Spontaneous somatic embryogenesis on in vitro root segment cultures of Rauvolfia micrantha Hook. F.—A rare medicinal plant

Summary Plant regeneration through direct somatic embryogenesis was achieved from root segments derived from in vitro shoots of Rauvolfia micrantha Hook. f. (Apocynaceae) grown for 6 wk in half-strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with 3% sucrose, 100 mgl⁻¹ myo-inositol, and 0.5 mgl⁻¹ α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). The effects of photoperiod and plant growth regulators (PGRs) in half-strength MS medium were studied for the rapid and maximum induction of somatic embryos. The characteristic globular or heart-shaped stages of somatic embryogenesis were not found and cotyledonary stage embryos occasionally appeared without the intervention of callus in total darkness and 16-h photoperiod. Root segments cultured in the medium containing 0.1 mgl⁻¹ NAA and 0.2 mgl⁻¹ 6-benzyladenine (BA) under 16-h photoperiod showed the maximum frequency (39%) of embryogenesis. The frequency of embryo formation was increased to 63% when they were cultured in medium with 0.1 mgl⁻¹ NAA and 0.2 mgl⁻¹ BA in the dark for 4wk, then grown under the 16-h photoperiod. Explants with developing embryos developed into plants after transfer to half-strength MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mgl⁻¹ BA and 0.05 mgl⁻¹ NAA. The well-developed plants were hardened and most plants (80%) survived and were phenotypically similar to the mother plants.     

杉木未成熟胚胚性愈伤组织诱导影响因素探析

该研究从基因型、6-BA浓度、外植体接种方式和合子胚发育阶段等方面,分析杉木未成熟胚胚性愈伤组织诱导的影响因素。结果表明:基因型、6-BA浓度、外植体接种方式和合子胚发育阶段均对胚性愈伤组织诱导频率有不同程度影响。6种基因型中,有3种基因型诱导出胚性愈伤组织,其中基因型S18胚性愈伤组织诱导频率最高,为11.7%。6-BA浓度在1.0~1.5 mg·L~(-1)范围内时,基因型S18的胚性组织诱导频率较高。以在去皮种子的一端切开一个小口的接种方式为最优,将合子胚剥出的方式易造成合子胚褐化死亡,将未剥皮的种子切开一个小口后直接接入培养基的方式不利于愈伤组织生成。适合胚性愈伤组织诱导的合子胚发育阶段为受精至胚器官分化阶段,合子胚进入成熟阶段后不利于胚性愈伤组织诱导,合子胚易生长成完整植株。     

Modulation of the morphogenic potential of the embryonic axis of Juglans regia by cultural conditions

Embryonic axes of Juglans regia werecultured in vitro on Murashige and Skoog mediumsupplemented with different auxin/cytokinin ratios.2,4D, NAA or IBA at 1, 2, 4, 8 mgl^-1, alone orcombined with Kn 0.3 mgl^-1 induced callus whichshowed browning. NAA and IBA allowed organ developmentwhich was inhibited by 2,4-D. Cell suspensions fromNAA-or IBA induced callus had embryogenic capacitywhen cultured with NAA or IBA, showing a heterogeneouscell population composed of giant, elongated, andmeristematic cells. Those cultured with IBA dividedfollowing embryogenic patterns and cell aggregateswhich were associated with the earliest steps ofembryoid formation. Cell suspension from 2,4-D inducedcallus, revealed homogeneous cell populations whichwere very vacuolated with no apparent differentiation.Axillary bud proliferation induced by BA at 0.1, 1 or5 mgl^-1 was affected by both the physical stateof the culture medium and the time period in contactwith the growth regulator. The culture of embryonicaxes for one week in MS liquid medium with BA5 mgl^-1 favoured proliferation as well as buddevelopment.     

Somatic embryogenesis from immature zygotic embryos of oil palm

Immature zygotic embryos at different developmental stages were used for callus induction and regeneration studies. Immature embryos excised from fruits 77, 91, 100, 114, 128, 140 and 193 days after pollination and mature embryos were cultured on modified Y3 medium containing 500 mgl^–1 cysteine, 0.5% (w/v) PVP-40, 500 M 2,4-d and 0.3% (w/v) charcoal. Compact embryogenic tissue began differentiating directly from embryo explants after 2 weeks of culture. The percentage of embryos forming compact embryogenic tissue ranged from 28.6% for 91-day-old embryos to 0% for 140-day-old and older embryos. Friable embryogenic tissue was observed in callus cultures derived from 100-day-old embryos. Although both compact and friable embryogenic tissues were successfully isolated, normal embryo and plantlet development was observed only from friable embryogenic tissue.Abbreviations ABA abscisic acid - 2,4-d 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - NAA naphthaleneacetic acid - PVP polyvinylpyrollidone     

Somatic embryogenesis from pea embryos and shoot apices

Conditions were defined for plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis in pea, using explants from immature zygotic embryos or from shoot apices. For the induction of somatic embryos, an auxin (picloram or 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) was required. Embryogenic callus originated from embryonic axis tissue of immature embryos and from the axillary-bud region and the plumula of shoot apices. A clear effect of embryo size on somatic embryogenesis was shown. There were differences in frequency of somatic embryogenesis among the five genotypes used in the study. Additions of BA to auxin-containing medium reduced embryo production. Histological examinations confirmed the embryogenic nature of the immature embryo cultures and revealed that somatic embryos originated from the meristematic areas near the callus surface.Abbreviations BA benzyladenine - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - NAA naphthaleneacetic acid - picloram 4-amino-3,5,6-trichloropicolinic acid     

Changes of 6-benzylaminopurine and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid concentrations in plant tissue culture media in the presence of activated charcoal

Somatic embryos and embryogenic callus were initiated from immature zygotic embryos of ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer). These somatic embryos were multiplied by adventitious (secondary and tertiary) embryogenesis and their growth and development were dependent on growth hormones in the medium. Auxins, 2,4-d, NAA, and IAA at 1.0 mg l^-1 were effective in inducing secondary and tertiary somatic embryos, which proliferated directly from the apical or cotyledonary portions of the primary somatic embryos. Single somatic embryos or clusters or embryos developed from the explanted primary embryos. Cytokinin (Kn, BA) inhibited adventitious embryogenesis. Secondary somatic embryos developed to maturation and later regenerated into plantlets in two stage process; firstly elongation of the shoot axes on MS +1.0 mg l^-1 Kn, secondly formation of root on 1.0 mg l^-1 Kn+1.0 mg^-1 GA₃ medium.Abbreviations 2,4-d 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - NAA naphthaleneacetic acid - IAA in-doleacetic acid - Kn kinetin - BA benzylaminopurine - PSE primary somatic embryo - SSE secondary somatic embryo - TSE tertiary somatic embryo     

Vegetative propagation of Begonia venosa Skan in vitro from inflorescence explants

Methods are described for the vegetative propagation of Begonia venosa Skan. Young flower buds are capable of producing callus which, contrasting to callus from leaves of adult plants, is very organogenic. For callus induction are required: BA and NAA at a conc. of 0.5 mgl^–1, 21 °C and low irradiance. Subculture of organogenic callus is optimal on a medium with 0.1 mgl^–1 BA and 2% glucose, whereas NAA is ommitted. Shoot development from preformed adventitious buds is enhanced by lowering the BA and glucose conc. Optimal rooting of excised shoots is obtained on a medium without regulators and a low glucose level. No visible mutations can be detected in the plant material, even not at the flowering stage.Abbreviations (BA) 6-Benzylaminopurine - (2iP) N⁶-(2-isopentenyl)adenine - (MS)(1) Murashige and Skoog - (NAA) 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid Publ. 535     

Media and gelling agent effect on cotton callus initiation from excised seed hypocotyls

A factorial experiment was performed to develop a medium which would support initiation and proliferation of callus in a diverse group of exotic lines of Gossypium hirsutum. Seed hypocotyls of T1, T25 and T133 were cultured on Linsmaier and Skoog (LS) basal medium (1965) with NAA or 2,4-D tested in combination with BA or kinetin. The best medium from this study was then compared to five published media for support of callus initiation and growth of the varieties Acala 1517-75, Coker 500, Dunn 120, Paymaster 303 and TM1. Furthermore, the effects of two gelling agents, Difco-Bacto agar and Kelco Gelrite, were investigated with each of the six media. Significantly more callus was initiated on media solidified with Gelrite than with agar. The best callus production occurred on LS medium supplemented with 30gl^-1 glucose, 0.1 mgl^-1 BA and 0.1 mgl^-1 2,4-D.     

In vitro zygotic embryo culture of an endangered forest tree Givotia rottleriformis and factors affecting its germination and seedling growth

Summary This study reports a protocol for germination of Givotia rottleriformis (var. Tel. Thella Poniki) using zygotic embryo culture. A 100% germination was obtained by culturing the embryos on Murashige and Skoog medium containing 30 gl^−1 sucrose. A sucrose concentration lower or higher than 30 gl^−1 resulted in lower germination or promoted callus formation. The seedling growth was promoted by the addition of 100 mgl^−1 tyrosine in the medium. Seedlings germinated in the presence of 0.2–0.4 mgl^−1 α-naphthaleneacetic acid and 0.3–0.5 mgl^−1 indole-3-butyric acid were abnormal, showing a slender stem with slender roots or forming callus with stout roots. Germination also affected embryo orientation in culture; placing embryos upright on the medium was most beneficial for germination. The in vitro-germinated seedlings were acclimatized in soil under shady conditions with a survival rate of 60–70%. These plants were phenotypically normal, healthy, and similar to donor plants. This protocol will be useful for overcoming seed dormancy and for rapid multiplication and conservation of G. rottleriformis using zygotic embryo culture.     

Sugarbeet leaf disc culture: an improved procedure for inducing morphogenesis

In preparation for gene transfer experiments we investigated factors that might affect the production of shoots and somatic embryos from the wound callus of cultured sugarbeet leaf discs. A complex interaction was found between the leaf disc plating density, the disc culture medium, the source-shoot culture medium and the frequency of disc transfer to fresh medium. The most productive protocol utilized: source shoots maintained on MS medium containing 0.25 mg 1^-1 BA; multiple leaf discs (ten 4-mm discs/plate) plated onto an enriched modification of MS medium (RV) containing 1.0 mg 1^-1 BA and solidified with 0.3% Gelrite (not permitted to dry during hardening); and transfer of the discs to fresh medium every two weeks during the first month. This standard protocol produced more callus per plate and higher rates of morphogenesis per unit dry weight of callus than did the one-step method of Saunders and Doley. Water availability considerations were found to be critical to obtaining high morphogenic rates. Root induction frequency and quality was superior on shoots transplanted to MS medium containing 1 mg 1^-1 NAA as the sole growth regulator compared to IAA at the same concentration.Abbreviations BA N⁶-benzyladenine - IAA indole-3-acetic acid - NAA -naphthaleneacetic acid     

High frequency embryogenesis in immature zygotic embryos of sunflower

In the present investigation, nutritional requirements for induction of a high frequency of well formed somatic embryos (SEs) from zygotic embryos (ZEs) of sunflower were assessed. Variables like genotype, embryo size (0.5–10 mm), sucrose concentration (30–240 g l⁻¹), carbohydrate source (sucrose, glucose, maltose), agar strength (0.2–1.0%), basal media (MS, Gamborg, Nitsch, White), photoperiod (light/dark) and temperature (20–36°C) were tested. All these variables except photoperiod had significant effect on the frequency of embryogenesis. Highest frequency of embryogenesis was facilitated by Gamborg basal salt media, 120–210 g l⁻¹ sucrose, 0.8–1.0% agar, smaller sized embryos (0.5–2 mm) and incubation temperature of 28–32°C. In addition to these, growth regulator combinations (2,4-D, 2,4-D+kinetin, BA+NAA) in varying concentrations were tried. Media supplemented with 2,4-D promoted direct embryogenesis, BA+NAA facilitated formation of single/multiple shoots while there was no response on 2,4-D+kinetin supplemented media. Zygotic embryos with well differentiated embryos were transferred to growth regulator free half strength MS medium for whole plantlet development. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

In vitro regeneration in Trifolium. 1. Direct somatic embryogenesis in T. rubens (L.)

The origin and development of zygotic and somatic embryos of Trifolium rubens L. was studied with the aid of paraffin sections and light microscopy. Zygotic embryos were collected, fixed and prepared daily from one to ten days after cross-pollination. Somatic embryos were obtained by plating petiole sections on modified L2 medium with 0.015 mgl^-1 picloram and 0.1 mgl^-1 6-BAP. Cultured petioles were collected and fixed daily from one to 25 days after plating. Two regions in the vascular bundle sheath of cultured petioles gave rise to callus. The first region was adjacent to the phloem fibers and produced friable callus. The second region gave rise to compact callus that was connected to the fascicular cambium. Somatic embryos originated from single cells in the cortex directly without intervening callus formation and from single cells in the friable callus. In addition, embryos arose from meristematic regions in compact callus. Many early stages of embryogenesis (one, two and four-celled stages) were observed in the cortex and friable callus. Zygotic embryogenesis in Trifolium differs from other legumes in that the suspensor is short and has a broad attachment. This arrangement was observed in zygotic embryos of T. rubens and in many somatic embryos. However, a continuum of somatic embryogenesis was observed where some young embryos had a Trifolium suspensor-like arrangement while others were attached to a long narrow suspensor-like structure more characteristic of Medicago.     

Plant regeneration in tissue cultures of pepper (Capsicum annuum L. cv. mathania)

Leaf, stem, hypocotyl, cotyledon, root, shoot tip and embryo explants of Capsicum annuum L. cv. mathania were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) or kinetin (Kin) alone or in combination with 3-indoleacetic acid (IAA), 3-indolebutyric acid (IBA), α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) or 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). BAP (5.0 mgl⁻¹) in the medium was found to be the best growth regulator for shoot bud differentiation. Shoot buds cultured on 5.0 mgl⁻¹ BAP increased in number but did not elongate. For obtaining complete plantlets, shoot buds were placed on a medium with IBA or NAA (0.1 mgl⁻¹). Histological evidence revealed direct differentiation of buds from cotyledons. Regenerated plants were normal diploids. Unorganized callus could not be induced to differentiate shoot buds.     

Effects of type of explant and age,plant growth regulators and medium strength on somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Eucalyptus camaldulensis</Emphasis>

Plant regeneration was achieved through direct and indirect somatic embryogenesis in Eucalyptus camaldulensis. Callus was induced from mature zygotic embryos and from cotyledon explants collected from 10, 15, 25, and 30-day-old seedlings cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with different concentrations of naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). Maximum callus induction from mature zygotic embryos was obtained on MS basal medium containing 1 mg l⁻¹ NAA. The frequency of callus development varied based on the age of the cotyledon explants 10-day-old explants giving highest percentage on MS basal medium supplemented with 1 mg l⁻¹ NAA. Callus obtained from mature zygotic embryos gave highest frequency of somatic embryogenesis on MS basal medium containing 0.5 mg l⁻¹ benzyladenine (BA) and 0.1 mg l⁻¹ NAA. Separate age wise culture of the calli, obtained from cotyledons of different ages cultured separately, revealed high somatic embryogenic potential on callus from 10-day-old cotyledons. Direct somatic embryogenesis too was obtained from hypocotyl explants without an intervening callus phase on MS basal medium containing 0.5 mg l⁻¹ BA. The effects of abscisic acid (ABA), sucrose, and different strengths of MS medium on somatic embryo maturation and germination were also investigated. Number of mature somatic embryos increased with lower concentrations (0–1 mg l⁻¹) of ABA while no significant differences were observed at higher concentrations (2–5 mg l⁻¹) of ABA. Compared to basal medium containing lower concentrations of sucrose (1%), the MS medium supplemented with higher levels of sucrose (4%) showed significantly lower frequency of mature somatic embryos. Basal medium without any dilution gave the highest number of immature embryos. However, the number of mature embryos was high at higher medium dilutions.     

Somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration in elite genotypes of Picea koraiensis

Picea koraiensis, called Korean spruce, is an evergreen tree and found mostly in northeast Asia. In this study, plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis from open-pollinated immature zygotic embryos of nine genotypes of elite trees was established. Immature zygotic embryos were cultured onto RJW medium modified from 505 medium with 21.48 μM NAA, 2.22 μM BA, and 2.32 μM KT. The average frequency for all nine genotypes was 74.2%. Embryogenic calluses of the nine genotypes of elite trees were subcultured on RJW basal medium containing 8.06 μM NAA, 1.11 μM BA, and 1.16 μM kinetin. The calluses of three lines, 3^#, 9^#, and 2^#, were actively proliferated but others were not. Somatic embryogenesis was induced from the embryogenic callus in genotypes of 3^#, 9^#, and 2^# on RJW medium with ABA and 60 g l⁻¹ sucrose. Cotyledonary somatic embryos were subjected to a drying process. The drying of embryos by uncapping the culture bottle for 5 days on a clean bench resulted in a high frequency of germination of somatic embryos (87% in RJW medium). However, plantlet conversion from germinated embryos was greatly reduced and the optimal medium for plant conversion was 1/2 WPM or 1/2 BMI medium. In conclusion, we have, for the first time, established a plant regeneration system via somatic embryogenesis in the Korean spruce, which can be applied for rapid micropropagation of elite trees.     

The effect of explant material on somatic embryogenesis of Cyclamen persicum Mill

Somatic embryos of Cyclamen persicum Mill. could be produced through a callus phase from juvenile explant material including anthers, ovaries and zygotic embryos. The auxin 2,4-D (1.0–1.5 mg l^-1) and coconut milk (10% v/v) in MS medium were important factors for the induction of somatic embryogenesis. Somatic embryos germinated into plantlets in MS medium without growth regulators. The plants grew well in the greenhouse and flowered normally. The plants were phenotypically identical to the mother plants with a few exceptions.Abbreviations 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - NAA 1-naphthylacetic acid - IAA 3-indoleacetic acid - BA 6-benzyladenine - ABA abscisic acid - CM coconut milk     

Effects of growth regulators and genotypes on pyrethrum <Emphasis Type="Italic">In vitro</Emphasis>

Summary The effects of growth regulators on culture response of different pyrethrum (Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium Vis.) genotypes were investigated. In the genotype Sb/66/107, the presence of 2,4-dichorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) at 2 mgl⁻¹ promoted growth of callus, whereas benzyladenine and 1-naphthaleneacetic acid had no effect. Callus growth was also affected by the 2,4-D, ranging from 0.5 mgl⁻¹ for genotype Marwanga to 3.0 mgl⁻¹ for Ks/75/336. Among the genotypes, shoots were regenerated from calluses of Sb/66/107, 4331, Marwanga, and MA/70/1013.

Enhancing the productivity of hybrid yellow-poplar and hybrid sweetgum embryogenic cultures

Summary High-frequency embryogenesis systems were established for hybrid yellow-poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera×L. chinense) and hybrid sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua×L. formosana) by modifying a medium originally developed for embryogenic yellow-poplar cultures. Embryogenic cultures of both hybrids, consisting of proembryogenic masses (PEMs), were initiated from immature hybrid seeds on an induction-maintenance medium (IMM) supplemented with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), benzyladenine (BA), and casein hydrolyzate (CH). For hybrid yellow-poplar, as many as 2100 germinable somatic embryos per 4000 cells or cell clumps were produced when PEMs were grown in liquid IMM lacking CH, at a pH that varied with genotype (3.5 or 5.6), followed by size fractionation and plating on semisolid embryo development medium (DM; IMM lacking 2,4-D and BA) without CH, but supplemented with 4.0 mgl⁻¹ (15 μM) abscisic acid. For hybrid sweetgum, up to 1650 germinable somatic embryos per 4000 cells or cell clumps were produced when PEMs were grown in liquid IMM without CH, but with 550 mgl⁻¹ l-glutamine, 510 mg l⁻¹ asparagine, and 170 mg l⁻¹ arginine at pH 5.6. Somatic embryos developed from cell clumps on DM without any plant growth regulators or other supplements. Hundreds of somatic embryos of both hybrids were germinated on DM without CH, transferred to potting mix, and hardened off in a humidifying chamber for transfer to the greenhouse.
