Somatic embryos of Ipomoea batatas Lam. (sweet potato cv. White Star) were produced in an airlift bioreactor. This work describes the optimization of the embryogenic system on semisolid medium, followed by transfer of the system to liquid cultures and ultimately to the airlift bioreactor. The physiological age of embryogenic callus influenced the number and overall morphology of the embryo population in both semisolid and liquid medium. Maximum mature embryo production (35 embryos 10 mg-1 inoculum) was obtained from six-week-old callus at 30°C. Somatic embryogenesis occurred in liquid cultures containing 20 mM NH4NO3 and 30 mM KCl. Globular embryos formed and continued development in suspension producing viable, mature cotyledonary embryos by day 14. Embryo formation and development was limited in the bioreactor. Although shear stress was responsible for some embryogenic damage, the effect of purging the system with fresh air needed to be investigated. To isolate aeration effects from shear stress effects, atmospheric determinations were performed on shaker flask cultures. Initially the gas composition within the Erlenmeyer headspace was that of room air. Ethylene increased to a maximum of 6.4 ppm (day 16), maximum CO2, 21.2%, was also evident on day 16, and oxygen was depleted to a minimum of 8.1% by day 14. Purging the cultures with fresh air reduced the number of embryos formed; however, they were significantly longer than those formed in closed flasks. The gas response model of Ipomoea batatas will enable atmosphere replenishment in the bioreactor mimicking that of the shaker flask environment. Once the damaging effects of shear stress have been overcome, the regulation of bioreactor gasses should allow somatic embryo formation in the bioreactor comparable to that in shaker flasks. 相似文献

17 beta-Hydroxy-11 beta(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-17 alpha-(1-propynyl)estra-4, 9-dien-3-one (RU486) inhibited the in vitro development of different stages of mouse preimplantation embryos under study. Two-celled embryos, morulae, and early blastocysts were obtained from B6D2F1 mice. The embryos were grown in Ham F-10 nutrient mixture (with glutamine) supplemented with sodium bicarbonate (2.1 g/L), calcium lactate (282 mg/L), and bovine serum albumin (fraction V, 3 mg/mL) at 37 degrees C in a humidified incubator supplied with 5% CO2 in air. RU486 was added to the culture medium at concentrations of 1, 5, 10, and 20 micrograms/mL. Culture medium with 0.05% ethanol served as the control. In vitro growth of embryos was assessed by the following criteria: (i) two-celled stage embryo development to blastocyst stage after 72 h, (ii) morula stage grown to blastocyst stage after 24 h, and (iii) early blastocyst stage development to hatching blastocyst after 12 h, in culture. RU486 inhibited the in vitro development of two-celled embryos, morulae, and early blastocysts at concentrations of 5, 10, and 20 micrograms/mL culture medium (p less than 0.001). The inhibitory effect of RU486 at these concentrations on the development of all the stages of embryos under study was irreversible. However, RU486 did not affect embryo development at 1 microgram/mL culture medium. The study indicates the direct adverse effect of RU486 at 5 micrograms/mL and higher concentrations in culture medium on the development of mouse preimplantation embryos in vitro, and it encourages its further investigation as a postcoital contraceptive in animal models and humans. 相似文献

Horse chestnut (Aesculus hyppocastanum L., Hyppocastanacea) is a relict species with a slow and complex reproductive cycle considered to have horticultural and medical importance. The cycle maybe circumvented via in vitro androgenesis. Androgenesis of horse chestnut was induced in microspores and anther culture on MS media. Some of the horse chestnut androgenic embryos were albinos. Addition of abscisic acid in media (in concentrations of 0.01, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, and 20 mg l?1) with horse chestnut androgenic embryos has circumvented the reproduction cycle barriers. The best results were achieved on medium with the lowest abscisic acid concentration (0.01 mg l?1) in microspore culture. The microspore culture proved to be a better model system for embryo production and albino embryo reduction than anther culture. Flow cytometry analysis after maturation treatments induced by ABA showed that 88 % of green embryos originating from microspore culture were haploid. However, 50 % of green embryos from anther culture were haploid. The remaining analyzed androgenic embryos, from both types of cultures were diploid. 相似文献

In conventional culture conditions without auxin, somatic embryos arising from suspension cultures of grapevine rootstock 41B (Vitis vinifera cv. Chasselas x Vitis berlandieri) are arrested at the heart stage of development. Starting from indications that inhibitors excreted in the culture medium could be responsible for this arrest, new culture conditions based on daily subculturing embryos in fresh medium have been successfully used to obtain full embryo development. From this technique, a microassay was devised for screening small amounts of extracellular molecules as potential inhibitors of embryonic development. Our results show that extracellular macromolecules of molecular weight higher than 10 kDa are likely involved in the inhibition of caulinary meristem initiation. However, other factors obviously cooperate to inhibit embryo development in conventional culture conditionsAbbreviations CH76

This study was designed to observe the effect of cytochalasin B (CCB) concentrations on ploidy and early development of parthenogenetic embryos in a caprine species. Caprine oocytes were matured in the presence of different concentrations of CCB (5, 10, 15, and 20 μg/ml) and activated by 7% ethanol followed by incubation with 2 mM DMAP. For embryos fertilized in vitro, oocytes were matured in maturation medium without CCB. The cleavage rate and further embryo development were significantly higher (P < 0.05) when oocytes were treated in this way. The percentage of embryos showed higher diploid values in 15 μg/ml CCB (83.66 ± 1.13), followed by 20 (72.22 ± 1.22), 10 (68.57 ± 1.17), and 5 μg/ml (62.00 ± 2.48). These results indicate that CCB with a concentration of 15 μg/ml in maturation medium can be used for the production of diploid parthenogenetic embryos in the caprine species. 相似文献

Previous studies showed that the addition of a growth factor to the culture medium could modulate embryo development. The possible secretion of different factors to the culture medium by the embryo itself, however, has been poorly evaluated. The present study was designed to investigate: (1) the influence of single or group culture on the development of 2-cell mouse embryos (strain CD-1) to the blastocyst stage; (2) the release of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and stem cell factor (SCF) into the culture medium by the embryo; and (3) the levels of GM-CSF and SCF in the culture medium from both single and group embryos. Two-cell CD-1 mouse embryos were cultured for 96 h singly or in groups of five embryos per drop. GM-CSF and SCF were assayed by ELISA in the complete culture medium. It was found that embryos cultured in groups gave a higher percentage of total blastocyst formation and hatched blastocyst when compared with single embryo culture. The mouse embryos secreted GM-CSF and SCF to the culture medium. The concentration of these cytokines is significantly higher in the group cultures than the level found in single cultures. In conclusion, mouse embryos in culture secrete GM-CSF and SCF to the culture medium and the concentration of these cytokines increases during communal culture. These factors may be operating in both autocrine and paracrine pathways to modulate embryo development during in vitro culture. 相似文献

Vitamin A (all-trans retinol) is an important antioxidant whose role in embryo development in vitro and in vivo is well established. Oxidative stress is a major cause of defective embryo development. This study evaluated the effects of all-trans retinol supplementation to maturation and embryo culture media under different gaseous environments on the development of ovine oocytes and embryos in vitro. The percentages of cleavage, morula and blastocyst, total cell count and comet assay were taken as indicators of developmental competence of embryos. In experiments I and II, all-trans retinol at concentrations of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 μM were supplemented to the oocyte maturation medium and cultured in an environment of 5% or 20% O2 respectively. All-trans retinol supplementation (6 μM) to the maturation medium at 5% O2 levels significantly increased blastocyst yield and total cell number (P < 0.05). Maturation of oocytes in a 20% O2 environment bettered cleavage rates in the 6 μM supplemented group compared with the control group (P < 0.05). In experiments III and IV, all-trans retinol, at the aforesaid concentrations was supplemented to embryo culture media under a 5% or 20% O2 environment, respectively. All-trans retinol supplementation to the embryo culture medium at 5% O2 levels did not yield any significant result whereas the culture at 20% O2 levels gave significantly higher blastocyst yield in the 6 μM supplemented group compared with the control group (P < 0.01). 相似文献

The influence of bovine serum albumin (BSA) concentration on embryo hatching and the number of embryos cultured per drop of culture medium was examined in F1 (C57BL/6J × DBA/2J), C3HeB/FeJ strain and Line E mice. Embryos collected from F1 and Line E mice exhibited uniform hatching rates at BSA concentrations between 1 and 10 mg/ml, and embryo numbers ranging from 1 to 10 per 3 μ1 of culture medium. The hatching of C3HeB/FeJ blastocysts was greater at the higher concentrations of BSA and higher embryo densities. When the C3HeB/FeJ embryos were grown at high densities until morula and then cultured singly in fresh media they hatched at a low rate. However, when allowed to develop until the blastocyst stage before replotting, the embryos hatched at a high rate. C3HeB/FeJ embryos cultured singly until morula and then placed in groups of 10 hatched at a high rate. Single C3HeB/FeJ embryos, cultured in medium conditioned by the prior presence of embryos at high densities, hatched at a slightly higher frequency than those cultured in fresh medium. There was no tendency of embryos developing from the two-cell to the eight-cell stages to hatch when cultured in the presence of high densities of hatching blastocysts. 相似文献

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of capacitating agents added at in vitro fertilization (IVF) and antioxidants supplemented during in vitro culture (IVC) on the development of buffalo embryos. In experiment I, in vitro embryo development of buffalo embryos was compared when the IVF medium was supplemented with heparin, caffeine and calcium ionophore A23187 either alone or in combination. There was no significant difference (P > 0.05) in the cleavage rates of oocytes among the treatment groups but the development rate to the blastocyst stage and the cell numbers of blastocyst in the heparin-treated group were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that of other treatments. In experiment II, in vitro embryo development of buffalo embryos was compared when IVC medium was supplemented with either α-tocopherol (250 and 500 μM) or l-ascorbic acid (250 and 500 μM). The rate of development to the blastocyst stage of embryos cultured in medium supplemented with 250 μM α-tocopherol (33%, 41/123) and 250 μM l-ascorbic acid (31%, 38/123) was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that of those cultured in medium alone (19%, 20/108) but not significantly different (P < 0.05) from medium supplemented with either 500 μM α-tocopherol (24%, 30/123) or 500 μM l-ascorbic acid (25%, 33/133). These results suggest that buffalo spermatozoa treated with heparin were suitable for IVF and that α-tocopherol and l-ascorbic acid added during IVC increased the rate of buffalo embryo development. 相似文献

Liquid medium improves and facilitates somatic embryo development from Citrus deliciosa Ten. suspension cultures. Three different
culture conditions were compared to determine a means of overcoming poor somatic embryo development. Somatic embryos derived
from suspension cultures were plated on solid medium, maintained in suspension culture or temporarily immersed. About 60%
of somatic embryos plated on solid medium developed to the cotyledonary stage, but were hyperhydric. Continuous growth in
suspension culture at 100 rpm hindered cotyledon and protoderm formation, and somatic embryos were unable to develop beyond
the globular stage. Temporary immersion promoted somatic embryo development, i.e. 66% of the somatic embryos produced were
cotyledonary, and were morphologically similar to nucellar embryos. This latter culture system also improved regeneration
synchronization by hampering secondary embryogenesis at the onset of germination. Irrespective of the culture system used,
most cotyledonary somatic embryos studied had no caulinary meristem or starch and protein reserves, thus explaining the low
germination rates obtained.

The role of sucrose during maturation of black spruce (Picea mariana) and white spruce (Picea glauca) somatic embryos 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present study was conducted to understand the role of sucrose in the medium on the maturation of black spruce and white spruce somatic embryos. A maturation medium containing 6% sucrose, which hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose, gave significantly more embryos than a medium containing 3.16% of each glucose and fructose. Preventing the complete sucrose hydrolysis by a daily transfer of the tissues onto fresh medium significantly decreased the yield of somatic embryos compared to when sucrose was allowed to complete its hydrolysis. This reduction was not due to the manipulation of the tissues during the transfer, since a daily in situ transfer did not affect embryo production. To verify if the better embryo production observed on a medium containing 6% sucrose was due to the increasing osmotic pressure of the medium, this increasing osmotic pressure was simulated with a sequence of media containing different concentrations of glucose and fructose. Unexpectedly and for both species, this simulation did not improve somatic embryo production, which stayed similar to the one obtained on constant osmotic pressure. To understand these results, embryos produced on the different treatments were analyzed in terms of sucrose, glucose, fructose and starch levels and protein contents. The embryo carbohydrate content was independent from the carbohydrate used in the maturation medium. However, embryos matured on 6% sucrose allowed to hydrolyze during the maturation period contained significantly more soluble and insoluble proteins than embryos matured on any other treatment. Furthermore, embryos with a higher protein content also exhibited a higher epicotyl appearance frequency. The role of sucrose as a regulatory factor during the maturation of spruce somatic embryos is discussed. 相似文献

Vitamin A is a well-known antioxidant and is essential for embryonic development, growth and differentiation. Oxidative stress is involved in the etiology of defective embryo development. The present study evaluated whether the presence of all-trans retinol (0, 1, 2, 5 and 10 μM) in maturation medium or embryo culture medium would enhance the developmental competence of preimplantation buffalo embryos in vitro. In experiment I, cumulus oocytes complex were matured with varying concentrations of all-trans retinol. Treatment with 5 μM all-trans retinol improved the blastocyst formation (P < 0.001) when compared with control and significant increase (P < 0.01) in total cell number was observed in 5 μM group when compared with control. Supplementation of all-trans retinol in embryo culture medium for the entire culture period under 5% O2 and 20% O2 was tested in experiments II and III, respectively. Supplementation of 10 μM all-trans retinol under 5% O2, significantly reduced blastocyst formation and cell numbers. Presence of 5 μM all-trans retinol under 20% O2 enhanced the frequency of blastocyst formation and total cell number (P < 0.001) when compared with control. DNA damage of individual embryos cultured under 20% oxygen concentration was measured by the comet assay. Supplementation of 5 μM all-trans retinol significantly reduced the comet tail (P < 0.001) when compared with control. Supplementation of all-trans retinol in embryo culture medium for first 72 h of the 8-day culture period under 5% O2 was tested in experiment IV. Addition of 5 μM all-trans retinol resulted in significant increase in blastocyst rate and total cell number (P < 0.001) when compared with control. Our results demonstrate that addition of all-trans retinol to maturation or embryo culture medium may enhance the developmental competence of buffalo embryos in vitro by enhancing blastocyst formation rate and total cell number. 相似文献

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of bovine follicular fluid (BFF) on fertilizability and developmental capacity of bovine oocytes matured in vitro. Oocytes were collected from slaughterhouse ovaries, and matured in TCM199 supplemented with 5% superovulated cow serum (SCS), 2 mM pyruvate and 1 IU/mL PMSG. BFF was aspirated from small follicles (1 to 5 mm in diameter). In Experiment 1, BFF was added to the Brackett and Oliphant (BO) fertilization medium at concentrations of 0, 1, 5, 10 and 20%. After insemination with frozen-thawed and heparin-treated (10 micrograms/mL, 15 min) bull spermatozoa for 18 h, some of the oocytes were fixed and stained to evaluate the fertilization rate. The rest of the oocytes were co-cultured in serum-free embryo culture medium (ECM; TCM199 supplemented with 5% SCS, 2 mM pyruvate and 5 micrograms/mL insulin) with bovine oviductal epithelial cells (BOEC) at 38.5 degrees C under 5% CO2 in air, and the developmental capacity of embryos was examined at 2, 7 and 9 d. In Experiment 2, BFF was added to the serum-free ECM with BOEC at 0, 5, 10 and 20% concentrations, and embryos were cultured for 9 d. Fertilization rates and blastocyst rates in low (1 and 5%) BFF in fertilization medium were not significantly different from the control (without BFF). However, high concentrations of BFF (10 and 20%) in the fertilization medium suppressed both fertilization rates and development. Large vesicles with fast monolayer formation were observed at all concentrations of BFF added to ECM with BOEC. There were no significant differences in cleavage or development to blastocyst in different concentrations of BFF added to ECM. However, the rate of development to hatched blastocysts in 20% BFF was significantly lower than that of the control (P < 0.05). The results of the present study indicate that BFF addition to fertilization medium and ECM with BOEC does not improve fertilizability or developmental capacity and that high concentrations of BFF reduce the rate of both fertilization and development. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to examine the potential toxicity of sucrose (Experiment 1) and of various cryoprotectants (Experiment 2) to porcine preimplantation embryos. In Experiment 1, 65 embryos, ranging from compact morulae to hatched blastocysts, were allocated within donor female across 5 concentrations of sucrose (0, 0.25, 0.50, 1.0, 2.0 M) to determine the highest concentration that would not inhibit subsequent embryo development. After a 48-h post-treatment culture period, the embryos were stained and cell nuclei were counted. The concentration of sucrose affected embryo development (P < 0.001) and embryo quality (P < 0.001). Embryos placed into 2.0 M sucrose exhibited poorer development and quality than embryos at the lower 4 concentrations, which were not different from one another. In Experiment 2, 182 embryos of the same developmental stages as in Experiment 1 were collected from 16 donors. Embryos were allotted within donor female to 2 of the 5 concentrations (10, 20, 30, 40, or 50%) of each of 3 cryoprotectants (ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol). After a 30-sec exposure to a cryoprotectant, the embryos were cultured and stained as in Experiment 1. As the concentration of an individual cryoprotectant increased beyond 30%, embryo development decreased. Embryos exposed to glycerol or propylene glycol exhibited poorer development than did embryos placed into ethylene glycol, especially at concentrations of 40% or higher. 相似文献

High-frequency plant regeneration through cyclic secondary somatic embryogenesis in black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A high-frequency plantlet regeneration protocol was developed for black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) through cyclic secondary somatic embryogenesis. Secondary embryos formed from the radicular end of the primary somatic embryos which were originally derived from micropylar tissues of germinating seeds on growth regulator-free SH medium in the absence of light. The process of secondary embryogenesis continued in a cyclic manner from the root pole of newly formed embryos resulting in clumps of somatic embryos. Strength of the medium and sucrose concentration influenced the process of secondary embryogenesis and fresh weight of somatic embryo clumps. Full-strength SH medium supplemented with 1.5% sucrose produced significantly higher fresh weight and numbers of secondary somatic embryos while 3.0 and 4.5% sucrose in the medium favored further development of proliferated embryos into plantlets. Ontogeny of secondary embryos was established by histological analysis. Secondary embryogenic potential was influenced by the developmental stage of the explanted somatic embryo and stages up to “torpedo” were more suitable. A single-flask system was standardized for proliferation, maturation, germination and conversion of secondary somatic embryos in suspension cultures. The system of cyclic secondary somatic embryogenesis in black pepper described here represents a permanent source of embryogenic material that can be used for genetic manipulations of this crop species. 相似文献

Somatic embryo suspension cultures of Picea sitchensis (Sitka spruce) derived from two cell lines, SS03 and SS10, were grown in shake flasks, air-lift, bubble, stirred tank and
hanging stirrer bar bioreactors. Cell line SS03 yielded freely suspended and individual stage 1 embryos, while the embryos
of SS10 were present in large aggregates. Compared to shake flasks, proliferation in bioreactors resulted in increased biomass;
however, cell line morphology influenced the effect of different bioreactor configurations on growth and maturation of embryo
cultures. Somatic embryos grown in shake flasks and bioreactors were matured on gelled solid medium and in submerged culture
where gelled solid medium was covered with a layer of liquid medium. The number of stage 3 (mature) embryos produced from
SS03 in the bubble bioreactor was significantly higher than those from stirred tank and hanging stirrer bar bioreactors with
both solid medium and submerged culture. Submerged culture was unsuitable for SS10 embryo maturation.
