β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene (carried by pBI121 plasmid) has been introduced into hexaploid wheat c. v. Xiaoshan No. 3 with the pollen-tube pathway method. Five transgenic plants are selected from 106 T0 plants. All of these plants are identified by the Southern hybridization, and the GUS activity can be detected by using fluorogenic assay and histochemical stain.
