摘要
Studies were carried out to optimize the conditions for transient gene expression through particle bombardment on Carrizo citrange (Citrus sinensis x Poncirus trifoliata) thin epicotyl sections. The best conditions,for transient GUS expression were: M-25 tungsten particles, 1550 psi helium pressure, 9 cm distance between specimen and DNA/particle holder and culture of explants in a high osmolarity medium (0.2 M mannitol + 0.2 M sorbitol) 4 h prior and 20 h of er bombardment. Under these conditions, an average of 102 blue spots per bombardment (20 explants/plate) were achieved. This protocol is currently being used for transformation of Carrizo citrange and sweet orange (Citrus sinensis).
