Study on Hypocotyl-based Agrobacterium-mediated Transformation of Soybean

The study successfully transformed the soybean blue light receptor gene promoter pGmPLP1 into soybean genome by hypocotyl-based Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method,and the gene was steady expressed in progenies.Also the comparison between cultivar Heinong 44 transformed by cotyledon nodes and hypocotyls was conducted.The results showed that the cultivars that cannot efficiently transformed by cotyledon nodes method could successfully transformed by hypocotyl method.
