Effect of cryopreservation on the efficiency of exogenous gene, genetic transformation and expression level of Arabidopsis thaliana

Background: Cryopreservation refers to the storage of a living organism at ultra-low-temperature for long-term preservation of plant germplasm. The effect of cryopreservation on the efficiency of exogenous gene genetic transformation and expression level were studied herein. In this work, transgenic...
