Progress on Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated Plant Transformation

Zhifang Zhang

Abstract

In current, Agrobacterium-mediated gene transferring is one of major methods used in genetic transformation of plants. This paper systematically reviewed the effect on plant transformation efficiency based on the introduction of the principle of this transformation, comparison among different kinds of Agrobacterium strains and the development to transformation vectors. In addition, the newly progresses on the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of dicotyledonous and monocotyledons species transformation were also discussed, respectively.
