In order to improve the transformation frequency of waxy maize, in this study, shoot tips and immature embryo-derived callus of Lainongnuo 38 were collected as receptor materials, to compare the effects of pH in suspension medium, addition modes and concentrations of acetosyringone on genetic transformation of waxy maize. Results showed that adding 2 μl of 150 μmol/L AS in the wound with suspension medimn at pH 5.2 can significantly improve the transformation frequency of shoot tips of waxy maize; in genetic transformation of maize callus, adding 5 mg/L AS in infection solution can significantly improve the percentage of resistant callus.展开更多
