Abstract

New model system of plastid transformation has been proposed using a wild representative of Solanaceae family--S. sinuata. Earlier obtained cybrid plants N. tabacum (+ S. sinuata) were used for transformation experiments by PEG treatment of protoplasts with aadA gene that confers resistance to spectinomycin. Transformed S. sinuata plastome was transferred from N. tabacum (+ S. sinuata) cybrid to S. sinuata wild type plants by somatic hybridization. Molecular analysis of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA has been performed.
