Abstract

Progress in plant molecular biology has been dependent on efficient methods of introducing foreign DNA into plant cells. Gene transfer into plant cells can be achieved by either direct uptake of DNA or the natural process of gene transfer carried out by the soil bacterium Agrobacterium. Versatile gene-transfer vectors have been developed for use with Agrobacterium and more recently vectors based on the genomes of plant viruses have become available. Using this technology the expression of foreign DNA, the functional analysis of plant DNA sequences, the investigation of the mechanism of viral DNA replication and cell to cell spread, as well as the study of transposition, can be carried out. In addition, the versatility of the gene-transfer vectors is such that they may be used to isolate genes not amenable to isolation using conventional protocols. This review concentrates on these aspects of plant molecular biology and discusses the limitations of the experimental systems that are currently available.

While this paper was in the press, several significant relevant papers have appeared and include further detailed analysis of the 35S RNA promoter [Benfey, P. N., Ren, L. & Chua, N.-H. (1990) EM BOJ. 9,1677 –1684; Benfey, P. N., Ren, L. & Chua, N.-H. (1990) EMBO J. 9, 1685 ? 1696], factors that bind to the promoters of plant genes [Gilmatin, P. M., Sarokin, L., Memelink, J. & Chua, N.-H. (1990) The Plant Cell 2, 369?378] and the tagging of the Arabidopsis agamous gene by T-DNA [Yanofsky, M. F., Ma, H., Bowman, J. L., Drews, G., Feldmann, K. A. & Meyerowitz, E. M. (1990) Nature 346, 35–39].
