Abstract
In leaf and stem explants of chickpea, wild type strains of Agrobacteria were able to induce tumors. These tumors were capable of phytohormone independent growth. A supervirulent strain A281 was found to be most effective. Thus, using an agrobacterium R1601, which carries genes conferring supervirulent phenotype along with a plant selectable marker gene (npt II), transformed calli of chickpea were selected in the presence of 100 micrograms/ml level of kanamycin. Molecular analyses of genomic DNA from transformed calli confirmed the integration of the marker gene into chickpea genome.
