Fig. 2. Rice transformation mediated by Agrobaterium tumefaciens EHA105/pYP1203E and the results of GUS (ß-D-glucuronidase) histochemical analysis and herbicide-resistance test of transgenic rice plants. (A) Regenerated resistant shoots on RE2–CH50 medium. (B) Regenerated shoots and roots on 1/2MSNH50 medium (Left is the nontransformed control shoots). (C) Transgenic plants carrying the five transgenes putatively growing in soil in the greenhouse. (D) T1 progeny of transgenic Qiufeng carrying the five transgenes. (E) The roots and leaf of transgenic rice plants and the hygromycin-resistent calli (right) compared with the nontransformed control (left). (F) The leaves of transgenic rice plants (right) and the nontransformed control (left) after daubing with 5.0 mM glyphosate solution. (G) Transgenic plants (right) and the nontransformed control (left) after spraying with the equivalent of 13 g ha–1 glyphosate.
