In an effort to optimize tissue culture conditions for genetic transformation of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), an efficient and high-frequency plant regeneration system from seed-derived calli was established. Embryogenic calli induced on MS medium containing 3mg/L 2,4-D and 0.1mg/L BA had significantly improved regeneration ability. Plant regeneration rate was 92％ when embryogenic calli were cultured on N6 medium supplemented with 1mg/L 2,4-D and 3mg/L BA. Among three kinds of medium, MS and N6 medium were optimal for embryogenic callus induction and plant regeneration, respectively. Ho difference in callus induction frequency was observed among four cultivars of orchardgrass, however, "Roughrider" cultivar showed higher regenerability with the frequency of 61％. Addition of maltose to the regeneration medium as a carbon source dramatically increased regeneration frequency up to 69％. A short tissue culture period and high-frequency regeneration system would be beneficial for molecular breeding of orchardgrass through genetic transformation.

This study was conducted to determine the optimal concentrations of plant hormones (2,4-D, picloram, dicamba, NAA, kinetin) and the suitable explants among seeds, hypocotyl, and cotyledons on calls formation and plant regeneration of stevia(Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni). The frequency of cellus formation was higher in the young leaf-explants then the older ones, and in the seeds then the hypocotyls and cotyledons on MS medium with 1mg/L 2,4-D. After transfer of seed-derived stevia callus producing embryogenic callus on plant-regeneration medium, the frequency of plant regeneration from callus was 23.8% in MS medium with 1mg/L NAA and 3mg/L kinetin.

Mature embryo and leaf base segment of Korean oat were used as materials in an experiment to check plant regeneration efficiency. MS media supplemented with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), kinetin, and picloram were used for callus induction from mature embryos and leaf base segments. Three mg/l of 2,4­D and 3 mg/l of picloram in callus induction medium showed high frequency for plant regeneration from mature embryos. Leaf base segments were transferred to callus induction medium and incubated at $25^{\circ}C$ in 16/8 hr light/dark cycle for 3 weeks. Callus induction from leaf base segments of Malgwiri showed high efficiency in medium containing 3 mg/l of 2,4-D and 1 mg/l of kinetin $(91.8\%)$. In case of Samhangwiri, the combinations of phytohormones did not show significant difference. Regeneration from leaf base segments showed high frequency in shoot medium containing 1 mg/l of antiauxin, tri-iodobenzoic acid (TIBA) and 1 mg/l of 6-benzyladenine (BA). Calli induced from leaf base segments of Samhangwiri and Malgwiri in media containing 3 mg/l of 2,4-D and 3 mg/l of picloram showed high regeneration frequency. It appears that the callus initiation medium may be an important factor for subsequent plant regeneration.

Development of herbicide resistant transgenic legume plants through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation has been worked in many previous studied. Plant regeneration after infection is the important step to obtain successful transgenic plants. Many attempts try to find the optimum media condition for plant regeneration after infection. However, the transformation efficiency of legume plants is still low. In this study, regeneration of some Korean legume species including two soybean cultivars (Dawon and Pungsan) and pea have been done with organogenesis which is used various kind of explants such as cotyledonary-nodes in soybean and bud-containing tissue in pea. We developed the optimum media condition for plant regeneration regulators under Agrobacterium-mediated transformation using different kind and various concentration of plant growth. As the results, B5 medium containing 2 mg/L of 6-benzylaminopurine was selected in this study for the optimum plant regeneration media. The segments were inoculated with Agrobacterium suspension harbored an IG2 vector containing bar gene which confers resistance to phosphinotricin (PPT) in 3, 5 and 7 days. The transformation efficiency was achieved in Dawon 3.03 % and pea 1.46 % with co-cultivation period of 7 days which is showed a high number of GUS positive expression period.

A system was established for induction of multi-shoots and plant regeneration from mesophyll protoplasts of alfalfa, Medicago sativa L. cv. Vernal. Different hormonal effects were tested at each step of protoplast culture, i.e. cell division in modified Kao's liquid medium (K566-7). calli formation on SH semi solid medium, and multi-shoot regeneration from calli on SHa and SHb solid media. Frequency of multi-shoots and plant regeneration was affected by various combinations of phytohormones in final step. The evaluation of multi-shoots induction systems via protoplast culture was discused.

The halophyte Leymus chinensis (Trin.) is a perennial rhizome grass (tribe Gramineae) that is widely distributed throughout China, Mongolia and Siberia. This study was conducted to investigate an optimal condition for plant regeneration from mature seeds, leaf base segments, and root segments in L. chinensis. Plant growth regulators affecting embryogenic callus induction and plant regeneration were investigated by four-factor-three-level [L9 (34)] orthogonal test in this study. The effects of explants types (mature seeds, leaf base segments and root segments), callus types, medium types were examined in this study. Wild type (WT) and Jisheng No. 1 plants (JS) were used for primary callus induction. A clear explants difference was seen during callus induction; mature seeds were considered as the preferred explants; and the highest frequency of callus induction was obtained in Medium 6 using mature seeds as explants in WT. Plant regeneration ability was evaluated by frequencies of green callus forming, shooting, rooting, and shooting with roots. Effect of α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) on shoot regeneration was remarkable with the highest frequency of 70.8% in WT after 2-month culture. The medium with 0.2- 0.5 mg/L NAA was found to have the highest shoot induction. All regenerated shoots were successfully rooted when transferred on half-strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium. The acclimatized plantlets were grown to mature with flowering and seeds setting in green house conditions.

The effect of plant growth regulators and gelling agents for plant regeneration from leaf segment of Chrysanthemum zawadskii ssp. coreanum was investigated. NAA was more effective than BA for plant regeneration. MS medium supplemented with NAA 1 mg/L was the most effective in plant regeneration. The effect of agar and gelite as gelling agent was compared. Agar(0.8%) was more effective than gelite(0.2%) in plant regeneration. Regenerated shoots was successfully increased by shoot grafting in MS medium supplemented with NAA 0.1 mg/L in vitro, and hardened by shoot grafting in artificial soil mix(Peatmoss : Perlite = 1 : 1).

An efficient and reproducible plant regeneration system was established using transverse thin cell layers (tTCLs) in five cultivars of Brassjca juncea L. The effects of medium conditions, explant types (tTCLs of hypcotyl and cotyledonary petiole) on shoot regeneration were examined in this study. The maximum shoot regeneration frequency was obtained in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 4 mg/L 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) and 0.2 mg/L 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). The hypocotyls derived tTCL explants had more shoot regeneration frequency (52%) than the cotyledonary petiole derived tTCL explants. Shoot induction was further improved by the addition of silver nitrate ($AgNO_3$) in the regeneration medium. A significant genotypic effect was also observed between the five cultivars; Rai-5 displayed higher capacities to produce shoots than other cultivars. Regenerated shoots were rooted on MS basal medium without PGRs which induced 90% of roots. The plantlets established in greenhouse conditions with 99% survival, flowered normally and set seeds. The regenerated plants were fertile and identical to source plants.

This study was conducted to improve the regeneration efficiency from seed-derived calli of rice by optimizing the copper concentrations in the media. Mature seeds were cultured on MS medium supplemented with copper sulphate (0 to 5.0 mg/L) and 2 mg/L 2,4-D. Callus growth was influenced by the levels of copper sulphate containing with medium, The addition of copper sulphate (2.5 mg/L) in regeneration medium enhanced dramatically the ability of plant regeneration from seed-derived calli. The mean frequency of plant regeneration of 6 indica rices was 27.4% on medium containing copper sulphate, whereas that of the cultivars on copper-free medium was 2.4%. These results suggest that copper sulphate may have an important role in improving regeneration ability of indica rices.

Plant somatic cells can be reprogrammed into a pluripotent cell mass, called callus, which can be subsequently used for de novo shoot regeneration through a two-step in vitro tissue culture method. MET1-dependent CG methylation has been implicated in plant regeneration in Arabidopsis, because the met1-3 mutant exhibits increased shoot regeneration compared with the wild-type. To understand the role of MET1 in de novo shoot regeneration, we compared the genome-wide DNA methylomes and transcriptomes of wildtype and met1-3 callus and leaf. The CG methylation patterns were largely unchanged during leaf-to-callus transition, suggesting that the altered regeneration phenotype of met1-3 was caused by the constitutively hypomethylated genes, independent of the tissue type. In particular, MET1-dependent CG methylation was observed at the blue light receptor genes, CRYPTOCHROME 1 (CRY1) and CRY2, which reduced their expression. Coexpression network analysis revealed that the CRY1 gene was closely linked to cytokinin signaling genes. Consistently, functional enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes in met1-3 showed that gene ontology terms related to light and hormone signaling were overrepresented. Overall, our findings indicate that MET1-dependent repression of light and cytokinin signaling influences plant regeneration capacity and shoot identity establishment.
