Panicum virgatum is a Poaceae perennial herb. It is native to North America. It is low-cost to grow, fast-growing, highly productive for up to 15 years, and highly adaptable to the environment. Panicum virgatum is used as a forage, soil, and water conservation, as well as a windbreak plant, as well as a raw material for biofuels and the production of alternative energy sources. Therefore, Panicum virgatum is increasingly recognized as an energy plant for its high light energy utilization, high capacity efficiency and potential, and environmental friendliness.
Lifeasible is an industry-leading plant science and technology company. Relying on our advanced technology platform and experienced team of experts, we are committed to providing professional research solutions and personalized technical services to researchers in a wide range of fields, such as screening of good genes in plants, validation of gene function, genetic transformation of plants, and improvement of plant varieties. In Panicum virgatum genetic transformation, we select mature seeds of specific Panicum virgatum varieties for transformation and apply plant tissue culture technology to establish a highly efficient tissue culture system of Panicum virgatum, based on which we research Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of Panicum virgatum.
We used Agrobacterium-mediated transformation to obtain Panicum virgatum transgenic plants. In the genetic transformation of Panicum virgatum, sterilized sprouted seeds were used as transformation recipients, Agrobacterium transformation and co-culture were used, resistant shoots were screened in screening medium to obtain resistant shoots, and resistant shoots were cultured in rooting medium SMO to form seedlings, which were transplanted to greenhouses or fields for molecular biology methods, and screened according to molecular biology methods and target traits to obtain exogenous target-containing transgenic plants. The transgenic method we established for Panicum virgatum overcomes the shortcomings of the Agrobacterium-mediated method, which is highly dependent on tissue culture conditions, broadens the range of genotypes for genetic transformation, simplifies the transformation procedure, and provides a new pathway for the genetic improvement of Panicum virgatum by using transgenic technology.
Among various plants, grasses have complex genetic backgrounds and advanced evolution, making it difficult to establish their tissue culture and genetic transformation systems. Based on the problems faced in the genetic transformation of grass plants, we have established a platform for plant tissue culture and efficient genetic transformation after years of research, which can be used to detoxify and genetically transform a variety of grass plants, including Panicum virgatum, and has shown short transformation cycle and high transformation efficiency.
