| Abstract | This project was one phase of research required for production of transgenic sugarcane. Through this project the sugar industry now has a synthetic resistance gene against SCMV that expresses in sugarcane plant cells. When sugarcane plants are regenerated from protoplasts or the biolistic gene is adopted for use in sugarcane, this gene may be used to produce transgenic cane plants combining their original agronomic characteristics with SCMV resistance. |
