Stevia rebaudiana produces sweet-tasting steviol glycosides (SGs) in its leaves which can be used as natural sweeteners. Metabolic engineering of Stevia would offer an alternative approach to conventional breeding for enhanced production of SGs.

Metabolic engineering of Stevia would offer an alternative approach to conventional breeding lt br gt for enhanced production of SGs. However an effective protocol for Stevia transformation is lacking. lt br gt Results Here we present an efficient and reproducible method for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of Stevia. lt br gt In our attempts to produce transgenic Stevia plants we found that prolonged dark incubation is critical for increasing lt br gt shoot regeneration. Etiolated shoots regenerated in the dark also facilitated subsequent visual selection of lt br gt transformants by green fluorescent protein during Stevia transformation. Using this newly established transformation lt br gt method we overexpressed the Stevia 1-deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase 1 SrDXS1 and kaurenoic acid hydroxylase lt br gt SrKAH both of which are required for SGs biosynthesis. Compared to control plants the total SGs content in SrDXS1- lt br gt and SrKAH-overexpressing transgenic lines were enhanced by up to 42 54 and 67 88 respectively showing a lt br gt positive correlation with the expression levels of SrDXS1 .
