To produce of transgenic orchardgrass, the seed-derived calli of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) co-cultivated with Agrobacterium turnefaciens EHAlOl harboring binary vector pIG121-Hm were selected with hygromycin and then transferred onto N6 regener

To increase thennotolerance of forage crops, transgenic rice plants as a model for transformation of monocots were generated. A cDNA encoding the chloroplast-localized small heat shock protein (small HSP) of rice, Oshsp21, was introduced into rice plants
