Abstract
Helianthus annuus protoplasts were transformed with the plasmid pCaMVNEO (Frommet al. 1986) conferring kanamycin resistance to plant. Transformed calli were selected with a frequency of 4 calli for 106 treated protoplasts. DNA was extracted from kanamycin resistant calli. Analysis of this DNA shows the presence of the NPTII gene.
