Some of the embryonic calli were transferred onto regeneration medium to examine the ability of regeneration, some were transformed via Agrobacterium tumifaciens C58 carrying intron-β-glucuronidase （gus） gene, and GV3301 carrying the green fluorescent protein （gfp） gene to study the susceptibility of different genotypes in maize to A. tumifaciens. All embryonic calli initiated from 10-maize inbred lines were able to regenerate into plantlets, and the regeneration frequencies of inbred lines 6010, 6038, 6015, 6051, and 6060 were 61.11%, 31.94%, 45%, 33.33%, and 56.94%, respectively, which were higher than that of other lines. Analysis of variance indicated that the susceptibility of the various genotypes in maize to A. tumifacien C58 showed a significant difference among each other, and the inbred lines 6010, 6015, 6051, 6050, 6058, 6060, 6069, 6077 were susceptible to A. tumifacien C58, of which frequency of gus expression were over 70%. Expression of GFP was observed in six-inbred lines （6050, 6015, 6051, 6058, 6069, 6077）. The inbred lines 6051, 6010, 6015, 6060, and 6050 had the high regeneration and the susceptibility to A. tumifaciens C58; and the inbred lines 6051, 6015, and 6060 had the high regeneration and the susceptibility to Agrobacterium tumifaciens GV3301.展开更多

Its various pharmaceutical applications cause an excessive harvesting and lead to serious shortage in natural habitat. Thus, this in vitro propagation study investigated the effects of different plant growth regulators (PGRs) on in vitro leaf and stem explants of L. pumila. Methods: The capabilities of callus, shoot, and root formation were evaluated by culturing both explants on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with various PGRs at the concentrations of 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 mg/L. Results: Medium supplemented with 3 mg/L indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) showed the optimal callogenesis from both leaf and stem explants with (72.34±19.55)% and (70.40±14.14)% efficacy, respectively. IBA was also found to be the most efficient PGR for root induction. A total of (50.00±7.07)% and (77.78±16.47)% of root formation were obtained from the in vitro stem and leaf explants after being cultured for (26.5±5.0) and (30.0±8.5) d in the medium supplemented with 1 and 3 mg/L of IBA, respectively. Shoot formation was only observed in stem explant, with the maximum percentage of formation ((100.00±0.00)%) that was obtained in 1 mg/L zeatin after (11.0±2.8) d of culture. Conclusions: Callus, roots, and shoots can be induced from in vitro leaf and stem explants of L. pumila through the manipulation of types and concentrations of PGRs.展开更多
