Somatic embryogenesis is a unique process in plant cells. For example, embryogenic cells (EC) of carrot (Daucus carota) maintained in a medium containing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) regenerate whole plants via somatic embryogenesis after the depletion of 2,4-D. Although some genes such as C-ABI3 and C-LEC1 have been found to be involved in somatic embryogenesis, the critical molecular and cellular mechanisms for somatic embryogenesis are unknown. To characterize the early mechanism in the induction of somatic embryogenesis, we isolated genes expressed during the early stage of somatic embryogenesis after 2,4-D depletion. Subtractive hybridization screening and subsequent RNA gel blot analysis suggested a candidate gene, Carrot Early Somatic Embryogenesis 1 (C-ESE1). C-ESE1 encodes a protein that has agglutinin and S-locus-glycoprotein domains and its expression is highly specific to primordial cells of somatic embryo. Transgenic carrot cells with reduced expression of C-ESE1 had wide intercellular space and decreased polysaccharides on the cell surface and showed delayed development in somatic embryogenesis. The importance of cell-to-cell attachment in somatic embryogenesis is discussed. 相似文献

Somatic embryogenesis plays a significant role in plant regeneration and requires complex cellular, molecular, and biochemical processes for embryo initiation and development associated with plant epigenetics. Epigenetic regulation encompasses many sensitive events and plays a vital role in gene expression through DNA methylation, chromatin remodelling, and small RNAs. Recently, regulation of epigenetic mechanisms has been recognized as the most promising occurrences during somatic embryogenesis in plants. A few reports demonstrated that the level of DNA methylation can alter in embryogenic cells under in vitro environments. Changes or modification in DNA methylation patterns is linked with regulatory mechanisms of various candidate marker genes, involved in the initiation and development of somatic embryogenesis in plants. This review summarizes the current scenario of the role of epigenetic mechanisms as candidate markers during somatic embryogenesis. It also delivers a comprehensive and systematic analysis of more recent discoveries on expression of embryogenic-regulating genes during somatic embryogenesis, epigenetic variation. Biotechnological applications of epigenetics as well as new opportunities or future perspectives in the development of somatic embryogenesis studies are covered. Further research on such strategies may serve as exciting interaction models of epigenetic regulation in plant embryogenesis and designing novel approaches for plant productivity and crop improvement at molecular levels. 相似文献

Gene expression patterns were profiled during somatic embryogenesis in a regeneration-proficient maize hybrid line, Hi II, in an effort to identify genes that might be used as developmental markers or targets to optimize regeneration steps for recovering maize plants from tissue culture. Gene expression profiles were generated from embryogenic calli induced to undergo embryo maturation and germination. Over 1,000 genes in the 12,060 element arrays showed significant time variation during somatic embryo development. A substantial number of genes were downregulated during embryo maturation, largely histone and ribosomal protein genes, which may result from a slowdown in cell proliferation and growth during embryo maturation. The expression of these genes dramatically recovered at germination. Other genes up-regulated during embryo maturation included genes encoding hydrolytic enzymes (nucleases, glucosidases and proteases) and a few storage genes (an α-zein and caleosin), which are good candidates for developmental marker genes. Germination is accompanied by the up-regulation of a number of stress response and membrane transporter genes, and, as expected, greening is associated with the up-regulation of many genes encoding photosynthetic and chloroplast components. Thus, some, but not all genes typically associated with zygotic embryogenesis are significantly up or down-regulated during somatic embryogenesis in Hi II maize line regeneration. Although many genes varied in expression throughout somatic embryo development in this study, no statistically significant gene expression changes were detected between total embryogenic callus and callus enriched for transition stage somatic embryos.Supplementary material is available for this article at 相似文献

Somatic embryogenesis is defined as a process in which a bipolar structure, resembling a zygotic embryo, develops from a non-zygotic cell without vascular connection with the original tissue. Somatic embryos are used for studying regulation of embryo development, but also as a tool for large scale vegetative propagation. Somatic embryogenesis is a multi-step regeneration process starting with formation of proembryogenic masses, followed by somatic embryo formation, maturation, desiccation and plant regeneration. Although great progress has been made in improving the protocols used, it has been revealed that some treatments, coinciding with increased yield of somatic embryos, can cause adverse effects on the embryo quality, thereby impairing germination and ex vitro growth of somatic embryo plants. Accordingly, ex vitro growth of somatic embryo plants is under a cumulative influence of the treatments provided during the in vitro phase. In order to efficiently regulate the formation of plants via somatic embryogenesis it is important to understand how somatic embryos develop and how the development is influenced by different physical and chemical treatments. Such knowledge can be gained through the construction of fate maps representing an adequate number of morphological and molecular markers, specifying critical developmental stages. Based on this fate map, it is possible to make a model of the process. The mechanisms that control cell differentiation during somatic embryogenesis are far from clear. However, secreted, soluble signal molecules play an important role. It has long been observed that conditioned medium from embryogenic cultures can promote embryogenesis. Active components in the conditioned medium include endochitinases, arabinogalactan proteins and lipochitooligosaccharides. 相似文献

Embryo production through somatic embryogenesis can

Somatic embryogenesis is the process by which somatic cells, under induction conditions, generate embryogenic cells, which go through a series of morphological and biochemical changes that result in the formation of a somatic embryo. Somatic embryogenesis differs from zygotic embryogenesis in that it is observable, its various culture conditions can be controlled, and a lack of material is not a limiting factor for experimentation. These characteristics have converted somatic embryogenesis into a model system for the study of morphological, physiological, molecular and biochemical events occurring during the onset and development of embryogenesis in higher plants; it also has potential biotechnological applications. The focus of this review is on embryo development through somatic embryogenesis and especially the factors affecting cell and embryo differentiation. 相似文献

Somatic embryogenesis is an example of totipotency and is used as a model system for studying embryogenesis. A reproducible tissue culture system was established for the large-scale induction of Arabidopsis somatic embryos. The method allows maintenance of high embryogenic competence over a one-year period. Using this tissue culture system, the expression of embryo-specific genes (ABI3, LEC1, FUS3) was detected in embryogenic cells and somatic embryos. Exogenous application of abscisic acid enhanced the expression of some late-embryogenesis-abundant (LEA) protein genes in somatic embryos. The experiments show that the method can be used to obtain sufficient amounts of embryogenic material for basic molecular analyses. 相似文献

Expression of the QrCPE gene is associated with the induction and development of oak somatic embryos

Somatic embryogenesis is a powerful tool for plant regeneration and also provides a suitable material for investigating the molecular events that control the induction and development of somatic embryos. This study focuses on expression analysis of the QrCPE gene (which encodes a glycine-rich protein) during the initiation of oak somatic embryos from leaf explants and also during the histodifferentiation of somatic embryos. Northern blot and in situ hybridization were used to determine the specific localisation of QrCPE mRNA. The results showed that the QrCPE gene is developmentally regulated during the histodifferentiation of somatic embryos and that its expression is tissue- and genotype-dependent. QrCPE was strongly expressed in embryogenic cell aggregates and in embryogenic nodular structures originated in leaf explants as well as in the protodermis of somatic embryos from which new embryos are generated by secondary embryogenesis. This suggests a role for the gene during the induction of somatic embryos and in the maintenance of embryogenic competence. The QrCPE gene was highly expressed in actively dividing cells during embryo development, suggesting that it participates in embryo histodifferentiation. The localised expression in the root cap initial cells of cotyledonary somatic embryos and in the root cap of somatic seedlings also suggests that the gene may be involved in the fate of root cap cells. 相似文献

The expression pattern of the LEC1 and FUS3 genes during somatic embryogenesis in Arabidopsis explants (immature zygotic embryos) induced in vitro was analysed, using
Real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). The analysis revealed differential expression of LEC1 but not FUS3 within a 30 day time course of somatic embryo development, and a significant auxin-dependent upregulation of LEC1 was found over the time course. In contrast to embryogenic culture, the level of LEC1 and FUS3 expression was noticeably lower in non-embryogenic callus of Col-0 and hormonal mutants (cbp20 and axr4-1) with low SE-efficiency. In addition, the expression profile of LEC1 and FUS3 was followed in the embryogenic culture derived from 35S::LEC2-GR explants. A significant increase of LEC1 but not FUS3 activity was observed under LEC2 overexpression induced in auxin-treated explants. The work provides further experimental
evidence on LEC gene involvement in the embryogenic response in Arabidopsis somatic cells, and also implicates LEC1 function in more advanced stages of SE culture in relation to somatic embryo differentiation and development. 相似文献

Somatic embryogenesis, the in vitro developmental program by which somatic cells are reprogrammed to undergo cellular and molecular changes that make them competent to produce somatic embryos, has been achieved with many woody plants. The program involves the stages of competence acquisition, induction and expression of the morphogenic pathway by the cultured cells and tissues. The ability to express the program in cultured cells/tissues is regulated by many factors, including genotype, explant type and age and culture conditions. In many woody plants, somatic embryogenesis was achieved with mature, immature explants or both. Juvenile tissues as immature and mature zygotic embryos are regarded best explants to establish embryogenic cultures in woody plants and potential to obtain the cultures decline with increasing maturity of the explant. 相似文献

The Arabidopsis thaliana LEC1 gene regulates embryo morphology and seed maturation. For a better understanding of its function, we isolated a carrot (Daucus carota L. cv. US-Harumakigosun) counterpart of this gene, C-LEC1, from a cDNA library of carrot somatic embryos, since carrot is a better model plant for preparing large quantities of somatic embryos at the same developmental stage. The predicted amino acid sequence of C-LEC1 is similar to that of LEC1 and contains regions that are conserved in the heme-activated protein 3 (HAP3) subunit of plants, animals and microorganisms. C-LEC1 expression was detected in embryogenic cells, somatic embryos, and developing seeds. In situ hybridization analysis revealed C-LEC1 expression in the peripheral region of the embryos but not in the endosperm. Expression of C-LEC1 driven by Arabidopsis LEC1 promoter was able to complement the defects of the Arabidopsis lec1-1 mutant. These results suggest that C-LEC1 is a functional homolog of Arabidopsis LEC1, an important regulator of zygotic and somatic embryo development. 相似文献

Somatic embryogenesis is a notable illustration of plant totipotency and involves reprogramming of development in somatic
cells toward the embryogenic pathway. Auxins are key components as their exogenous application recuperates the embryogenic
potential of the mitotically quiescent somatic cells. In order to unravel the molecular basis of somatic embryogenesis, cDNA
library was made from the regeneration proficient wheat leaf base segments treated with auxin. In total, 1440 clones were
sequenced and among these 1,196 good quality sequences were assembled into 270 contigs and 425 were singletons. By reverse
northern analysis, a total of 57 clones were found to be upregulated during somatic embryogenesis, 64 during 2,4-D treatment,
and 170 were common to 2,4-D treatment and somatic embryogenesis. A substantial number of genes involved in hormone response,
signal transduction cascades, defense, anti-oxidation, programmed cell death/senescence and cell division were identified
and characterized partially. Analysis of data of select genes suggests that the induction phase of somatic embryogenesis is
accompanied by the expression of genes that may also be involved in zygotic embryogenesis. The developmental reprogramming
process may in fact involve multiple cellular pathways and unfolding of as yet unknown molecular events. Thus, an interaction
network draft using bioinformatics and system biology strategy was constructed. The outcome of a systematic and comprehensive
analysis of somatic embryogenesis associated interactome in a monocot leaf base system is presented.

Mechanisms of somatic embryogenesis in cell cultures: Physiology,biochemistry, and molecular biology
A. Komamine R. Kawahara M. Matsumoto S. Sunabori T. Toya A. Fujiwara M. Tsukahara J. Smith M. Ito H. Fukuda K. Nomura T. Fujimura 《In vitro cellular & developmental biology. Plant》1992,28(1):11-14
Summary One of the most characteristic cell functions in plants is totipotency. Somatic embryogenesis can be regarded as a model system
for the investigation of mechanisms of totipotency, because a high frequency and synchronous embryogenic system from single
somatic cells has been established in carrot suspension cultures. Four phases are recognized in this process, and several
molecular markers, viz. polypeptides, mRNAs, antigens against monoclonal antibodies, can be detected during the expression
of totipotency, but they disappear during its loss. Four organ-specific genes have been isolated from hypocotyls and roots
by differential screening. They were expressed preferentially after the globular-heart stages of embryogenesis, and were strongly
suppressed by auxin. A CEM 1 gene was isolated by differential screening of embryogenic cell clusters. This gene was expressed
strongly and transiently during the proglobular and globular stages. The sequence of CEM 1 was found to encode a polypeptide
showing high homology to the elongation factor isolated from eucaryotic cells. Thus good progress is being made in understanding
the basic mechanisms of somatic embryogenesis.

Somatic embryogenesis is crucial for the propagation of endangered Ecuadorian orchid species, among them Cyrtochilum loxense, in view of the fact that their number in nature or in collections is quite reduced. One of the genes expressed during somatic and zygotic embryogenesis is Somatic Embryogenesis Receptor-like Kinase (SERK). Despite the development of somatic embryogenesis protocols for orchids, no SERK genes have been isolated from this family. This is the first report on the isolation of a full-length orchid SERK sequence, namely that of Cyrtochilum loxense (ClSERK). The identity of ClSERK was inferred by the presence of all domains typical of SERK proteins: a signal peptide, a leucine zipper domain, five LRRs, a serine proline-rich domain, a transmembrane domain, a kinase domain, and the C-terminal region. We have observed that the ClSERK gene is highly expressed in embryogenic calluses generated from protocorms at the time of appearance of embryonic morphological features. At later stages when embryos become well visible on calluses, ClSERK gene expression decreases. Compared to early stages of embryo formation on calluses, the expression detected in leaf tissue is far lower, thus suggesting a role of this gene during development. 相似文献
