Thin Cell Layer Culture

In vitro culture establishment is one of the most important stages in micropropagation. The disinfectant effectiveness depends on the type of surface disinfectant, concentration and the time treatment. In this initial study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were used as a disinfectant for petioles, flower stalks and stems of Begonia tuberous. In addition, thin cell layer culture (TCL) technique has been applied for the purpose of somatic embryogenesis. The results showed that AgNPs were effective in eliminating infectious microorganisms on B. tuberous explants; which were identified included 4 species of fungi (Fusarium sp., Aspergillus aculeatus, Trichoderma sp. and Penicillium sp.) and 1 species of bacteria (Pseudomonas sp.). At concentrations of 200 ppm and 300 ppm, AgNPs were not only effective in disinfection but also increased the induction rate of somatic embryogenesis in flower stalk TCL explants (approximately 40.00%); a similar effect was observed in stem TCL explants at the same concentration. Meanwhile, for petiole TCL explants, the induction rate of somatic embryogenesis was optimal when using AgNPs at a concentration of 100 - 300 ppm to disinfected the explant. In contrast, at high (400 ppm) or low (50 ppm) concentrations of AgNPs did not play a disinfecting role and stimulated somatic embryogenesis. In addition, explants derived from AgNPs sterilization did not show any abnormalities in somatic embryogenesis with shapes such as globular, heart, torpedo, and cotyledon. AgNPs showed double efficacy in sterilization of explants and improved efficiency of somatic embryogenesis from TCL petioles, flower stalks and stems explants; thus increasing the efficiency micropropagation of B. tuberous.

Thin Cell Layer Culture

An efficient method of plant regeneration and subsequent growth and development of Dendrobium hybrid Sonia was developed using intact seedling, shoot tip and thin cell layer. Maximum number of PLBs was obtained in MS liquid medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l NAA and 1mg/l BAP through shoot tip and thin cell layer culture (TCL). Highest number of adventitious shoot formation was recorded in 0.5 mg/l of NAA and 2 mg/l of BAP through shoot tip culture. In shoot tip and TCL cultures, the necrosis was checked in presence of NAA (0.5 mg/l) and BAP (1 mg/l). Maximum callus frequency was recorded in NAA and BAP (0.5 mg/l) through thin cell layer culture. Direct PLB formation was better at 1.0 μM concentration in all the three polyamines tested. Three polyamines tested were effective in direct PLB formation as well as adventitious shoots. Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 30(1): 77-86, 2020 (June)

Thin Cell Layer Culture

A basic factor underlying the success of large‐scale micropropagation and genetic transformation of any plant species is regeneration. In order to regenerate propagules of Rosa damascena Mill. on a large scale, an efficient and improved in vitro propagation system has been established using transverse thin cell layer culture (tTCL). By optimizing the position of the tissue and applying an improved selection procedure, in vitro shoots were elongated in 8 weeks of culture. Modified Murashige and Skoog (1962)(MS) medium fortified with 4.0 mg l‐1 6‐benzylaminopurine (BAP) and 0.4mg l‐1 anaphthalene acetic acid (NAA) gave optimal shoot regeneration. The explant was inoculated on this medium in the upright position and exhibited a high frequency of shoot regeneration (~96.66%), and it also gave the highest number of shoots (22.33/explant). The horizontally placed explant on an average 7.66 shoots/explant. Our experiments indicate that explant orientation strongly influences the organogenesis response. The frequency of shoot initiation and the number of multiple shoots produced from each explant were significantly dependent on the plant source, concentration of plant growth regulators and the orientation of the explants and contributed significantly to in vitro regeneration. Rooting of well developed shoots was achieved on hormone free ¼ strength MS medium with 4% sucrose.
