Journal ArticleDOI
The ploidy level of transgenic plants in Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of tomato cotyledons ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is genotype and procedure dependent [corrected].
TL;DR: Results obtained in this work indicate the convenience of checking the ploidy level of the primary transformants before performing basic studies or introducing tomato transgenic material in a breeding program.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transfer of the yeast salt tolerance gene HAL1 to Cucumis melo L. cultivars and in vitro evaluation of salt tolerance.

TL;DR: An Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer method for production of transgenic melon plants has been optimized and succeeded in the transformation of leaf explants, and results are in accordance with the directional model of T-DNA transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant regeneration from calli of melon ( Cucumis melo L., cv. ‘Amarillo Oro’)
TL;DR: Melon tissues were able to undergo morphogenesis both via organogenesis and embryogenesis, depending on culture conditions and explant source, and it was possible to maintain organogenic callus lines for at least 12 months under defined conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The expression of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae HAL1 gene increases salt tolerance in transgenic watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsun. & Nakai.].
TL;DR: The halotolerance observed confirmed the inheritance of the trait and supports the potential usefulness of the HAL1 gene of S. cerevisiae as a molecular tool for genetic engineering of salt-stress protection in other crop species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant regeneration and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of cotyledon explants of Citrullus colocynthis (L.) Schrad.
TL;DR: Cotyledon explants were transformed by cocultivation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA4404 carrying the binary vector pBI121 which bears the reporter gene β-glucuronidase (gus) and the marker gene neomycin phosphotransferase (nptII) and transformed for growth capacity on medium with 100 mgl–1 of kanamycin.
