What is it about?
Establishment of genetic transformation of germinating rice seeds so that it does not require to go through long periods in tissue culture conditions. The method is also genotype independent as opposed to the tissue culture method. Genetypr independence is important in order to improve cultivars which may not be tissue-culture responsive
