Transgenic Plants

7.0K
Recombinant DNA technology called transgenesis is often used to add a foreign gene or remove a detrimental gene from an organism. Such genetically modified organisms are called transgenic organisms.
The first-ever transgenic plant was a tobacco plant developed in 1983 that showed resistance against the tobacco mosaic virus. Since then, many transgenic plants have been developed and commercialized for improving the agricultural, ornamental, and horticultural value of a crop plant. Transgenic...

Plant Breeding and Biotechnology

Crop cultivation has a long history in human civilization, with records showing the cultivation of cereal plants beginning at around 8000 BC. This early plant breeding was developed primarily to provide a steady supply of food.

Area of Science:

  • Plant biotechnology
  • Genetics
  • Molecular biology

Background:

  • Agrobacterium rhizogenes mediated transformation is a key tool for genetic modification in plants.
  • Solanum tuberosum (potato) is a globally important crop species.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To regenerate and characterize potato plants transformed with Agrobacterium rhizogenes.
  • To investigate the phenotypic and cytological effects of transformation.

Main Methods:

  • Infection of Solanum tuberosum cv 'Desiree' shoots with Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain LBA 9402.
  • Regeneration of transformed plantlets.
  • Phenotypic analysis and comparison with control plants.
  • Cytological examination of chromosome number and structure.

Main Results:

  • Forty-two transformed potato plants were successfully regenerated.
  • Transformed plants displayed uniform, distinct phenotypes: vigorous early growth, abundant roots with reduced geotropism, crinkled glossy leaves, and longer tubers with prominent eyes.
  • Ten of the 42 transformed plants were aneuploid (47 or 49 chromosomes), with two showing structural aberrations.

Conclusions:

  • Agrobacterium rhizogenes transformation can induce significant phenotypic changes in potato.
  • Aneuploidy and structural chromosomal changes can occur in regenerated transformed potato plants.
