In vitro development of early proembryos and plant regeneration via microculture in Oryza sativa

Two convenient and efficient microculture techniques (liquid droplet and shallow-layered culture) were used to rear 2-day-old and 3 to 4 day-old proembryos in rice. Among four cultivars, growth rate and frequency of embryogenesis were higher in the japonica cultivars than in the indica cultivars during proembryo culture. Two-day-old proembryos could grow and form callus only in Km8p and N6 among four kinds of tested media, and plantlets regenerated via organogenesis. Plant regeneration from callus initiated from three- and four-day-old proembryos occurred through somatic embryogenesis and organogenesis. For in vitro embryogenesis it was essential to supplement the medium with 14 amino acids and coconut milk. The highest frequency of embryogenesis and the frequency of total induction after 14 days of culture were approximately 42% and 95% for 3-day-old proembryos, and 45% and 100% for 4-day-old proembryos, respectively. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Gene transfer into isolated and cultured tobacco zygotes by a specially designed device for electroporation

 We have established a technique for isolating, culturing and transforming tobacco zygotes. Zygotes were isolated by microdissection or enzymatic maceration from fertilized embryo sacs. Viable zygotes cocultured with mesophyll protoplasts underwent first division after 3 days of culture. Zygotes isolated by microdissection underwent a higher frequency of first division (61.2%) than those isolated by enzymatic maceration (30.5%). Globular embryos were formed only from microdissected zygotes, at a frequency of 8.7% after 1–2 weeks in culture. An efficient millicell device for the electroporation of DNA into zygotes was established. The electroporated zygotes divided in vitro at a frequency of 54.6% and developed into proembryos. Introduced GFP gene constructs showed transient expression in about 2.6% of the electroporated tobacco zygotes.

Low-temperature treatment of tobacco ovaries improves the isolation, viability, and embryogenic potential of two-celled proembryos

The influence of low-temperature treatment of ovaries on the isolation and subsequent culture of two-celled proembryo in vitro was explored in tobacco. The efficiency of isolation of two-celled proembryos was significantly improved, by an average of 23.47?% after treatment of ovaries at 4°C for 5?C24?h. Cell viability and polarity of two-celled proembryos, as assessed by organelle distribution, growth pattern, and cell wall component distribution, were all well maintained after cold treatment. Furthermore, in vitro cultivated two-celled proembryos divided normally, with timing paralleling that of two-celled proembryos isolated from fresh ovaries. Unexpectedly, the division frequency of two-celled proembryos was significantly improved by cold treatment. These results demonstrate that low-temperature treatment of tobacco ovaries was beneficial for two-celled proembryo manipulation in vitro, by not only improving isolation efficiency but also by promoting cell division and improving the potential for further cultivation.     

Isolation of Fertilized Embryo Sacs and Zygotes and Triggering of Zygote Division in Vitro in Nicotiana tabacum

Three methods were established to isolate fertilized embryo sacs in Nicotiana tabacum, i. e. enzymatic maceration combined either with shaking, microdissection or grinding respectively. Living fertilized embryo sacs of various developmental stages after fertilization could be isolated successfully by these methods. Each method had its own adoptation to the materials of different developmental stages. Among them the method of enzymatic maceration combined with grinding was the best:Ovules were first treated in enzymatic mixture (1% cellulase R-10, 0.5% macerozyme R-10, 12% mannitol, pH 5.7) for about 30 min. Then droplets of the ovule suspension were gentlely grinded by a flat-headed glass rod. After grinding several droplets of mannitol solution (8%～ 10%) were added for releasing and washing embryo sacs. Compared with the other two methods this method was more convenent and had higher isolation efficiency. Isolation of fertilized embryo sacs offered a good means for microscopic observation on the postfertilization development including synergid degeneration, endosperm formation and zygotic changes without interference by the surrounding sporophytic tissue. Living zygotes and endosperm cells could be further isolated by a second enzymatic maceration procedure followed by brief micromanipulation. Several characters had been found to distinguish the protoplas'ts of free zygotes from those of other cell sources. Isolated zygotes were cultured in microchambers (Millicell-CM) feeded with macrocultured mesophyll protoplasts. The first division of zygotes was induced, resulting in proembryos consisting of two cells.     

Direct embryogenesis from single mesophyll protoplasts in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)

Summary We used a tetraploid clone derived from an anther culture operation of Ladak alfalfa to study the pathway of direct embryogenesis from leaf-mesophyll protoplasts. About 72% of the protoplasts divided, and 7% of those produced proembryos. Approximately 38% of the proembryos developed into green embryos, and 33% initiated calluses. Other proembryos dedifferentiated into calluses which later redifferentiated embryos. Sixteen percent of the embryos developed directly into plants, whereas 81% produced plants indirectly via secondary embryos. The remaining 3% of the primary embryos failed to develop into plants. The lowest plating efficiency for direct embryogenesis was 0.3%. The high percentage of direct embryogenesis observed was related to the genetic nature of the clone, low density of liquid medium, low protoplast culture density, and the composition of culture media.Contribution no. 90-61-J from the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station.     

Effect of periodic high-frequency vibration with rigid spheres added on high solids enzymatic hydrolysis of steam-exploded corn straw

The periodic low-frequency force can improve mixing efficiency and reduce water constraint, thus intensifying the high solids enzymatic hydrolysis. However, the availability of intensification methods for the periodic force with different frequencies needs to be studied. The periodic high-frequency vibration with rigid spheres added as another intensification method was proposed to shorten the time of water constraint and improve efficiency. Within this study, glucan and xylan conversions in periodic high-frequency vibration with rigid spheres added enzymatic hydrolysis (PVEH) increased by 8.3%-35% and 5.0%-33.5%, respectively, with solid loading increasing from 15% to 25%, compared with those in static state enzymatic hydrolysis (SEH). The physical properties variations of substrate indirectly proved the higher efficiency of PVEH. Based on the change regularity of constrained water release, PVEH was divided into three stages. The effects of micromixing and macromixing in three stages were analyzed. Additionally, the efficiency of high solids enzymatic hydrolysis can be enhanced by using proper intensification methods in different stages.     

Somatic embryogenesis in cell suspension cultures of Acacia sinuata (Lour.) Merr.

Summary Suspension cultures initiated from calluses derived from seedling leaf explants of Acacia sinuata (Lour.) Merr. produced somatic embryos. Embryogenic callus was induced on semisolid MS (Murashige and Skoog, 1962) medium supplemented with 4.52 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2.22 μM 6-benzylaminopurine. A high frequency of somatic embryos was induced in MS liquid medium supplemented with 4.52 μM 2,4-D and 10% coconut water. Further studies on ontogeny of somatic embryos showed that the cells destined to become somatic embryos divided into spherical proembryos. Subsequent development led to the formation of globular, heart, torpedo-shaped and cotyledonary-stage embryos. The conversion of somatic embryos occurred on auxin-free MS medium. Effects of various auxins, cytokinins, carbohydrates and amino acids in enhancing productin, of somatic embryos were studied. MS medium supplemented with 87.64 mM sucrose and 342.46 μM glutamine promoted higher somatic embryo production whereas cytokinin had no effect and led to recallusing of embryos. About 8–10% of embryos converted into plants.     

Construction and Analysis of cDNA Libraries from Proembryos and just Differentiating Young Embryos in Rice

Two cDNA libraries were constructed from microdissected 214 rice proembryos (2-3 d after pollination) and 121 just differentiating young embryos (3-5 d after pollination) respectively through RT-PCR technique. The primary libraries had a total of 3.7×10 phages for the proembryos and a total of 2.5×10 phages for the just differentiating young embryos, in which 96% of the phages were recombinants. Insert sizes ranging from 400 bp to 3?500 bp were obtained. All of theabove mentioned accorded with the general requirements of cDNA library construction.
