Cryopreservation by droplet vitrification was applied to hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). axillary buds of the Italian cultivated variety Tonda Gentile Romana, which were collected from in vitro growing shoots, immersed in ice cooled PVS2 or PVS3 for 60 or 90 min, then transferred to a droplet of vitrification solution, placed on a strip of aluminium foil, and plunged into liquid nitrogen (LN). Additionally, the effect on the recovery of the mother plant after cryopreservation was evaluated, following a cold pre-treatment at 4 °C for 3 months. The highest regrowth percentage (56.7%) was obtained after applying PVS3 for 60 min, while the application of PVS2 for the same amount of time reduced regrowth to 41.5%. Increasing the exposure to vitrification solutions to 90 min reduced regrowth to 43.3% when PVS3 was applied, and 35.6% if PVS2 was used. The cold pre-treatment on the mother plant did not significantly improve overall regrowth. The cryopreservation process did not decline the rooting ability of the recovered shoots.

The study focused on an economically-important ornamental outdoor shrub, Nandina domestica, with the aims to (i) optimize an effective in vitro conservation method, and (ii) develop a cryopreservation protocol for shoot tips by the PVS2 vitrification and droplet-vitrification techniques. For in vitro conservation of shoot cultures, the tested parameters were sucrose content in the storage medium (30, 45, 60 g/L) and storage temperature (4 °C or 8 °C). Cryopreservation was performed by applying the PVS2 vitrification solution, in 2-ml cryovials or in drops over aluminum foil strips, for 15, 30, 60 or 90 min at 0 °C, followed by the direct immersion in liquid nitrogen of shoot tips. Results show that N. domestica shoots can be conserved successfully for 6 months at both the temperatures tested, especially when 60 g/L sucrose is used in the storage medium. However, conservation at 4 °C showed to be more appropriate, as hyperhydricity was observed in post-conservation of shoots coming from storage at 8 °C. As for cryopreservation, a daily gradual increase of sucrose concentration (from 0.25 to 1.0 M) produced better protection to the samples that were stored in liquid nitrogen. Indeed, with this sucrose treatment method, a 30-min PVS2 incubation time was enough to produce, 60 days after thawing, the best recovery (47% and 50%) of shoot tips, cryopreserved with PVS2 vitrification and droplet-vitrification, respectively.

SummaryIn vitro shoot tips of the blackberry cultivar ‘Čačanska Bestrna’ were cryopreserved using the droplet vitrification technique. Upon loading (30 min) in a solution of 1.9 M glycerol and 0.5 M sucrose, the explants were dehydrated for 40 min on ice with the PVS A3 vitrification solution (glycerol 37.5%, dimethyl sulfoxide 15%, ethylene glycol 15% and sucrose 22.5%) and for 40 min at room temperature with the PVS3 solution (glycerol 50% and sucrose 50%). They were subsequently frozen in individual microdroplets of vitrification solution, by direct immersion in liquid nitrogen (LN), and kept therein for 2, 4, 8 and 24 h. The explant rewarming was performed in an unloading solution (0.8 M sucrose) for 30 min at room temperature. The duration of LN exposure did not exert significant effects on the survival and regrowth of explants in both types of vitrification solutions. The survival and regrowth of cryopreserved shoot tips dehydrated with PVS3 solution ranged between 90–95% and 80–90%, respectively. However, dehydration with PVS A3 resulted in a lower survival rate (80–90%) and a considerably lower regrowth rate (55–65%) of explants. Monitoring the shoots regenerated in the in vitro culture revealed their normal capacity for multiplication and rooting in comparison with the controls, which fully confirms the purpose of cryopreservation in the long-term preservation of plant material.

Papaya has high genetic variability because it is an open-pollinated plant and has genotype and phenotypeare that are easily changed due to environment changes. Cryopreservation is a storing method of germplasm in liquid nitrogen (-196 oC) which can maintain the genotype and phenotype of germplasm. The experiment aimed to obtain the best preculture, loading, and dehydration for cryopreservation of papaya ‘Sukma’ in vitro shoots. For preculture, we planted shoots on MS media with 0.3 M and 0.4 M sucrose for 1, 2, and 3 days. In the loading treatment, we immersed shoots in loading solution (liquid MS+1.2M glycerol+0.4M sucrose) for 0, 10, 20, and 30 minutes. For dehydration, we immersed shoots in cryoprotectant (PVS2 and its modification) for 5, 10, and 15 minutes. Then, shoots were immersed in liquid nitrogen. The results showed thatshoots had the best survival rate while they had been precultured on MS medium with 0.3 M sucrose for 3 days. The best loading treatment time was 20–30 minutes. The best dehydration treatment was obtained by modification of PVS2 for 10 minutes. The shoots have not been able to recovery after cryopreservation, so it can be concluded that cryopreservation of in vitro papaya ‘Sukma’ shoots has not been successful.

<p>Pruatjan (Pimpinella pruatjan Molk.) is an Indonesian endangered medicinal plant, so that it is highly protected. Cryopreservation can be applied to this plant for long-term preservation. The aim of this research was to obtain a method of encapsulation-vitrification by optimizing each step in cryopreservation protocol i.e. preculture, loading, dehydration with and without freezing in liquid nitrogen. The best treatment of each step would be applied in the following step. On preculture experiment, in vitro shoots were planted on the Driver and Kuniyaki (DKW) basal media containing 0.3 M sucrose and incubated for 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days. After those incubation period, shoot tips were encapsulated with 2.5% Na-alginate and soaking for 15 minutes in 100 ppm CaCl2 solution before planting. On loading experiment, precultured explants were loaded in DKW basal solution containing 2 M glycerol and 0.4 M sucrose for 0, 30, 60, and 90 minutes. On dehydration experiment, preculturead and loaded explants were dehydrated with PVS2 solution PVS2 (DKW + 30% glycerol + 15% DMSO + 15% ethyleneglicol + 0.4 M sucrose) for 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes. The parts of them were freezed in liquid nitrogen (-196oC). The result showed that cryopreservation through encapsulation-vitrification technique could be applied on pruatjan. The best preculture treatment was 5 days incubation period. The best loading treatment was 30 minutes. The best dehydration treatment was 90 minutes. The successful level of this research was still low (10%) so that it needs optimization method.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p>Purwoceng (Pimpinella pruatjan Molk.) adalah tanaman obat langka asli Indonesia yang hampir punah sehingga harus dilindungi. Kriopreservasi dapat diterapkan pada tanaman ini untuk penyimpanan jangka panjang. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk memperoleh teknik enkapsulasi-vitrifikasi dengan melakukan optimasi dari tiap-tiap tahapan kriopreservasi yang meliputi perlakuan prakultur, loading, dehidrasi sebelum dan setelah pembekuan dalam nitrogen cair. Perlakuan yang terbaik kemudian diterapkan pada tahapan percobaan berikutnya. Pada perlakuan prakultur, tunas in vitro ditanam pada media Driver dan Kuniyaki (DKW) dengan penambahan sukrosa 0,3 M dengan masa inkubasi 1, 2, 3, 4, dan 5 hari. Setelah itu, pucuk yang berukuran 0,5 cm dienkapsulasi dengan Na-alginat 2,5% (yang mengandung media regenerasi) dalam larutan CaCl2 100 ppm selama 15 menit sebelum penanaman kembali. Pada percobaan loading, terlebih dahulu eksplan diprakultur kemudian direndam dalam larutan DKW + gliserol 2 M + sukrosa 0,4 M dengan durasi rendam selama 0, 30, 60, dan 90 menit. Pada percobaan dehidrasi, eksplan diprakultur dan loading terlebih dahulu, kemudian direndam dalam larutan krioprotektan PVS2 (DKW + gliserol 30% + DMSO 15% + etilen glikol 15% + sukrosa 0,4 M ) selama 0, 30, 60, 90, dan 120 menit. Eksplan tersebut sebagian dibekukan dalam nitrogen cair (-196oC) dan sebagian lainnya tidak dibekukan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kriopreservasi secara enkapsulasi-vitrifikasi berpeluang diterapkan pada tanaman purwoceng. Perlakuan prakultur terbaik adalah 5 hari. Perlakuan loading terbaik adalah 30 menit dan perlakuan dehidrasi terbaik 90 menit. Tingkat keberhasilan ini masih rendah (10%) sehingga diperlukan optimasi metode.</p>
