Explants Sterile pieces of a whole plant from
- Slides: 66
Explants Sterile pieces of a whole plant from which cultures are generally initiated • Aerial plant parts are “cleaner” than underground parts • The smaller the explant the better the chances to overcome specific phytopathological problems (virus, microplasm, bacteria), but it decreases the survival rate • Inner tissues are less contaminated than outer ones • Comparable explants do not always react in a similar way , due to: influence of location on the mother plant, influence of juvenility status , influence of polarity
Types of explant Generally all plant cells can be used as an explant, however young and rapidly growing tissue (or tissue at an early stage of development) are preferred. Inoculum A subculture of plant material which is already in culture
Types of culture (Explant base) Embryo culture Cell culture (suspension culture) Callus culture Seed culture Plant tissue culture Bud culture Meristem culture Protoplast culture Organ culture
Types of In vitro culture (explant based) ü Culture of intact plants (seed and seedling culture) ü Embryo culture (immature embryo culture) ü Organ culture ü Callus culture ü Cell suspension culture ü Protoplast culture
Seed culture ü Growing seed aseptically in vitro on artificial media ü Increasing efficiency of germination of seeds that are difficult to germinate in vivo ü it is possible to independent on asymbiotic germination. Production of clean seedlings for explants or meristem culture
Embryo culture ü Growing embryo aseptically in vitro on artificial nutrient media ü Overcoming seed dormancy and self-sterility of seeds ü Study embryo development
Organ culture Any plant organ can serve as an explant to initiate cultures No. 1. 2. 3. 4. Organ Shoot Root Leaf Flower Culture types Shoot tip culture Root culture Leaf culture Anther/ovary culture
Shoot apical meristem culture ü Production of virus free germplasm ü Mass production of desirable genotypes ü Facilitation of exchange between locations (production of clean material) ü Cryopreservation (cold storage) or in vitro conservation of germplasm
Root organ culture 1. Production of seedling from crop which multiply through root 2. Production of secondary metabolite
Ovary or ovule culture ü Production of haploid plants ü A common explant for the initiation of somatic embryogenic cultures ü Overcoming abortion of embryos of wide hybrids at very early stages of development due to incompatibility barriers ü In vitro fertilization for the production of distant hybrids avoiding style and stigmatic incompatibility that inhibits pollen germination and pollen tube growth
Anther and microspore culture ü Production of haploid plants ü Production of homozygous diploid lines through chromosome doubling, thus reducing the time required to produce inbred lines ü Uncovering mutations or recessive phenotypes
Sterilization Killing or excluding microorganisms or their spores with heat, filters, chemicals or other sterilants Tissue culture is an aseptic technique Aseptic technique: - Sterile - Free of pathogenic microorganisms - Free or freed from pathogenic microorganisms - Free from the living germs of disease and fermentation - Conditions established to exclude contaminants
Axenic culture ü ü ü Germfree Uncontaminated Free from germs or pathogenic organisms Free from other microorganism Containing only 1 organism A culture of an organism that is entirely free from all other contaminating organisms ü Not contaminated by or associated with any other living organism ü Pure cultures that are completely free of the presence of other organisms
Sterilization 1. Micro-organism contamination can over grow the plant culture resulting in culture death 2. Micro-organism contamination exhaust the nutrient media 3. Micro-organism can change in secondary metabolite structure or produce other compounds.
Source of contamination ü The explant or culture ü The vessels ü The media ü The instruments ü The environment where handling is taking place
Aseptic Techniques üChemical treatments • disinfectants, • antibiotics, • sublimat üPhysical treatments • heating: the most important disinfection method • electromagnetic radiation, • filtration • ultrasonic waves.
Disinfectans üThey penetrate into bacteria, üThey will denature bacterial protein, üThey decrease the activity of bacterial enzyme, üThey inhibit bacterial growth and metabolism, üThey damage the structure of cell membrane, üThey change membrane permeability.
Disinfectans – Liquid laundry bleach (Na. OCl at 5 -6% by vol) • Rinse thoroughly after treatment • Usually diluted 5 -20% v/v in water; 10% is most common – Calcium hypochlorite – Ca(OCl)2 • a powder; must be mixed up fresh each time – Ethanol (Et. OH) • • 95% used for disinfesting plant tissues Kills by dehydration Usually used at short time intervals (10 sec – 1 min) 70% used to disinfest work surfaces, worker hands – Isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) is sometimes recommended
Antibiotics üUsed only when necessary or when disinfestants are ineffective or impractical üIts use by incorporating in the media üCommon antibiotics are carbenicillin, cefotaxime, rifampicin, tetracycline, streptomycin üProblems with antibiotics • • tend to be selective resistance acquisition may obscure presence of microbes cell/tissue growth inhibition
An ideal antibiotics ü ü Broad-spectrum Did not induce resistance Selective toxicity, low side effects Preserve normal microbial flora 20 BC Yang

Sublimat (0. 1 - 1%) üIts activity based on Cl- üHeavy metal (Hg) denaturates proteins. üHg is toxic for the environment, therefore recuperate the Hg-solution after use and collect in a large container. ü Hg can be precipitated by adding ammonia to the solution, and siphoning the supernatant
UV radiation n Ultraviolet is light with very high energy levels and a wavelength of 200 -400 nm. n One of the most effective wavelengths for disinfection is that of 254 nm. 24 BC Yang
Heating • Oven (dry heat) Suitable for tools, containers a 160°-180° C for 3 h • Microwaves (off the shelf) Useful for melting agar (but not gellan gum types of solidifying agents) Special pressurized containers are required for sterilizing in a microwave • Flaming or heating of tools Flaming – e. g. , 95% Et. OH in an alcohol burner is useful for sterilizing metal instruments Bacticinerators – heats metal tools in a hot ceramic core Heated glass beads
Heating • Autoclave Steam heat under pressure (It typically generates 15 lbs/in 2 and 250° F (1. 1 kg/cm 2 and 121° C)) It is faster and more effective For liquids (such as water, medium), autoclave time depends on liquid volume Recommended autoclaving times (sterilization time only): 250 ml requires 15 min 500 ml requires 20 min 1000 ml requires 25 min Excessive autoclaving can break down organics – a typical symptom is caramelized sucrose
Heating • Flaming or heating of tools Flaming – e. g. , 95% Et. OH in an alcohol burner is useful for sterilizing metal instruments Bacticinerators – heats metal tools in a hot ceramic core Heated glass beads
Filtration – Filtration of culture medium • Some medium ingredients are heat labile, e. g. , GA, IAA, all proteins, antibiotics • Most devices use a paper cellulose filter with small pore spaces (0. 22 µm) • Syringes used for small volumes, vacuum filtration for large volumes – Filtration of air • Transfer hoods usu. generate wind at 27 -30 linear m per min (or 90 -100 ft per min) • Too slow and air drops contaminants onto your work surface; too fast causes turbulence and excess filter wear • air "corridors" must be kept free of barriers to be effective

Callus Culture Callus: üAn un-organised mass of cells, produced when explants are cultured on the appropriate solid medium, with both an auxin and a cytokinin and correct conditions. üA tissue that develops in response to injury caused by physical or chemical means üMost cells of which are differentiated although may be and are often highly unorganized within the tissue
Callus formation 1. Meristems 2. Leaf sections 3. Bulb sections 4. Embryos 5. Anthers 6. Nucellus De-differentiation Explants Re-differentiation Callus Protoplasts Development Suspension cells Organs (leaves, roots, shoots, flowers, . . . )
Callus formation Stimuli : In vivo : wound, microorganisms, insect feeding In vitro : Phytohormones 1. Auxin 2. Cytokinin 3. Auxin and cytokinin 4. Complex natural extracts
Callus • During callus formation there is some degree of dedifferentiation both in morphology and metabolism, resulting in the lose the ability to photosynthesis. • Callus cultures may be compact or friable. üCompact callus shows densely aggregated cells üFriable callus shows loosely associated cells and the callus becomes soft and breaks apart easily. • Habituation: The lose of the requirement for auxin and/or cytokinin by the culture during long-term culture. •
Cell-suspension cultures ü When friable callus is placed into the appropriate liquid medium and agitated, single cells and/or small clumps of cells are released into the medium and continue to grow and divide, producing a cell-suspension culture. ü The inoculum used to initiate cell suspension culture should neither be too small to affect cells numbers nor too large too allow the build up of toxic products or stressed cells to lethal levels. ü When callus pieces are agitated in a liquid medium, they tend to break up.
Cell suspension culture ü Suspensions are much easier to bulk up than callus since there is no manual transfer or solid support ü Cell suspension culture techniques are very important for plant biotransformation and plant genetic engineering.
Protoplast culture The isolation and culture of plant protoplasts in vitro
Protoplast The living material of a plant or bacterial cell, including the protoplasm and plasma membrane after the cell wall has been removed.
Plant Regeneration Pathways Ø Existing Meristems (Microcutting) Uses meristematic cells to regenerate whole plant. Ø Organogenesis Relies on the production of organs either directly from an explant or callus structure Ø Somatic Embryogenesis Embryo-like structures which can develop into whole plants in a way that is similar to zygotic embryos are formed from somatic cells (Source: Victor. et al. , 2004)
Cell Differentiation The process by which cells become specialized in form and function. These cells undergo changes that organize them into tissues and organs. Morphogenesis As the dividing cells begin to take form, they are undergoing morphogenesis which means the “creation of form. ” Morphogenetic events lay out the development very early on in development as cell division, cell differentiation and morphogenesis overlap
Morphogenesis • These morphogenetic events “tell” the organism where the head and tail are, which is the front and back, and what is left and right. • As time progresses, later morphogenetic events will give instructions as to where certain appendages will be located.
Morphogenetic Events • Morphogenetic events, as well as cell division and differentiation, take place in all multicellular organisms. • In plants, morphogenesis and growth in overall size are not limited to embryonic and juvenile periods, they occur throughout the life of the plant. • For example, apical meristems of plants are responsible for a plant’s continued growth and development and the formation of new organs throughout the plant’s life. These are perpetually embryonic regions in the tips of shoots and roots.
Cloning • Using the somatic cells of a multicellular organism to generate a new organism is • Each clone is genetically identical to the parent plant.
Microcutting propagation The production of shoots from pre-existing meristems only.
Organogenesis • The ability of nonmeristematic plant tissues to form various organs de novo. • The formation of adventitious organs • The production of roots, shoots or leaves • These organs may arise out of pre-existing meristems or out of differentiated cells • This may involve a callus intermediate but often occurs without callus.
Indirect organogenesis Explant Callus Meristemoid Primordium
Direct Organogenesis Direct shoot/root formation from the explant
Somatic Embryogenesis • The formation of adventitious embryos • The production of embryos from somatic or “non-germ” cells. • It usually involves a callus intermediate stage which can result in variation among seedlings
Types of embryogenic cells • Pre-embryogenic determined cells, PEDCs – The cells are committed to embryonic development and need only to be released. Such cells are found in embryonic tissue. • Induced embryogenic determined cells, IEDCs – In majority of cases embryogenesis is through indirect method. – Specific growth regulator concentrations and/or cultural conditions are required for initiation of callus and then redetermination of these cells into the embryogenic pattern of development.
Various terms for non-zygotic embryos ü Adventious embryos Somatic embryos arising directly from other organs or embryos. ü Parthenogenetic embryos (apomixis) Somatic embryos are formed by the unfertilized egg. ü Androgenetic embryos Somatic embryos are formed by the male gametophyte.
Somatic Embryogenesis and Organogenesis • Both of these technologies can be used as methods of micropropagation. • It is not always desirable because they may not always result in populations of identical plants. • The most beneficial use of somatic embryogenesis and organogenesis is in the production of whole plants from a single cell (or a few cells).
Somatic embryogenesis differs from organogenesis • Bipolar structure with a closed radicular end rather than a monopolar structure. • The embryo arises from a single cell and has no vascular connection with the mother tissue.
Two routes to somatic embryogenesis (Sharp et al. , 1980) • Direct embryogenesis – Embryos initiate directly from explant in the absence of callus formation. • Indirect embryogenesis – Callus from explant takes place from which embryos are developed.
Direct somatic embryogenesis Direct embryo formation from an explant
Indirect Somatic Embryogenesis Explant → Callus Embryogenic → Maturation → Germination 1. Calus induction 2. Callus embryogenic development 3. Multiplication 4. Maturation 5. Germination
Induction • Auxins required for induction – Proembryogenic masses form – 2, 4 -D most used – NAA, dicamba also used
Development ü Auxin must be removed for embryo development ü Continued use of auxin inhibits embryogenesis ü Stages are similar to those of zygotic embryogenesis – – – Globular Heart Torpedo Cotyledonary Germination (conversion)
Maturation • Require complete maturation with apical meristem, radicle, and cotyledons • Often obtain repetitive embryony • Storage protein production necessary • Often require ABA for complete maturation • ABA often required for normal embryo morphology – Fasciation – Precocious germination
Germination • May only obtain 3 -5% germination • Sucrose (10%), mannitol (4%) may be required • Drying (desiccation) – ABA levels decrease – Woody plants – Final moisture content 10 -40% • Chilling – Decreases ABA levels – Woody plants
Somatic embryogenesis as a means of propagation is seldom used ü High probability of mutations ü The method is usually rather difficult. ü Losing regenerative capacity become greater with repeated subculture ü Induction of embryogenesis is very difficult with many plant species. ü A deep dormancy often occurs with somatic embryogenesis
Peanut somatic embryogenesis
Steps of Micropropagation • Stage 0 – Selection & preparation of the mother plant – sterilization of the plant tissue takes place • Stage I - Initiation of culture – explant placed into growth media • Stage II - Multiplication – explant transferred to shoot media; shoots can be constantly divided • Stage III - Rooting – explant transferred to root media • Stage IV - Transfer to soil – explant returned to soil; hardened off
