    Notes: Abstract Fertile transgenic barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) plants were obtained by high velocity particle bombardment. The plasmid pBCl was used to deliver the selectable hph gene and reporter Gus gene into immature embryo. After the selection culture 18 hygromycin resistant plants were obtained. Samples for Southern hybridization and enzymatic Gus assay were obtained from 11 plants. Southern hybridization confirmed the presence of the hph gene in the 11 hygromycin resistant plants(T0). Enzymatic assay indicated that all the t0 plants that showed hph positive in Southern analysis possessed detectable amount of Gus activity. To date all the 11 t0 plants reached maturity and mature seeds were obtained Transmission of the hph gene to progeny(T1) of two independent t0 plants was confirmed by Southern hybridization.

    Notes: Abstract A number of A/T-rich sequences and a CATGCAT/A sequence are contained in the 5′-upstream regions of the genes encoding concanavalin A (Con A) and canavalin, two major seed storage proteins of Canavalia gladiata D.C. To study the role of these sequences in the seed-specific gene expression, we constructed 5′-deletion mutants and examined the transient expression of β-glucuronidase reporter gene by particle bombardment and the stable expression by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of tobacco plants. Positive regulatory elements were located in the −894/−602 and −602/−74 regions of the Con A gene, and in the −428/−376, −281/−155 and −155/−50 regions of the canavalin gene. In addition, the results suggested that the A/T-rich sequences in the 5′-upstream region of the Con A gene play a role in transcriptional activation, but that those of the canavalin gene have little effect on the gene expression. The CATGCAT/A sequence was not sufficient by itself for high levels of expression of both the Con A and canavalin genes. The canavalin polypeptide amounted to about 1% of the total extractable protein in the transgenic tobacco seeds, but the Con A polypeptide was not detected in the extractable protein.

    Notes: Abstract Gold particles coated with β-glucuronidase (GUS) mRNA with a 5′ cap structure that had been synthesized in vitro were introduced, by use of a pneumatic particle gun, into pollen grains of lily (Lilium longiflorum), freesia (Freesia refracta) and tulip (Tulipa gesneriana). A fluorometric assay for the GUS activity indicated that in vitro synthesized GUS mRNA introduced into these pollen cells by particle bombardment was successfully expressed. GUS activity in extracts of the bombarded lily pollen became detectable fluorometrically within 30 min after bombardment, peaked at 6 h, then gradually decreased. This activity changed as a function of the developmental stage of the pollen cell of lily.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper we first review literature on the performance of various promoters in monocotyledonous species. In general, promoters isolated from monocots show a higher activity in monocot species. Moreover, the presence of an intron between the promoter and reporter gene increases transcription levels. We used the same approach to study gene expression in Liliaceae. The activities of the CaMV 35S, maize Adh1-based pEmu, rice Act1 and maize Ubi promoters, coupled to the β-glucuronidase (gus) reporter gene, were evaluated for transient gene expression upon particle bombardment of tissues of tobacco, rice, tulip, lily and leek. Although monocot promoters performed very well in rice tissues, the results of this study show that this cannot be generalized for other monocot species. The transcription inducing effects of monocot promoters were less pronounced or even absent in tissues of Liliaceae, while the presence of an intron between promoter and gus gene reduced promoter activity.

    Notes: Abstract Transgenic rice embryogenic callus and plants were recovered from experiments involving electric discharge particle acceleration (AccellTM technology). Critical parameters influencing successful delivery and stable integration of exogenous DNA into organized rice tissue had been identified previously. We report here on the effects of one selective agent (hygromycin B) on the phenotype and genotype of recovered callus and plants. The nature, timing and culture practices appeared to be more critical for the successful recovery of transgenic callus and plants than the level of selection used. By utilizing the procedures described in this report, transformation frequencies well in excess of 10% were obtained routinely in all varieties of rice tested. The combination of AccellTM technology with a selectable and prolific regeneration culture system resulted in the development of a variety-independent and highly efficient method for the routine introduction of any gene into any rice variety.

    Notes: Abstract Immature pollen fromNicotiana rustica was bombarded with gold particles coated with plasmid DNA encoding neomycin phosphotransferase II (NPTII) and β-glucuronidase (GUS) genes which, respectively, are under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter and nopaline synthase (NOS) terminator in the plasmid. Kanamycin-resistant pollen embryoids were selected from the bombarded pollen cells and two independent lines of transgenic plants were regenerated. Enzyme assays showed that one has both NPTII and GUS activities and the other only weak NPTII activity. Southern blot analyses indicated that the former has a DNA fragment corresponding to the intact expression cassettes for both genes in its genome; whereas the latter lacks intact expression cassettes for both genes and has only the intactnptII coding sequence in its genome. The transgenic plants of both lines have 24 chromosomes, confirming haploidy, and they are infertile. These results indicate that transgenic haploid plants can be produced directly by the bombardment-mediated transformation of immature pollen.
