Abstract
Sugarbeet apices were used as targets for particle bombardment with a microtargeting device. Before examining gene expression, particle pene tration experiments were carried out. Transient GUS expression was det ected within the first and second cell layers of the meristem. Dividin g cells with GUS activity demonstrated that cells survived the bombard ment procedure.
