  • Descrição: In the last few decades, a large research input has been geared up to develop and exploit a number of different techniques aiming to produce plants with improved resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, and seeds with enhanced nutritional values. Genetic transformation has proven its novelty to introduce desired characters into crop plants to cope with these challenges. Legumes posses an undeniable agronomic and eco-physiological importance, and they are a major source of proteins for food and feed, but their yield is unstable due to a number of biotic and abiotic factors and the protein quality and content in the seed does not always compare favourably with that of cereals and oil crops. This review summarizes and compares the various transformation as well as regeneration protocols used for gene transfer in legumes that would lead to the production of genetically engineered crops with improved characters, i.e., improved nutrition, resistance to biotic and abiotic factors etc. Different factors affecting the efficiency of gene transfer in legumes are also discussed.
