Moso bamboo ( Phyllostachys edulis ) is the most important monopodial bamboo species worldwide. Without a genetic transformation system, it is difficult to verify the functions of genes controlling important traits and conduct molecular breeding in moso bamboo. Here, we established a plant regenerat...
