Tuberization in potato is a complex developmental process resulting in the differentiation of stolon into the storage organ, tuber. During tuberization, change in gene expression has been known to occur. To study gene expression during tuberization over the time, in vitro tuberization system provides a suitable tool, due to its synchronous in tuber formation. An early six days axillary bud growing on tuber induction medium is a crucial development since a large number of genes change in their expression patterns during this period. In order to identify, isolate and sequencing the genes which displaying differential pattern between tuberizing and non-tuberizing potato explants during six days in vitro tuberization, cDNA-AFLP fingerprint, method for the visualization of gene expression using cDNA as template which is amplified to generate an RNA-fingerprinting, was used in this experiment. Seventeen primer combinations were chosen based on their expression profile from cDNA-AFLP fingerprint. Forty five TDFs (transcript derived fragment), which displayed differential expressions, were obtained. Tuberizing explants had much more TDFs, which developmentally regulated, than those from non tuberizing explants. Seven TDFs were isolated, cloned and then sequenced. One TDF did not find similarity in the current databases. The nucleotide sequence of TDF F showed best similarity to invertase ezymes from the databases. The homology of six TDFs with known sequences is discussed in this paper.

ABSTRACTPlant reproduction is one key biological process very sensitive to heat stress and, as a consequence, enhanced global warming poses serious threats to food security worldwide. In this work we have used a high-resolution ribosome profiling technology to study how heat affects both the transcriptome and the translatome of Arabidopsis thaliana pollen germinated in vitro. Overall, a high correlation between transcriptional and translational responses to high temperature was found, but specific regulations at the translational level were also present. We show that bona fide heat shock genes are induced by high temperature indicating that in vitro germinated pollen is a suitable system to understand the molecular basis of heat responses. Concurrently heat induced significant down-regulation of key membrane transporters required for pollen tube growth, thus uncovering heat-sensitive targets. We also found that a large subset of the heat-repressed transporters is specifically up-regulated, in a coordinated manner, with canonical heat-shock genes in pollen tubes grown in vitro and semi in vivo, based on published transcriptomes from Arabidopsis thaliana. Ribosome footprints were also detected in gene sequences annotated as non-coding, highlighting the potential for novel translatable genes and translational dynamics.

Present study was conducted to improve microencapsulation process of Clostridium tyrobutyricum (Ct) by optimizing process parameters to improve its in-vitro characteristics over that of free cells. All process parameters including wall material (w/v concentration: modified starch 3-7%; gelatin 2-6%; maltodextrin 3-7%), sample flow rate (250-450 mLh-1) and inlet air temperature (105-145°C) were analysed through single factor analysis. Response surface design test was used to develop multiple quadratic regression equations to fit the functional relationship between factors and response values and to choose the optimal conditions. The optimal conditions for maximum survival rate (82.030%) of encapsulated Ct were: 4% gelatin, 5% modified starch and 5% maltodextrin concentration with sample flow rate of 350 mLh-1 at inlet air temperature of 105°C. Encapsulation reduced the survival loss of Ct from 1.990 to 1.080 lgCFUg-1 under strong acidic condition (pH1) than free Ct. Survival loss of free Ct was 31.914% more than encapsulated Ct under high temperature treatment (90°C). Similarly, protected Ct showed higher survival rate under simulated gastric condition with long storage life. Encapsulation of Ct through optimized spray drying method efficiently improved its survival rate under strong acidic or high temperature environment with safe transit through gastrointestinal tract and also eradicates the technological limitations which preventing the use of many probiotic strains

Mutation techniques through gamma ray irradiation is useful to support breeding programs for genetic improvement of wheat. Genetic improvement on tolerance to high temperatures is necessary for development of wheat in Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of radiosensitivity to be used as the basis for the induction of mutations by gamma ray irradiation on embryogenic callus to obtain putative mutants with high temperature tolerance. Explants used were embryogenic callus cultured on MS medium containing 30 g L-1 sukrosa, 2 g L-1 gelrite, 2 mg L-1 2.4D and 1 mg L-1 picloram. Culture incubated for 6 weeks with temperature 20±4 oC in the room culture. Five irradiation doses (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 Gy) were used in radiosensitivity testing. A factorial, completely randomized design was applied to the experiment. The first factor was selection temperature with three levels (25, 30 and 35 oC), and the second factor was doses of gamma ray iradiation with three levels (10, 20, and 30 Gy). The result showed that radiosensitivity levels varied among varieties, LD20: 7.79 to 18.96 Gy and LD50: 24.29-33.63 Gy. Selayar variety which has highest sensitivity value compared with Dewata and Nias. Increasing doses of iradiation and temperature decrease survival of embryogenic callus, number of embryos, and percentage of germinated plantlets. Based on in vitro selection using high temperature (25, 30, and 35 oC), the obtained 19 putative mutants were derived from embryos that appear on the surface of embryogenic callus survival after irradiation and high temperature selection.<br />Keywords: in vitro selection, putative mutant, radiosensitivity, somatic embryo

Transformation of N-(1,1-dimethylpropynyl)-3,5-dichlorobenzamide (compound I) in soil occurs readily and two products are produced, initial cyclization giving 2-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-5-methyleneoxazoline (compound II) followed by subsequent hydrolysis to N-(1,1-dimethylacetonyl)-3,5-dichlorobenzamide (compound III). These transformations can be brought aboutin vitro, the first step by means of acid or base, and the second by extended treatment with acid. The rate of cyclization and hydrolysis of compound I varies directly with soil temperature, being rapid at high temperature (37 C) and very slow at low temperature (5 C). The rate of chemical change of compound I in soil is influenced to a much greater degree by temperature than by soil moisture content. The effect of soil type on transformation of compound I was studied and compounds II and III were present in five of the six soils examined. The herbicidal activity of compounds II and III was negligible in comparison to compound I.

A new method for the preparation of the cross-linked agarose beads entrapped activated charcoal (CAAC) is reported. Since the agarose-encapsulated adsorbents reported elsewhere cannot stand high temperature for sterilization, the CAAC has the advantage of thermal stability to withstand autoclave at 121°C. for ½ hour without breaking up or melting. A further advantage of CAAC is that the adsorbent has a much better consistency with good mechanical strength and elasticity, so that it can be formed into beads of a diameter less than 1 mm. This will not only give a better adsorption capacity than larger beads, but can also assure a better blood flow than soft beads which usually interfere in hemoperfusion due to compacting and sludging. Preliminary investigations indicate that the CAAC is relatively hemocompatible.
