Generation of Colors and Flavors in Plant Cell and Tissue Cultures

Plant cell and tissue cultures can be used for the synthesis and production of secondary metabolites like colors, flavors, and sweeteners. Most often, plant cell cultures fail to produce the desired products. In such cases strategies to improve the production of secondary metabolites must be considered.

Plant cell culture technology has now reached the point where a variety of culture types can be critically assessed as potential sources of existing and novel flavors and pigments. This brief review gives examples where progress has been made in the development of plant tissue culture systems.

Effect of medium acidity on growth and rooting of different plant species growing in vitro

Micropropagated Choisya, Daphne, Delphinium, Hemerocallis, Hosta, Iris and Photinia were found to adjust the pH of Murashige and Skoog's plant tissue culture medium (initial pH 5.6 or 3.5) to different values depending on the species. When plant growth and rooting rates were determined after plants had been grown on media initially adjusted or buffered to values between 2.6 and 5.7 the different plant species were also found to have distinct pH requirements for optimal growth and/or rooting rates.Abbreviations MS Murashige & Skoog's (1962) medium - MS19 MS with additionally 10 g l^–1 sucrose - 80 mg l^–1 adenine sulphate and 130.9 mg l^–1 NaH₂PO₄ - BA 6-benzyladenine - NAA 1-naphthyl-acetic acid - IBA 3-indole-butyric acid - IAA 3-indole-acetic acid - 2iP N₆(2-isopentyl) adenine     

Plant regeneration from somatic tissue of Rhododendron laetum x aurigeranum

The influence of the source of plant material (greenhouse-grown plants or in vitro shoot cultures), the type of tissue explant (shoot-tip, single-node stem segment, whole leaf, leaf strip or half-leaf section) and growth regulator concentration on shoot regeneration from somatic tissue of Rhododendron laetum × aurigeranum was evaluated. No regeneration response was obtained on explants from greenhouse-grown plants. Adventitious shoots were obtained from callus produced at the basal end of shoot-tip and single-node stem segment explants derived from in vitro-grown shoots cultured on Anderson's medium supplemented with 22.8 M IAA and 73.8 M 2iP. The greatest percentage of adventitious shoot regeneration (77%) was induced on leaf sections cultured in the presence of 22.8 M IAA and 147.6 M 2iP. Plant regeneration was accomplished with minimal callus formation. This technique represents a further step toward gene manipulation of Rhododendron.Abbreviations IAA 1-H-Indole-3-acetic acid - 2iP N-(3-methyl-2-Butenyl)-1H-purin-6 amine     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">In vitro</Emphasis> regeneration of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Echinacea pallida</Emphasis> from leaf explants

Summary A method has been developed for the induction of adventitious shoots from leaf tissue of Echinacea pallida with subsequent whole-plant regeneration. Proliferating callus and shoot cultures were derived from leaf tissue explants placed on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine and naphthaleneacetic acid combinations. The optimum shoot regeneration frequency (63%) and number of shoots per explant (2.3 shoots per explant) was achieved using media supplemented with 26.6 μM 6-benzylaminopurine and 0.11 μM naphthaleneacetic acid. Rooting of regenerated shoot explants was successful on Murashige and Skoog medium, both with and without the addition of indole-3-butyric acid. All plantlets survived acclimatization, producing phenotypically normal plants in the greenhouse. This study demonstrates that leaf tissue of E. pallida is competent for adventitious shoot regeneration and establishes a useful method for the micropropagation of this important medicinal plant.

In vitro regeneration of long spur barrenwort (Epimedium grandiflorum Morr.) from rachis explants

Summary A system for micropropagation of Epimedium grandiflorum Morr. from rachis explants was developed. Explants were cultured onto Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal salts medium supplemented with (per L) 100 mg myo-inositol, 2 mg pyridoxine-HCl, 2 mg nicotinic acid, 0.40 mg thiamine-HCl, 30 g sucrose, and 2 g Phytagel. The medium also contained 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) at 0.1, 0.2, or 0.25 mg/L (0.5, 0.9, or 1.1 μM) combined with either N⁶-benzyladenine (BA) or 2-isopentenyl adenine (2ip) at 2.5, 5, or 10 mg/L (11.1, 22.2, or 44.4 μM BA or 12.3, 24.6, or 49.2 μM 2iP). Cultures were maintained at a 16-h photoperiod (40 μmol/m²/s) and 23±2° C. Callogenesis preceded shoot regeneration. Callus formation increased with higher 2,4-D concentrations. The highest percent regeneration, 83% of explants, was obtained on 10 mg BA per L (44.4 μM) combined with 0.25 mg 2,4-D per L (1.1 μM). The maximum number of shoots, 15 per explant, was obtained from explants cultured on a medium containing 0.1 mg 2,4-D per L (0.45 μM) combined with 2.5 mg BA per L (11.1 μM). Maximum shoot length, 0.4 cm, was obtained on 5 mg BA per L (22.2 μM) combined with 0.2 mg 2,4-D per L (0.9 μM). To produce whole plants, shoots were separated and rooted on hormone-free medium containing 1 g activated charcoal per L. Rachises provided an excellent source of explants for Epimedium micropropagation and proved suitable for callus production.
