- Intervention effect Genotype G4 gave a better chilli regeneration rate (33.80%) than LCA334
- Intervention effect Shoot rooting was highest in MS medium with 2 mg/L IBA compared with other hormones
- Observation The dreb1A transgene was detected in chilli transformants by PCR and Southern blotting
