Abstract
The invention provides an improved method for transformation of sorghum and the production of genetically modified sorghum. In particular, methods and means are described for the production of high quality, transformable sorghum plant cells which are maintained in culture for longer duration without losing their regenerative potential and their use for genetic transformation. The method also describes the use of improved media for efficient plant regeneration from transformed plant cells, thereby providing significant improvement in the stable transformation frequency of sorghum.
