title: Transient expression and histological localization of a gus chimeric gene after direct transfer to mature cowpea embryos.
abstract: Transient expression of a chimeric gus reporter gene was demonstrated in cowpea embryonic cells after direct gene transfer. This report shows that seed-derived embryos express the reporter gene at high frequency after passive or electroporation-mediated DNA transfer.
