Abstract:T-DNA insertional transformation system of a universal non-pathogenic Magnaporthe grisea isolate CY2, was improved with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58C1 carrying plasmid pBIG2RHPH2 harboring the hygromycin B gene. The result showed that total 329 transformants could be obtained per 1×104 spores when C58C1 was 0.1 at OD600, induction medium with pH5.2 containing acetosyringone at 200μmol/L, selection medium containing 200μg/mL of hygromycin B, cefotaxime sodium and spectinomycin each and 2mm wide filter paper stripe were used. The transformants were stable when they grew on CM medium without hygromycin B for 5 times and were verified with PCR amplification based on the primer pairs of the hygromycin resistance gene. By artificial inoculation on 44 near-isogenic lines with different backgrounds, 20 pathogenic mutants were isolated out of 8000 transformants.
