This document discusses various gene transfer techniques, including transformation, which alters an organism's genetic makeup by inserting exogenous DNA. The aims of transforming plants are to improve crop yields and make cultivated plants more resistant to pests and weather. Direct methods like particle bombardment, PEG-mediated transformation, electroporation, and microinjection are described. Particle bombardment uses a gene gun to coat microparticles with DNA and propel them into plant tissues. PEG and divalent cations render plant cell membranes permeable to naked DNA. Electroporation uses electric pulses to create pores for DNA entry. Direct methods are useful for cereals but can cause transgene rearrangement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Transformation:
• Transformation is the process by which genetic makeup
of an organism is altered by the insertion of new gene(or
exogenous DNA) into its genome .This is usually done
using vectors such as plasmids.
• The aim of producing transgenic plants is to-
a) Improve crop yields.
b) Improvement of varietal trait.
c) Give cultivated plants more protection against their
pests, parasites and harsh weather conditions.
3. History
• Transformation was first demonstrated in 1928 by British
bacteriologist Frederick Griffith in Diplococcus pneumonia.
• In 1944 this "transforming principle" was identified as being
genetic by Oswald Avery, Colin MacLeod, and Maclyn
McCarty
• Transformation using electroporation was developed in the
late 1980s.
• Particle bombardment discovered (gene gun) by John Sanford
in the 1980s.
4. Methods of plant transformation:
• INDIRECT METHOD: Agrobacterium mediated gene transfer.
• DIRECT METHODS :
Particle gun/biolistic/ballistic method of DNA delivary.
Chemical method;Polyethylene glycol (PEG)/protoplast fusion.
Microinjection.
Macroinjection.
Electroporation.
Lipofection; Liposome mediated gene transfer.
Fibre mediated DNA delivary.
LASER induced DNA delivary.
Pollen transformation.
DNA delivary via Growing pollen tubes.
Direct DNA uptake by mature zygotic embryos.
5. DIRECT METHODS
1. PARTICLE GUN METHOD.
A gene gun or a biolistic particle delivery
system, designed for plant transformation, is a
device for injecting cells with genetic information.
The payload is an elemental particle of a heavy
metal(tungston/gold) called microprojectiles
coated with plasmid DNA.
8. • Gene gun and system. (A) The biolistic system. The
Biolistic PDS-1000/He instrument consists of the
bombardment chamber (main unit), connective tubing for
attachment to vacuum source, and all components necessary
for attachment and delivery of high pressure helium to the
main unit (helium regulator, solenoid valve, etc.).
9. Principle:
The gold or tungsten particles are coated with the
DNA that is used to be transform the plant tissue.
The particles are propelled at high speed into the
target plant material where the DNA is released
within the cell and can integrate into the genome.
Two types of plant tissues are used for particle
bombardment:
a) Primary explants that are bombarded and then
induced to become embryogenic.
b) Proliferating embryonic cultures that are
bombarded and then allowed to proliferate further
and subsequently regenerate.
10. How the PDS-1000/bombardment System Works :
The sample to be transformed is placed in the bombardment
chamber, which is evacuated to sub atmospheric pressure.
The instrument is fired; helium flows into the gas
acceleration tube and is held until the specific pressure of the
rupture disk is reached.
The disk bursts, and the helium shock wave drives the
macrocarrier disk (which carries the coated microparticles) a
short distance toward the stopping screen.
The stopping screen retains the macrocarrier, while the
microparticles pass through the screen into the bombardment
chamber and penetrate the target cells
11. • The launch velocity of microcarriers depends on
a number of adjustable parameters:
The helium pressure (rupture disk selection, 450–
2,200 psi),
The amount of vacuum, the distance from the
rupture disk to the macrocarrier,
The distance from the microcarrier launch assembly
to the stopping screen,
The distance between the stopping screen and target
cells.
Adjusting these parameters allows you to produce a
range of velocities to optimally transform many
different cell types.
15. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) mediated transformation -
the chemical method.
Plant protoplast can be transformed with naked DNA by
treatment with PEG in the presence of divalent cations .
e. g., Calcium.
PEG and divalent cations destabilize the plasma
membrane of the plant protoplast and rendered it
permeable to naked DNA.
DNA enters the nucleus and integrates into the host
genome.
16. Disadvantage and advantages of PEG:
Regeneration of fertile plants from protoplasts is a
problematic for some species bcoz of secondary
metabolites accumulation or any compounds.
The DNA used for transformation is also susceptible to
degradation and rearrangement.
Despite the limitations,
The technique have the advantage i.e., protoplast can
be isolated and transformed in number of plants species.
17. Electroporation:
• It can be used to deliver DNAinto
plant cells and protoplasts.
• The genes of interest require plant
regulatory sequence.
• Plant materials is incubated in a buffer
solution containing DNA and
subjected to high-voltage electric
pulse.
• The DNA then migrates through high-
voltage-induced pores in the plasma
membrane and integrates into the
genome.
• It can be used to transform all the
major cereals particularly rice, wheat,
maize.
19. Advantages and disadvantages:
• Both intact cells and tissue can be transformed.
• The efficiency of transformation depends upon the
plant materials, electroporation and tissue treatment
conditions used for transformation.
Disadvantage:
• Only 40 to 50% incubated cells receive DNA.
• ~50% of the transformed cells can survive.
20. Microinjection
Microinjection techniques for
plant protoplasts utilize a holding
pipette for immobilizing the
protoplast while an injection
pipette is utilized to inject the
macromolecule.
In order to manipulate the
protoplasts without damage, the
protoplasts are cultured for from
about 1 to 5 days before the
injection is performed to allow for
partial regeneration of the cell wall.
21. • It was found that injection through the partially
regenerated cell wall could still be accomplished
and particular compartments of the cell could be
targeted.
• The methods are particularly useful for
transformation of plant protoplasts with
exogenous genes.
22. Macro injection;
• The injection of plasmid DNA(or uncloned
native DNA) into the lumen of developing
inflorescence using a hypodermic syringe
called macroinjection.
23. Laser induced DNA delivery.
• LASERs punctures transient holes in cell
membrane through which DNA may enter into
the cell cytoplasm.
• But, There is no information/report on gene
expression or stable integration.
24. Advantages and disadvantages of direct
gene transfer :
Advantage- Widespread use of transformation of
cereal crops that initially proved difficult to
transformation with Agrobacterium.
Disadvantage- They tend to lead higher frequency
of transgene rearrangement and higher copy number.
This can lead to high frequency of gene silencing.
