Miscanthus lutarioriparius, a domestic species of China, belongs to the genus of perennial rhizomatous Miscanthus and is a promising energy crop for biomass production. To establish an Agrobacterium tumefaciens transformation protocol and obtain transgenic plants co-expressing the Cry 2Aa# and Bar genes, an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method for M. lutarioriparius was developed in this study. To inhibit tissue browning, optimized callus induction and regeneration media were developed. Embryogenic calli were efficiently induced from immature inflorescences on Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium containing 0.2 g L−1 citric acid. Agrobacterium tumefaciens EHA105 carrying pC3300 with the Cry 2Aa# and Bar genes were introduced into embryogenic calli. Six transgenic lines were selected by Basta screening and confirmed by genomic PCR. The herbicide tolerance of M. lutarioriparius transgenic plants was verified by spraying with glufosinate and expression of the Cry 2Aa# protein by ELISA. Therefore, an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol for M. lutarioriparius was established and the co-expression of herbicide tolerance and Cry 2Aa# was successfully introduced with the system.

An efficient Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method has been developed and optimized for switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.). The aim of this study is to optimize the conditions for agrobacterial transformation of upland switchgrass cultivars Alamo, Forestburg, Pathfinder, Shawnee, and Trailblazer. For genetic transformation, the authors have used embryogenic calli of switchgrass cultivars. As a result of the study the effect of the virulence gene inducer, surfactant, optical density of bacterial suspension and co-cultivation time, it has been revealed that the presence of acetosyringone with silwet-L77 in the medium, bacterial suspension at an optical density of 0.6 and 8 days of co-cultivation with bacteria is optimal for Agrobacterium– mediated transformation of embryogenic calli of switchgrass. The results obtained can serve as a basis for the creation of transgenic plants of switchgrass.
