Herbicide Resistant Fertile Transgenic Wheat Plants Obtained by Microprojectile Bombardment of Regenerable Embryogenic Callus.
1992-06-01
Abstract excerpt
We have obtained fertile transgenic wheat plants resistant to the broad spectrum herbicide Basta® (active ingredient phosphinothricin, PPT) by high velocity microprojectile bombardment. The plasmid pBARGUS was used to deliver the selectable bar gene into cells of Type C long–term regenerable embryogenic callus. Phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme activity encoded by the bar gene was demonstrated in fou...
