The Plant Transformation Core Facility at the University of
Missouri-Columbia has established a quite efficient Agrobacterium-mediated
maize transformation system using simple binary vectors. The current
transformation efficiency in maize Hi-IIAXB is at least 7%. The time frame
from the start of experiments to getting transgenic seeds is about 7-9
months dependent on seasons. The facility has capacity for servicing
requests from off-campus researchers. Interested groups can contact Dr.
Zhanyuan Zhang, at zhangzh at missouri.edu or visit the facility website at
www.plantsci.missouri.edu/muptcf <http://www.plantsci.missouri.edu/muptcf>
to learn more about process for the service request and pricing information.
