ABSTRACT:
The invention provides methods for transforming monocotyledonous plants withAgrobacterium, for example, using stolons as a target tissue. The invention allows creation of transgenic plants without the need for callus as a target tissue for transformation, thus providing a rapid method for the production of transgenic plants. The ability to directly regenerate transgenic plants from stolons significantly reduces the time, labor and other complications required to produce transgenic plants. Plants produced by such methods are also provided by the invention.
