Abstract
Micropropagation and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation were developed in Kalmia latifolia cv. Ostbo Red. The transformation of Kalmia latifolia plants was carried out by an Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain containing the nptII and gusA genes in its T-DNA. Shoots were regenerated on kanamycin selection medium and the expression of the gusA reporter gene was verified by fluorogenic β-glucuronidase (GUS) assay in a few vegetative generations after regeneration. The presence of the gusA gene in regenerated kanamycin resistant plants was detected by polymerase chain reaction.
