The aim of this work was to explore the possibility of obtaining transgenic plants of onion varieties cultivated in Argentina, starting from calli induced from mature zygotic embryos, using two strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens as transfection vectors. Mature embryos from three varieties of 'Valenciana' onion, Torrentina, Cobriza INTA and Grano de oro were in vitro cultivated for callus induction. After three to four months an average of 57.4% success for the three varieties was reached. Transformation was carried out with Agl1 or LBA 4404 A. tumefaciens strains, both carrying a binary vector containing the marker gene gus a and the selection gene nptII. Selection was done in callus induction medium containing 10 mgL-1 geneticin during three... |
