Abstract: In this study,a plasmid pJPM5 containing modified GFPgene which encode the green fluorescent protein(GFP)was constructed.Microprojectile bombardment was used to separately introduce two plasmids pJPM5 and pSBG700 into rice TNG67 calli.

Key words: Green fluorescence protein(GEP), Reporter gene, Genetic transformation, Rice(Oryza sativa)
