Abstract/Contents:Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Develop and optimize tissue culture conditions in order to obtain embryogenic calli and to regenerate plantlets of hybrid bermudagrass. 2. Develop a procedure to transform the embryogenic calli by the biolistic (particle bombardment) method and to recover transgenic plants. 3. Obtain transgenic plants of hybrid bermudagrass that express nematode resistant genes." States that "last year, we showed that by adding 0.01 mg/L 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) in the callus induction medium (MS with 1 mg/L 2,4-D), we were able to induce embryogenic structures from otherwise very fluffy callus and the bermudagrass regeneration was substantially improved." Results also suggest "that agrobacterium can infect bermudagrass and thus may be used to transform bermudagrass." This five-year study began in 1998.
