Callus was induced from mature seeds on callus induction medium containing various 2,4- D : BA combinations and ph (5.5 or 5.7) at 25 C (a and c) or28 C (b and d). Four weeks later, the percentages of callus induction were calculated using the number of induced calli from seeds (a and b). After 8 weeks, the percentages of embryogenic callus induction were calculated using the number of embryogenic calli from all induced calli (c and d). Error bars represent standard errors of three replicates.

The regeneration potentials of 7 M. sinensis germplasms from Seoul National University (SNU) were compared with the commercially obtained seeds (Geumo). Embryogenic calli were cultured on regeneration medium for 4 weeks under white light condition. Embryogenic calli from different germplasms were differentiated into plantlets. Bar,1cm.

Embryogenic calli were inoculated with Agrobacterium suspensions, and co-cultured for 5 days on co-cultivation medium. After 6 weeks of incubation on selection medium containing 50 mg L -1 hygromycin, GFP expression on transformed calli (b, d, f, and h) was visualized under UV in dark room by using an Illumatool LT-9000 Bright Light system (Lightools Research, CA).

Differentiation of transformed calli into plantlets were dependent on selectable markers used. Shoot induction on medium containing herbicide was delayed compared with that on medium containing hygromycin. These pictures were taken approximately 6 weeks after incubation on shoot induction medium. Bar, 1 cm.
