Abstract: The differential expression of Chinese kale during regeneration has been analyzed by cDNA-AFLP and 2-D electrophoresis. The results indicated that the differential gene expression of Chinese kale adventitious bud occurred at RNA level, the differential band appeared in explants with adventitious bud occurring mainly in 200-600 bp; and the differential gene expression also occurred at protein level, 160 differential proteins have been observed, among which 122 (76.25% of total differential proteins) proteins' pI were 5-7. Of the total differential proteins, 124 (77.5% of total differential proteins) proteins' MW distributed at 40-70 kDa.
