The role of irradiation dose and DNA content of somatic hybrid calli in producing asymmetric plants between an interspecific tomato hybrid and eggplant

Highly asymmetric somatic hybrid plants were obtained by PEG/DMSO fusion of gamma-irradiated mesophyll protoplasts of the kanamycin-resistant (KmR⁺) interspecific hybrid Lycopersicon esculentum x L. pennellii (EP) with mesophyll protoplasts of Solanum melongena (eggplant, E). Elimination of the EP chromosomes was obtained by irradiating the donor genome with different doses of gamma rays (100, 250, 500, 750 and 1000 Gy). The selection of somatic hybrid calli was based on kanamycin resistance; EP and E protoplasts did not divide due to the irradiation treatment and sensitivity to kanamycin, respectively. KmR⁺ calli were recovered following all irradiation doses of donor EP protoplasts. The hybrid nature of the recovered calli was confirmed by PCR amplification of the NptII gene, RAPD patterns and Southern hybridizations using potato ribosomal DNA and pTHG2 probes. Ploidy levels of calli confirmed as hybrid were further analyzed by flow cytometry. Such analyses revealed that the vast majority of hybrid calli that did not regenerate shoots were 5–9n polyploids. The three asymmetric somatic hybrid plants obtained were regenerated only from callus with a ploidy level close to 4n, and such calli occurred only when the donor EP had been exposed to 100 Gy. The amount of DNA in somatic hybrid calli, from 100-Gy exposure, was found by dot blot hybridization with the species-specific probe, pTHG2, to be equivalent with 3.1–25.8% of the tomato genome. Thus, DNA contained in 3.8–13.2 average-size tomato chromosomes was present in these hybrid calli. The asymmetric somatic hybrid plants had the eggplant morphology and were regenerated from one hybrid callus that contained an amount of tomato DNA equivalent to 6.29 average-size tomato chromosomes.     

Asymmetric somatic hybridization between wheat (Triticum aestivum) and Avena sativa L.

Protoplasts from cell suspensions of young-embryo-derived calli, which were nonregenerable for long-term subculture and protoplasts from embryogenic calli with the regeneration capacity of 75% of the same wheat Jinan 177, were mixed as recipient. Protoplasts from embryogenic calli of Avena sativa (with the regeneration capacity of less than 10%) irradiated with UV at an intensity of 300 μW/cm² for 30 s, 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 5 min were used as the donor. Protoplasts of the recipient and the donor were fused by PEG method. Many calli and normal green plants were regenerated at high frequency, and were verified as somatic hybrids by chromosome counting, isozyme, 5S rDNA spacer sequence analysis and GISH (genomic in situ hybridization). Fusion combination between protoplasts either from the cell suspensions or from the calli and UV-treated Avena sativa protoplasts could not regenerate green plants.     

Somatic hybrid plants between the forage legumes Medicago sativa L. and Medicago arborea L.

Interspecific somatic hybrid plants were obtained by symmetrical electrofusion of mesophyll protoplasts of Medicago sativa with callus protoplasts of Medicago arborea. Somatic hybrid calli were picked manually from semi-solid culture medium after they were identified by their dual color in fluorescent light. Twelve putative hybrid calli were selected and one of them regenerated plants. The morphogenesis of the somatic hybrid calli was induced by the synthetic growth regulator 1,2 benzisoxazole-3-acetic acid. Somatic hybrid plants showed intensive genome rearrangements, as evidenced by isozyme and RFLP analysis. The morphology of somatic hybrid plants was in general intermediate between the parents. The production of hybrids by protoplast fusion between sexually incompatible Medicago species is related to the in vitro respon siveness of the parental protoplasts. The possibility of using somatic hybrid plants in alfalfa breeding is discussed.     

Cauliflower inflorescence protoplast culture and plant regeneration

A yield of 2–4×10⁶ protoplasts/g F.W. could be obtained when fresh cauliflower inflorescence segments were digested with 2% cellulase Onozuka R-10, 1% cellulase RS and 0.4% Macerozyme R-10 in CPW18S for 7 to 10 h. Purified protoplasts were cultured in K8p liquid and agarose medium. Although protoplasts in liquid medium divided earlier than in agarose, protoplast-derived cells in liquid culture could not avoid browning. With agarose culture, sustained division and callus formation could be achieved. After 20 days, calli were transferred onto B5 agar medium with ZT 1.5 mg l^-1, BA 0.5 mg l^-1 and IAA 0.1 mg l^-1 for shoot formation. The frequency of bud formation varied from 56.7% for calli of 1mm in size to 5.6% for 5mm calli. The shoots formed were rooted in B5 medium containing 0.5 mg l^-1 IBA, and the regenerated plants were transplanted to pots and grew normally. It took about two months from protoplasts to the regenerated plants.Abbreviations Ade adenine - BA 6-benzyl aminopurine - CH casein hydrolysate - CM coconut milk - 2,4-D 2,4,-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - GA₃ gibberellic acid - Gln glutamine - NAA -naphthylacetic acid - IAA indole-3-acetic acid - IBA indole-3-butyric acid - ZT zeatin     

Plant regeneration from protoplasts of Triticum aestivum L. cv. Nakasoushu

A fast-growing, small, granular, embryogenic callus was selected from primary calli induced from the Japanese wheat cultivar Nakasoushu and the Australian wheat cultivar Bodallin. Regenerable and fine suspension cultures were induced three to six months after liquid culture was initiated and were characterized by dense cytoplasm and active division. These suspension cultures routinely provided high yields of protoplasts with about 90% viability when incubated in a modified KMP (Kao and Michayluk, 1975) medium containing 1 mg l^-1 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid), and 1 mg l^-1 zeatin. Nakasoushu and Bodallin protoplasts divided at frequencies of 8.6% and 11.1%, respectively, in agarose-solidified media. When Nakasoushu protoplasts were cultured with effective nurse cells of sorghum and wheat, protoplast division increased to 16.9% and 12.6%, respectively. Plating efficiencies varied from 0.03% to 2.5%. After subculture, protocolonies yielded embryogenic calli and somatic embryos, from which green plants were eventually regenerated. Whole plants obtained from Nakasoushu protoplasts were fertile, demonstrating the first report of Japanese cultivars in wheat protoplast cultures. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Plant regeneration from leaf protoplasts of Brassica oleracea var. italica CV Green Comet broccoli

A procedure is described for regeneration of plants from leaf protoplasts of the hybrid broccoli cultivar, Green Comet (Brassica oleracea var italica). The totipotency of protoplasts isolated from plants regenerated from hypocotyl explants (GCR) was greater than that of protoplasts from plants grown directly from seed (GC). Using medium B developed by Pelletier et al (1983), division efficiencies greater than 70% were obtained in leaf protoplasts isolated from GCR. Approximately 1% of these protoplasts formed calli on solidified medium; 77% of the calli regenerated shoots. In contrast, protoplasts from seed-grown material showed a lower division efficiency (15–22%) and fewer protoplast-derived calli produced shoots. Some of the 178 protoplast-derived plants grown to maturity had variant phenotypes.Abbreviations NAA napthalene acetic acid - BA 6-benzylaminopurine - MES 1-morpholino-ethane sulfonate This work has been submitted by D.

Plant regeneration from protoplast culture of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.)

This is the first report on successful plant regeneration from protoplasts of sweet potato. Two cultivars (Guyana and Duclos XI) of sweet potato plants propagated under in vitro conditions were used as the source of protoplasts. Green compact calli with meristematic areas were induced in the medium supplemented with 2mg1^–1 zeatin, and plant regeneration occurred when these calli were transferred onto the medium with zeatin level reduced to 0.25mg1^–1. Plant regeneration was found to be genotype-dependent, since it was only obtained for cultivar Duclos XI.Abbreviations MS Murashige and Skoog basal medium - IAA Indol-3-acetic acid - NAA naphthaleneacetic acid - 2,4-D dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - Mes 2-(N-morpholino)-ethanesulfonic acid - Cpw cell and protoplast washing solution     

Plant regeneration from cell suspension-derived protoplasts of Saintpaulia ionantha Wendl

Summary Friable calli were induced on leaf segments of Saintpaulia ionantha Wendl. on B5 medium containing 1 mg l^–1 2,4-D and 2 g l^–1 casein hydrolysate. Cell suspension cultures were readily established from these friable calli and protoplasts could be isolated from the cells with yields of 1–3×10⁷/g f. wt.. By culturing in 0.1 % gellan gum-solidified B5 medium supplemented with 1 mg l^–1 2,4-D and 0.1 M each of sucrose and mannitol at a density of 1×10⁵/ml, the protoplasts divided within 6 days and formed macro-colonies after 2 months of culture. Shoot regeneration from protoplast-derived calli was obtained by sequential treatment of the calli with plant growth regulators: initially with 1 mg l^–1 each of NAA and BA for 2 months followed by 0.01 mg l^–1 NAA and 5 mg l^–1 BA for 4 months. Regenerated plants were established after rooting of the shoots on half-strength MS medium, and successfully transferred to the greenhouse. The regenerated plants grew into flowering stage and showed the same phenotype as the parent plant.Abbreviations BA benzyladenine - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - FDA fluorescein diacetate - f. wt fresh weight - MES 2-(N-morpholino)-ethanesulfonic acid - MS Murashige and Skoog (1962) - NAA -naphthaleneacetic acid - PE plating efficiency     

Isolation and culture of protoplasts of pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L.)

Summary High yields of protoplasts were obtained from leaves of aseptically grown plants and calli originated from different explants, in several cultivars of Cajanus cajan L. The protoplasts divided to form cell clusters in modified KM 8p medium and developed to protocolonies after dilution with liquid Caboche's medium within three to four weeks of culture. The protocolonies proliferated to form green calli on solid Caboche's medium. No shoots or plants were obtained.Abbreviations BAP 6-benzylaminopurine - NAA -napthaleneacetic acid - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - Kin kinetin - Zea zeatin - Adn S adenine sulphate - GA ₃ gibberellic acid     

Transformed calli obtained by direct gene transfer into sunflower protoplasts

Helianthus annuus protoplasts were transformed with the plasmid pCaMVNEO (Frommet al. 1986) conferring kanamycin resistance to plant. Transformed calli were selected with a frequency of 4 calli for 10⁶ treated protoplasts. DNA was extracted from kanamycin resistant calli.

Plant regeneration from callus and protoplast cultures of Helianthus giganteus L.

Summary Methods of plant regeneration from callus and protoplasts of Helianthus giganteus L. are described. Embryogenic callus was obtained from leaf explants and plants were regenerated from these calli on MS media with different combinations of benzyladenine and naphtaleneacetic acid. Leaf protoplasts isolated from in vitro grown plants formed somatic embryos when cultured in agarose solidified droplets of V-KM medium containing benzyladenine and naphtaleneacetic acid. Embryos developed into plantlets on media with reduced auxin contents. Regenerated plants were successfully planted in soil.Abbreviations BA benzyladenine - IAA indoleacetic acid - MS Murashige and Skoog medium - NAA naphtaleneacetic acid - V-KM protoplast culture medium of Binding and Nehls     

Regeneration and characterization of somatic hybrids between Brassica napus and Diplotaxis harra

Stem cortex protoplasts of Brassica napus, inactivated with iodoacetate, were fused with cell suspension - derived protoplasts of Diplotaxis harra by polyethylene glycol (PEG) treatment. PEG at 15–18% (w/v) induced 5–9% heterofusions. The hybrid callus selection was based on morphology: D. harra calli were yellow and very fine, while B. napus protoplasts typically produced green, well defined calli. A number of green, large calli were selected after fusion experiments and flowering plants were regenerated from two of these callus lines. The morphological traits as well as cytological and biochemical analysis of four isoenzymes confirmed the hybrid nature of the regenerants.     

Plant regeneration from protoplasts of cytoplasmic male sterile lines of rice (Oryza sativa L.)

This study compared plant regeneration from protoplasts isolated from suspension cultures of threeJaponica rice (Oryza sativa L.) lines with different male sterile cytoplasms. More than 180 green plants were regenerated from protoplasts from 5–8 month old suspensions of IR58024A, a line with the WA type of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS). About 40% of the calli recovered from protoplasts produced green plants. ShuangbaiA (BT type of CMS) and Tai2A (Dian I type of CMS), both from Zhejiang province of China, responded less well in culture. ShuangbaiA produced green plants from 6.6% of calli, although initial protoplast yield per gram fresh weight was higher than for IR58024A. Tai2A showed lower protoplast yield, and only 1.1% of the calli produced green plants. Flow cytometric analyses of nuclear DNA content indicated that many of the regenerated plants were tetraploid. The percentage of tetraploids varied in the different lines. The male sterile characteristics of the original lines were maintained in the regenerated plants. Pollen abortion occured earliest in IR58024A and latest in Tai2A. IR58024A is a promising rice genotype for use as a recipient in direct gene transfer experiments.Abbreviations BAP 6-benzylaminopurine - CMS cytoplasmic male sterility - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - IRRI International Rice Research Institute - LS Linsmaier and Skoog's (1965) medium - MS Murashige and Skoog's (1962) medium - NAA -naphthaleneacetic acid - WA wild abortive     

Fusion of Agrobacterium and E. coli spheroplasts with Nicotiana tabacum protoplasts — Direct gene transfer from microorganism to higher plant

Spheroplasts of Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains and E. coli were fused with protoplasts of Nicotiana tabacum. Fusion products were cultured in the presence of antibiotics to eliminate remaining bacterial spheroplasts. On hormone free medium, tobacco protoplasts treated with wild type Agrobacterium-strains formed colonies with an average frequency of 10^–4. Opine synthesis was detected in the tissues. Some calli derived from protoplasts treated with A. tumefaciens C58C1pRi15834 formed typical hairy roots. Kanamycin resistant calli were obtained after fusion with A. tumefaciens containing pLGVTi23 neo (frequency=10^–3). Fusion of E. coli spheroplasts containing a virulent pTiB6S3::RP4 co-integrate with tobacco protoplasts yielded two hormone independent growing calli producing octopine out of 10⁵ microcalli.Abbreviations PEG Polyethylene glycol - PVA Polyvinyl alcohol     

Somatic embryogenesis from leaf protoplasts of Rauvolfia vomitoria shoot cultures

Rauvolfia vomitoria mesophyll protoplasts have been isolated from axenic shoot cultures and cultured (10⁵-10⁶ protoplasts per ml) in Murashige and Tucker liquid medium containing growth regulators. Within 6–8 weeks, a mixed population of calli and proembryos were obtained and transferred on solid media. Calli produced shoots; however, rooting did not occur. Somatic embryos achieved different patterns of development. In particular, whole plantlets have been obtained either directly through germination of primary embryos or via embryogenic calli.Abbreviations B5 Gamborg et al.

Somatic hybridization between selected Lycopersicon and Solanum species

Summary Mesophyll protoplasts of an interspecific Lycopersicon esculentum Mill, (tomato) x Lycopersicon pennellii hybrid plant (EP) were fused with callus-derived protoplasts of Solanum lycopersicoides Dun. using a modified PEG/DMSO procedure. The EP plant was previously transformed by Agrobacterium tumefaciens which carried the NPTII and nopaline synthase genes. Protoplasts were plated at 10⁵/ml in modified KM medium and 16 days post-fusion 25 ug/ml kanamycin was added to the culture medium. During shoot regeneration, 212 morphologically similar putative somatic hybrids were delineated visually from kanamycin resistant EP's. Forty-eight shoots, randomly selected among the 212, were further verified as somatic hybrids by their leaf phosphoglucoisomerase heterodimer isozyme pattern. However, the resulting plants were virtually pollen sterile. In a second fusion, mesophyll protoplasts of Solanum melongena (eggplant) were fused with EP callus-derived protoplasts. Using the same fusion and culture procedure, only two dark green calli were visually selected among the pale green parental EP and verified as somatic cell hybrids by several isozyme patterns. These two calli have produced only leaf primordia in one and half years on regeneration medium.Abbreviations ABA abscisic acid - BAP 6 benzylaminopurine - 2,4-D 2,4 dichlorophenoxy acetic acid - DMSO dimethyl sulfoxide - GA₃ gibberellic acid - GOT glutamate oxaloacetate - IAA indoleacetic acid - IBA indolebutyric acid - IDH isocitrate dehydrogenase - MDH malate dehydrogenase - MES morpholinoethane-sulfonic acid - PEG polyethylene glycol - 6-PGDH 6 phosphogluconate dehydrogenase - PGI phosphoglucoisomerase     

Haploid and diploid plant regeneration from protoplasts of anther callus in rice

Summary The regeneration of haploid and diploid plants was demonstrated from protoplasts that were isolated from cell suspensions of anther callus in rice. The cell suspension in the AA medium that contained 4 amino acids as the sole nitrogen source was friable, finely dispersed, and readily released a large number of protoplasts. These protoplasts, subsequently cultured in NO₃ medium that contained nitrate as the sole nitrogen source, formed compact calli. The compact calli produced green plants with a frequency of 24%. Out of 15 flowering plants, 4 were haploids, the others were diploids which showed a uniform morphology but varied in seed fertility from 95 to 0%.Abbreviations 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - IAA indole-3-acetic acid     

Isolation and culture of protoplasts from mesophyll tissue of the legume Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.

Protoplasts of Cyamopsis tetragonoloba were isolated from leaves of in vitro grown plants. The yield of the protoplasts, their viability and subsequent divisions were greatly influenced by the pH of the media used for isolation and culture of protoplasts. Sustained divisions of the cultured protoplasts were best supported by a modified Kao and Michayluk (1975) nutrient medium containing glucose (0.4 M), NAA (4 mgl^–1), 2,4-D (1 mgl^–1) and KIN (2 mgl^–1 ). The protoplast derived cells developed calli on transfer to Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium supplemented with 1 mgl^–1 each of 2,4-D, NAA and KIN.     

Somatic embryogenesis and fertile green plant regeneration from suspension cell-derived protoplasts of rye (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Secale cereale</Emphasis> L.)

A method for somatic embryogenesis and fertile green plant regeneration from suspension cell-derived protoplasts of rye (Secale cereale L. cv. Auvinen) was developed. Fast-growing and friable embryogenic calli with a high regeneration capacity were induced from immature rye inflorescences using modified MS medium. These friable embryogenic calli were used for suspension culture initiation in liquid AA medium. A high yield of protoplasts was obtained from suspension cell clumps after 3–5 days of subculture. Isolated protoplasts were cultured in KM8p medium. The frequency of protoplast cell divisions and colony formations in liquid culture medium were similar to those on agarose-solidified medium. Compact embryogenic calli were developed from protoplast-derived microcalli in growth medium mMS. Approximately 7% of the transferred embryogenic calli produced green shoots on N₆ regeneration medium. Of 33 green plants, 28 were fertile with normal flowering and seed set. The ratio of green and albino plantlets was 1:4. Rye protoplast-derived green plants showed normal diploid characters as determined by flow cytometer analysis and chromosome counting.Abbreviations 2,4-D 2,4-Dichorophenoxyacetic acid - FDA Fluorescein diacetate - FW Fresh weight - GA₃ Gibberellic acid - Kinetin 6-Furfurylaminopurine - IAA Indole-3-acetic acid - NAA -Naphthaleneacetic acid
