Rose-scented geranium (Pelargonium sp.) generated by Agrobacterium rhizogenes mediated Ri-insertion for improved essential oil quality

Abstract: Transgenic plants of rose-scented geranium (Pelargonium graveolens cv. Hemanti) have been produced from Agrobacterium rhizogenes (strains A 4 and LBA9402) mediated hairy root cultures. Amongst the explants tested, leaves were most responsive followed by the petioles and internodal segments, respectively. The A 4 strain performed better for all the three explants both in terms of frequency of response and time requirement for hairy root induction. Transgenic shoots could be obtained by spontaneous regeneration … Show more

“…So far, hairy roots which grows rapidly with stable and comparatively high content in secondary metabolites, induced by genetic transformation of A. rhizogenes, were successfully used for the production of essential oils from medicinal or aromatic plants, such as Rose-scented geranium (Pelargonium sp.) (Saxena et al 2007), Plumbago indica (Gangopadhyay et al 2010) and Psoralea drupacea (Fabaceae) (Lystvan et al 2010) and for improvement and creation of germplasm for Nierembergia scoparia (Godo et al1997), Kalanchoe blossfeldiana (Christensen et al 2008) and Glycine max (Zia et al 2010). The transgenic plants also produced from hairy roots are usually non-chimeric because the hairy roots originate from single cells and each hairy root consists of uniformly transformed cells.…”

“…When kept under continuous light, the hairy roots were found to have an increased metabolite content and to develop greenish nodular buds. Shoots originating from hairy roots have been reported to exhibit an altered morphology, such as curliness of leaves and a shortening of internodes (Casanova et al 2005), which may be desirable for some plant species (Saxena et al 2007;Christensen et al 2008) and undesirable for others (Bhalla and Singh 2008).…”
