Nous présentons ici un protocole pour la production à haute efficacité de racines velues de soja transgéniques.

Notre méthode de transformation des racines velues du soja est suffisante pour étudier simultanément les fonctions de plusieurs gènes ou réseaux, et pourrait déterminer les stratégies d’ingénierie optimales avant de s’engager dans des approches de transformation stables à long terme. La transformation des racines velues du soja est un outil utile pour l’analyse de la fonction des gènes chez les plants de soja. Les technologies actuellement utilisées comprennent l’édition du génome CRISPR-Cas9, l’interférence ARN, la transcriptomique et la protéomique, ainsi que les technologies d’imagerie.

Le défi majeur à l’ère des modèles de la génomique fonctionnelle est suffisant pour analyser la fonction de nombreux gènes. La plupart des gènes sont polygéniques, étant obtenus par l’interaction de nombreux gènes. Notre protocole de racine velue facilitera l’analyse de la fonction des gènes avec un débit suffisant, afin que les réseaux polygéniques puissent commencer à être compris.
