Rose plant cells are transformed by incubation with Agrobacterium cells carrying an exogenous DNA sequence. The callus cells may be obtained from various tissue sources, including stamen filaments, leaf explants, and the like, and whole rose plants may be regenerated from the transformed callus cells. The exogenous DNA will be stably incorporated into the chromosomes of the regenerated rose plant which will be able to express gene(s) encoded by the DNA sequence.

Genetically transformed rose plants and methods for their production

Carnation plant material is transformed by cocultivation with Agrobacterium cells carrying an exogenous DNA sequence. In particular, by initiating callus formation on the plant material, transformed shoots may be produced in a suitable medium. Plantlets may be produced from the shoots by initiating root formation and subsequently transferring the rooted shoots to soil.
