Double haploid (DH) genotypes of canola (Brassica napus L.) have a high level of genetic uniformity but have not been previously tested for genetic transformation. Transgenic plants from three of four DH genotypes derived from cv. Westar were obtained by inoculation of either hypocotyl segments or root explants with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. For hypocotyl transformation, A. tumefaciens strain LBA4404 containing a binary plasmid with the neomycin phosphotransferase gene (nptII) and a CaMV 35S-peroxidase gene cassette was co-cultivated with hypocotyl segments taken from the 5–6-day-old seedlings. Transformation frequencies for hypocotyl explants of two DH genotypes were 0.3–3%. Direct evidence for genetic transformation of hypocotyl explants was obtained through molecular hybridisation analysis. Using this protocol, mature transformed plants were obtained within 4–6 months of co-cultivation. A method of root transformation was successfully modified for one DH genotype of canola and transgenic plants were obtained at a frequency of 2%. Using this protocol, a peroxidase gene promoter–GUS fusion construct was introduced into a DH genotype. Tissue specific GUS expression driven by the peroxidase gene promoter in transgenic plants was analysed by GUS staining. Transformation systems for double haploid canola lines will permit the assessment of introduced genes for their effect on agronomic and physiological traits.

The Arabidopsis thaliana mutants uvh1 and rad5, originally identified as radiation hypersensitive, were reported to be deficient in T-DNA integration based on the relative efficiencies of stable transformation and T-DNA transfer. We reassessed these mutants for susceptibility to transformation by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The mutant rad5 showed a significant reduction in the efficiency of transient as well as stable transformation, compared with its wild-type progenitor. These data indicate that rad5 is blocked at a step in the transformation process prior to T-DNA integration. We additionally found, using both an in vitro root inoculation and an in vivo flower bolt inoculation assay, that the mutant uvh1 is as susceptible to A. tumefaciens-mediated transformation as is its wild-type progenitor, C10.

This study aimed to optimize factors for the efficient delivery of foreign genes into sweetpotato using Agrobacterium tumefaciens and develop transgenic plants. Disarmed Agrobacterium C58 carrying a binary vector pBI 121C2H with gusA, nptll, and the nutritional protein asp-l genes was used to cocultivate (4 days) petiole explants of the sweetpotato genotype P1318846-3. Pre-incubation of petioles for 3 days on MS medium with 2,4-D (0.2 mg·liter–1) before infection resulted in higher transformation. Putative transgenic shoots were obtained by transfer of petioles to MS medium with TDZ (0.2 mg·liter–1) and kanamycin (80 to 140 mg·liter–1). The PCR amplification of gusA, nptll, and asp-1 genes in the 37 putative transgenic shoots showed that six plants contained the three genes. However, none of these plants showed histochemical expression of the gusA gene. The introduced gene may have been methylated resulting in the lack of its expression. DNA blot hybridization studies are underway to verify the presence and integration of the transgenes.
