Establishing better lines and regenerating system of hairy roots of Isatis indigotica with Ri T-DNA / 第二军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective: To establish the culture system of hairy root of Isatis indigotica and to induce the regeneration plant of hairy root. Methods: Hairy root of Isatis indigotica was obtained from infected cotyledon explants after infection with Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains A4, R1601 and ATCC15834. The better lines were selected. The growth curve was surveyed and extrinsic factors affecting the growth of hairy roots were investigated. The regeneration plant was induced on MS media with different hormones. The transformation of Ri T DNA was examined through high voltage paper electrophoresis. Results: The hairy root was originally obtained from Isatis indigotica . The regeneration plant was induced on MS media with BA. The result of high voltage paper electrophoresis confirmed the transformation of T DNA from Ri plasmid to the hairy root and regeneration plant. Conclusion: The acquisition of hairy root of Isatis indigotica and regeneration plant of it lay a foundation for the production of active component and introduction of foreign gene. [
