The main objective of the present study was to determine the highest regenerable Egyptian rice cultivars and the best source of carbohydrates. Three medium protocols had been used to determine the in vitro culture response of mature dehusked grains in five Egyption rice cultivars. Factorial experiment in CRD design with ten replications was used to analyze the data. The obtained results showed that in vitro traits were highly significantly affected by genotypes and the interaction between medium protocols and genotypes. Whereas, medium protocols had different effects on the in vitro traits. The results also indicated that the shoot formation (%) and number of shoots per callus traits were highly significantly affected by genotypes, medium protocols and the interaction between medium protocols and genotypes. In conclusion, the cultivars, Sakha 103 and Sakha 104 could be successfully utilized in breeding programs for biotic and abiotic stress tolerance at the cellular level, because of their high frequency of shoot formation on the medium protocol C.

Shoot Initiation

In vitro plant regeneration from callus induced from embryos of mature seeds of 4 Australian varieties of rice was studied. Observations of callus induction on MS and N6 media indicated that MS medium supplemented with 0.5–2 mg/L of 2,4-D is suitable for callus formation from the varieties tested. Comparison of shoot initiation on medium containing BAP, BAP + NAA, and TDZ + NAA indicated that these varieties prefer BAP + NAA or TDZ + NAA in the shoot initiation medium. Partial desiccation, resulting in up to 20% loss of fresh weight of callus, significantly increased the regeneration frequency of the 4 rice varieties tested. The varieties showed varied response to number of shoots produced per callus. Regenerated shoots were rooted on plant growth regulator free medium. The plants regenerated were phenotypically normal and fertile. Our study showed that callus derived from mature embryos of these rice varieties are amenable to multiple shoot formation, and could be used for genetic transformation studies.

AbstractWith the increase in human demands for energy, purpose-grown woody crops could be part of the global renewable energy solution, especially in geographical regions where plantation forestry is feasible and economically important. In addition, efficient utilization of woody feedstocks would engage in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, decreasing the challenge of food and energy security, and resolving the conflict between land use for food or biofuel production. This review compiles existing knowledge on biotechnological and genomics-aided improvements of biomass performance of purpose-grown poplar, willow, eucalyptus and pine species, and their relative hybrids, for efficient and sustainable bioenergy applications. This includes advancements in tree in vitro regeneration, and stable expression or modification of selected genes encoding desirable traits, which enhanced growth and yield, wood properties, site adaptability, and biotic and abiotic stress tolerance. Genetic modifications used to alter lignin/cellulose/hemicelluloses ratio and lignin composition, towards effective lignocellulosic feedstock conversion into cellulosic ethanol, are also examined. Biotech-trees still need to pass challengeable regulatory authorities’ processes, including biosafety and risk assessment analyses prior to their commercialization release. Hence, strategies developed to contain transgenes, or to mitigate potential transgene flow risks, are discussed.

Among the in vitro derived different explants such as cotyledonary leaf, hypocotyl, shoot tip and root of two local varieties, namely Singhnath and Kazla (BARI Begun-4) of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) cotyledonary leaf was found to be the best for multiple shoot regeneration. High frequency direct organo-genesis of shoots was achieved from cotyledonary leaf in MS supplemented with 1.0 mg/l BAP and 1.0 mg/l Kn. Anatomical studies using freezing microtome supported the formation of shoots through organogenesis. Proliferation and elongation of such shoots were obtained in hormone free MS. Moreover, the regenerated shoots produced healthy roots when they were cultured on MS without hormonal supplements. Following the formation of roots the in vitro raised plantlets were successfully established in soil. Viable seeds were obtained from the in vitro raised mature plants.Key words: Regeneration, Multiple shoot, EggplantDOI = 10.3329/ptcb.v16i1.1106Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 16(1): 53-61, 2006 (June)

Abstract In this study, several concentrations of benzyl amino purine (BAP) and coconut water (CW) were investigated along with the interaction between two factors to the growth of in vitro propagated fig shoots. The investigated factors consisted of BAP concentration: 0, 1, 3, 5 mg L−1 and coconut water concentration: 0, 100, 200, 300 ml L−1. A total of 16 treatment combinations with 6 replications resulting in 96 experimental units consisting of a single fig shoot explant per culture medium. The observed parameters including living explant rate, contamination rate, browning rate, day of first shoot emergence, shoot formation rate, explant height addition, number of leaves, callus formation rate, and number of roots were conducted every week from 1 to 8 weeks after proliferation (WAP). The result indicated that in 8 WAP, the living explant rate reached 23.95%. The combination of concentration 200 ml L−1 CW and 3 mg L−1 BAP + 200 ml L−1 CW-induced early emergence of new shoots at 7 days after proliferation (DAP). The highest shoot formation rate (100%) was observed at a concentration of 300 mL L−1CW. The highest explant height addition (7.10 cm) was observed at a concentration of 200 mL L−1 CW. The highest number of leaves (5.80) was observed at a concentration of 1 mg L−1 BAP + 200 mL L−1 CW. The highest callus formation rate (50%) was observed at a concentration of 100 ml L−1CW and 300 ml L−1 CW. The highest number of roots (17) was observed in the control.

The leaves of vegetative stolons of greenhouse grown Cryptanthus `Marian Oppenheimer' (wide leaf clone) were cultured in modified MS media to induce adventitious shoot formation via callus formation. The best callus induction medium was basal MS medium with 10 μM NAA, IBA and BA. Pure green (843), maroon (3), striped (2) and albino plantlets were obtained. Most of the albino plantlets were stunted, tightly clumped together and impossible to score. The medium which produced the highest average number of non-albino plantlets was basal MS medium with 0.3 μM NAA, IBA and BA All non-albino plantlets were rooted in MS medium with 5.4 μM NAA and transplanted ex vitro with a survival rate of 96.7%. The maroon plantlets became green two weeks after transplanting. Histological studies revealed that C. `Marian Oppenheimer' (wide leaf clone) has two tunicas (L1 and L2) and a corpus (L3). Callus on the leaf explant arose mainly from the L2 and L3. Apparently C. `Marian Oppenheimer' (wide leaf clone) is a GWG periclinal chimera.

AbstractThe use of artificial light sources such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) has become a prerequisite in tissue culture studies to obtain morphogenetic enhancements on in vitro plants. This technology is essential for developmental enhancements in the growing plant cultures due to its light quality and intensity greatly influencing the in vitro growing explants at a cellular level. The current study investigates the effects of different light-emitting diode (LED) spectra on the growth of apical buds of Ficus carica var. Black Jack. Ficus carica, commonly known as figs is rich in vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals capable of treating microbial infections and gastric, inflammatory, and cardiac disorders. Apical buds of Ficus carica var. Black Jack, presented morphogenetic changes when grown under six different LED spectra. The highest multiple shoots (1.80 per growing explant) and healthy growing cultures were observed under the blue + red LED spectrum. Wound-induced callus formation was observed on apical buds grown under green LED spectrum and discolouration of the growing shoots were observed on the cultures grown under far-red LED spectrum. Multiple shoots obtained from the blue + red LED treatment were rooted using 8 µM indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and the rooted plantlets were successfully acclimatised. Compared with the other monochromatic LEDs, blue + red proved to be significantly better for producing excellent plant morphogeny. It is apparent that blue and red LED is the most suitable spectra for the healthy development of plants. The findings have confirmed that the combination of blue + red LED can potentially be used for enhancing growth yields of medicinally and commercially important plants.

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera L.) Dunal] is an important medicinal plant and a major source of alkaloids and steroids (withanolids), which is regularly used in pharmaceutical industries. Various vegetative parts were studied for its mass propagation through tissue culture technique. Seeds were pretreated with GA3 (50 and 100 mgl-1) for 24 h and 80% germination was achieved. All the explants were taken from in-vitro germinated plant. Among the different explants tested, multiple shoot formation was achieved from shoot-tip and nodal explants in MS medium + 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 mgl-1 kinetin. Nodal explants were selected for mass propagation protocol because it formed maximum number of shoots (16.25 shoots per explant) on MS medium + 1mgl-1 kinetin after eight weeks of culture. Increase in concentration of kinetin was most effective for callus formation. For further multiplication these shoots were sub-cultured on MS +0.5 mgl-1 kinetin. Presence of IAA at 0.5 mgl-1 was most effective medium for rooting of in-vitro propagated shoots. However, hardening was not achieved for these propagated plants.

An efficient tissue culture system for plant regeneration, from mature cut branches, was established to maintain male sterile material in Brassica rapa L. The new-growth immature pods from the cut branches were used as explantsresults in callus initiation (37 calli from 25 explants) and shoot formation (17 shoots from 75 explants) than flower buds and branch stems. Auxin [2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 2 to 5 mg l-1] and cytokinin [6-benzylaminopurine (BA), 2 to 4 mg l-1] were essential in callus and shoot formation, respectively. Callus initiation and shoot regeneration capacities were genotype dependent. The regenerated plants were male sterile and were used in breeding programs.;

The success of gerbera clonal propagation in vitro, using either capitulum explants or subcultured shoots in trials with up to 28 cvs, depended both on the cv. and on the cytokinin level in the medium. With capitulum explants, shoot formation was very low for some cvs regardless of the level of BA (5, 10 or 20 mg/l) whereas other cvs had individual optimum BA levels. Axillary branching of subcultured shoots differed between cvs and between levels of kinetin (1, 5 or 10 mg/l) in the medium. The optimum level for the highest quality shoots (highest leaf weight/shoot, no leaf malformation and no callus formation) was not always the same as the level producing the highest number of axillary shoots. Results are tabulated for each cv. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)
