TL;DR: A reproducible system for the generation of fertile, transgenic maize plants has been developed and activity of the enzyme phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT) encoded by bar were confirmed in all bialaphos-resistant callus lines.

TL;DR: In this article, a reproducible system for the production of stable, genetically transformed maize cells, and to methods of selecting cells that have been transformed, is described. But the system is not applicable to the field of agriculture.

TL;DR: In this article, a maize transformant is identified in which the phosphinothricin acetyltransferase gene integration event is correlated with increased yield, and a method of transferring said increased yield phenotype to other lines of plants by crossing is presented.

TL;DR: The interaction between tungsten and gold microprojectiles with suspension-culture cells of maize used for genetic transformation and the effects of particle bombardment on embryogenic and nonembryogenic cells are investigated.
