Factors affecting adventitious shoot formation and expression of microprojectile-introduced DNA in Douglas-fir cotyledons

Creator:

Goldfarb, Barry

Abstract:

Our goal was to develop knowledge that will enable insertion of foreign genes into Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] trees. This required improvement of a tissue culture system for producing adventitious shoots from cotyledons, and study of factors affecting gene delivery, expression, and analysis. Administering a short-duration, concentrated liquid pulse...
