Somatic embryogenesis (SE) was induced in female flower buds from mature Schisandra chinensis cultivar ‘Hongzhenzhu’. Somatic embryo structures were induced at a low frequency from unopened female flower buds and excised
unopened on Murashige and Skoog (MS) agar medium containing 4.0 mg l−1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). Friable embryogenic calli were induced from somatic embryo structures after three
to four subcultures on initiation medium. The frequencies of mature somatic embryo germination and plantlet conversion were
low, but increased in the presence of gibberellic acid (GA3). Some germinated somatic embryos could form friable embryogenic calli on medium without plant growth regulators (PGRs).
The germination and conversion frequencies of somatic embryos from embryogenic calli induced using PGR-free medium were higher
than for somatic embryos from embryogenic calli induced on medium containing 2,4-D. Most somatic embryos from 2,4-D-induced
embryogenic calli had trumpet-shaped embryos, and most somatic embryos from PGR-free medium–induced embryogenic calli had
two or three cotyledons. Histological observation indicated that two- and three-cotyledon embryos had defined shoot primordia,
but most of the trumpet-shaped embryos yielded plantlets that lacked or had poorly developed meristem tissue. Cytological
and random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analyses indicated no evidence of genetic variation in the plantlets of
somatic embryo origin. 相似文献

The production of ethylene and the endogenous content of polyamines (PAs) have been recorded during the early development,
maturation and germination of holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) somatic embryos. Ethylene production was high in embryogenic callus, immature somatic embryos and in explants showing
secondary embryogenesis, while it was lower in mature and germinating somatic embryos. A higher ethylene production was also
associated to the process of secondary embryogenesis. The exogenous application of 1-amino-1-cyclohexane carboxylic acid was
not significantly effective on the production of ethylene by holm oak somatic embryos. Total PAs were more abundant in embryogenic
callus and in both somatic and zygotic immature embryos, decreasing later on in the mature and germination phases. Immature
somatic embryos of holm oak and immature zygotic embryos contain high levels of spermidine (Spd), which decreased during maturation
and germination. Spermine (Spm) concentration was lower than that of Spd. Spm was more abundant in embryogenic callus and
immature zygotic embryos than in mature embryos. Ethylene production did not seem to interfere with PA metabolism. 相似文献

In this study we examined the effect of polyamines (PAs) putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm) on growth,
morphology evolution, endogenous PAs levels and nitric oxide (NO) release in Ocotea catharinensis somatic embryo cultures. We observed that Spd and Spm reduced culture growth, permitted embryo morphogenetic evolution from
the earliest to last embryo development stages, increased endogenous PAs levels, and induced NO release in O. catharinensis somatic embryos. On the other hand, Put had little effect on these parameters. Spd and Spm could successfully be used to
promote somatic embryo maturation in O. catharinensis. The results suggest that Spd and Spm have an important role during the growth, development and morphogenetic evolution of
somatic embryos, through alterations in the endogenous nitric oxide and PAs metabolism in this species. 相似文献

Efficient regeneration via somatic embryogenesis (SE) would be a valuable system for the micropropagation and genetic transformation
of sugar beet. This study evaluated the effects of basic culture media (MS and PGo), plant growth regulators, sugars and the
starting plant material on somatic embryogenesis in nine sugar beet breeding lines. Somatic embryos were induced from seedlings
of several genotypes via an intervening callus phase on PGo medium containing N6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Calli were mainly induced from cotyledons. Maltose was more effective for the induction of somatic
embryogenesis than was sucrose. There were significant differences between genotypes. HB 526 and SDM 3, which produced embryogenic
calli at frequencies of 25–50%, performed better than SDM 2, 8, 9 and 11. The embryogenic calli and embryos produced by this
method were multiplied by repeated subculture. Histological analysis of embryogenic callus cultures indicated that somatic
embryos were derived from single- or a small number of cells. 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) was ineffective for the
induction of somatic embryogenesis from seedlings but induced direct somatic embryogenesis from immature zygotic embryos (IEs).
Somatic embryos were mainly initiated from hypocotyls derived from the cultured IEs in line HB 526. Rapid and efficient regeneration
of plants via somatic embryogenesis may provide a system for studying the molecular mechanism of SE and a route for the genetic
transformation of sugar beet. 相似文献

A procedure for producing somatic embryos enriched with dibenzyl trisulfide (DTS) using a hormone-dependent culture system
is reported for Petiveria alliacea L. (Guinea hen weed). Leaf explants were cultured on a Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with a range of naphthaleneacetic
acid (NAA) concentrations and a fixed concentration of benzyladenine (BAP) at 11.0 μM and sucrose or glucose at 30 g l−1. Leaf explants cultured on all media types started to form callus at the cut surfaces of the discs 10–14 d after initiation.
The type of sugar used influenced average fresh weight, the propensity to form roots, as well as the embryogenic response.
The highest mean fresh weight (337.7 ± 26.18 mg) and mean root number (23.7 ± 1.69) was produced on media enriched with sucrose
and supplemented with 53.7 μM NAA and 11.0 μM BAP. An ethanol extract of rhizogenic/embryogenic callus or somatic embryos
was subjected to high-performance liquid chromatography analysis, which revealed the presence of DTS in both extracts. UV
spectral analysis and the use of standard quantitation procedures showed that the quantity of DTS in the somatic embryo extract,
at 0.16% (w/v), was approximately 30-fold higher than in rhizogenic/embryogenic callus (0.0055% w/v) of similar fresh weight. These results indicate that it is possible to biosynthesize approximately 6 mg of natural DTS from
3,808 mg of fresh somatic embryos within 10 wk from less than three leaf explants. 相似文献

We have developed a system to produce transgenic plants in tea (Camelia sinensis [L.] O. Kuntze) viaAgrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of embryogenic calli. Cotyledon-derived embryogenic callus cultures were cocultivated with anA. tumefaciens strain (AGL 1) harboring a binary vector carrying the hygromycin phosphotransferase (hpt II), glucuronidase (uid A), and green fluorescent protein (GFP) genes in the tDNA region. Following cocultivation, embryogenic calli were cultured in medium containing 500 mg/L carbenicillin
for 1 wk and cultured on an antibiotic selection medium containing 75 mg/L hygromycin for 8–10 wk. Hygromycin-resistant somatic
embryos were selected. The highest production efficiency of hygromycin-resistant calli occurred with cocultivation for 6–7
d in the presence of 400 μM acetosyringone (AS). Hygromycin-resistant somatic embryos developed into complete plantlets in
regeneration medium containing half-strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) salts with 1 mg/L benzyl amino purine (BAP) and 9 mg/L
giberellic acid (GA3). Transformants were subjected to GFP expression analysis, β-glucuronidase (GUS) histochemical assay, PCR analysis, and Southern
hybridization to confirm gene integration. 相似文献

The influence of Putrescine (Put) on the growth and elicitation of anthocyanin in callus cultures of Daucus carota var. Nantes scarlet was investigated through the use of α-DL-difluoromethylarginine (DFMA), the polyamine (PA) biosynthetic
inhibitor. It was observed that the addition of Put (0.05 mM) resulted in enhancement of growth and anthocyanin content. The
anthocyanin content was found to be enhanced by 1.68 fold on the 21st day as compared to the untreated controls. The PA inhibitor was found to result in lowering of the growth and the anthocyanin
accumulation, which could be partially restored by the addition of Put in combination with this inhibitor. The levels of Ca2+ ATPase were also found to be elevated in treatment with Put suggesting the involvement of calcium in the elicitation of anthocyanin.
The endogenous titres of PAs and the ethylene production under these treatments were also studied. The treatment with DFMA
resulted in lower levels of endogenous PAs and higher levels of ethylene. Lowering of ethylene by putrescine treatment shows
that PA treatment also inhibited ethylene formation, which would also imply that endogenous ethylene does not influence anthocyanin
production in carrot callus cultures. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to characterize the histodifferentiation of somatic embryogenesis obtained from leaf explants of C. arabica. Therefore, we histologically analyzed the respective stages of the process: leaf segments at 0, 4, 7, 15 and 30 days of cultivation, Type 1 primary calli (primary calli with embryogenic competence) and 2 (primary calli with no embryogenic competence), embryogenic calli, globular, torpedo and cotyledonary embryos, and mature zygotic embryos. Callus formation occurred after seven days of culture, with successive divisions of procambium cell. In this cultivation phase, it was found that Type 1 primary calli are basically formed by parenchymal cells with reduced intercellular spacing, whereas Type 2 primary calli are predominantly composed of parenchymal cells with ample intercellular spaces and embryogenic calli composed entirely of meristematic cells. After 330 days, it was evident from the differentiation of somatic embryogenesis that there was formation of globular somatic embryos, consisting of a characteristic protoderm surrounding the fundamental meristem. With the maturation of these propagules after 360 days, torpedo-stage somatic embryos arose, in which tissue polarization and early differentiation of procambial strands were verified. After 390 days, cotyledonary somatic embryos were obtained, where the onset of vessel elements differentiation was verified, a characteristic also observed in mature zygotic embryos. We concluded that somatic embryogenesis obtained from C. arabica leaves initiates from procambium cell divisions that, in the course of cultivation, produce mature somatic embryos suitable for regenerating whole plants. 相似文献

The objective of the present work was to induce somatic embryogenesis from zygotic embryos of Passiflora cincinnata Masters. Zygotic embryos formed calli on media with different concentrations of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and
4.5 μM benzyladenine (BA) after 30 days of in vitro culture. A concentration of 18.1 μM 2,4-D resulted in the largest number
of somatic embryos. Embryogenic calli were yellowish and friable, forming whitish proembryogenic masses. Morphologically,
embryogenic cells were small and had large nuclei and dense cytoplasm, whereas non-embryogenic cells were elongated, with
small nuclei and less dense cytoplasm. Calli cultured under white light on basal Murashige and Skoog’s medium with activated
charcoal produced embryos in all developmental stages. There were differences among the treatments, with some leading to the
production of calli with embryos and some only to callus formation. Some abnormalities were associated with somatic embryos,
including fused axes, fused cotyledons and polycotyledonary embryos. Production of secondary somatic embryos occurred in the
first cycle of primary embryo development. Secondary embryos differentiated from the surface of the protodermal layer of primary
embryos with intense cell proliferation, successive mitotic divisions in the initial phase of embryoid development, and a
vascular system formed with no connection to the parental tissue. This secondary embryogenic system of P. cincinnata is characterized by intense proliferation and maintenance of embryogenic competence after successive subcultures. This reproducible
protocol opens new prospects for massive propagation and is an alternative to the current organogenesis-based transformation
protocol. 相似文献

The somatic embryogenesis of conifers is a process susceptible to exogenous phytohormonal treatments. We report the effects
of the synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and the auxin inhibitor p-chlorophenoxyisobutyric acid (PCIB) on the endogenous level of the auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and on the anatomical
composition of early somatic embryos of Abies alba (European silver fir). The embryogenic suspensor mass (ESM) of Abies alba proliferated on a medium supplemented by 2,4-D as well as on an auxin-free medium. The endogenous level of IAA was significantly
higher in the ESM cultivated on a medium supplemented by 2,4-D. The decrease in the endogenous level of IAA in the first week
of maturation is one of the most important stimuli responsible for the subsequent development of embryos. However, suppression
of IAA synthesis by an auxin inhibitor did not stimulate the development of embryos. The maturation of somatic embryos from
the globular to the cotyledonary stage occurs when the concentration of endogenous auxin in the ESM (including the embryos)
increases. Early somatic embryos proliferating on a medium supplemented by auxin had an increased probability of maturing
successfully. Exogenous auxin treatment during maturation did not compensate for the auxin deficiency during proliferation. 相似文献

A somatic embryogenesis protocol for plant regeneration of northern red oak (Quercus rubra) was established from immature cotyledon explants. Embryogenic callus cultures were induced on Murashige and Skoog medium
(MS) containing 3% sucrose, 0.24% Phytagel™, and various concentrations of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d) after 4 weeks of culture in darkness. A higher response (66%) of embryogenic callus was induced on 0.45 μM 2,4-d. Higher numbers of globular- (31), heart- (17), torpedo- (12), and cotyledon-stage (8) embryos per explant were obtained
by culturing embryogenic callus on MS with 3% sucrose, 0.24% Phytagel™, and devoid of growth regulators after 8 weeks culture
in darkness. Continuous sub-culturing of embryogenic callus on medium containing 2,4-d yielded only compact callus. Desiccation of embryos for 3 days in darkness at 25 ± 2°C followed by cold storage at 4°C in
darkness for 8 weeks favored embryo germination and development of plantlets. Cotyledon-stage embryos subjected to desiccation
and chilling treatment cultured on MS with 3% sucrose, 0.24 Phytagel™, 0.44 μM 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), and 0.29 μM gibberellic
acid germinated at a higher frequency (61%) than with 0.44 μM BA alone and control cultures. Germinated plantlets developed
a shoot and root, were acclimatized successfully, and maintained in a growth room for plantlet development. 相似文献

An efficient protocol was established for regeneration of Desmodium motorium via somatic embryogenesis. Embryogenic calli were induced from cotyledon segments (6 mm, 16 days old) lacking embryo axis,
excised from seedlings grown in vitro on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) (2.9 μM)
in combination with 6-benzyladenine (BA) (4.44 and 8.88 μM). Differentiation of embryogenic calli into globular and heart-shaped
somatic embryos was achieved on transfer to hormone-free MS medium. When incubated for 4 days on MS medium supplemented with
BA (8.88 μM), 95% of the globular and heart-shaped somatic embryos matured into torpedo and cotyledonary stages with minimum
(10%) abnormalities. Modified MS basal medium without hormones and containing half-strength macronutrients and 0.88 M sucrose
was suitable for germination of mature somatic embryos. Regenerated plantlets were successfully transferred to earthen pots
with survival rate of 50%. Secondary embryogenesis was observed when pre-existing somatic embryos at globular and heart-shaped
stages were cultured on MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of BA, adenine sulphate (AdS) and abscisic acid
(ABA) individually. 相似文献

Key factors influencing the efficiency of transformation of embryogenic cultures, induced from immature zygotic embryos, of
avocado cv. ‘Duke 7’ were evaluated. Initially, the sensitivity of somatic embryos to the antibiotics kanamycin, used for
selection, carbenicillin, cefotaxime and timentin, all used for elimination of Agrobacterium cells, were evaluated. Isolated globular somatic embryos were more sensitive to kanamycin than embryogenic masses, and 25 mg l−1 kanamycin completely restricted callus proliferation. Cefotaxime at 500 mg l−1 partially inhibited proliferation of embryogenic cultures, while both carbenicillin and timentin did not affect callus growth.
For genetic transformation, somatic embryos were infected with A. tumefaciens containing the pBINUbiGUSint plasmid. After 2 days, the embryos were transferred to selection medium supplemented with 50 mg l−1 kanamycin and 250 mg l−1 timentin for 2 months. Then, kanamycin level was increased to 100 mg l−1 for two additional months. The A. tumefaciens strain AGL1 yielded higher transformation rates, 6%, than EHA105 or LBA4404, 1.2%. The percentage of kanamycin resistant
calli obtained was significantly influenced by the embryogenic line used as source of explants. Genetic transformation was
confirmed by PCR and Southern blot analysis. A significant improvement in the germination rate was obtained when transgenic
embryos were cultured in liquid MS medium with 4.44 μM BA and 2.89 μM GA3 for 3 days in a roller drum and later transferred to the same medium gelled with 7 g l−1 agar. Plants from five independent transgenic lines were acclimated and grown in the greenhouse, being phenotipically similar
to control plants. 相似文献

Kelussia odoratissima Mozaff. (or Kelus) is a medicinal plant native to the Zagros Mountains in Iran. This plant is widely used as a food flavoring and for its health-promoting properties. It has been considered an endangered species by the United Nations Development Programme. In this study, a somatic embryogenesis (SE) method was developed for mass propagation of Kelus. The green globular embryogenic callus was induced on cotyledonary leaves using the Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 1 mg/l 2,4-dichlorophenoxyaceticacid (2,4-D) and 0.25 mg/l Kinetin. Different treatments were assayed for proliferation of the embryogenic callus. The calli remained embryogenic in an MS medium containing 2,4-D (1 mg/l). The light treatments and carbon source showed significant effects (P?≤?0.05) on the proliferation and development of somatic embryos. These treatments improved the conversion rate of the cotyledonary-stage embryos by 100%. The average numbers of embryos in the globular, heart, torpedo, and cotyledonary stages decreased by the addition of 3 g/l case in hydrolisate. The genetic stability among tissue culture-derived plants and the mother plant were assessed using the amplification fragment length polymorphism. No polymorphic band was observed among all the plants, exhibiting the genetic stability during in vitro multiplication. This research provides a promising approach for true-to-type plant multiplication of K. odoratissima through SE. 相似文献

A method for isolation and shoot regeneration from electrofused protoplasts of L. angustifolius and L. subcarnosus was developed. Viable protoplasts were isolated from leaves of in-vitro grown seedlings at an average yield of 6 × 105 protoplasts g−1 fresh weight. Liquid and agarose solidified B5 media were used for protoplast culture. In the liquid-culture system, all
tested media, VKM, P1 and KM8p, were applicable for inducing cell division (84% of all tested petri dishes at four weeks)
and colony formation. Media containing additional carbohydrates were suitable to produce compact calli with green and brown
pigmentations in different combinations. Analysis of callus with molecular markers allowed to identify six somatic hybrids.
However, none of the parental-protoplast derived cell colonies could develop shoots. This is the first report on protoplast
fusion of L. angustifolius and L. subcarnosus with subsequent shoot regeneration. 相似文献

Biological characterization of young and aged embryogenic cultures of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pinus pinaster</Emphasis> (Ait.) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Pinus pinaster (Ait.) somatic embryogenesis (SE) has been developed during the last decade, and its application in tree improvement programs
is underway. Nevertheless, a few more or less important problems still exist, which have an impact on the efficiency of specific
SE stages. One phenomenon, which had been observed in embryogenic tissue (embryonal mass, EM) initiated from immature seed,
has been the loss of the ability to produce mature somatic embryos after the tissue had been cultured for several months.
In an attempt to get insight into the differences between young cultures of EM (3-mo-old since the first subculture) of P. pinaster that produced mature somatic embryos and the same lines of significantly increased age (18-mo-old, aged EM) that stopped
producing mature somatic embryos, we analyzed in both types of materials the levels of endogenous hormones, polyamines, the
global DNA methylation, and associated methylation patterns. In addition, we included in the analysis secondary EM induced
from mature somatic embryos. The analysis showed that the two tested genotypes displayed inconsistent hormonal and polyamine
profiles in EM cultures of a similar phenotype and that it might be difficult to attribute one specific profile to a specific
culture phenotype among genotypes. Experiments were also undertaken to determine if the global DNA methylation and/or the
resulting methylation pattern could be manipulated by treatment of the cultures with a hypomethylating drug 5-azacytidine
(5-azaC). An aged EM was exposed to different concentrations and durations of 5-azaC, and its response in culture was established
by fresh mass increases and somatic embryo maturation potential. All of the analyses are new in maritime pine, and thus, they
provide the first data on the biochemistry of EM in this species related to embryogenic potential. 相似文献

Jasmonic acid (JA), its methyl ester (MeJA) and the biosynthetic precursor 12-oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA) were detected quantitatively
during somatic embryogenesis of Medicago sativa L. Using GC-MS analysis, these compounds were found in initial explants, in calli and in somatic embryos in the nanogram
range per gram of fresh weight. In distinct stages of somatic embryogenesis, JA and 12-OPDA accumulated preferentially in
cotyledonary embryos. Initial explants exhibited about five-fold higher JA content than OPDA content, whereas in other stages
OPDA accumulated predominantly. These data suggest that also in embryogenic tissues OPDA and JA may have individual signalling
properties. 相似文献

Background
Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is an asexual propagation pathway requiring a somatic-to-embryonic transition of differentiated somatic cells toward embryogenic cells capable of producing embryos in a process resembling zygotic embryogenesis. In chicory, genetic variability with respect to the formation of somatic embryos was detected between plants from a population of Cichorium intybus L. landrace Koospol. Though all plants from this population were self incompatible, we managed by repeated selfing to obtain a few seeds from one highly embryogenic (E) plant, K59. Among the plants grown from these seeds, one plant, C15, was found to be non-embryogenic (NE) under our SE-inducing conditions. Being closely related, we decided to exploit the difference in SE capacity between K59 and its descendant C15 to study gene expression during the early stages of SE in chicory. 相似文献20.
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
