Abstract
We report here the effect of antibiotics on the regeneration potential of recalcitrant indica rice cultivar, IR64. Different protocols reporting high-efficiency agro-bacterium-mediated transformation of mature seed-derived regenerative calli were used and compared. The putative transgenic (T0) plants were analyzed for integration of the transgene through polymerase chain reaction and Southern blotting analyses. It was observed that the high-efficiency transformation of scutellar-derived regenerative calli could be obtained by using maltose as a carbon source and increased quantity of 2,4-D on a medium containing a higher concentration of gelling agent. The percentage of regeneration is greatly affected by the presence of antibiotics.
