Definitions

  • Ti-piasmids still contain the border sequences and consequently transfer T-DNA without tumor induction.
  • An example of such a Ti-plasmid derived vector for plant engineering is pGV 3850.
  • This Ti-derivative has proven very useful. It contains a substitution of the internal T-DNA genes by the commonly used cloning vehicle pBR322. Plant cells transformed by pGV 3850 have the same regenerative capacity as untransformed cells and several procedures have been developped to obtain intact plants which contain the pGV 3850 T-DNA.
  • pGV 3850, through the pBR 322 sequences present in its T-DNA, is an efficient acceptor plasmid for gene transfer experiments in plant cells (see European patent application No. 0 116 718).
  • genes cloned in pBR 322-like plasmids are transfered to Agrobacterium and inserted via homologous recombination into the pGV 3850 T-DNA in a single experimental step.
  • Another major advance in the application of T-DNA as a vector is the use of plant regulatory sequences to express chimeric genes in plants.
  • These chimeric genes contain a promotor region derived from a gene which is naturally expressed in plant cells, the sequence to be expressed, and preferentially a 3'-non-translated region containing a poly-adenylation site of a gene which is naturally expressed in plant cells.
  • a promotor region derived from a gene which is naturally expressed in plant cells
  • the sequence to be expressed and preferentially a 3'-non-translated region containing a poly-adenylation site of a gene which is naturally expressed in plant cells.
  • dominant selectable markers for plant cells have been constructed.
  • the genes involved in the synthesis of opines are encoded by the T-DNA of Agrobacterium, but the regulatory sequences involved in their expression are of an eucaryotic type. This explains why these genes are expressed in a plant environment.
  • the observation of the presence of opines in the wound tissue of infected monocotyledonous plants suggested at least a temporarily transfer and expression of Ti-plasmid genes into the monocotyledonous plant.
  • these data did not provide any prove for stable transfer of Ti- plasmid DNA into the plant cell. The investigators did not show the monocot tissue to produce opines after sub-culture under aseptical conditions.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a process for preparing transformed monocotyledonous plant cells which are genetically stable.
  • a further object of the invention is the preparation of genetically transformed monocotyledonous plant cells as well as plants regenerated therefrom.
  • the present invention relates to a process for preparing transformed plant cells which are genetically stable comprising the transformation of plant cells using Agrobacterium harbouring a hybrid Ti-plasmid vector, characterized in that the plant cells are derived from a monocotyledonous plant.
  • the invention makes use of hybrid Ti-plasmids such as those described in European Patent Application No. 0116718. These are Ti-plasmids, from which the oncogenic genes or tumor inducing genes have been removed from the T-DNA.
  • Ti-plasmids can be used which contain a gene of interest operatively linked to a suitable oromoter, e.g. the nopaline-synthase-promoter. Such a combination is also called a chimeric gene.
  • these plasmids contain chimeric antibiotic resistance genes, which provide a dominant selectable marker for plant cells.

  • the 290 bp Bcll-Bglll fragment containing the nopaline synthase promoter (Pnos) was purified from a 2 % agarose gel by electroelution and inserted into pKM109-2 (ref. 7 ) .
  • One of the resulting recombinants, pLGVneo011 contains the Pnos fragment in the orientation such that it will direct transcription of the neomycin phosphotransferase gene (neo) in plant cells.
  • the orientation was determined by SacII-EcoRI digestion.
  • Step 3 Insertion of the 3' end of the octopine synthase gene behind the neo gene.
  • a fragment containing the 3' untranslated region of the octopine synthase gene was isolated from pGV99 (ref. 8 )) . This was achieved by digesting 20 ⁇ g of pGV99 DNA with 20 units of PvuII for 1 h at 37° C, separation of the fragments on a 0.8 % agarose gel and isolation of the 706 bp PvuII fragment by electroelution. The 706 bp PvuII fragment was inserted into the Smal site of pLGVneo011. One of the resulting recombinant plasmids, pLGVneo11 contains the PvuII fragment in the correct orientation with respect to the neo gene.
  • pLGVneo1103 contains a chimeric neo gene consisting of the nopaline synthase promoter, the coding region of the neo gene and the 3' end of the octopine synthase gene, including the polyadenylation signal. The advantage of this chimeric neo gene over the one previously described (ref.

  • Plant cells of Asparagus officinalis L.cv. (Ruhm v. Braunschweig) transformed with an oncogenic Ti-plasmid (e.g. C58) were prepared.
  • the procedure involves the following steps:
  • steps 1 to 10 Using this procedure (steps 1 to 10), a tissue culture line which grows vigorously on hormone-free media was obtained. Testing for nopaline in this tissue as described (steps 11 - 16) shows that it indeed produces significant levels of nopaline (see Fig. 3). It was concluded that T-DNA promoters are active in these cells, with an efficiency comparable to that found in dicots . Genes for hormone independent growth are also expressed since the transformed cells proliferate on hormone free culture medium. The presence of T-DNA in the transformed cell line was further demonstrated by Southern blot analysis of total DNA established from the cell cultures, using cloned T-DNA fragments as radioactive probes. The procedure involves the following steps:
  • Plant cells of Asparagus officinalis L. cv. "Ruhm v. Braunschweig” transformed with a non-oncogenic Ti-plasmid derivative (eg. pGV2302) were prepared.
  • the hybrid Ti-plasmid used in this experiment and carrying a gene of interest was pGV2302.
  • This plasmid is a derivative of pGV3850 which is described in European Patent Application No. 0116718 and was obtained as follows. According to the method of Van Haute et al. (ref. 11) helper plasmids were transferred from GJ23 cells to E. coli K514r-m + containing pGLVneo1103 (for detailed description see below).
  • pGLVneo1103 can also be transferred to the helper plasmid containing GJ23 cells.
  • pGLVneo1103 is mobilized during conjugation from the bacteria strain containing the helper plasmids as well as pGLVneo 1103 to Agrobacterium tumefaciens C 58 C 1 Rif R pGV3850 which carries the hybrid Ti-plasmid pGV3850 (ref. 18). This plasmid transfer is followed by an in vivo recombination event in the recipient strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
  • the result is the recombinant plasmid pGV2302 which carries the genetic information for rifampycin and kanamycin resistance (see Fig. 2) .
  • the strain C 58 C 1 Rif R pGV2302 of Agrobacterium tumefaciens carrying plasmid pGV2302 and the strain of E. coli carrying the plasmid pGLVneo1103 were deposited with the Deutsche Sammlung fiir Mikroorganismen, Göttingen, West Germany, under the accession numbers DSM 3168 and DSM 3169, respectively.
  • pLGVneo1103 (a detailed description of the construction is given in Fig. 1) is an intermediate vector which contains a chimeric gene consisting of the promoter of the nopaline synthase gene (Depicker et al., ref. 14 ), the coding region of the neomycin phosphotransferase gene of Tn5, and the 3' terminal sequences of the octopine synthase gene (Dhaese et al., ref. 1 5 ).
  • the procedure involves the following steps:
  • the calli are about 1 cm in diameter. Devide the calli in pieces of approx. 5 mm diameter and transfer them in 5 cm petridishes containing LS medium with 1 mg/1 BAP, 1 mg/1 NAA, 200 mg/1 glutamine, 250 mg/1 cefotaximum, and 50 mg/1 kanamycin sulfate (Sigma). Use one dish per original callus. Kanamycin sulfate was prepared as a stock solution at 50 mg/ml in distilled water and the pH was adjusted to 5,7 with HCl. The solution was filter-sterilized. The pH of the medium at the moment of its use was 5.7.
  • steps 1 - 11 2 independent tissue culture lines which grow vigorously on media containing 50 mg/1 kanamycin sulfate were obtained. Testing for nopaline in these tissues as described (steps 12 - 17) indicated that both of them indeed produce significant levels of nopaline (see Fig. 3).
  • kanamycin resistant and nopaline containing plants were regenerated from two of the transformed asparagus plants and transferred to the greenhouse.
