In the present study it was reported on direct somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration from cotyledon and leaf explants of Turkey berry/pea egg plant (Solanum torvum SW), a medicinally important plant. Somatic embryogenesis has several advantages over other routes of in vitro plant regeneration. Somatic embryogenesis was induced directly from cotyledon and leaf explants on MS medium fortified with BAP (0.5 mg/L)+NAA (0.5-6.0 mg/L). High percentage of somatic embryogenesis (90%), maximum number of somatic embryos formation (62±0.18)  along with high percentage (76%) conversion of somatic embryos into bipolar embryos was observed on cotyledon explants in 0.5 mg/L BAP+2.5 mg/L NAA. At the same concentration of BAP (0.5 mg/L)+NAA (2.5 mg/L) also resulted  on the maximum percentage of somatic embryogenesis (92%), the highest number of somatic embryos formation (88±0.15) and the highest percentage (76%) of somatic embryos conversion into bipolar embryos in leaf explants. A mixture of globular, heart and torpedo-shaped embryos were germinated on MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L IAA+1.0-4.0 mg/L BAP. Maximum germination frequency (75±0.14) of somatic embryos and plantlet formation was found in 0.5 mg/L IAA+2.0 mg/L BAP, but they didn’t germinate on ½ MSO and MSO media. The survival rate of regenerated plants after field transfer was recorded to be 75%. These regenerated plants were found morphologically similar to donor plants. The present protocol can be used for conservation of the species and also for genetic transformation experiments in S. torvum.

Homalomena `Emerald Gem' is an important ornamental foliage plant and widely used for interior plantscaping. Current propagation of this cultivar has been primarily carried out through in vitro culture by organogenesis; regeneration through somatic embryogenesis has not been documented. This report describes successful plant regeneration via direct somatic embryogenesis from explants of different organs. Somatic embryos formed at and around the cut surface of petiole, spathe, and peduncle explants. Embryos also appeared at the base between expanded ovaries of the spadix segment, and around midrib of leaf explants. The optimal treatments for somatic embryo occurrence from petiole, spathe, and peduncle explants were MS medium containing 0.2 mg/L NAA or 0.5 mg/L 2, 4-D with 2.0 mg/L CPPU, and for spadix explants were MS medium with 0.5 mg/L PAA and 2.5 mg/L TDZ. Somatic embryos appeared 6 to 8 weeks after culture and formed large embryo clumps in 3 to 4 months. Somatic embryos produced more secondary embryos and geminated on induction medium. Multiple shoot development and plant regeneration occurred from somatic embryo clusters on MS medium without hormone or with 2 mg/L BA and 0.2 mg/L NAA. The regenerated plants grew vigorously after transplanting to a soilless container substrate in a shaded greenhouse.

Regeneration Frequency

Somatic embryogenesis was initiated from in vitro-grown leaf explants of rose using an induction period of 4 weeks on MS basal medium supplemented with auxin followed by several subcultures on MS basal medium with cytokinin. `4th of July' showed the highest regeneration frequency (24.4%) on 5.3 μm NAA followed by culture on medium containing 18.2 μm zeatin. `Tournament of Roses' produced somatic embryos when cultured for 4 weeks on medium containing dicamba, 2.3 μm followed by three subcultures on medium containing 18.2 μm zeatin. Embryogenic callus matured on MS media containing 0.5 μm NAA, 6.8 μm zeatin, and 2.9 μm GA3. Long-term cultures were established for both cultivars. Somatic embryos germinated on MS medium containing IBA and BA. Silver nitrate (58.8 μm) enhanced shoot formation and germination of somatic embryos. Plants derived from somatic embryos were acclimatized and successfully established in the greenhouse.

The objective of this study was to establish cell suspension culture and plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis of a Brazilian plantain, cultivar Terra Maranhão, AAB. Immature male flowers were used as explant source for generating highly embryogenic cultures 45 days after inoculation, which were used for establishment of cell suspension culture and multiplication of secondary somatic embryos. Five semisolid culture media were tested for differentiation, maturation, somatic embryos germination and for plant regeneration. An average of 558 plants per one milliliter of 5% SCV (settled cell volume) were regenerated in the MS medium, with 11.4 µM indolacetic acid and 2.2 µM 6-benzylaminopurine. Regenerated plants showed a normal development, and no visible somaclonal variation was observed in vitro. It is possible to regenerate plants from cell suspensions of plantain banana cultivar Terra using MS medium supplemented with 11.4 µM of IAA and 2.2 µM of BAP.

From one week through 7 weeks after artificial pollination, immature ovules of yooza(Citrus junos Sieb. et Tanaka) were excised and cultured in vitro on MT media. Even though there was only a little difference in percentage of somatic embryo formation depending upon the time of excision, immature ovules of 4-week-old showed the highest ratio of somatic embryo formation without callus outgrowth. Various growth regulators or other stimulators were added to the MT media to increase the somatic embryogenesis, In general, BAP was more effective than 2,4-D for somatic embryo formation and the combinations of 0.01mg/l 2,4-D and 0,01 or 0.1mg/l BAP were particularly effective in stimulating somatic embryo formation. When 500mg/l malt extract was added to the medium, the percentage of somatic embryo formation increased reaching as high as 86.7%. Plant regeneration from somatic embryos reached to 66.7% on the medium containing 1.0mg/l zeatin. Isozyme banding patterns were also analyzed to confirm the variations of characteristics of the plantlets derived from direct somatic embryos.

In vitro seedling offspring of Plantago camtschatica Link was investigated regarding induction of somatic embryogenesis in petiole/leaf explants from shoot tissue and shoot proliferation. The aim of study was to investigate the medium supplemented with suitable concentration of plant growth regulators in order to induce somatic embryogenesis, plant regeneration and shoot multiplication. The results showed that: (i) Petiole/young leaf of immature stem induced the highest ratio of calli induction and compact calli formation on MS medium supplemented with 1 mgL-1 2,4-D and 0.5 mgL-1 BA; (ii) From created calli, somatic embryogenesis could be induced on MS medium supplemented with 1 mgL-1 TDZ or 1 mgL-1 TDZ and 0.5 mgL-1 NAA; (iii) MS medium supplemented with 5-7 mgL-1 BA shown the most effective on shoot development stage; (iv) Rooting of shoot was the best on 1/2 solid MS medium with activated charcoal (2 gL-1), and 0.5-4 mgL-1 NAA; and (v) acclimatization of micropropagated plants could be planted in plastic pots containing a mixture of decayed straw : rice husk ashes, (1:1, v/v), sand : soil (1:1, v/v) or soil, showed a high survival rate and most seedlings grew normally.

Seedling Explants

An efficient procedure has been developed for inducing direct somatic embryogenesis, organogenesis, and regeneration of plants from tissue cultures of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.). Thin transverse sections of the cotyledons and juvenile leaves were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with N6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) or a substituted phenylurea, thidiazuron (TDZ). Somatic embryos or shoot buds differentiated from cut surfaces of the cotyledons and midrib region of the leaves. The application of BAP induced differentiation of shoot buds whereas the treatment with TDZ resulted in the production of somatic embryos. Somatic embryos developed into plants after subculturing on a basal meduim. Agar-solidified medium was found to be superior to the liquid medium for the development of embryos and shoot buds. The procedure of TDZ-induced somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration was successfully applied to three genotypes of peanut. A distinct feature of this study is the induction of the morphogenic competence in cultures of seedling expiants of peanut that so far have remained recalcitrant to somatic embryogenesis in vitro. Key words: peanut, Arachis hypogaea, shoot regeneration, somatic embryogenesis, thidiazuron, plant regeneration.

Hybrid Embryo

Somatic embryos were induced directly on immature embryos of Carica papaya × Carica cauliflora hybrids cultured on modified Murashige and Skoog's medium. When transferred to medium supplemented with abscisic acid, individual somatic embryos proliferated numerous daughter embryos through repeated embryogenesis. Light microscopic study of the repeatedly embryogenic cultures showed that daughter embryos arose from single superficial cells of parent embryos. Plant regeneration occurred following transfer of somatic embryos to medium devoid of plant growth regulators. Regenerated plants were intermediate between C. papaya and C. cauliflora in several morphological respects and showed isozyme patterns specific to both species as well as some new bands, indicating that they are indeed interspecific hybrids. Key words: Carica, interspecific hybrid, embryo culture, somatic embryogenesis.

Somatic embryo formation was observed on thin-sectioned leaf explants within 3 weeks of culture from two Phalaenopsis hybrids—Phalaenopsis Hwafeng Redjewell `Ching Ruey' Phalaenopsis Chingruey's Giant Ching Ruey' (R×R), and Phalaenopsis Formosa Best Girl Ching Ruey' Depts. Lih Jiang Beauty `S 566' (WR×WR). Frequency of somatic embryo formation was higher in hybrid WRxWR than R×R and optimal concentration of TDZ for the induction of somatic embryos was 9.08 μM. In (WR×WR) embryo proliferation was simultaneously observed after transferring the explants with somatic embryo clumps onto PGR-free half-strength MS medium. Six months after initiation, the culture plantlets were produced. This is the first report on somatic embryogenesis induced directly from the leaf explants using TDZ in Phalaenopsis.

Black Carrot

A study was carried out to investigate plant regeneration from hypocotyls of black carrot (Daucus carota spp. sativus), an industrially and medicinally important plant via somatic embryogenesis, and the genetic stability of obtained plantlets with the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter primer binding sites (iPBS) methods. Hypocotyl explants isolated from in vitro germinated seeds were incubated initially at Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 0.5 mg/L or 1 mg/L 2,4-D for 2 weeks and then at hormone-free MS medium in order to obtain somatic embryos, which were observed after 15 days on the explants. Performed molecular analyses showed that all bands obtained from plantlets through micropropagation were monomorphic. This protocol where black carrot was determined to be clonally reproduced through somatic embryogenesis may lead the way for further research regarding germplasm conservation and breeding studies.

Somatic embryo is a developmental method for mass multiplication of valuable medicinal plants. In this study, leaf explants of Ngoc Linh ginseng were disinfected with nano silver at different concentrations and exposure times to eliminate infectious agents and induce embryogenic callus for the production of somatic embryos. The results show that the lowest contamination rate (20.00%) was observed when leaf explants were treated with 0.5 g/L nano silver for 15 minutes while the highest embryogenic callus induction rate (72.22%) and fresh weight (0.77 g) was determined at 0.2 g/L nano silver for 20 minutes. High frequency of somatic embryogenesis formation and germination were occurred on MS medium supplemented 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D; 0.5 mg/L NAA; 0.2 mg/L Kin and 1.6 mg/L nanosilver. After 8 weeks of culture, the number somatic embryos derived from nano silver treated-leaves was increased 2 times than non-treated explants. Addition of 1.0 mg/L NAA and 1.2 mg/L nano silver was showed the highest shoot and root length, root number, fresh and dry weight of plantlets. This research showed that pre-treatment and supplement of nano silver in culture medium is potentially useful for improving embryogenesis frequency, and plantlet formation of Ngoc Linh ginseng cultured in vitro.
