Genetic transformation - Agrobacterium
Agrobacterium tumefaciens (crown gall) and Agrobacterium rhizogenes (hairy root) are bacteria that form characteristic diseases in plants. Biologists take advantage of these bacteria as vectors to insert genes into plants. This technology is a common strategy for transformation of cells for genetic engineering.

The Agrobacterium plasmid is a circular piece of DNA that the bacterium uses to insert its genes into the plant's genome. In nature, the bacterium inserts genes that cause the plant to make a tumor and produce novel amino acids for the bacterium to use.

The biologist develops a gene construct that will eventually be expressed in the transgenic plant. The new gene usually has a section that allows for the selection of transformed cells along with the new gene of interest (like herbicide resistance or flower color).

Plasmid
Plant cell
The Agrobacterium plasmid infects the plant cell and places the gene of interest into the plant's DNA in the nucleus. If this is done properly, the new gene will be expressed in the transformed plant.

The new gene from the plasmid is integrated on to a section of the chromosome and even though it is a foreign gene it can be expressed as if it were part of the plant’s genome.

Usually the transformed cells are separated from non-transformed cells in tissue culture. This means that adventitious shoots must be regenerated from the transformed and micropropagated to get a whole plant that expresses the new genes.

Genetic transformation – Agrobacterium Steps in a transformation protocol
Step 1. Make gene construct that includes gene of interest; a selectable resistance gene and an appropriate gene promoter sequence. Step 2. Place new gene in Agrobacterium vector. Step 3. Infect plant tissue. This may be an organ like a cotyledon or leaf disc or it may be callus. Step 4. Select cells that have been transformed. This can be accomplished because along with the gene of interest, a resistance gene has been included as a selectable marker. This is usually resistance to an antibiotic or a herbicide. Step 5. Regenerate shoots from transformed cells through a micropropagation system. Step 6. New whole plants usually become part of a standard breeding program, where the novel gene is used to create commercial introductions.

Genetic transformation - Arabidopsis
Arabidopsis is the most important model system in plant science. Its entire genome has been mapped and many of the important genes in this plant have been identified. Molecular genetic studies with Arabidopsis have already identified many gene functions in plants. Molecular genetics relies on sexual crosses mutagenesis and genetic transformation to identify genes.

Arabidopsis transformation relies on Agrobacterium-mediated gene insertion except that there is no tissue culture step. In this case, whole plants will be exposed to Agrobacterium with the hope that the developing seeds will be genetically transformed. The next several pages shows how this is done.

In preparation for transformation, Agrobacterium cells are grown in culture. These cells contain the plasmid with the new genes that will be placed into the Arabidopsis plants.

A bathing solution is made from the suspension of Agrobacterium cells. This will serve as the medium into which the Arabidopsis plants will be treated.

Inside the developing flowers are the ovules that will become the seeds. The Agrobacterium cells can infect this part of the Arabidopsis plant and transfer the genes to the growing seed embryo. A percentage of these seeds will contain the new gene.

The actual procedure is very simple. The Arabidopsis plants at the appropriate stage of flower development are inverted and submerged into the Agrobacterium suspension to permit infection.

After treating the plants for the appropriate amount of time to permit infection, the plants are removed form the suspension and moved to the greenhouse or growth chamber to allow seed set. Mature seeds are harvested and tested to uncover those seedlings that have been genetically transformed.

Genetic transformation – Gene gun
One technique used to engineer or transform plant tissue is with a gene gun. Technically, this is call biolistics. The gene gun pictured here is used to "shoot" genes into plant cells.

The technician places the target tissue into the gene gun. The target tissue might be a developing cotyledon, seed tissue, or even callus. Once the new gene is inserted in the tissue it will have to be isolated from cells that were not transformed and then new shoots regenerated in a micropropagation system.

You can use the indicator gene called GUS to see which cells become transformed after using the gene gun. The GUS gene codes for an enzyme that turns a chemical substrate blue in the tissue. Each blue spot represents a plant cell that has been transformed.
