K. aGenetic transformation of cavendish banana (Musa spp. AAA group) cv Grand Nain via microprojectile bombardment.h[electronic resource] c2000 aAn effective method has been developed for the stable transformation and regeneration of Cavendish banana (Musa spp. AAA group) cv Grand Nain by microprojectole bombardment. Embryogenic cell suspensions were initiated using immature male flowers as the explant. Cells were co-bombarded with the neomycin phosphotransferase (nptII) selectable marker gene under the control of a banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) promoter or the CaMV 35S promoter, and either the B-glucuronidase (uidA) reporter gene or BBTV genes under the control of the maize polyubiquitin promoter. aMusa aBanana aMicroprojectile bombardment aTransformation1 aDYGDALE, B.1 aSMITH, M.
