The plant Arabidopsis thaliana was transformed by using the Ti plasmid into which a kanamycin resistance gene had been inserted in the T-DNA region. Two kanamycin-resistant colonies (A and B) were selected, and plants were regenerated from them. The plants were allowed to self-pollinate, and the results were as follows: Plant A selfed Plant B selfed → 3/4 progeny resistant to kanamycin → 1/4 progeny sensitive to kanamycin 15/16 progeny resistant to kanamycin 1/16 progeny sensitive to kanamycin

The plant Arabidopsis thaliana was transformed by using the Ti plasmid into which a
kanamycin resistance gene had been inserted in the T-DNA region. Two kanamycin-resistant
colonies (A and B) were selected, and plants were regenerated from them. The plants were
allowed to self-pollinate, and the results were as follows:
Plant A selfed
Plant B selfed
→ 3/4 progeny resistant to kanamycin
→
1/4 progeny sensitive to kanamycin
15/16 progeny resistant to kanamycin
