Abstract
Efficient production of transgenic plants is a prerequisite for the production of recombinant proteins in plants. In many dicotyledonous plants, Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation has been well established. High efficacy and low cost make this the method of choice in many research laboratories for studying gene expression in plants (1).
