A simple apparatus was constructed for producing electric discharge of varying intensities between two electrodes in a spectrophotometer cuvette. This apparatus was used to study the conditions for efficient introduction of functional RNA into plant protoplasts using RNAs of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). Electroporation under optimal conditions resulted in the production of TMV and CMV in 80% of the protoplasts from tobacco cell line BY2. Infection by TMVRNA occurred in 60% ofVinca roseasuspension culture protoplasts and in 40% of tobacco mesophyll protoplasts. Electroporation in the presence of TMV and CMV particles also resulted in infection, suggesting that pores larger than 30 nm are formed. The advantages and uses of the electrical method for introduction of functional RNA are discussed.
