Plant Genetic Engineering Background a) Regeneration b) Transformation Previous Modified Plants vs Chili Research Objectives Materials and Methods Results
Regeneration
Whole plants from single cells. Involves developing media and other growth conditions. Unique culturing conditions have to be developed for each plant.
Types of Regeneration Organogenesis (direct plantlet formation) Callus-induced (indirect plantlet) When exposed to specific plant hormones un-differentiated growth (callusing) plant embryogenesis
Identification of plant growth Murashige and Skoog media (MS media) (1962) Complimentary growth regulators (plant hormones) Essential to the regeneration efficiency Promotes callus, embryo, root, shoot and plantlet formation
Callusing
Multiple Embryo
Root Development
BAP (benzylamino purine) at 5mg/L a synthetic cytokinin (shoot) IAA (indole acetic acid) at 1mg/L is an auxin (cell division) GA (giberrillic acid) at 2mg/L - (Arous S et. al 2001)
Once the regeneration system is standardized, it can be integrated with the transformation system.

Previous GMOs have been improved with respect to rotting, herbicide, insect resistance Any plant tissue can be used in tissue culture Previous GMO crops have high regeneration capabilities
Many economically important crop species such as chili lies many challenges
Low to produce whole plants from cells in tissue culture Only colyledons and hypocotyledons Protocols not repeatable Other reports are not complete

Conclusion
Identified and established the NM chile lines with maximum regeneration capability in tissue culture (August 2007). Standardized protocol for efficient gene delivery in chile plant cells using a reporter gene and have established an Agrobacterium strain and genotype combination (August 2007).
