Abstract
Provided is a method for the generation and selection of transgenic plant cells and tissue as well as plants of the genus Linum, in particular flax. Furthermore, transgenic plant cells, tissue and plants obtained by a method of the invention and their use in plant cell and tissue culture and plant breeding is described.
Claims25
A method for the generation of transgenic plants of the genus Linum comprising
- (a) introducing a recombinant DNA molecule comprising at least one selectable marker gene which confers resistance to at least one antibiotic into plant cells;
- (b) induction of transgenic callus from the cells of (a);
- and
- (c) regeneration of transgenic plants from the induced callus, wherein
- (i) after callus induction and/or culturing the calli on a medium containing a first antibiotic
- (ii) the calli or shoots regenerated therefrom are transferred onto a medium containing a second antibiotic which is different from the first antibiotic.
