Plant suspension cultures are highly aggregated, preventing the direct application of flow cytometry for the study of population dynamics. The utility of single cells to accurately represent aggregated suspension cultures was tested through the analysis of total protein content. Specifically, protein content of two Taxus cuspidata suspension culture lines was studied using the Bradford assay for aggregated suspension cultures, and flow cytometry with fluorescein isothiocyanate staining for protoplasts and single cells. Taxus protein levels were measured at 75–160 mg per gram dry weight via the Bradford assay. Aggregated suspension cultures, protoplasts, and single cells predicted the same trend of protein content over the culture period (21 days). Normalized protein content of isolated single cells was statistically equivalent to aggregated suspensions for both cell lines. However, normalized protein content of isolated protoplasts showed significant differences from aggregated suspensions for one of the two cell lines. Elicitation with methyl jasmonate (MJ) is commonly utilized to increase paclitaxel accumulation in suspension cultures, and therefore the effect of MJ elicitation on protein content in aggregated suspensions, isolated single cells and protoplasts was assessed. Aggregated suspension cultures, protoplasts, and single cells did not show any change in total protein content following elicitation with MJ at 200 M on day 7. This study illustrates the usefulness of flow cytometry for obtaining culture population information and the value of using intact single cells for the study of plant metabolism.  相似文献

Development of bioreactor systems utilizing plant suspension cultures has been hindered by the lack of on-line sensors for monitoring important process variables such as biomass concentration and aggregate size. An optical technique, the focused beam reflectance method (FBRM developed by Lasentec Inc., Redmond, WA), was used to characterize several plant suspension cultures: rice (Oryza sativa), tobacco (Nicotiana benthamiana) and wild Chinese cucumber (Trichosanthes kirilowii). These cultures differ in a number of respects such as individual cell size and morphology, aggregate shape and size distribution, initial culture density, and color. For plant suspensions comprised of relatively spherical aggregates (rice and cucumber), the area under the cube-weighted FBRM chord length distribution was linearly correlated to biomass concentration (R 2>0.99) while the mean of the cube-weighted FBRM chord length distribution was nonlinearly related to aggregate size.  相似文献

Clonal cultures ofProrocentrum hoffmannianum Faust (clone 882a) were grown under optimal environmental conditions for maximal okadaic acid production. The environmental conditions of 25 °C and 86 µmol photon m-2 s-1 were used to cultivateP. hoffmannianum in a semi-continuous 36-L culture vessel with continuous cell suspension and pH control. Using these conditions, a 3-fold increase in harvestable biomass and okadaic acid content was observed when compared to batch culture techniques.Author for correspondence  相似文献

Callus of Orthosiphon stamineus could be induced successfully from petiole, leaf and stem tissues but not roots when cultured on MS medium containing different concentration of NAA (0–4.0 mg l–1) and 2,4-D (0–2.0 mg l–1). Highest fresh weight callus production was obtained from leaf explants and those with best friability were obtained on MS medium plus 1.0 mg l–1 2,4-D plus 1.0 mg l–1 NAA. Cell suspension cultures were established from these cultures. The appropriate cell inoculum size for the best cell growth was 0.75 g of cells in 20 ml culture medium. Cell suspension culture using MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg l–1 2,4-D promoted the best cell growth with maximum biomass of 8.609 g fresh weight and 0.309 g dry weight 24 days after inoculation. Cells that grew in MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg l–1 2,4-D reached the stationary growth phase in 15 days as compared to the cells that grew in MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg l–1 2,4-D + 1.0 mg l–1 NAA reached the stationary phase in 24 days. MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg l–1 2,4-D was considered as the maintenance medium for maintaining the optimum cell growth of O. stamineus in the cell suspension cultures with 2-week interval subculture.  相似文献

A suspension culture of Podophyllum hexandrum was established. As the cultures grew, reduction in cell viability, biomass and product yield were associated with browning of culture medium, clumping of cells and drop in medium pH. Supplementation of the medium with both polyvinylpyrrollidone (PVP) and pectinase eliminated these problems. PVP at 10 g l–1 was optimum for both growth of and product formation in P. hexandrum suspension cultures.  相似文献

Rheological properties of Chlorella pyrenoidosa culture grown heterotrophically in a 14 L fermentor were investigated. It was found that the fluid viscosity was rather low and remained almost unchanged during the cultivation, implying that no (or very few) viscous substances were excreted into the medium. Investigation of the condensed suspension of C. pyrenoidosa showed that for biomass concentration under 150 g.L−1, the suspension of C. pyrenoidosa exhibited Newtonian behavior, and the fluid viscosity was rather low (about 40 mPa·s) and increased very slowly with the increase in cell concentration. With further increase in biomass concentration however, the fluid rheological behavior changed to non-Newtonian, and the fluid viscosity increased rapidly with the increase in cell concentration. From the viewpoint of rheology, C. pyrenoidosa is an excellent organism for high-cell-density culture, and there will be no rheological problems at cell densities under 150 g.L−1.  相似文献

Single cells isolated from aggregated Taxus cuspidata cultures via enzymatic digestion were grown in suspension culture. High seeding density (4×105 cells/ml) and the addition of cell-free conditioned medium were essential for growth. Doubling the concentration of the nutrients [ascorbic acid (150 g/l), glutamine (6.25 mm), and citric acid (150 g/l)] had no effect on single cell growth or viability. A specific growth rate of 0.11 days−1 was achieved, which is similar to the observed growth rate of aggregated Taxus suspensions. The biocide, Plant Preservative Mixture, added at 0.2% (v/v) to all single cell cultures to prevent microbial contamination, had no significant effect on growth or viability. Following cell sorting, single cell cultures can be used to establish new cell lines for biotechnology applications or provide cells for further study.  相似文献

Summary Mitochondrial DNA ofPetunia hybrida was purified from cell suspension cultures. Up to 50% of the DNA could be isolated as supercoiled DNA molecules by CsCl-ethidium bromide density gradient centrifugation. The DNA purified from DNase-treated mitochondria bands at a single buoyant density of 1.760 gcm–3 in neutral density gradients and runs on agarose gels as a single band with an apparent molecular weight exceeding 30 megadaltons (Md). Summing of the restriction endonuclease fragment lengths indicates a mitochondrial genome size of at least 190 Md. Electron microscopic analysis reveals the presence of a heterogeneous population of circular DNA molecules, up to 60 Md in size. Small circular DNA molecules, ranging in size from 2–30 Md are present, but unlike in cultured cells of other plant species they do not form discrete size classes and furthermore, they constitute less than 5% of the total DNA content of the mitochondria. The restriction endonuclease patterns of mitochondrial DNA do not qualitatively alter upon prolonged culture periods (up to at least two years).  相似文献

Summary Image analysis tools were developed to measure biomass concentration, aggregate size and distribution, and pigmentation from anthocyanin-producing cell suspension cultures of ohelo (Vaccinium pahalae). The ex situ imaging system could image cell aggregates from 30 μm to 2 mm in diameter. The image analysis algorithm was based on extracted geometric features and morphological methods for biomass volume estimates, and hue, saturation, and intensity color characteristics for pigmentation estimates. Detailed information available from sampled cell culture images was validated by comparison to standard destructive manual measurements. Image analysis measurements revealed that pigment accumulation was negatively correlated with aggregate size. Although a substantial proportion of small aggregates remained colorless, the highly-pigmented small aggregates, 18 to 238 μm in breadth, contributed over 70% of the culture anthocyanin production (mg L−1), despite their minor contribution to the overall biomass. The relative frequency of pigmented aggregates was higher in large-size aggregate classes; however, the pigmented sectors were mostly confined to only the periphery of the aggregates. As a result, large aggregate classes had only a minor contribution to overall culture anthocyanin yield.  相似文献

The effect of culture filtrate (conditioned medium, CM) containing cell exudates obtained from green alga, Scenedesmus subspicatus, on cell suspension of dicotyledonous plant Silene vulgaris was examined. The addition of diluted CM to the modified MS medium, supplemented with dicamba and BAP, stimulates cell biomass production. The biomass was composed of association of single non-dividing cells, cells during mitosis stage and cellular aggregates. Silene cells began mitotic divisions earlier in the presence of CM in medium when compared to control treatments. Results of performed bioassay showed that some factor or factors released by green alga to the culture medium could be responsible for sustained proliferation of phylogenetically distant species cells. Although it is still unclear which culture constituent influenced most the mitotic response of Silene suspension, results point at versatile stimulatory character of green alga exudates in higher plant cell culture.  相似文献

Gene transfer methods were established for cell suspension cultures of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas), ohelo (Vaccinium pahalae) and carrot (Daucus carota, two lines) using micro-projectile bombardment. Several parameters were studied (particle size/type, helium pressure, stage height, DNA concentration, pre-culture period) to determine which significantly affected transformation efficiency. All the physical parameters influenced transient gene expression, with particle size and type having the greatest effect. Cell culture age also affected transformation efficiency in all cell lines. Nuclear DNA conformation (relaxation) as measured by flow cytometry showed no change associated with culture age or transformation efficiency. Agrobacterium-based methods were also tested and in most experiments produced no GUS-expressing loci. Microprojectile bombardment will now be used to study anthocyanin biosynthesis in cell cultures as an alternative source of natural food colourants.  相似文献

Plant regeneration from embryogenic suspension cultures of dune reed   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Embryogenic callus, derived from mature seeds of dune reed (Phragmites communisTrinius) was used to establish suspension culture. Green shoot-forming type and albino shoot-forming type embryogenic callus of dune reed were selected carefully by the difference of shape and color of callus growing under light and mechanically dispersed before suspending in liquid MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg l–12,4-D. They were subcultured every 5 days to remove mucilaginous material in the early culture stage. Both fine albino and green shoot-forming cell suspension lines of dune reed were composed of rapidly growing small cell aggregates that were densely cytoplasmic and potentially embryogenic. Globular somatic embryos were continuously produced in each liquid medium containing 1.0 mg l–1 2,4-D. The cell aggregates in fine albino cell suspension line (size below 300 m) were smaller than that of green shoot-forming cell suspension line (size between 300 and 800 m). Following transfer to a differentiation medium, both suspension cultures formed regenerating plants with normal roots and albinotic or green shoots, respectively.  相似文献

Plant cell culture provides an alternative means for producing secondary metabolites. In this study, experiments were carried out to study the impact of several parameters, independently and in combination, on the stimulation of menthol production in the cell suspension culture of Mentha piperita. Callus was obtained from leaf segments of in vitro grown plantlets on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 0.2 mg l−1of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid to initiate cell suspension culture. This culture was maintained in half-strength MS medium supplemented with 0.2 mg l−1of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid at 15 d interval and used for further studies. Precursor feeding alone, i.e., menthone, at 35 μM concentration showed slightly improved productivity. γ-Cyclodextrin alone at 60 μM concentration and in combination with menthone feeding at 35 μM increased menthol yield up to 92 and 110 mg l−1 in comparison to 77 mg l−1 of control culture. Synergistic potentiation effect of menthone feeding at 35 μM and γ-cyclodextrin at 60 μM treatment followed by in situ adsorption with RP-8 also showed potential stimulation of menthol production in M. piperita cell culture. Fungal elicitor treatment showed enhanced production level up to 140.8 mg l−1 in comparison to that of control. Further studies were carried out with the establishment of Agrobacterium tumefaciens (Ach5) gall-mediated calli, and consequently, cell suspension culture and results showed the significant enhancement of menthol yield up to 278 mg l−1.

In vitro cultured plants from Oldenlandia affinis were established from seeds and grown on a hormone-free medium. In vitro plants produced the cyclic peptide kalata B1 in concentrations of 0.67 mg g−1 dry weight after growth of 30 days. This was approximately 50% of the concentration analysed in green house plants (shoot tips), where different concentrations have been determined in leaves (1.82 mg g−1), shoot tips (1.36 mg g−1), stems (0.36 mg g−1), and in flowers (0.16 mg g−1). Callus and cell suspension cultures could be initiated from aseptic root, stem and leaf explants of O. affinis seedlings and plants. Different light intensities were shown to affect culture growth as well as chlorophyll synthesis. The friable callus was then used for the establishment of a cell suspension culture. Fresh and dry weight measurements showed that growth was optimal on MS medium supplemented with 0.4 mg l−1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d). Leaf suspensions cultured on this medium showed a 4-fold increase of biomass by the first week of incubation. No quantifiable amounts of kalata B1 were produced under these conditions. Morphological differentiation seems to be essential for cyclic peptide production. Therefore, several undifferentiated as well as organised cell lines of O. affinis have been developed. These cell lines will constitute a worthwhile starting point for the optimisation of kalata B1 synthesis in liquid media to the objective of producing cyclic peptides under controlled and defined conditions in bioreactors.  相似文献

Ultrastructure and morphogenesis of extremely halophilic neutrophilic (Halobacteriam distributum, Halococcus turkmenicus) and alkaliphilic (Natronobacterium pharaonis, Natronococcus occultus) archaeobacteria were studied. The H. distributum culture was rather polymorphous and produced cells of four types. Due to the irregular cell fission in different planes packages of various numbers of cells surrounded by a common capsule were formed. Resting forms (halocysts) with multilayer covers were present in the population. The N. pharaonis culture consisted of rod-like cells and cyst-like forms. Besides, under conditions of carbon limitation, multicellular aggregated forms were found in the culture. Encapsulated single cells and aggregated forms with a common capsule were observed in H. turkmenicus and N. occultus cultures.  相似文献

In this paper, we would like to show unexpected morphogenic potential of cell suspensions derived from seedling explants of Gentiana kurroo (Royle). Suspension cultures were established with the use of embryogenic callus derived from seedling explants (root, hypocotyl and cotyledons). Proembryogenic mass proliferated in liquid MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg l−1 2,4-D and 1.0 mg l−1 Kin. The highest growth coefficient was achieved for root derived cell suspensions. The microscopic analysis showed differences in aggregate structure depending on their size. To assess the embryogenic capability of the particular culture, 100 mg of cell aggregates was implanted on MS agar medium supplemented with Kin (0.0–2.0 mg l−1), GA3 (0.0–2.0 mg l−1) and AS (80.0 mg l−1). The highest number of somatic embryos was obtained for cotyledon-derived cell suspension on GA3-free medium, but the best morphological quality of embryos was observed in the presence of 0.5–1.0 mg l−1 Kin, 0.5 mg l−1 GA3 and 80.0 mg l−1 AS. The morphogenic competence of cultures also depended on the size of the aggregate fraction and was lower when size of aggregates decreased. Flow cytometry analysis reveled luck of uniformity of regenerants derived from hypocotyl suspension and 100% of uniformity for cotyledon suspension.  相似文献

Cell cultures of Commiphora wightii (Arnott.) Bhandari were grown in shake flasks and a bioreactor and an increase in guggulsterone accumulation up to 18 μg l−1 was recorded in cells grown in the production medium containing a combination of sucrose:glucose (4% total), precursors (phenylalanine, pyruvic acid, xylose, and sodium acetate), morphactin, and 2iP. A yield of 10 g l−1 biomass and ∼200 μg l−1 guggulsterone was recorded in a 3-l flask and in a 2-l stirred tank bioreactor compared with 6.6 g biomass and 67 μg l−1 guggulsterone in 250-ml flasks. Increased vessel size was correlated with increased biomass and guggulsterone accumulation. 2iP alone was not effective for biomass and guggulsterone accumulation in cell cultures of C. wightii.  相似文献

Cells of two different cell lines:ccvx (cotyledon derived) andccvz (hypocotyl derived) ofSolanum chrysotrichum were cultivated in 10-1 airlift bioreactors for the production of the human antimycotic compound SC-1. When using 3 g l-1 dry weight inoculum in a batch culture, higher levels of biomass were achieved with theccvx cell line (14.6 g l-1) than withccvz (7.7 g l-1), resulting in 23 and 12 mg g-1 of SC-1 after 17 days in culture forccvx andccvz, respectively. The maximum productivity of SC-1 in bioreactors was 0.025 g l-1 day-1 after 9 days in culture. When using a draw-fill mode, the productivity increased by 60% to a value of 0.041 g l-1 day, 4 days after 50% of the cell suspension was removed and replaced with fresh medium. This latter bioreactor system is a feasible alternative for the production of the antimycotic metabolite ofS. chrysotrichum on a large scale.Abbreviations DW Cell dry weight - FW Fresh weight - MS Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium - T d Doubling time  相似文献

Characterization of aggregate size in Taxus suspension cell culture   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Plant cells grow as aggregates in suspension culture, but little is known about the dynamics of aggregation, and no routine methodology exists to measure aggregate size. In this study, we evaluate several different methods to characterize aggregate size in Taxus suspension cultures, in which aggregate diameters range from 50 to 2,000 μm, including filtration and image analysis, and develop a novel method using a specially equipped Coulter counter system. We demonstrate the suitability of this technology to measure plant cell culture aggregates, and show that it can be reliably used to measure total biomass accumulation compared to standard methods such as dry weight. Furthermore, we demonstrate that all three methods can be used to measure an aggregate size distribution, but that the Coulter counter is more reliable and much faster, and also provides far better resolution. While absolute measurements of aggregate size differ based on the three evaluation techniques, we show that linear correlations are sufficient to account for these differences (R 2 > 0.99). We then demonstrate the utility of the novel Coulter counter methodology by monitoring the dynamics of a batch process and find that the mean aggregate size increases by 55% during the exponential growth phase, but decreases during stationary phase. The results indicate that the Coulter counter method can be routinely used for advanced process characterization, particularly to study the relationship between aggregate size and secondary metabolite production, as well as a source of reliable experimental data for modeling aggregation dynamics in plant cell culture.  相似文献

The influence of dried cell powder and culture filtrates of endophytic fungi on production of inophyllum in cell suspension cultures of leaf- and stem-derived callus of Calophyllum inophyllum was investigated. Two fungi, Nigrospora sphaerica and Phoma spp., endophytic to C. inophyllum, were isolated from leaf tissues, and were identified by both 18S rRNA gene amplification and sequencing. Elicitation of suspension cultures of both callus types of C. inophyllum with dried cell powder and culture filtrates of both fungi consistently elicited production of inophyllum A, B, C, and P. In comparison to stem-derived callus, suspension cultures of leaf-derived callus enhanced production of most inophyllum. Of the four inophyllum studied, the highest production of inophyllum A, C, and P was achieved in elicited suspension cultures of leaf-derived callus. Suspension cultures of stem-derived callus enhanced production only of inophyllum B. When suspension cultures of leaf-derived callus were elicited with 40 mg dried cell powder of Phoma spp., a level of 751-fold (6.84 mg/100 g elicited biomass) of inophyllum A was produced, compared to control. Whereas, a level of 414-fold (6.22 mg/100 g elicited biomass) of inophyllum B was produced when suspension cultures of stem-derived callus were elicited with 20 mg dried cell powder of N. sphaerica. When compared to control, a 10% culture filtrate of N. sphaerica in suspension cultures of leaf-derived callus elicited inophyllum C and P production by 928-fold (7.43 mg/100 g elicited biomass) and 750-fold (1.5 mg/100 g elicited biomass), respectively.  相似文献
