Title - Method of Genetically Transforming Banana Plants
| Claim 1
A method of producing a transformed banana plant comprising transforming
banana embryogenic material from inflorescences with Agrobacterium
containing a gene of interest and regenerating a transformed banana plant from
the transformed embryogenic material.
|
| Claim 7
A method of producing a transformed banana plant comprising transforming a
banana somatic embryo from inflorescences with Agrobacterium
containing a gene of interest and regenerating a transformed banana plant from
the transformed somatic embryo.
|
| Claim 11
A method of genetically transforming banana, the method comprising: A)
culturing somatic banana plant tissue from inflorescences in a medium to obtain
at least one somatic embryo structure or pro-embryo structure;
B) culturing
the somatic embryo or pro-embryo structure in a medium to obtain embryogenic
material;
C) transforming the embryogenic material with
Agrobacterium cells having at least one exogenous DNA sequence to
produce transformed embryogenic material;
D) culturing the transformed
embryogenic material in a medium to produce at least one transformed somatic
embryo; and
E) germinating the transformed somatic embryo in a medium to
produce a mature plantlet capable of being transferred to soil conditions.
|
| Claim 19
A method of genetically transforming banana, the method comprising:
A)
culturing somatic banana plant tissue from inflorescences in a medium to obtain
at least one somatic embryo structure or pro-embryo structure;
B) culturing
the somatic embryo or pro-embryo structure in a medium to obtain embryogenic
material;
C) culturing the embryogenic material in a medium to produce at
least one somatic embryo;
D) transforming the somatic embryo produced in
step (c) with Agrobacterium cells having at least one exogenous DNA
sequence to produce transformed somatic embryos;
E) multiplying the
transformed somatic embryo to produce additional transformed somatic embryos;
and
F) germinating the transformed somatic embryo to produce a mature
plantlet capable of being transferred to soil conditions.

The invention claimed in Australia is similar to the related United States
patent but the embryogenic material is not from a specific part of a banana
plant.

The claims as filed in the European application recite the same as the claims
granted in the United States patent US 6133035 with the
exception of claim 7, where a banana somatic embryo is
not limited to an embryo derived from an inflorescence.

having a gene of interest. Multiplication of transformed somatic embryos and
production of plantlets capable of being transferred to soil conditions.
