Abstract

The aim of the research was to create an effective method for producing transgenic wheat plants suitable for a wide range of promising varieties, both spring and winter crops. The plant material was cultivated at temperatures ranging from 4 to 25°C, either in the dark or in the light, with a 16-hour photoperiod (16/8 - day / night). Osram L36/77 FLUORA and F36W/33 Cool White lamps were used for lighting. The composition of all nutrient media included macroand micro-salts, vitamins B5, phytohormones and carbohydrates. The pH of the medium was adjusted to 5.8 before autoclaving. The medium was sterilized in an autoclave at pressure of 1.2 atmospheres for 15 minutes. An effective method of regeneration of transgenic wheat plants for ballistic transformation has been developed. Plants obtained by this method are phenotypically normal and fully fertile. The transgenic insertion of the target gene is transmitted to the offspring in accordance with Mendel’s laws. The transformation efficiency was high for all the studied varieties and ranged from 1.4 to 7.8%.
