Abstract

A method is disclosed for the Agrobacterium-mediated germline genetic transformation of soybean. The method is based on an Agrobacterium-mediated gene delivery to individual cells in a freshly germinated soybean meristem, wherein cells are induced directly to form shoots and give rise to transgenic plants. This method does not involve a callus-phase tissue culture and is rapid and efficient.
