Soybean is one of humanity's major sources of plant protein. It is also very important for animal feed and as industrial raw material. Great advances have recently been achieved in its genetic transformation. This review provides a comprehensive discussion of important factors affecting Agrobacterium-mediated soybean transformation including target tissues, plant tissue health, wounding methods, regeneration systems, selectable markers and reporter genes.

DNA extracted by a standard method from Mycoplasma hominis Sprott, resistant to 100 μg tetracycline, permitted the quantitative genetic transformation of tetracycline-sensitive Mycoplasma salivarium to resistance. The yield was 1 μg DNA/109 cells. This DNA enabled determination of the optimum conditions for making M. salivarium competent with CaCl2 and for studying some factors affecting transformation. Mycoplasma salivarium was transformed to resistance to 10, 20, and 30 μg tetracycline but not to 40 μg. The optimum DNA concentration for transforming resistance to 10, 20, and30 μg tetracycline was the same, i.e., 50 μg DNA/108 viable cells. Treatment with DNase indicated that DNA uptake took 30 min. Competition between transforming DNA and DNA from calf thymus and M. salivarium tets inhibited transformation.

Olive (Olea europaea L.) is the most characteristic and important oil crop of the Mediterranean region. Traditional olive cultivation is based on few tens cultivars of ancient origin. To improve this crop, novel selections with higher tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress, adaptable to high-density planting systems and resilient to climate change are needed; however, breeding programs are hindered by the long juvenile period of this species and few improved genotypes have been released so far. Genetic transformation could be of great value, in the near future, to develop new varieties or rootstocks in a shorter time; in addition, it has currently become an essential tool for functional genomic studies. The recalcitrance of olive tissues to their in vitro manipulation has been the main bottleneck in the development of genetic transformation procedures in this species; however, some important traits such as fungal resistance, flowering or lipid composition have successfully been manipulated through the genetic transformation of somatic embryos of juvenile or adult origin, providing a proof of the potential role that this technology could have in olive improvement. However, the optimization of these protocols for explants of adult origin is a prerequisite to obtain useful materials for the olive industry. In this review, initially, factors affecting plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis are discussed. Subsequently, the different transformation approaches explored in olive are reviewed. Finally, transgenic experiments with genes of interest undertaken to manipulate selected traits are discussed.
