It have been constructed transgenic rapeseeds plants containing crucifer
infecting tobamovirus movement protein gene. The crTMV 29K movement
protein gene was cloned into the plant expression vector pRT101, carrying
the 35S promoter and the polyA signal of CaMV strain Cabb B-D. Next step
was cloning the construction flanked by 35S promoter and polyA signal into
binary
Agrobacterium
vector for plant transformation. Resulting plasmid BL208
and binary vector alone were transferred to A. tumefaciense BPA1459 by
direct transformation. Restriction analysis of A.
tumefaciense-
purified BL208
plasmid confirmed the positive clones. 5-day age
B.napus L.
cotyledons
were transformed by BPA1459 containing BL208 or binary vector alone
(control plants). The regenerated, tranformed seedlings (Ro) ( frequency o f
regeneration is 10% ) were identified by the NPTII activity and by western
blot with 29K movement protein antibody. The transgenic plants in the
phytotron conditions have normal phenotype and fertility.The next step o f
this work w ill be the determination o f genetic status (copy number o f
insertions, the obtaining R1 plants) and the ir ability o f system ically
reproduction o f TMV Ul that can not be able to infect system ically
nontransgenic rapeseeds plants.
