Abstract
The major parameters controlling DNA delivery to wheat (Triticum aestivum. L) by particle bombardment were investigated, with four wheat cultivars from Southwest area of China as target tissues. The results indicated that when spermidine and CaCl 2,the precipitants for coating particles, were replaced with PEG4000 and Ca (NO 3) 2 respectively, the frequency of GUS transient expression was improved significantly. The bombardment parameters for immature spikes and immature embryos were tuned, and it was found that the transformation frequency was relatively high when immature spikes pre cultured in vitro for 1 day was used as target tissues with the bombardment distance in 9cm, and immature embryos for 14 days with the bombardment distance in 12cm. In addition, the dosage of gold powder and DNA per bombardment was one of the key factors for the successful transformation. In this study, using 14 days pre cultured immature embryos as target tissues, 125μg gold powder coated by 0.5μg DNA was the best combination.
