Abstract
The basidiomycete Lyophyllum decastes was transformed by means of particle bombardment. We isolated five transformants under twelve conditions differing in the two parameters of target distance and helium pressure. The transformation frequency was one transformant/ μg DNA. In the transformants, plasmid DNAs were integrated into the genomic DNA and stably maintained. This is the first report on transformation of L. decastes by particle bombardment.
