    Biolistic transformation of chrysanthemum with the nucleocapsid gene of tomato spotted wilt virus (1995)

    Notes: Abstract In vitro regeneration and biolistic transformation procedures were developed for several commercial chrysanthemum Dendranthema grandiflora Tzvelev, syn. Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat. cultivars using leaf and stem explants. Studies on the effect of several growth regulators and kanamycin on chrysanthemum regeneration were conducted, and a step-wise procedure to optimize kanamycin selection and recovery of transgenic plants was developed. A population of putative transformed chrysanthemum plants cvs. Blush, Dark Bronze Charm, Iridon, and Tara, was obtained after bombardment with tungsten microprojectiles coated with the binary plasmid pBIN19 containing the nucleocapsid (N) gene of tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and the marker gene neomycin phosphotransferase (NPT II). PCR analysis of 82 putative transgenic plants selected on kanamycin indicated that the majority of the lines (89%) were transformed and contained both genes (71%). However, some transgenic lines contained only one of the genes: either the NPT II (15%) or the TSWV (N) gene (14%). Southern blot analysis on selected transgenic lines confirmed the integration of the TSWV (N) gene into the chrysanthemum genome. These results demonstrate the development of an efficient procedure to transfer genetic material into the chrysanthemum genome and selectively regenerate transgenic chrysanthemum plants at frequencies higher than previously reported.

    Notes: Abstract Several factors that affect in vitro establishment, proliferation, and rooting of thirteen Malus cultivars and rootstocks were studied. Apple shoot tips (1.5±0.5 cm in length) were established using ascorbic and citric acids as antioxidants. Four proliferation media containing 1.0 mg 1−1 BA and different concentrations of IBA and GA3 were tested. Proliferation rates varied depending on the genotype and medium used. The highest proliferation rate was obtained for a rootstock that produced 11.6±2.5 shoots (1.5±0.8 cm in length) per tube per month. Rooting was induced with IBA for all the genotypes tested. The optimal IBA concentration was cultivar dependent (between 0.1 and 1.0 mg 1−1 IBA), and lower concentrations were necessary to induce rooting in liquid rather than in solid medium. The effects on shoot-tip proliferation of cefotaxime, carbenicillin and kanamycin, three antibiotics commonly used for transformation studies, were also evaluated. Cefotaxime at 200 mg 1−1 stimulated shoot growth and development, but at 500 mg 1−1 caused abnormal shoot morphology. Carbenicillin at 500 mg 1−1, alone or in combination with cefotaxime at 200 mg 1−1, inhibited proliferation and caused excessive enlargement of the basal leaves, inducing callus formation and release of phenolic compounds in the medium. Kanamycin at 50 mg 1−1 was phytotoxic and caused shoot chlorosis and necrosis. Consideration of the toxicity of these antibiotics is critical when designing transformation schemes for selection and recovery of transgenic apple plants.

    Notes: Abstract Several factors that affect the frequency of organogenesis in apple leaf explants were examined for the scion cultivars ‘Empire’, ‘Freedom’, ‘Golden Delicious’, ‘Liberty’, ‘McIntosh’, and ‘Mutsu’ and for the rootstocks Malling 7A and Malling 26. The main factors affecting morphogenesis were BA concentration, basal medium, leaf explant origin and maturity, explant orientation, and photosynthetic photon flux. Depending on the genotype, optimal regeneration was obtained using either 22.2 or 31.1 μM BA and the N6 basal medium, with the exception of ‘Golden Delicious’ which regenerated better on MS medium. After 6 weeks, the average number of shoots per segment varied from 5 to 16, and the percentage of regeneration between 70 and 100%, depending on the genotype tested and the maturity of the explant. Regeneration capacity increased dramatically from the tip towards the base of the leaf, and was higher from the middle to the proximal end. Cefotaxime and carbenicillin, two antibiotics commonly used during transformation studies to eliminate Agrobacterium tumefaciens from plant tissue, were tested to determine their effect on morphogenesis. Cefotaxime at a dose of 250 mg 1-1 enhanced regeneration and shoot development, whereas carbenicillin at a dose of 500 mg l-1 induced abundant callus formation and inhibited regeneration. Kanamycin, a widely used selection agent for plant transformation, strongly inhibited regeneration even at very low doses. Schemes for selection and recovery of transgenic apple plants when kanamycin is used as the selection agent are discussed.
