Potato transformation byAgrobacterium rhizogenes Ri plasmid

Abstract

Potato root cultures transformed bypRiA4 T-DNA do not regenerate plants in vitro spontaneously, but regeneration can be induced by a sequence of callogenesis and regeneration media. Both Tl and Tr-DNA were found by Southern blotting. Regenerated transformants showed characteristic morphological deviations in the invitro cultures. Plants in the soil showed differences in the inflorescence and tuber development.
