Systematic study was carricd out on PEG-mediatcd transformation of cotyledon protoplast using transient expression system, which showed 25-30 μg of pasmid, 15% PEG and a pH value of 8.0 as the optimal parameters contributing to the highest expression level. Using these parameters, cotyledon protoplasts were isolated, treated with bacterial plasmid DNA (pBI222 with HPT as selective marker) and PEG, and cultured at a density of 5×10 4/ml.After 10-15 days,they were selected by adding 25 μg/ml hygromycine. One month later, a few calli were observed, which were then transferred onto a solid medium with 50-100 μg/ml hygromycine for proliferation. Later they were transferred successively onto differentiation and rooting media and finally hygromycineresistant whole plants were obtaincd. The plants grew well in pots and a regeneration rate of 5 ×10(-5) was achieved. Then,excised leaves of the transgenic plants were used as explants for Southern blot analysis, which confirmed the stable integration of HPT gene into the chromosomal genome of Orychophragmus violaceus The transformation frequency was 10-5.展开更多
