Title - Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of
plants
Claim 1
A process to produce a dicotyledonous transgenic plant, said plant comprising
- a foreign DNA fragment integrated into the genome of at least some of its
cells, said process comprising the following steps:
1) providing a plant which is systemically infected with an
Agrobacterium strain auxotrophic for methionine or cysteine, or adenine
and histidine, harboring a DNA of interest which is operably linked to at least
one T-DNA border sequence; and 2) generating a transgenic plant from a
single cell or a group of cells isolated from said systemically infected plant.
|
Claim 11
Bacterial strain LBA4404metHV, deposited as LMG P-18486.
|
Claim 12
Bacterial strain ATHV ade,his, deposited as LMG P-18485.
|
Claim 13
A method for producing a transgenic plant, said plant comprising
- a foreign DNA fragment integrated into the genome of at least some of its
cells, said process comprising:
a. cocultivating a plant cell, plant tissue, explant or plant with an
Agrobacterium strain auxotrophic for methionine or cysteine, or for
adenine and histidine, to generate a transgenic cell; and b. regenerating a
transgenic plant from said transgenic cell.

US
6323396 B1 claims
- A process for the production of transgenic plants (Claims 1 and 13)
utilizing an Agrobacterium strain deficient in the biosynthesis of one
of the following:
- methionine
- cysteine
- adenosine and histidine
- Co-cultivating a plant or plant tissue with one of the auxotrophic
Agrobacterium mutants described above carrying a desired foreign DNA
and regenerating a transgenic plant from such a treated tissue (Claim 13).
- Systemically infecting a plant with one of the auxotrophic
Agrobacterium mutants described above carrying a desired foreign DNA
and regenerating a transgenic plant from such a treated tissue (Claim 1).
- Two auxotrophic Agrobacterium strains as described (Claims 11 and
12).

Title - Improved Agrobacterium-mediated
transformation of plants
Claim 1
A process to produce a transgenic plant comprising
- a foreign DNA fragment integrated into the genome of at least some of its
cells, said process comprising the following steps:
1) providing a plant which is systemically infected with an auxotrophic
Agrobacterium strains harbouring a DNA of interest which is operably
linked to at least one T-DNA border sequence; and 2) generating a
transgenic plant from a single cell or a group of cells isolated from said
systemically infected plant.

Claim 12
Bacterial strain LBA4404met.

Claim 13
Bacterial strain ATHVade, his.
|
Claim 14
The use of an Agrobacterium strain auxotrophic for methionine or
cysteine or for adenine and histidine in Agrobacterium-mediated
transformation of plants.
|
|
Claim 15 The use of Agrobacterium strain auxotrophic for
methionine or cysteine or for adenine and histidine in Agrobacterium
mediated transformation of callus from sugarbeet.
|
|
Claim 16 The use of Agrobacterium strain auxotrophic for
methionine or cysteine or for adenine and histidine in Agrobacterium
mediated transformation of corn protoplasts.
|
Claim 1 in granted AU 736349 does not have a limit to the
type of nutrient (or nutrients) the Agrobacterium strain is auxotrophic
for.
"Systemically infected plant" is defined in the specification as 'a plant
wherein the Agrobacterium strains is present in at least some part of the
plant'.
