Abstract
Summary: A system for barley transformation via polyethyleneglycol-mediated DNA uptake into protoplasts isolated directly from scutella and the regeneration of transgenic plants is reported. Scutellum protoplasts (cv. Clipper, an Australian malting cultivar) were co-transformed with plasmids Act 1-DGUS, containing the marker uidA gene, and pCaIneo, which contains the selectable marker neomycin phosphotransferase gene. Protoplast-derived calluses were selected on medium containing the antibiotic G418 (25 and 15 mg.l-1) and macroscopic antibiotic resistant colonies were recovered. Fertile plants were regenerated from a callus line and molecular analysis confirmed transgene integration
