| Summary: | Summary: Here, we present a streamlined Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol for jute (Corchorus sp.). We describe steps to pierce and vacuum infiltrate imbibed jute seeds with Agrobacterium suspension. We then detail procedures for selecting transformed seeds by using a hygromycin-B-supplemented medium. This approach can achieve transformation efficiencies of 20.44% ± 1.17% and 15.55% ± 0.58% for tossa (C. olitorius) and white (C. capsularis) jute, respectively. Demanding minimal resources and time, this protocol can elevate genetic engineering research in jute fiber crops.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Majumder et al. (2020).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
