Abstract
A method for transforming rice plants to express heterologous DNA which involves the biolistic bombardment of mature rice seeds (embryo bearing) and results in expression of the heterologous DNA coated on the biolistic particle in the post-bombardment embryo. The heterologous DNA may be introduced as a plastid, as opposed to bare DNA. The transformed rice embryo is regenerated into a rice plantlet which can be transferred from greenhouse to field.
