Production of transgenic periclinal chimeras in pumpkin - a tool for revealing cell fates of L1 meristem.
Plant Biology 2023 November 18
Genetic engineering is commonly used to improve the agronomic traits of crops. However, genetic transformation in pumpkin remains a challenge. Conducting transformation trials, we accidentally created transgenic L1 periclinal chimeras in pumpkins. Using our modified Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, we generated transgenic L1 periclinal chimeras which have high value in research on development of the meristem. Fluorescence observations of transformed L1 cells enabled us to reveal cell fates. These L1 cells can develop into stomata, epidermal hairs, seed coat, and epidermis of the root, stem, leaf, flower, and fruit. These periclinal chimeras can be propagated vegetatively with minimal risk of transgene flow. This study offers new perspectives on development of the meristem and a promising technique for creating transgenic periclinal chimeras in plants.
