چکیده

Agrobacterium strains were isolated from five different leguminous plants viz., Pisum sativum, Sesbania rostrata, Vigna mungo, V. radita and V. ungiculata. The isolated bacteria was characterized and identified as Agrobacterium rhizogenes based on their morphological, biochemical, cultural and pathogenicity tests. Antibiogram and protein profile of isolates were also studied by disc diffusion and SDS-PAGE methods respectively, these studies showed lot of variations in sensitivity pattern of different A. rhizogenes to different antibiotics and electrophorogram of proteins.

Essential Oils from Hairy Root Cultures and Field Cultivated Roots of Valerian (Valeriana sisymbriifolium)

Background: Plant cell cultivations are considered as an alternative to agricultural processes for producing valuable phytochemicals (secondary metabolites). The use of plant cell cultures has overcome several inconveniences for the production of secondary metabolites. Objective: The essential oils isolated from roots of 24-month-old field grown valerian (Valeriana sisymbriifolium) and hairy r...

Expression of a complete soybean leghemoglobin gene in root nodules of transgenic Lotus corniculatus.

The complete soybean leghemoglobin lbc(3) gene was transferred into the legume Lotus corniculatus using an Agrobacterium rhizogenes vector system. Organ-specific expression of the soybean gene was observed in root nodules formed on regenerated transgenic plants after infection with Rhizobium loti. The primary transcript was processed in the same way as in soybean nodules and the resulting mRNA ...
