Abstract:
Being a model plant, Arabidopsis transformation is a frequent routine in genetics and molecular laboratories. Here, we explain a modified floral dip method routinely used in our laboratory for Arabidopsis transformation by applying drought stress after plant treatment with Agrobacterium. By using this method, hundreds of individual transgenic plants are produced from just 30 infiltrated plants by increasing transformation frequency from 1% to 10% within 2-3 months.
