Abstract: Forage g rasses are crit ical to livestock indust ries and important in environmental pr otection and
soil conserv at ion. Accordingly , they have higher econom ic values compared w ith o ther crop species. Due
to the great complexity o f fo rag e species and the associated diff icult ies encountered by tr aditional breeding
methods, the po tential of bio technolog y for the development of improved fo rag e cultivars has been recog-
nized. Recent ly, great pro gresses have been made in bio technolo gy for forage genet ic impr ovement in Ch-i
na, w hich provides ef fect iv e str ategies to complement genet ic breeding ef for ts. T his r ev iew summarizes the
recent developments and research pro gresses in the biotechno logy and its applicat ions for the improvement
of forage in China including t issue culture, cell eng ineering, mo lecular marker, genet ic eng ineering , and
genet ic tr ansformation system. The author s finally bring forward the possible advancement direct ion of bio-
technolo gy research of forage breeding, such as improvement of quality and resistance, establishment of ef-
f icient t ransformation system , functional gene cloning , and risk assessment of t ransgenic forage, etc.

and maintaining ecolo gical equilibrium . Given spe-
cies div ersity , environmental complex ity and dif-
ferent g eographical dist ribution o f forag e in China,
it is of g reat signif icance to st reng then r esearch o f
fo rag e for developing new and improved grass var-i
et ies o f high y ield and quality, strong tolerance to
environmental st resses, pest and disease resist-
ance. Since long ago, a number of for ag e grasses
have been improved through convent ional br eeding
methods. How ever, there ex ist many shortcom-
ings o f tr aditional g enetic breeding techno logy , for
ex ample, t ime consuming of the process, labor in-
tensive and inef f icient . Biotechnolo gy has been
w idely used for improvement of g rain crops during
the past tw o decades. Considering forage genet ic
complex ity and the associated dif ficult ies encoun-
tered by convent ional breeding , biotechno logy o f-
fers many alternativ e and effect ive st rateg ies to im-
prove fo rage cult ivars[ 2, 4] .
Recent ly , rapid development has been ob-
tained in biotechno logy , and modern bio technolog y
pro to cols, such as t issue and cell culture, cel lular
engineering, molecular marker technolog y, and ge-
netic eng ineering , have w idely applied in the forag e
genet ic improvement and breeding . Especially, ge-
netic eng ineering has been developed or improved
fo r many important fo rage species and becomes an
impo rtant technique in forage breeding. Po tent ial
targ et t rait s have been ident ified, and novel and
impr oved materials w ith desirable commercial char-
acteristics have been generated by genetic engineer-
ing. Consequent ly, biotechnolo gy is expected to
accelerate the cour se of fo rag e improvement and
becomes an effect ive w ay for forage genetic modif-i
cation.
So far , many achiev ements have been made in
China in fo rage biotechno logy including t issue cu-l
ture, cellular engineering, mo lecular mar ker ap-
proach, g ene cloning, and genetic tr ansformation.
This review updates the most recent developments
in biotechnolog y and their applicat ions in genet ic
impr ovement of forage g rasses in China.
1 Development of Tissue Culture
Plant cell and t issue culture has become a ma-
jor to ol in the fundamental and applied progr ams in
plant science. Forage grasses v ar y g reat ly in geno-
type, w hich presents challenges in studies of t issue
culture. It is known that the establishment of an
eff icient t issue culture system is the basis for g e-
net ic manipulat ion o f for ag e. For this reason, it is
important to impr ove t issue culture systems fo r
dif ferent for ag e species. At present , eff icient tis-
sue culture and regenerat ion systems of many kinds
of legum inous and gramineous forages have been
established in China, including callus culture, an-
ther culture, suspension cell culture, and pro to-
plast culture system.
1. 1 Callus culture
For a successful t issue culture in plants, it is
necessary to start w ith an explant that is a mer-i
stem because these cells are capable of rapid prolif-
erat ion. The explants include bud, ro ot t ip, nodal
segment or g erminat ing seed, w hich grow into an
undifferent iated mass known as callus. In the past
decades, high ef ficient regener at ion sy stem has
been developed in China in a number of leguminous
forages, including M edicago sat iv a L.
[ 5~ 7]
, Ono-
bry chi s v iciaef olia Scop. [ 8] , Caragana kor shinsk ii
Kom .
[ 9]
, and S ty losanthes guianensi s ( Aubl. )
Sw .
[ 10]
, and g ramineous forage, including Festuca
arund inacea Schr eb. [ 11] , L ol ium per enne L. [ 12] ,
Poa p r atensi s L.
[ 13]
, Zoy sia siasinica Hance
[ 14]
,
A gr op y ron cr i statum L. [ 15] , and L eymus chinensi s

.
1. 2 Anther culture
T he haploid, w hich of fers great opportunit ies
for accelerat ing breeding prog ress and generat ing
as w el l as direct ing variation to increase genet ic d-i
versity useful for forag e improvement, could be
obtained by anther and microspor e cultures. T here
is only one repo rt on the anther culture of M. sati-
va which w as carried out by dif ferent t ime, low
temperature and heat shock treatments, mediums,
and hormone concentr at ions, and an opt imal med-i
um r ecipe for callus induction was def ined[ 17] .
1. 3 Suspension cell culture
By transfer of callus culture to a liquid med-i
um and ag itated, the cell mass breaks to g ive a
390
第 3期 刘立侠等:中国牧草生物技术的研究现状和展望
suspension of iso lated cells with few smal l cell
clusters and aggregates, the lat ter being ext remely
heterogeneous. T here are a few r eports on suspen-
sion cell cultur e in the past years. H igh- fr equency
suspension cell culture sy stem of Meli lotus albus
Desr. w as developed, and suspended cells had the
ability of r eg eneration
[ 18]
. About eight suspension
cell lines of F. arund inacea were established, and
six of them were able to regenerate and develop in-
to gr een plants
[ 19]
.
1. 4 Protoplast culture
Protoplast culture is one o f the most signif-i
cant developments in the f ield of plant tissue cu-l
ture, w hich is essent ial fo r pr otoplast fusion, and
consequent ly of fers a new w ay for for ag e improve-
ment . At present , protoplast cultur e and regenera-
t ion system for many for ag e species have been es-
tablished in China, including Lotus corniculatus
L. [ 20] , O. viciaef ol ia[ 21] , Tr if olium lup inaster
L.
[ 22]
, M. sat iv a
[ 23]
, A st r agalus tenuis ( Turcz. )
Ledeb. [ 24] , A str agalus adsur gens Pall. [ 25] , and
Descurainia S ophia L. [ 26] .
Although t issue culture and regenerat ion sy s-
tems o f a number of for ag e have been established,
as the acceptor system for t ransformat ion, it must
sat isfy special requir ements of high r eproduct iv e
property, high genet ic stability, stable explant
sources, ant ibiot ic sensit iv ity, and A grobacter ium
sensit iv ity . Considering genetic complex ity and en-
v ir onmental diversity o f forag e in China, further
studies are needed to opt imize the tissue cultur e
and regenerat ion systems for dif ferent forage spe-
cies.
2 Progresses of Cell Engineering
2. 1 Somatic hybridization
Somat ic hybridizat ion is gener al ly used for
pro toplast fusion either f rom tw o dif ferent species
or from tw o diverse sour ces belong ing to the same
species. T her efore, pro toplast fusion becomes one
w ay to obtain the autopolyploid and allopo lyploid
of plants. It can overcome not only sexual incom-
pat ible obstacle betw een the plants of distant rela-
t ionship, but also t radit ional dif ficult ies o f poly-
ploid inducement through sexual hybridizat ion. So-
mat ic hybridizat ion techno logy has become a useful
too l for crop improvements and a number of a-
chievements have been obtained in forag e somatic
hybridizat ion by either PEG induced fusion method
or elect ro- fusion method. Product ion of somatic
hybrid betw een wheat ( Tr i ti cum aest i vum L. ) and
L . p erenne has been repo rted through electr o- fu-
sion protocol[ 27] . T he donor-acceptor asymmetr-i
cally fusion method w as also establ ished in China.
Cytoplasm ic hybrid or the asymmetric nuclear hy-
brid w as obtained under the condit ion of one parent
being induced commonly by x-ray o r C-ray and act-
ing as the fusion dono r. Asymmetric hybrid w as
f irst obtained by PEG method betw een O. viciae-
f ol ia pr otoplast of ant-i hydroxypr oline cel l line and
protoplast line t ransfo rmed by Ag robacter ium tu-
mef aciens f rom M. sat iv a. Furthermore, cal lus of
asymmetrically intergeneric somat ic hybr id w ere
also obtained and differ ent iated into 17 seedlings.
Both the isoenzyme analysis and the nopaline syn-
thetase act iv ity test conf irmed its hybrid character-
ist ics [ 28] . T he intergener ic somatic cell hybr id w as
obtained by ult raviolet ir radiation betw een Psathy-
r ostachy s j uncea Fisch. and A gropy r om elongatum
Host . [ 29, 30] and betw een common wheat and Br o-
mus inermis Leyss. by PEG induced approach [ 31] .
2. 2 Somatic mutant screening
It is known that extensive variat ion w ill occur
during the pr ocess of cell culture in v itro . M ore
mutant may be obtained if the tox icant is added to
the medium o r the experimental materials ar e in-
duced, this w ill allow geneticists and breeder s to
take advantag e of the variat ion to g et useful mu-
tants. In r ecent years, pro gress has been made in
somat ic mutant scr eening of forage for salt[ 11] ,
cold[ 32, 33] and drought [ 34] tolerance in China. In
these repo rts, mutagen w as used for mutat ion in-
duct ion, such as EM S [ 32] , sodium azide[ 3 3] , and
PEG [ 34] .

In cel lular engineering research, although
some achievements have been obtained, successful
ex amples are quite few. Most somat ic hybridiza-
t ion studies focus on g rain crop improvement, thus
few er somat ic hybrid o f forage w as obtained at
present. Furthermor e, somatic hybrids of ten show
poo r fert ility. For this reason, only some lines for
impr ovement were obtained, and it is v ery dif ficult
to make commer cial variet ies. In the aspect o f so-
mat ic mutant screening, although there w ere only
several preliminary repor ts and no valuable mater-i
als w ere obtained in China at moment, cell eng-i
neer ing still provides an alternative w ay for forag e
impr ovement .
3 Applications of Molecular Marker
Molecular marker is an eff icient too l in mod-
ern ag riculture. It has been w idely used for ge-
nome and comparat iv e mapping, phy logeny and
populat ion genet ics, parental selection and species
ident ificat ion, quant itat ive t rait loci ( QTL) analy-
sis and associated research. M arker-assisted selec-
t ion can enhance the speed and ef fect iveness o f
plant breeding . Recent ly, many advances have
been made in molecular marker applicat ion for im-
provement of for ag e.
3. 1 Analysis of genetic polymorphism
In recent y ears, a number of molecular mark-
ers have already been used fo r detection of genet ic
po lymor phism of differ ent forage species in China.
Genet ic diversity of fo rage w as analyzed using Ran-
dom Amplified Polymorphic DNA ( RA PD) mark-
er, including A s. adsurg ens
[ 35]
, S tipa grandis P.
Smirn. in Inner M ongo lia[ 36] and A . cri statum[ 37] ,
P. p r atensi s
[ 38]
, F . arund inacea
[ 39]
from o ther ar-
eas. Other studies of genet ic polymorphism detec-
t ion using Amplified Fragment Length Polymor-
phism ( AFLP) marker w ere also demonst rated,
including L . chinensis [ 40] and S . g uianensi s [ 41] .
SSRs ( Simple Sequence Repeats) and ISSRs ar e
relat ively recent mo lecular markers that have w ide-
ly used in crop genet ics. They w ere r eported to de-
tect the genet ic polymorphism of Dacty li s
g lomer ata L.
[ 42]
and M. sat iv a
[ 43]
.
3. 2 Species identification and estimation of genetic
relationship
Molecular marker techno logy may provide a
stable and reliable evidence for analysis of g enetic
relat ionship, classif icat ion, and species ident if ica-
t ion. Four classes o f mo lecular markers w ere used
for analysis of g enetic dif ferent iation and systemat-
ic relationships of A gr ost is L. plants[ 44] . Genetic
variat ion of cytoplasm genomic DNA o f K engy i l ia
Yen et J. L. Yang w as invest ig ated using PCR-
RFLP ( Rest rict ion Fragment Leng th Po lymo r-
phism) technolog y, providing the valuable mater-i
als for the r esearch of systemat ics of K engy i l ia
sp p .
[ 45]
. RAPD marker w as used to const ruct phy-
logenetic t ree fo r P . p ratensis, and provided relia-
ble evidence fo r it s systemat ic classif icat ion[ 46] .
M oreover, it w as r eported that RAPD marker w as
also used for variety ident ification of M. sativa
[ 47]
and analysis of interspecif ic relationship of P seud-
or oegner ia ( Nevski) A . Love[ 48] .
3. 3 Construction of genetic linkage map
Molecular mar ker can be used for const ruct ion
of g enetic linkage map and precise chr omosomal lo-
calizat ion of valuable genes, w hich play an impo r-
tant r ole in gene cloning . Based on RFLP analysis
of g enom ic DNA using short micr o-satellite repet-i
t ion sequence as probe, a g enet ic f ing er print map
of L . chinensis was developed, w hich prov ides a
new way fo r improvement of L . chinensis [ 49] .
T here are some forage species w hose DNA finger-
print maps w ere constr ucted using dif ferent mo le-
cular markers, including M. sativa [ 50] and Zoy sia
j ap onica Steud. [ 51] . Chromosomal lo calizat ion be-
comes an impo rtant st rateg y for g ene cloning . T w o
new genes der iv ed f rom Aegi lop s tauschi i Coss.
for pow der y m ildew resistance w ere located on the
5D long arm chromosome using the micro-satell ite
marker
[ 52]
. It is reported that new molecular mark-
ers in dif ferent fo rage species w ere discovered,
w hich allow pr ecise localization of g enes linking to
392
第 3期 刘立侠等:中国牧草生物技术的研究现状和展望
them. A special r epet it ion sequence has been
cloned from C chromosome of the A egi lop s cau-
date L. , w hich can serve as an ef fect ive molecular
marker in the research of origin and evolut ion o f
w heat family and analy sis o f C chromosome
[ 53]
.
Also, a mo lecular marker, linking to a gene for
salt tolerance, w as obtained from M . sativa
[ 54]
.
These researches lay a foundat ion for gene
cloning, and are of gr eat importance for genet ic
impr ovement o f forag e g rasses. Although many
successes have been obtained in the applicat ion o f
molecular markers in forage research, most of the
reported w ork focuses on genet ic polymorphism
and species ident if icat ion, there has been no report
on the QT L analysis and marker assisted breeding.
Expressed Sequence T ag ( EST ) databases repre-
sent a po tent ially valuable resource fo r the deve-l
opment of molecular markers for use in evolution-
ary and crop improvement studies. Because EST-
derived markers come from transcribed r eg ions o f
the genome, they are likely to be conser ved across
a broader taxonom ic range than are other so rts o f
marker s. How ever, ther e has been no relevant r e-
port on EST in fo rage research in China.
4 Advances of Genetic Engineering
4. 1 Gene cloning and expression analysis
Due to genet ic diver sity and geographical dis-
t ribution, fo rag e genet ic resour ces are ver y rich in
China. T herefore w e may separate and clone some
valuable novel g enes and promoters for crop im-
provement . Unfo rtunately, compared w ith other
crops, few resear ches of gene cloning and gene
funct ional analysis in for ag e are ongo ing in China.
The hydrogen pero xidase plays a vital ro le in
abiot ic st ress tolerance in plants. A cDNA of hy-
drogen per oxidase ( FaCat1 ) w as cloned fr om
young seedling s of F. ar undinacea tr eated in low
temperature env ir onment of 4 e , and the follow ing
resear ch of the expression of FaCat1 cont inued un-
der abio t ic st ress, including drought , salt , and
cold
[ 55]
. Glutenin is one of the main seed storag e
pro teins o f Tr i ti cum and its relat iv e g enus. Genes
of tw o subunits of high molecular w eight g lutenin
w ere cloned from Ae. ventr icosa
[ 56]
. A gene o f a
subunit of glutenin w as also separated f rom A.
elong atum, and the class of subunit is much more
than that of T . aesti vum[ 57] . Gliadin is another
main seed stor ag e pr otein. A gene of gliadin of 10
KD was cloned fr om rice, and the content of sulfur
amino acid w as more abundant than that of
maize[ 58] . SgNCED1, g ene of a key enzyme in
ABA biosynthesis pathw ay in higher plants, has
been cloned from S. guianensi s[ 59] .
4. 2 Genetic transformation of forage
Genet ic t ransformat ion of plants has become
an indispensable tool for understanding basic bio-
log ical processes. On the pract ical side, the gener-
at ion of t ransgenic plants, coupled w ith breeding,
has led to the creat ion of t ransgenic cult ivars w ith
valuable t raits in a number o f majo r cr ops [ 4] . Ge-
net ic t ransformat ion system has been developed fo r
many impor tant forage g rasses in China, and novel
and improved materials w ith desirable commer cial
characterist ics have been generated by genet ic eng-i
neering in r ecent y ears.
4. 2. 1 Quality improvement o f forag e Forage
qualit ies include many components and the nutr-i
t ional quality is the most important one. Sulfur
containing amino acids ( SAA ) , methionine and
cysteine, are essent ial fo r w oo l g row th in sheep
under normal gr azing condit ions. A gene o f high
sulfur am ino acid containing pr otein w as int ro-
duced to M . sativa by A gr obacter ium-mediated
t ransformat ion, and the results indicated that the
content of sulfur amino acid increased considera-
bly
[ 60]
. T he g liadin of maize is also rich in sulfur a-
mino acids and the coding gene of it w as repo rted
to be t ransformed to A st ragalus cicer L. [ 61] and L.
cor niculatus
[ 62]
. T r ansgenic L . cor niculatus plants
that express gliadin gene of rice w ere also achiev ed
by Ag robacter ium-mediated method[ 58] .
4. 2. 2 Improvement of g row th Gibberellin
( GA ) plays an important role in the control of
plant grow th, including contro l of stem elongat ion
and reproduct ive development . Gibber ellin 20-ox-i
393
草 地 学 报 第 17卷
dase ( GA 20-oxidase) is a key enzyme that cataly-
ses the last three steps in the synthesis of act iv e
GAs, and a potent ial cont rol po int in the r egula-
t ion of GA biosynthesis. T ransgenic plants of L .
corniculatus w ith GA 20-ox idase gene w ere ob-
tained by A . tumef aciens mediated method. PCR-
Southern blo tt ing and dot blo tt ing analy sis re-
vealed that target g ene was integ rated into the ge-
nome of the t ransgenic plants. How ever, Com-
pared to the control, there w as an only increase o f
1. 44% in biomass yield of t ransgenic plants[ 63] .
4. 2. 3 Insect and virus r esistance The Bt gene,
w hich is responsible for producing to xin inside the
bacteria, can be t ransferr ed to crops, thereby mak-
ing them more resistant to the corr esponding in-
sect . Transgenic P. p ratensis plants w ith Bt gene
w ere obtained, w hich result in pest resistance
[ 64]
.
Although virus disease in gener al is not a big pr o-
blem for forag e grasses, it does reduce y ield of pe-
r ennial g rasses in certain areas. It is known that
the t ransformat ion of plants w ith virus coat protein
gene may effect ively induced virus disease resist-
ance. T he coat pro tein gene of the alfalfa mosaic
virus ( AMV ) w as int roduced to T ri f ol ium p r e-
tense L. [ 65] . A nd tw o genes of AMV and white
clov e mosaic virus ( WCMV) have py ramided to T .
p r atense through convent ional breeding of hybrid-
izat ion, w hich render T . p r atense plants resistant
to both AMV and WAMV simultaneously [ 66] .
RNAi is an alternat ive to develop virus resistant
plants.
4. 2. 4 Development of tr ansgenic v accine T he
use of t ransgenic plants as bio-reacto rs for the ex-
pression of viral and bacterial ant ig ens has been in-
creasing ly tested as an alternative methodolo gy for
the product ion of experimental vaccines. F. he-
p atica protect ive ant ig enic gene was int roduced in-
to M. sativa by Agr obacter ium mediated gene
tr ansfer [ 67] . The research lays a foundation for de-
velopment o f edible vaccine o f F. hepatica. Foot
and mouth disease is an infectious disease af fecting
clov en- hoo fed animals, in part icular catt le, sheep,
pig, go at , and deer. Development of edible vaccine
through transgenic forag e is a convenient and eco-
nomical st rateg y for animal health and for the live-
stock indust ry. VP1 gene, the main immunogenic
gene o f the foot-and- mouth disease virus ( FM-
DV) , has been tr ansformed into L . p er enn, and
the results of RT-PCR and Western-blot t ing hy-
bridizat ion analysis indicated that the t ransgenes
produced the expected protein, w hich offers mate-
rials fo r the animal t rial[ 68] .
4. 2. 5 Abio tic stress to ler ance Abio tic st resses,
notably ext reme temperatures and supplies of w a-
ter and inorg anic so lutes, f requently limit grow th
and product ivity of for ag e. It has been shown that
drought or cold stresses induce the expression of a
number of genes. The pr oducts can be classif ied
into tw o groups: those that direct ly counteract
det rimental condit ions ( such as enzymes involv ed
in the biosynthesis of osmoprotectants) and tho se
that regulate gene expr ession and signal t ransduc-
t ion in the st ress response[ 3] .
Acid so il is a g row th lim it ing facto r o f some
forage species in south China. Al toxicity is a se-
vere impediment to product ion of many cr ops in
acid soil. It is known that the malate is the ef fec-
t ive chelat ing agent of Al ion and thus can alleviate
tox ic A l ef fects. T he gene encoding malate de-
hydro-genase ( MDH) w as t ransformed into M. sa-
t iv a and the resultant t ransgenic plants display ed
signif icantly enhanced to ler ance o f soil acidity and
Al tox icity [ 74] .
A major dist ribut ion area of soda saline-alka-
line soil is located in northeast China. It is of gr eat
importance to do some r esearch for improvement of
saline-alkaline tolerance for forage grasses. Clo-
ning and transformat ion o f relevant tolerance genes
w ere being carried on, and some prog resses have
been made in autho rs . laborato ry over past few
years. A vacuolar membr ane Na+ / H + antiporter
g ene w as cloned from local native salt resistant
species of Suaed a cor niculata C. A. M ey. and
S alsola soda L. ( Genebank code EU073422) in J-i
lin Prov ince and int roduced into M . sat iv a. T he T 1
and T 2 generat ion of t ransgenic plants have ob-
tained, w hich are able to bear over 200 mM NaCl.

tr ansferase ( PAT) and is commonly used as a se-
lectable marker in tr ansgenic research, renders
plants resistant to phosphino thricin ( PPT ) , g lu-
fosinate or bialaphos herbicide. At present , her b-i
cide-resistant plants have been produced by trans-
formation in many forage species, including L .
chinensi s
[ 75] and F. ar undinacea[ 76] .
5 Future Prospects
For age gr asses pro vide t remendous benef its to
humans, livestock and w ildlife sustenance, soil
conserv at ion, and environmental protect ion. Con-
sidering the product iv ity o f livestock depending
largely on forage ut ilization, the cash value of for-
age species far exceeds that of any other crop. M o-
r eover , because forag e is no t direct food for hu-
man, t ransgenic for ag e is mo re easily accepted to
achieve commer cialization. U nfortunately, it is ob-
v ious that resear ch and development in ag ricultural
sector have been neg lected to a larg e ex tent . Fora-
ges are the most w idely grow n, but probably least
appreciated, and lit t le investment has been directed
to the improvement of for ag e in China. Biotechno-l
o gy research in forage g rasses has been lagg ing be-
hind that of major cash crops. Ef forts have to be
made to change this situat ion by increasing invest-
ment and do ing more research of forage biotechno-l
o gy fo r improvement .
5. 1 The target traits for improvement of forage
Biotechno logy is a ver y impo rtant and useful
approach to develop forage production. Based on
the needs of for ag e development , fo rage quality
impr ovement , disease and pest r esistance, toler-
ance to abio tic st resses, and manipulation o f
grow th r epresent the current tar gets fo r molecular
breeding in China. W e believ e that a number o f
new lines o r species o f for ag e w ould be selected
w ith bio technolog y and made an applicat ion in fu-
ture.
5. 2 Establ ishment of efficient transformation sys-
tem
T echniques developed fo r genet ic br eeding of
forage open up opportunit ies for evaluat ing the po-
tent ial o f dif ferent experimental st rateg ies directed
at achieving certain biotechnolog y object ives. Un-
fortunately , ef ficient tr ansformation system o f ma-
jor fo rag e species has not been established in Ch-i
na. T here is a gr eat need to drast ically impr ove
t ransformat ion eff iciency and thus allow the pro-
duct ion o f large numbers o f tr ansgenic gr asses in a
sho rt period.
5. 3 Functional gene cloning
Although ther e are abundant gene resources of
forage in China, funct ional genes cloned from fo r-
age are quite few er. It is necessary to launch the
projects of genomics of major forage g rasses to
separate new genes of impo rtant agronomic charac-
ter s f rom dif ferent fo rag e species, w hich can be
used fo r bo th forage and grain crop improvement.
Fur thermor e, w e may make use of the research a-
chievement of genomics of model plants, such as
A r abidop si s thal iana and rice, to develope a model
system fo r forage in or der to test candidate genes
of inter est.
5. 4 Risk assessment of transgenic forage
T ransgenic cr ops must be subjected to risk as-
sessment befor e they ar e produced commercially.
U nfortunately, there are few er reports on risk as-
sessment of t ransgenic for ag e in China. Although
no tr ansgenic fo rag e cult ivar has been approved,
mult ifo ld studies are needed to prov ide so lid and
convincing data for commercializat ion of t ransgenic
forage.
With the development o f curr ent gene discov-
ery methods and rapidly expending know ledge of
molecular biolog y, more and more funct ional genes
and gene regulato ry elements are cloned and the
basic research o f signal t ransduction and gene ex-
pression r egulat ion ar e also gradually pro gressive.
T he recent advances have great ly inf luenced basic
research in bio technolo gy and forage genet ic im-

provement . Genet ically modified ( GM ) crops have
been commercialized in the w orld for more than a
decade to improve agr icultural, nut ritional, and
fo od processing t rait s, such as insect, herbicide,
and virus resistance, vitamin enrichment, and con-
tro lled fr uit ripening. With the establishment o f
the highly eff icient genet ic t ransfo rmat ion system
of dif ferent forage species, novel and impr oved ma-
terials w ith desirable commercial char acterist ics
w il l be generated by genet ic engineering . It is ex-
pected that integ ration of biotechnolo gy into ap-
plied for ag e grass breeding prog rams w ill result in
a brilliant future in the 21st century .
