Abstract:
PURPOSE: A transgenic lawn grass with herbicide resistance and diseases resistance is provided to maintain stability and to enhance biological and abiotic stress resistance. CONSTITUTION: A transgenic lawn grass with herbicide resistance and diseases resistance is obtained by transforming with a vector containing PepEST1 and Bar genes. The vector is transformed to grass embryonic developing callus by agrobacterium. The callus is cultured in a callus-inducing medium containing 0.2-0.8 mg/L of kinetin. The herbicide contains glufosinate as an active ingredient. The grass is Bentgrass.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a new variety of Miscanthus sinensis having herbicide resistance by a transformation technique of Miscanthus sinensis using Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The present invention relates to a manufacturing method of a transgenic Miscanthus sinensis plant; to a transgenic Miscanthus sinensis plant manufactured by the method; and to seeds of the transgenic Miscanthus sinensis plant, wherein the method comprises the steps of (a) sterilizing mature seeds of Miscanthus sinensis of which seed coats have been removed; (b) placing the seeds of Miscanthus sinensis which have been sterilized on a callus induction medium to induce an embryogenic callus of Miscanthus sinensis; (c) inoculating an inoculation medium with Agrobacterium tumefaciens comprising a plant expression vector into which a selectable marker and an exotic gene are inserted and with the embryogenic callus of Miscanthus sinensis which has been induced, followed by performing a cocultivation process in a cocultivation medium to transform the embryogenic callus of Miscanthus sinensis; (d) selecting plant cells which have been cocultivated in a selection medium to which an antibiotic or a herbicide is added; and (e) performing a redifferentiation process of Miscanthus sinensis cells which have been selected in a redifferentiation medium.
