| Abstract | In banana and plantain research, it is essential to establish embryogenic cell suspensions together with a highly efficient regeneration and transformation system. This article describes the development of an embryogenic cell suspension (ECS), regeneration, and transformation for plantain cv. “Gonja manjaya”. ECS was established using highly proliferative multiple buds. The frequency of embryogenic friable callus formation was 56.8% of the cultured explants. Friable embryogenic calli with many translucent proembryos were transferred to liquid medium and homogenous cell suspensions were established within 3–4 mo. Approximately 25,000 to 30,000 plants per 1.0 ml of settled cell volume were regenerated in approximately 13–14 mo. ECSs were transformed using Agrobacterium strain EHA 105 harboring the binary vector pBI121. About 50–60 transgenic plants per 0.5 ml settled cell volume were regenerated on selective medium containing 100 mg l$^{−1}$ kanamycin. Histochemical GUS assays using different tissues of putatively transformed plants demonstrated stable expression of uidA gene. The presence and integration of the uidA gene were confirmed by PCR and Southern blot analysis, respectively. This is the first report showing establishment of embryogenic cell suspension cultures and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of an important plantain cultivar, “Gonja manjaya”. This study shows the huge potential for genetic transformation of plantains for disease or pest resistance, as well as tolerance to abiotic factors such as drought stress using this robust regeneration and transformation protocol. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
