Abstract

Castor (Ricinus communis L.) of the Euphorbiaceae family has been an important oilseed crop for genetic transformations, particularly Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Many factors influence Agrobacterium mediated transformation, including bacterial strains, cell density, plant growth regulators, antibiotics, explant, explant genotype, light, and temperature. The available information on this topic was summarized, and prospects for improving transformation efficiency were discussed.
