Abstract

The invention relates to the genetic manipulation of plants, particularly plants of the genus Brassica. Methods are provided for producing transgenic Brassica plants involving the introduction of a DNA construct by microprojectile bombardment. The methods find use in the development of improved agricultural varieties of Brassica plants through the incorporation of new agronomic traits.
