Rotavirus (RV) infection is a major cause of dehydrating diarrhea in children all over the world, especially in developing country. VP7 and VP4 are major outer capsid protein and they are  primary candidates for inclusion in a subunit or recombinant. Vp6 is main virus protein, can induce body to produce antibody. So introducing VP7,VP4 and VP6 genes into carrot to develop edible plant vaccine of rotaviruses would change the traditional means of production of vaccines and the cost of vaccine production would be reduced greatly. It is provided with commercial meaning and applicative prospect. In this study , hypocotyls were used as the explant,vp4,vp6 and vp7 genes were introduced into carrot by Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA4404, and high-efficient genetic transformation system of carrot were established,such as: Infected times, co-cultural condition, Kan sensitive experiments, Cab and Cef contrastive experiments. Thee results indicated that: 1. 7d seedling, 2 d of co-cultivation and 15 min of infection of system. Media of resistant callus: B5 + 0.1 mg/L 2, 4-D + 0.2 mg/L KT + 75 mg/L Kan + 500 mg/L Cab. Media of resistant shoots:B5 + 100 mg/L Kan + 500 mg/L Cab. Media of resistant root: B5 + 0.1 mg/L IBA + 75 mg/L Kan + 300 mg/L Cef. 2. Hundreds of regenerated Kan-resistant carrot plantlets were gained and analyzed by PCR,58 of 156 plantlets were confirmed that the VP6 gene had been inserted into plant genome;84 of 172 plantlets were confirmed that the VP7 gene had been inserted into plant genome;31 of 80 plantlets were confirmed that the VP4 gene had been inserted into plant genome. 3. Resistant plants were covered with plastic velamen and gradually opened the plastic velamen. The resistance of plants grows well and increases. The survival rate enhanced 35 %.Compare with land, death rate in the greenhouse reduced 49.5 % in low temperature jarovization. 4. RT-PCR detection showed primarily the transcription of VP6 and VP7.T1 plantlets with VP6,VP7 genes were further confirmed by PCR,PCR- Southern and Southern blot that the target gene had been inserted into the carrot genome. 5. PCR analysis for 7 transgenic plants in T1 generation showed two of them closed to 1:1.Other two plants closed to 1:3.
