Protocorms of Cymbidium (Orchidaceae) were grown on media containing different organic nutrients. Of the sugars tested sucrose was better than maltose, glucose and fructose, and sucrose had an optimum concentration of 3 to 4 %. D-Mannose was significantly less effective than the other sugars. The amino acid mixtures casamino acids (casein hydrolysate) and tryptone increased growth while yeast extract was inhibitory and malt extract without effect. Optimal concentrations were 2 to 3 g · l-1 casamino acids and 3 to 4 g · l-1 tryptone. It was to some extent possible to substitute the amino acid mixtures with a single amino acid (glutamine at 300 mg · l-1). Arginine was inhibitory and asparagine was without any effect. Vitamins proved to be unnecessary although there was a tendency towards increased growth with nicotinic acid and meso-inositol. Purines and pyrimidines were added to the medium but with no effect. Liquid endosperm from coconuts (10 to 15%) increased growth while the liquid endosperm from Aesculus hippocastanum was inhibitory. On the basis of these results a revised medium is proposed for the in vitro propagation of Cymbidium.  相似文献

Whole seeds, excised embryos, and excised endosperm ofSantalum album were aseptically cultured with a view to studying seed germination in isolation from the host species, and to establishing callus cultures from both embryo and endosperm for comparative studies et their morphogenesis. Seed germination and seedling formation occurred normally only on modified White's medium supplemented with casein hydrolysate or coconut milk, or with both substances. Neither the excised embryo nor the endosperm grew on any of the culture media tested. However in about 17 per cent seed cultures on White's medium supplemented with 2,4-D, kinetin, and yeast extract, the endosperm degenerated, whereas the embryo callused and subsequently differentiated into innumerable embryoids; eventually the embryoids developed into normal plantlets. Callusing of the endosperm occurred also in seed cultures on four media supplemented variously with 2,4-D, kinetin, and yeast extract. Although the endosperm tissue grew through several passages no organ fornation was observed.  相似文献

In vitro cultures of maize (Zea mays L.) endosperm derived from the dent inbred A636 have been maintained in liquid culture using Straus' medium for over six years. We have studied the growth of this tissue in four basic media and various modifications of the organic constituents of these media. Auxins and kinetin did not improve growth rate or degree of cell dispersion and thiamine (0.4 mg/l) was the only vitamin required by this tissue. Growth equal to that in the standard Straus medium and improved cell separation was obtained in a medium containing only inorganic salts, sucrose, and thiamine. Although asparagine was not required when high quantities of NH4NO3 and KNO3 were included, more rapid growth was obtained when 2 g/l of asparagine was added. The simplified medium reported in this paper should facilitate the use of maize endosperm tissue in various studies of metabolism, hormone biosynthesis, etc.  相似文献

Bacillus popilliae NRRL B-2309S forms several million refractile spores/ml in liquid shaken cultures. A suitable medium includes glucose, K2HPO4, water, and three selected ingredients-activated carbon, a yeast autolyzate, and a casein hydrolyzate. Only 4 out of 26 lots of commercial yeast autolyzates tried were sporogenic. However, spore formation in the presence of the four was poor and erratic unless a compatible casein hydrolyzate also was present. Five of eight lots of casein hydrolyzates improved the sporogenicity of selected yeast products to various degrees. A comparison of amino acid compositions of yeast and casein lysates sheds no light on differences between suitable and unsuitable ones. Less refined yeast and casein products seem preferable.  相似文献

The insect pathogen Bacillus popilliae Dutky causes a fatal milky disease of Japanese beetle larvae. Spores of the bacterium offer a biological means of controlling this insect. While satisfactory sporulation in vitro has not yet been accomplished, conditions have been developed for the proliferation of vegetative cells in shaken flasks and aerated fermentors. Vegetative cultures are maintained by frequent transfer or by lyophilization. Media based on yeast extract are used routinely, but corn steep liquor and casein hydrolyzates afford comparable yields of 5 × 108 cells/ml. in 16–24 hr. Nutritional requirements have been established for growth in a synthetic medium. Oxygen availability affects the pathway of carbohydrate catabolism and is necessary for optimal growth. In rapidly growing cultures, a short period of maximum viability is characteristically followed by rapid death of the cells. When inoculum size and transfer time are suitably manipulated, viable cell yields reach 1–2 × 109/ml. Alternative methods of propagation, including the addition of particulate carbon, and procedures designed either to neutralize acids or to remove metabolic products by dialysis, do not markedly enhance the yield of cells per volume of medium, although viability may be prolonged.  相似文献

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.  相似文献

Lactic acid production was investigated for batch and repeated batch cultures of Enterococcus faecalis RKY1, using wood hydrolyzate and corn steep liquor. When wood hydrolyzate (equivalent to 50 g l−1 glucose) supplemented with 15–60 g l−1 corn steep liquor was used as a raw material for fermentation, up to 48.6 g l−1 of lactic acid was produced with, volumetric productivities ranging between 0.8 and 1.4 g l−1 h−1. When a medium containing wood hydrolyzate and 15 g l−1 corn steep liquor was supplemented with 1.5 g l−1 yeast extract, we observed 1.9-fold and 1.6-fold increases in lactic acid productivity and cell growth, respectively. In this case, the nitrogen source cost for producing 1 kg lactic acid can be reduced to 23% of that for fermentation from wood hydrolyzate using 15 g l−1 yeast extract as a single nitrogen source. In addition, lactic acid productivity could be maximized by conducting a cell-recycle repeated batch culture of E. faecalis RKY1. The maximum productivity for this process was determined to be 4.0 g l−1 h−1.  相似文献

The fermentation of sugar beet juice as well as juice syrup medium by Zymomonas mobilis inoculum attached to stainless steel wire spheres was investigated. A semi‐synthetic sucrose medium enriched with mineral salts and yeast extract was used as the control. It was established that raw sugar beet juice ensured good Zymomonas mobilis culture growth and slightly decreased ethanol synthesis applying both flame‐burned and TiCl4‐treated wire spheres as carriers (Qx = 0.05—0.06 g/l × h; Qeth = 1.02—1.22 g/l × h). High ethanol yield was also observed in juice medium (Y = 0.45‐0.46 g/g), however, levan synthesis with this medium decreased. The application of juice syrup brought about less growth effect and ethanol synthesis as compared to juice medium. The use of semi‐synthetic sucrose medium resulted in high levan production (Qlev = 0.6—0.7 g/l × h), however, reduced ethanol production by 40%. In conclusion, sugar beet juice or syrup is recommendable for the preparation of Zymomonas mobilis inoculum. The levan production stage has to be realized using an optimized semi‐synthetic sucrose medium. The installed wire spheres filled with inocula provided the possibility for a repeated batch fermentation process, which could be recommended for both juice and semi‐synthetic sucrose medium fermentation.  相似文献

The participation of the genotype and of organ specifity effect in the quality of morphogenetic response (callogenesis, bud and root formation) of primary maize explants has been investigated. The presence of synthetic auxins — especially 2,4-D at 1 to 5 mg 1?1 conc. - in cultivation medium was essential for both callus formation and continuous growth of tissue and suspension cultures. Anatomic structure of callus cultures is permanently heterogeneous, their growth is ensured by the action of meristems of the type found in root tips, and by repeated callogenesis from malformed roots. Adventive buds and plants could be regenerated only from cultures of embryonal origin (of one line). The presence or absence of the endosperm gene “opaque” did not influence callogenesis intensity in cultures of isolated embryos; however the morphogenetic response was clearly “line specific”.  相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae grows very poorly in dilute acid lignocellulosic hydrolyzate during the anaerobic fermentation for fuel ethanol production. However, yeast cells grown aerobically on the hydrolyzate have increased tolerance for the hydrolyzate. Cultivation of yeast on part of the hydrolyzate has therefore the potential of enabling increased ethanol productivity in the fermentation of the hydrolyzate. To evaluate the ability of the yeast to grow in the hydrolyzate, fed-batch cultivations were run using the ethanol concentration as input variable to control the feed-rate. The yeast then grew in an undetoxified hydrolyzate with a specific growth rate of 0.19 h−1 by controlling the ethanol concentration at a low level during the cultivation. However, the biomass yield was lower for the cultivation on hydrolyzate compared to synthetic media: with an ethanol set-point of 0.25 g/l the yield was 0.46 g/g on the hydrolyzate, compared to 0.52 g/g for synthetic media. The main reason for the difference was not the ethanol production per se, but a significant production of glycerol at a high specific growth rate. The glycerol production may be attributed to an insufficient respiratory capacity.  相似文献

It is shown that among various grains, wheat and barley contain in the endosperm a toxic substance to brewing yeast, and the substance is easily extracted with a dilute sulfuric acid solution. One unit of the toxicity is defined as the lowest amount of the extract which inhibits the yeast growth in 10 ml of wort medium. Two or more units of the toxicity not only inhibited the yeast growth, but also caused the death of yeast cells. Although the toxic effect was not observed when divalent metallic ions such as Ca2+, Zn2+ or Fe2+ were present at a concentration of 5 × l0?3 mole or more, the toxicity could be recovered by the addition of ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetate (EDTA). Genetic relationships on the content of the toxicity in wheat and barley and sensitivity of yeast strains to the toxicity are also presented.  相似文献

Strain IVIC-Pb9, unlike other strains ofParacoccidioides brasiliensis, cannot grow on a simple basal medium and requires the addition of casein hydrolyzate or yeast extract. The present study shows that this requirement is limited to very low concentrations of methionine and that methionine concentrations above 0.01% inhibit growth. The levels of glucose and organic nitrogen required for maximum rate of growth of strain IVIC-Pb9 on both basal medium and GGY medium composed of glucose, glycine and yeast extract were also determined. An evaluation of the suitability of the GGY medium revealed that its composition, as commonly used to grow dimorphic fungi, is not adequate to obtain a maximum rate of growth with strain IVIC-Pb9 ofP. brasiliensis.  相似文献

Summary A chemically defined medium, composed of inorganic salts, glucose, asparagine, cystine, and a vitamin supplement, has been devised for growth of the yeast phase ofHistoplasma capsulatum. Growth in this medium was abundant and compared favorably with that in media containing complex natural material. Conversion of each of the 20 strains examined was accomplished by one or more passages on agar slants of the medium and incubation of the cultures at 37° C. Yeast phase cultures on this medium have been stored for 6 months or more at approximately 4° C without conversion or loss of viability. Of the 20 strains examined for vitamin requirements of the yeast phase, all were partially deficient for thiamine; nine for inositol; five, either partially or completely deficient for niacin; and one, completely deficient for biotin.No specific amino acid was required for growth of the yeast phase, but an organic source of sulfur and one of nitrogen were essential. Cystine and cysteine were equally effective for growth of the yeast phase when supplied on an equivalent sulfur basis and very little difference in growth occurred in media which contained equal amounts of nitrogen in any one of the following compounds: asparagine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and proline,Of the 20 strains, all but one, which requires biotin, were capable of continued growth in the mycelial phase when subcultured on an agar medium containing only inorganic salts and dextrose, but growth was improved significantly by asparagine or casein hydrolysate.This investigation was supported in part by a PHS research grant (AI-03524) from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Public Health Service.  相似文献

A balance of electrons available from acetic acid consumed for growth and oxygen uptake in the aerobic- and photoheterotrophic growth of Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides S on acetate-minimal medium could be realized the same as in the carbon balance. The unmeasured amounts of yeast extract consumed by the cells grown on propionate–yeast extract media were indirectly estimated from the balance equation of electrons available from carbon substrates. The specific consumption rate of the yeast extract increased with an increase in propionate consumption rate in aerobic and photoheterotrophic cultures. Growth yields from acetic acid and from propionic acid plus yeast extract were calculated on the electron level, i.e., YX/ave g cell produced/equivalent electrons available from substrate consumed. YX/ave values were 5.0 to 5.8 g cell/ave in photoheterotrophic cultures and 2.7 to 3.6 in aerobic–heterotrophic cultures regardless of different medium compositions.  相似文献

The moderately thermophilic iron-oxidizing bacterium strain TI-1, which lacks enzyme systems involved in CO2 fixation, grows at 45°C in Fe2+ medium supplemented with yeast extract to give a maximum cell growth of 1.0 × 108 cells per ml, but does not grow in Fe2+ medium without yeast extract. To elucidate the physiology of the strain, a synthetic medium was developed. It was found that the best synthetic medium was Fe2+-6AA, containing Fe2+, salts, and the following six l-amino acids: alanine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, arginine, serine, and histidine. In this medium, strain TI-1 showed a maximum cell growth of 10 × 108 cells/ml. The six amino acids in the Fe2+-6AA medium were used not only as a carbon source but also as a source of nitrogen. Inorganic nitrogen sources, such as ammonium ion, hydrazine, hydroxylamine, nitrite, and nitrate, were not used as a sole source of nitrogen, but rather strongly inhibited the utilization of the six amino acids at 1 mM. In the Fe2+ (10 mM)-6AA medium supplemented with 21 mM Fe3+, reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+ that was dependent on the added amino acids was observed, suggesting another role of the amino acids in the growth of strain TI-1. Washed, intact cells of strain TI-1 had the activity to reduce Fe3+ to Fe2+.  相似文献

Summary Totipotent tissue cultures of maize (Zea mays L.) have previously been initiated from various explant tissues. In this paper, we present an alternative source of callus induction.A callus of maize (G 204 hybrid) was obtained from intact kernels grown on Linsmair and Skoog RM medium supplemented with 20 mg 2,4-dichlorphenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) per litre. The callus growth was greatest from the first node of the seedling shoot. Occasionally, callus growth was observed from the radicle and coleopticle regions. The callus was easily transferred and maintained on a medium with 2 mg/L 2,4-D. This callus formed numerous roots and leaf-like structures when grown on a medium containing 800 mg/L yeast extract, 30 g/L sucrose and 10 g/L agar.  相似文献

Callus cultures of carnation, Dianthus caryophyllus L. ev. G. J. Sim, were grown on a synthetic medium of half strength Murashige and Skoog salts, 3 % sucrose, 100 mg/l of myo-inositol, 0.5 mg/l each of thiamin, HCl, pyridoxin, HCl and nicotinic acid and 10 g/l agar. Optimal concentrations of growth regulators were observed to be 3 × 10?6M indoleacetic acid (JAA) combined with 3 × 10?6M benzylaminopurin (BAP) or 10?6M 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) alone. IAA + BAP caused a 100 fold increase in fresh weight over 4 weeks at 25°C. Addition of casein hydrolysate increased growth further. Cell suspension cultures worked best in media containing 2,4-D in which they had a doubling time of about 2 days. Filtered suspensions were successfully plated on agar in petri dishes, but division was never observed in single cells. The cultures initiated roots at higher concentrations of IAA or NAA, but all attempts to induce formation of shoots or em-bryoids gave negative results.  相似文献

A chemically defined medium is desirable for nutritional studies and is frequently necessary for biochemical investigations. Several defined media are available for use with tissue and cell cultures from dicotyledonous plants. A fully defined medium has now been developed for cell suspension cultures from sugarcane. Prior to this, the only medium successfully used for cell cultures of monocotyledonous plants was a modification of Straus' synthetic medium (used to grow cell suspensions of corn). Cell suspension cultures from sugarcane stalk parenchyma, originally established in complex media containing coconut milk or yeast extract, can be grown in this synthetic medium, which consists of inorganic salts, vitamins, sucrose, 2.4-dicliloropheuoxyacetic acid, and a mixture of 13 amino acids. The most important of the amino acids are arginine aspartic acid, and glutamic acid. This simplified medium wilt aid in the investigation of the unusual and important role of arginine in sugar-cane growth and metabolism.  相似文献

The effects of three organic compounds were tested on one of the most used marine micro-algae in the aquaculture of molluscs and crustaceans, Tetraselmis suecica. Studies were made in axenic conditions with yeast extract, peptone and glucose added to the culture medium, each alone, in combinations of two or all together. Medium without any organic compound was used for the control. Cultures containing yeast extract grew best, reaching maximum cell density of 3.79 × 106 and 3.84 × 106 cells ml−1. The organic carbon source affected the biochemical composition. The components most affected were the carbohydrates, with values between 6.5 pg cell−1 in control cultures and 48.5 pg cell−1 in glucose cultures. Protein content ranged between 27.5 pg cell−1 in control cultures and 88.6 pg cell−1 in yeast + glucose + peptone cultures. The lipid content changed little. Maximum protein yields were reached in cultures with yeast + glucose and with yeast - glucose - peptone, with values of 24.6 and 28.2 mg 1−1 d−1, respectively. These values are 22 and 25 times those in control cultures. A maximum carbohydrate yield of 7.9 mg carbohydrate per litre per day was obtained in yeast + glucose + peptone cultures, 27 times that in the control cultures. The maximum lipid yield was obtained with yeast + glucose + peptone and yeast + glucose. Maximum energy values were 308 kcal 1 in yeast extract - glucose - peptone cultures and 279 kcal 1−1 in yeast extract + glucose cultures. Gross energy values in control cultures were 24.5 kcal 1−1, but peptone cultures presented the minimum energy value, 22 kcal 1−1. The yeast extract: glucose ratio in the culture medium was optimized. A ratio 2:1 produced the best yields in cells, protein, carbohydrate and gross energy.  相似文献

Fed batch cultures were performed to investigate the effect of yeast extract concentration on the kinetics of growth and acetic acid production of recombinant Escherichia coli BL21 in a synthetic medium. Three runs were performed with 40g/l total glucose concentration. The yeast extract/glucose ratio (YE/G; w/w), was 0.1, 0.05 and 0.025 in the feed. These decreasing YE/G values did not affect growth kinetics, but reduced the final cell concentration by about 10%, and also reduced the cell yield. Experiments with 60g/l total glucose concentration, one with a YE/G of 0.025 in the feed and the other without yeast extract, showed final acetic acid concentrations of 5.1 and 0.5g/l respectively, without any difference in cellular concentration. Although there was no significant influence on growth kinetics and final cellular concentration, the cell fermentative capacity was enhanced by yeast extract. The feed medium without yeast extract was the best condition for control purposes in high cell density cultures and for recombinant gene expression.  相似文献
