Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for genetic transformation of onion epidermal cells, in particular to a simple and efficient method for transforming exogenous genes into epidermal cells in onion bulb leaves mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Background technique
[0002] The inner epidermis of onion bulb leaves has the advantages of convenient material collection, obvious cell structure, transparency, no chloroplast interference, easy observation, and in vivo detection. It is used as a plant genetic transformation receptor and is widely used in protein subcellular localization and promoter activity. In recent years, with the rapid development of cell biology and molecular biology, it has become increasingly important to use onion epidermal cells as receptors to study the functions and characteristics of genes, proteins, promoters, etc. A hotspot in molecular biology research.
[0003] At present, the genetic transformation of onion epidermal cel...
