细叶黄芪叶肉原生质体植株再生

从细叶黄芪(Astragalus tenuis)外植体愈伤组织分化出的再生苗叶片分离原生质体。原生质体培养在改良 K8p 培养基中形成了愈伤组织。增殖后的愈伤组织转入分化培养基中分化出苗。幼苗在生根培养基中长出不定根,再生成为完整植株。再生苗叶肉原生质体在 AY培养基中,种子无菌苗叶肉原生质体在改良 K8p 或 AY 培养基中均不能形成愈伤组织。较低的2,4-D 浓度有利于原生质体愈伤组织的形成和分化,过高的2,4-D 浓度对愈伤组织的形成和分化有不利的影响。     

羊草与灰色赖草F1代细胞悬浮系的建立及植株再生

本研究以羊草(L eym us ch inensis)与灰色赖草(L eym us cinereus)杂种F1代幼穗为外植体诱导愈伤组织,在3.0 m g/L 2,4-D M S培养基上继代1次后,转入不同浓度激素(2,4-D、IAA、KT)配比和不同浓度蔗糖的M S液体培养基进行振荡培养,建立杂种F1代细胞悬浮系和植株再生体系.结果表明,细胞悬浮培养时,M S 1.0 m g/L2,4-D 0.1 m g/L KT 4%蔗糖的液体培养基最佳;悬浮细胞分化时,1.0 m g/L 2,4-D 0.1 m g/L KT 4%蔗糖 M S和1.0 m g/L 2,4-D 4%蔗糖 M S培养的悬浮细胞在1.0 m g/L NAA 0.5 m g/L KT M S分化培养基上的绿苗分化率分别达到83%和80%.细胞悬浮系及再生体系的建立为杂种F1代育性恢复的研究奠定了基础.     

月光花素对彩叶芋愈伤组织细胞生长和分化的影响

在含有NAA0.2mg/L,2.4-D 0.2mg/L的MS基础培养基中添加月光花素培养彩叶芋愈伤组织,结果显示,低浓度的月光花素能促进愈伤组织生长,高浓度则有明显的抑制作用,最适浓度为1.0~2.0mg/L;培养两个月后,添加适宜浓度的月光花素(0.2~2.0mg/L)的培养基能促进体细胞分化和植株再生,而高浓度(10.0mg/L)处理和对照均未能分化出绿苗。表明适宜浓度的月光花素在合适的生长素剂量的协同作用下,对植物愈伤组织细胞的生长和分化有较强的调节作用。     

Endogenous hormone levels in explants and in embryogenic and non-embryogenic cultures of carrot

Carrot ( Daucus carota L. F1 hybrid Starca) excised hypocotyls were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium with and without 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) to determine the effect of this plant growth regulator on their further development and their endogenous hormone levels. Culture in the absence of 2,4-D stimulated root development at one end of the hypocotyl segments and increased the endogenous levels of free indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), zeatin/zeatin riboside and N ⁶(Δ²-isopentenyl) adenine/ N ⁶(Δ²-isopentenyl) adenosine, as determined by radio-immunoassay. On the other hand, the presence of 2,4-D in the culture medium promoted callus induction and proliferation, together with abscisic acid (ABA) accumulation, in the hypocotyl segments during the first weeks of culture. When the callus segments generated in the hypocotyl sections cultured in the presence of 2,4-D were cultivated further, the development of two callus types was observed, one composed of preglobular and globular embryos and the other translucent, watery and lacking any sign of organisation. The embryos of the first type germinated when callus segments were transferred to regeneration conditions, while no change was observed when the second type was induced to regenerate. Higher levels of free IAA and ABA were obtained in the embryogenic calli when compared to the non-embryogenic, while no differences were observed among callus types in the other hormones evaluated. The possible role of the different plant hormones during induction of somatic embryogenesis is discussed.     

小麦成熟胚愈伤组织诱导及分化研究

以2个小麦品种成熟胚为外植体进行离体培养,研究了不同预处理、不同2,4-D浓度及与KT组合、不同蔗糖浓度等因素对愈伤组织诱导及分化的影响。结果表明:4℃低温预处理可提高愈伤组织的出愈率及再生苗率,2个材料的出愈率及再生苗率均达到90%和30%以上;在不同预处理条件下,2,4-D浓度对出愈率及再生苗率的影响与基因型有关,2,4-D浓度为1~2 mg/L更有利于愈伤组织诱导及分化;附加KT能缓解高浓度2,4-D对再生苗率的抑制作用,而对于在1、2 mg/L 2,4-D的培养基中附加KT则不表现这种作用;蔗糖浓度则在30 g/L条件下更有利于愈伤组织诱导。因此通过4℃低温预处理,在MS基本培养基中附加1~2mg/L 2,4-D及30 g/L蔗糖亦可促进小麦成熟胚愈伤组织的诱导和分化。     

Effect of Hormone Treatment on Growth Bud Formation and Free Amine and Hydroxycinnamoyl Putrescine Levels in Leaf Explant of Nicotiana tabacum Cultivated in Vitro

Foliar explants of Nicotiana tabacum cv Xanthi n.c. were cultured on four different media: a basal medium, basal medium plus benzyladenine, basal medium plus 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and the basal medium containing both hormones. No differentiation or cell division occurred in leaf explants cultured on the basal medium. Addition of benzyladenine caused the formation of buds on the explants, while 2,4-D caused callus formation and proliferation. Likewise, only callus was formed when explants were cultured on medium containing both hormones, but growth was significantly greater than that of callus grown on a medium containing 2,4-D alone. The levels of amines and hydroxycinnamoyl putrescines were determined in the four types of explants. In nongrowing explants, amines (except an aromatic amine, tyramine) and hydroxycinnamoyl putrescines were always at a low level and only small changes in their concentrations were observed. In callus cultures, amine (except an aromatic amine, phenethylamine) and hydroxycinnamoyl putrescine levels were higher than those found in bud cultures. In all the media, transitory accumulation of aromatic amines occurred after a few days of culture. Higher levels of hydroxycinnamoyl putrescines were attained in callus cultures with a slow growth rate (2,4-D alone) than in callus cultures with a fast growth rate (benzyladenine + 2,4-D). The formation of buds was accompanied by significant changes in putrescine and hydroxycinnamoyl putrescine levels. Increasing levels were found during the first 14 days in culture when cell multiplication was rapid, followed by a sharp decline after 20 days in culture as the rate of cell division decreased and differentiation took place. The relationship among amines, hydroxycinnamoyl putrescines, and cell division and bud formation is discussed.     

SOMATIC EMBRYOGENESIS AND ORGANOGENESIS FROM CALLUS CULTURES OF SOLANUM CAROLINENSE

Culture of stem segments of Solanum carolinense L. on medium supplemented with 10 mg/1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 1 mg/1 kinetin, induced callus formation. When subcultured on medium lacking 2,4-D but containing a cytokinin, the callus regenerated. The mode of regeneration depended on the type and concentration of cytokinin employed; high concentrations of benzyladenine and all concentrations of kinetin promoted organogenesis, while low concentrations of benzyladenine induced somatic embryogenesis in addition to organogenesis. With age and continued subculture on 2,4-D containing medium, callus progressively lost its ability to regenerate when the auxin was replaced by cytokinin. In conjunction with previous studies on regeneration from anther cultures of S. carolinense, it appears that in both cases, 2,4-D is required for callus initiation and proliferation but must be exchanged for a cytokinin before differentiation will occur. However, since it was not possible to induce embryogenesis in pollen-derived callus, developmental potential may be influenced by the ploidy level of responding cells in culture.     

Effects of plant growth regulators on growth and morphogenesis in tissue culture of Chondracanthus chamissoi (Gigartinales,Rhodophyta)

Chondracanthus chamissoi (C. Agardh) Kützing (Gigartinales, Rhodophyta) is an edible species and commercialised for carrageenan production in Chile. Investigations on growth and development are needed to improve its cultivation; therefore, this study aims to evaluate the effects of plant growth regulators (PGRs) on its growth and morphogenesis. PGRs tested were two auxins [indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D)] and one cytokinin (benzylaminopurine (BA)) in concentrations of 0.5, 5.0 and 50.0 μM. These PGRs were added to seawater enriched with half strength of von Stosch solution and were gelled with 0.6 % agar, and treatment control (without PGR addition) was conducted simultaneously. Apical and intercalary segments were used as initial explants. Each treatment was tested with six replicates of five axenic explants, and statistical analyses were performed. After culturing in a solid medium for 10 weeks to induce growth and callus formation, explants were cultured in liquid medium with the same experimental conditions for 10 weeks. Effects of auxins (IAA and 2,4-D) and the cytokinin BA on growth rates of apical segments of C. chamissoi were not significant, while low concentration of IAA stimulated the growth of intercalary segments. On the other hand, high concentrations of BA and IAA stimulated the callus formation in apical and intercalary segments, respectively. In liquid medium, PGR did not have a significant effect on growth rates of apical segments, while 2,4-D in concentrations from 0.5 to 50.0 μM stimulated growth of intercalary segments, and formation of lateral branches was stimulated by low 2,4-D in apical segments. These results suggest that PGRs have a regulatory role on callus formation and growth of specific explants of C. chamissoi. Furthermore, the formation of lateral branches stimulated by auxin could be used for seedling production under controlled conditions and could improve the micropropagation and cultivation of C. chamissoi in the Chilean coast.     

Plant regeneration from embryogenic suspension cultures of Chinese yam (Dioscorea opposita thunb.)

A competent, embryogenic suspension culture of Chinese yam (Dioscorea opposita Thunb. cv. ‘Nagaimo’) has been obtained. Embryogenic callus was induced from stem segments cultured on an agar-solidified MS medium containing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). One month following placement of the embryogenic callus in a liquid medium containing 2,4-D, the embryogenic tissue began to proliferate rapidly. Established suspension cultures consisted almost entirely of early-stage pro-embryos with very little contamination from non-embryogenic tissues. Under optimum conditions, suspension culture packed cell volume increased 2.5-fold per week. Following transfer of the tissue to a hormone-free medium, the embryogenic tissue developed. Globular embryos were formed within 4 weeks and addition of benzyl adenine further enhanced development and germination. Plantlets were regenerated by culturing embryos on a hormone-free agar-solidified medium.     

发根农杆菌LBA9402Bin19转化红豆草及再生转基因植株

Hypocotyl segments of Onobrychis viciaefolia were transformed by Agrobacterium rhizogenes LBA9402 which harboured pBin19 and pRi1855. Seedling age and preculture time of hypocotyl segments influenced the transformation frequency. Paper electrophoresis revealed that 70% of single hairy root cultures could synthesize agropine. Calli were induced from hairy root segments on MS medium containing 0-9.05 mumol/L 2,4-D and 0-2.22 mumol/L 6-BA at first, then they were transferred onto MS0 medium without kanamycin for regeneration. Constitution and concentration of phytohormones in callus induction media affected subsequent regeneration of calluses on MS0 medium remarkably. Regeneration frequency and shoot number per callus declined when 2,4-D concentration in callus induction media increased from 4.52 to 9.05 mumol/L, while they ascended when 6-BA in callus induction media increased from 0 to 2.22 mumol/L. On MS medium supplemented with 4.52 mumol/L 2,4-D and 2.22 mumol/L 6-BA, only 14.2% hairy root segments could produce calluses, but the regeneration frequency reached 58.1% and the shoot number per callus was 37.2. In 32 analysed plants regenerated from 8 kanamycin resistant hairy root lines, 25 were nptII positive and showed different copy numbers.

In vitro micropropagation of Ruscus aculeatus

We have developed three protocols for the rapid micropropagation of Ruscus aculeatus. The primary explants utilised were immature embryos, aerial buds excised from rhizomes and shoot buds regenerated from organogenic calli. In order to increase the plant regeneration from the primary explants, we used organogenic calli from cladode, stem and rhizome segments. We tested more than 20 culture media for callus induction and shoot regeneration and the best results were obtained when rhizome segments were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 0.5 mg dm⁻³ 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 1 mg dm⁻³ kinetin.     

Growth and tropane alkaloid production inAgrobacterium transformed roots and derived callus ofDatura

Small callus pieces excised from theAgrobacterium transformed root line D₂ ofDatura stramonium, were cultured onto solidified MS medium supplemented with a 1.0 μM kinetin and three different concentrations (0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 μM) of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and were examined for their alkaloid productivity in relation to organization level and growth rate. Growth of transformed roots (in a MS liquid medium without plant growth regulators) was greater than that of transformed calli excised from them and cultured separately. The addition of 1.0 μM 2,4-D to the culture medium had a positive effect on callus biomass production, while it inhibited root formation by this tissue (the lower the 2,4-D concentration in the medium the greater the number of roots which emerged from the calli). Hyoscyamine production was also higher in the transformed roots than in the transformed calli, and in these tissues the production of hyoscyamine was positively correlated with organogenesis index (i.e. its ability for rooting). At the same time, the epoxidation of hyoscyamine to scopolamine only took place in the transformed calli. This occurred to a greater extent at the lower concentrations of 2,4-D in the culture medium. The mode through which the 2,4-D could control the alkaloid production of transformed callus is discussed.

PROLIFERATION AND PLANT REGENERATION FROM THE NODAL REGION OF ZEA MAYS L. (MAIZE,GRAMINEAE) EMBRYOS

Immature embryos of Zea mays L. (maize), cultured on Murashige and Skoog's medium containing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D, 0.25–1.0 mg/l) and sucrose (3, 6 and 12%), produced a narrow ridge of tissue in the nodal region of the embryo axis, opposite the scutellum. Only those embryos which were placed with the scutellum in contact with medium showed such a response. The ridge of tissue further proliferated and formed a compact and opaque callus that appeared similar to the scutellar callus. Morphogenesis took place on media containing low concentrations of both 2,4-D and sucrose. Plant regeneration was achieved and is interpreted to take place by the precocious germination of somatic embryos. It is suggested that the ridge of tissue formed at the node may represent an evolutionarily extinct epiblast of the maize embryo and may be cotyledonary in nature.     

Influence of type of explant,plant growth regulators,salt composition of basal medium,and light on callogenesis and regeneration in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Passiflora suberosa</Emphasis> L. (Passifloraceae)

Passiflora suberosa is used in popular medicine, improvement programs, and as an ornamental plant. The goal of this study was to establish efficient protocols for plant regeneration and callus induction from nodal, internodal and leaf segments excised from in vitro-grown plants. The different morphogenetic responses were modulated by the type and concentration of plant growth regulators, according to the basal medium and light conditions. Shoot formation occurred through three pathways: (1) development of preexisting meristems, (2) direct organogenesis, and (3) indirect organogenesis. Development of preexisting meristems was observed from nodal segments (1 shoot/explant) in response to α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), picloram (PIC), and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), using two basal media (MS and MSM). Direct organogenesis in this species was obtained for the first time in this work, through shoot development from internodal segments in the presence of 6-benzyladenine (BA). The highest regeneration rates were achieved on MSM medium, regardless of the BA concentration. Indirect organogenesis was achieved from all explant types on media supplemented with BA, used alone or in combination with NAA. The highest regeneration efficiency was obtained from internodal segments cultured on MSM medium plus 44.4 μM BA. Compact, friable, or mucilaginous non-morphogenic calluses were induced by thidiazuron, PIC, 2,4-D, and NAA. High-yielding friable calluses obtained on MSM medium supplemented with 28.9 μM PIC are being used for the establishment of suspension cultures and further analysis of the production of bioactive compounds.     

Initiation of embryogenic cell suspensions of taro (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Colocasia esculenta</Emphasis> var. <Emphasis Type="Italic">esculenta</Emphasis>) and plant regeneration

Embryogenic callus was initiated by culturing in vitro taro corm slices on agar-solidified half-strength MS medium containing 2.0 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) for 20 days followed by transfer to 1.0 mg/L thidiazuron (TDZ). Callus was subsequently proliferated on solid medium containing 1.0 mg/L TDZ, 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 800 mg/L glutamine before transfer to liquid medium containing the same components but with reduced glutamine (100 mg/L). After 3 months in liquid culture on an orbital shaker, cytoplasmically dense cell aggregates began to form. Somatic embryogenesis was induced by plating suspension cells onto solid media containing reduced levels of hormones (0.1 mg/L TDZ, 0.05 mg/L 2,4-D), high concentrations of sucrose (40–50 g/L) and biotin (1.0 mg/L). Embryo maturation and germination was then induced on media containing 0.05 mg/L benzyladenine (BA) and 0.1 mg/L indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Histological studies of the developing embryos revealed the presence of typical shoot and root poles suggesting that these structures were true somatic embryos. The rate of somatic embryos formation was 500–3,000 per mL settled cell volume while approximately 60% of the embryos regenerated into plants.

In vitro propagation of guayule (Parthenium argentatum) — a rubber yielding shrub

Nodal explants (0.5 to 0.8 cm long) isolated from 2-year old shrubs of guayule, Parthenium argentatum Gray, when cultured on MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of KN, BAP, 2,4-D, 2,4-D + BAP, NAA and NAA + BAP produced callus tissues and shoots simultaneously with varying frequencies. Shoots were regenerated with a high frequency (80–88%) from callus on MS medium containing NAA + BAP with or without glutamine. Addition of glutamine to these media improved considerably the number of shoots formed from a known amount of callus. Shoots could be regenerated from 200 day old callus cultures with a very high frequency but the organogenetic capacity declined thereafter. Increase in the concentration of sucrose (upto 4%) significantly enhanced the shoot forming ability of callus, but higher concentrations (6%) suppressed it. Rooting was induced only in dark when IAA, IBA and NAA were used, but 2,4-D could induce them both in light and dark. The system is suitable for the mass propagation of this important rubber yielding plant.Abbreviations MS Murashige and Skoog (1962) - IAA Indole-3-acetic acid - IBA Indole-3-butyric acid - NAA -Naphthaleneacetic acid - 2,4-D 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - KN Kinetin - BAP 6-Benzylaminopurine     

Plantlets from somatic callus tissue of the woody legume Sesbania bispinosa (Jacq.) W. F. Wight

In vitro regeneration of plantlets and multiplication of Sesbania bispinosa (Jacq.) W.F. Wight plants from cultured callus tissue were demonstrated. Callus was established from both cotyledons and mature leaflets on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with BAP (0.5 mg/l) and 2,4-D (2 mg/l). Callus mediated shoot bud differentiation was studied under defined nutritional, hormonal and cultural conditions. Various concentrations of BAP or kinetin (Kn) with coconut milk (CM) in MS media induced different levels of shoot bud differentiation as well as multiplication. Multiple shoot bud differentiation occurred in most of the primary calli. The best medium for shoot bud differentiation from cotyledon derived callus, contained BAP (2 mg/l) and 15% CM (V/V). More efficient shoot bud organogenesis was recorded with BAP than Kn. Supplementation with CM in MS media accelerated shoot bud organogenesis in differentiating callus tissue. Rooting of differentiated shoots was achieved by a three step culture procedure involving (a) MS solid medium containing IBA (2 mg/l), (b) growth regulator free half strength MS medium with 1% charcoal, and (c) half strength MS liquid medium free of vitamins, growth regulators and charcoal.Abbreviations IAA indoleacetic acid - IBA indole-3-butyric acid - NAA naphthaleneacetic acid - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - BAP 6-benzylaminopurine - Kn kinetin - CM coconut milk - MS Murashige and Skoog's medium - SBI shoot bud inducing medium
