Regulation of hydrogen peroxide accumulation and death of Agrobacterium-transformed cells in tomato transformation
Our previous studies demonstrate that Agrobacterium causes tissue browning that subsequently reduces transformation efficiency in tomato transformation. In addition application of lipoic acid (LA) can reduce tissue browning and increase transformation efficiency in different crops. A major challenge...

Summary: | Our previous studies demonstrate that
Agrobacterium
causes tissue browning that subsequently reduces transformation efficiency in tomato transformation. In addition application of lipoic acid (LA) can reduce tissue browning and increase transformation efficiency in different crops. A major challenge in
Agrobacterium
-mediated plant transformation is the death of
Agrobacterium
-transformed cells (DATC), which restricts transgenic plant production. Hydrogen peroxide (H
2
O

) plays a critical role in oxidative stress. However, little is known about the biochemical and molecular mechanisms for DATC. Our biological and correlation analyses showed that
Agrobacterium
mediated H

O

accumulation (HOA) and HOA elevation led to DATC during
Agrobacterium
-mediated tomato cv. MicroTom transformation.
