Abstract: | Summary A protocol for obtaining regenerated fertile plants from mesophyll protoplasts of Arabidopsis thaliana is reported. Protoplasts were isolated from leaves of 21-to 28-day-old Arabidopsis plants grown in a controlled environment. Sustained divisions were achieved when protoplasts were embedded in beads formed by 1.4% sodium alginate in the presence of 50mM CaCl2 in 0.4 mannitol, which was then exchanged againts modified B5 medium. About 0.4%–0.6% of the protoplasts developed into colonies of which 80%–90% formed shoots and subsequently regenerated to fertile plants. Seeds harvested from more than 200 independently regenerated plants were sown and germination frequencies of more than 95% were obtained. Furthermore, the F1 plants did not show any evidence of somaclonal variation on visual inspection. This protocol was originally developed for Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia; however it was shown to be applicable also for the genotypes Wassilewskija, Landsberg erecta and Estland though with differing efficiencies.Abbreviations FDA fluorescein diacetate - CM culture medium - SRM shoot regeneration medium - SEM shoot elongation medium - RM rooting medium - PE plating effciency - NAA -naphthaleneacetic acid - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - IAA indole-3-acetic acid - IBA indole-3-butyric acid - BAP 6-benzylaminopurine - Kin kinetin - 2-iP 2-isopentenyladenine - GA3 gibberetic acid |
