Efficient plant regeneration and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation via somatic embryogenesis in melon (Cucumis melo L.).
2004-03-01
Abstract excerpt
We established an efficient plant regeneration and transgenic system using somatic embryogenesis in two melon cultivars: Vedrantais (Cucumis melo L., var. cantalupensis) and Earl’s Favourite Fuyu A (C. melo L., var. reticulatus). These model cultivars are used for genetic and development studies of melon. As explants, 1- to 4-mm2 sections of mature seeds were used, including the cotyledon and hypocotyl. To...
