چکیده

This is the first evidence on successful Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated genetic transformation of two species from the genus Hypericum, H. tomentosum L. and H. tetrapterum Fries. Hairy root cultures were induced from root segments of both Hypericum species by two agropine wild-type strains of A. rhizogenes, ATCC 15834 and A4. The transgenic character of the hairy root cultures was proved by PCR amplification of the rolABCD genes. In some H. tetrapterum transgenic lines aux genes were detected as well.

A Perspective on Hypericum perforatum Genetic Transformation

Hypericum perforatum (St John's wort) is a reservoir of diverse classes of biologically active and high value secondary metabolites, which captured the interest of both researchers and the pharmaceutical industry alike. Several studies and clinical trials have shown that H. perforatum extracts possess an astounding array of pharmacological properties. These properties include antidepressant, an...

Effect of the number of rol genes integrations on phenotypic variation in hairy root-derived Hypericum perforatum L. plants.

The extent of phenotypic variation of St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) plants transformed with wild agropine ATCC 15834 Agrobacterium rhizogenes plasmid was evaluated with respect to the number of rol genes integrations. The transfer of T(L)-DNA to plant explants during each transformation event was incomplete with different rolA, rolB, and rolC copy numbers. Along with typical feature...

Phenolic Acids and Flavonoids in Hypericum Perforatum L. Hairy Roots

Investigations have been made to develop an efficient protocol for identification and quantification of phenolic acids and flavonoids in hairy roots (HR) of Hypericum perforatum L. HR were induced from root segments of in vitro grown seedlings from H. perforatum, after co-cultivation with Agrobacterium rhizogenes A4. Transgenic status of HR was confirmed by PCR analysis using rolB specific prim...

Agrobacterium Rhizogenes-mediated Transformation of Peganum multisectum (Maxim) Bobrov and Harmine Production in Hairy Roots

Using Agrobacterium rhizogenes due to create hairy roots is a useful method to product secondary metabolites in many medicinal plants. The transgenic hairy roots were induced from Peganum multisectum (Maxim) Bobrov a medicinally important species, by infecting leaf and stem explant with wild type Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain ATTCC 15834, which led to the induction of hairy roots from 19% of ...
