What are the essential requirements in a gene transfer system for production of transgenic plants?
Ability to select and regenerate transformed plants at a satosfactory frequency
Which term is synonymous with plant transformation?
Plant genetic engineering
What is the role of isolated DNA sequences in plant transformation?
Include the gene of interest along with non-genic regions
