Agrobacterium mediated genetic transformation and regeneration in elite rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivar BRRI dhan56

Improved, Efficient and Reliable Plant Regeneration Protocol for a Recalcitrant Black Rice (Oryza sativa cv. Chakhao amubi)

“…Standardisation of protocols for effective regeneration and transformation systems for various crops has proven to be a challenging task, and biotechnology interventions for crop breeding have established an advantage over conventional approaches. Although, there are manyplant regeneration protocols for white rice are well established (11)(12)(13)(14), but studies on in vitro culture and regeneration in black rice are very scarce. Attempts to develop a tissue culture-based methodology for regenerating black rice plants from calluses have so far either failed or produced extremely low regeneration frequencies.…”
