Abstract
We have usedin vitro-grown microtuber discs in the transformation of Russet Burbank and Lemhi Russet potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivars byAgrobacterium-mediated gene transfer. Transformed plants were selected by their resistance to kanamycin and identified by β-glucuronidase activity. Northern blot analysis confirmed the presence of the corresponding messenger RNA. The ability to transform these two cultivars promises significant improvements to agronomically important varieties.Entities:
