transformed callus was produced from peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. cv. Okrun) hypocotyl explants after four days of co-cultivation withAgrobacterium tumefaciens strains EHA101, LBA4404 or ASE1 carrying the binary vector pKYLX71GUS on a defined medium followed by selection with kanamycin (200 mg l−1). Transformed calluses were cultured as independent cell lines potentially derived from a single transformation event. Stable integration and expression of foreign gene(s) in the callus was confirmed by Southern and western blot analyses and enzyme assays. A few cell lines showed a single insert of the foreign gene. Using the above protocol, transformed peanut callus expressing the peanut stripe virus coat protein gene was obtained.

    Introduction of hygromycin resistance inLotus spp. throughAgrobacterium rhizogenes transformation (1993)

    Notes: Abstract The speciesLotus corniculatus andL. tenuis were transformed with anAgrobacterium rhizogenes binary vector, conferring resistance to the antibiotic hygromycin. Transgenic plants recovered from both species were tested for the ability of leaf-derived calluses to grow in a hygromycin-supplemented medium. Molecular analysis showed the integration of the Ri T-DNA and of the gene for hygromycin resistance, with a high frequency of co-transformation. Progeny analysis of the hygromycin resistance indicated this to be a single Mendelian trait in test plants. The transformed plants will be utilized in somatic hybridization experiments with lucerne for producing non-bloating genotypes with condensed tannins in leaves.

    Interaction of the neu/p185 and EGF receptor tyrosine kinases: Implications for cellular transformation and tumor therapy (1993)

    Notes: Growth factor receptors such as the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the p185c-neu protein serve vital roles in the transduction of differentiation, developmental, or mitogenic signaling within normal cells. Two methods of analysis suggest that the inappropriately high expression of either protein tyrosine kinase promotes malignant transformation. First, data from in vitro experiments indicate that overexpression of either EGFR or p185c-neu (or the human homolog c-erbB-2) transforms cell-lines. Second, analysis of primary tumors and tumor cell-lines derived from many epithelial tissues (breast, stomach, ovary, and pancreas) show growth factor receptor gene amplification and elevated protein levels. The physical and functional interaction of p185c-neu and EGFR leads to the formation of a highly active, heterodimeric tyrosine kinase complex which synergistically activates cellular transformation. Anti-receptor antibodies have shown potential utility for the down modulation of these cell-surface proteins and suppression of the malignant phenotype. Design of organic antibody “mimetics” based on the structure of antireceptor antibodies may provide useful therapies and biological reagents to affect growth factor receptor function.
