Abstract
Suspension culture cells of barley (Hordeum vulgare L cv Pokko) were stably transformed with two separate plasmids containing genes coding for neomycin phosphotransferase II and beta-glucuronidase, respectively Transformed cultures were selected with the antibiotic Geneticin(R) Enzymatic activity was tested in the Geneticin(R) resistant cultures, and in 96% of them neomycin phosphotransferase could be detected The non-selected marker, detected as beta-glucuronidase activity, was expressed in 40% of the resistant cultures Stable transformation was confirmed with Southern blot hybridization
