벼는 임성 식물체의 재분화 뿐만 아니라 유전적으로 안정된 형질전환 식물체를 얻을 수 있는 가장 성공적인 단자엽 식물중 하나이다. 그러나 우리나라에서는 아직 유전적으로 안정된 임성 형질전환 벼품종에 대한 보고가 없었다. 본 연구에서 우리나라의 재배종인 낙동벼로부터 임성 형질전환식물체를 얼을 수 있음을 증명하였다. 현탁뱅양세포로부터 분리된 원형질체를 이용하여 PEG로 HPT와 GUS Plasmids늘 함께 형질전환시켰다. 다섯번의 실험을 통하여 hygromycin 저항성 캘러스는 평균 1.73%이였다. 소식물체는 항생제 저항성 캘러스로부터 재분화되었고 식물체 재분화효율은 약 27%이었다. 항생제에 저항성이 있는 캘러스에서 GUS 유전자가 발현되는 캘러스는 평균 35%였다. R0형질전환식물체는 성숙 개화하여 Rl 종자를 생성하였다. Rl 종자와 유모의 해부학적 GUS 활성을 분석하여 CaMV35S 프로모터 의해 GUS 유전자가 적절히 발현되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 우리는 Rl세대에서 HPT유전자가 멘델 법칙에 따라 유전됨을 확인하였다

The plastid transformation approach offers a number of unique advantages, including high-level transgene expression, multi-gene engineering, transgene containment, and a lack of gene silencing and position effects. The extension of plastid transformation technology to monocotyledonous cereal crops, including rice, bears great promise for the improvement of agronomic traits, and the efficient production of pharmaceutical or nutritional enhancement. Here, we report a promising step towards stable plastid transformation in rice. We produced fertile transplastomic rice plants and demonstrated transmission of the plastidexpressed green fluorescent protein (GFP) and aminoglycoside 3′-adenylyltransferase genes to the progeny of these plants. Transgenic chloroplasts were determined to have stably expressed the GFP, which was confirmed by both confocal microscopy and Western blot analyses. Although the produced rice plastid transformants were found to be heteroplastomic, and the transformation efficiency requires further improvement, this study has established a variety of parameters for the use of plastid transformation technology in cereal crops.

Plants expressing Agrobacterium sp. strain CP4 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (CP4 EPSPS) are known to be resistant to glyphosate, a potent herbicide that inhibits the activity of the endogenous plant EPSPS. In order to develop herbicide-resistant rice, we prepared transgenic rice plants with CP4 EPSPS gene under the control of CaMV 35S promoter for over-expression. A recombinant plasmid was transformed into rice via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. A large number of transgenic rice plants were obtained with glyphosate and most of the transformants showed fertile. The integration and expression of CP4 EPSPS gene from regenerated plants was analyzed by Southern and northern blot analysis. The transgenic rice plants had CP4 EPSPS enzyme activity levels more than 15-fold higher than the wild-type plants. EPSPS enzyme activity of transgenic rice plants was also identified by strip-test method. Field trial of transgenic rice plants further confirmed that they can be selectively survived at 100% by spay of glyphosate (Roundup$^{(R)}$) at a regular dose used for conventional rice weed control.
