Poincianella pyramidalis (Tul.) L.P. Queiroz, is an arboreal species endemic to Brazil’s Caatinga biome and an important source of lumber and also of medicinal substances. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the osmotic agents sucrose, sorbitol and mannitol and the growth retardant paclobutrazol (PBZ) on the induction of slow growth in vitro of P. pyramidalis, seeking to establish alternative techniques for ex situ conservation of the species. In the first experiment, plantlets with seven days of age were inoculated on Woody Plant Medium (WPM) supplemented with four concentrations of sucrose (87.64, 131.46, 175.28 or 219.10 mM) combined with 0.0 or 87.64 mM sorbitol or mannitol. In the second experiment, these plantlets were inoculated on WPM medium with 0.0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 or 6.0 µM PBZ and supplemented with 87.64 mM sucrose. For both experiments, the survival percentage of the plants was evaluated every 60 days, and at the end of 240 days, the following parameters were recorded: number of green leaves and senescent leaves; length of the aerial part and longest root; and dry mass of the aerial part and roots. The best results to maintain the quality of the P. pyramidalis plants conserved in vitro were obtained on medium supplemented with 219.10 mM sucrose for up to 240 days without subculture. With respect to PBZ, the concentration of 6.0 μM can be recommended for in vitro conservation of P. pyramidalis for 240 days without the need of subculturing.

This study investigated the effects of different types and concentrations of plant growth regulators on the in vitro multiplication of C. pyramidalis.In the first experiment, nodal segments were inoculated in media containing different combinations (0.0-8.0 µM) of BAP and NAA. In the second experiment, nodal segments were inoculated in media containing different types (KIN, BAP and TDZ) and concentrations (0.0-16μM) of cytokinins. We used a WPM medium supplemented with 87.64 mM sucrose and solidified with 7.0 g L -1 agar. After 45 days, the highest number of shoots, leaf number, shoot length and dry mass of shoots were obtained when nodal segments were inoculated into a culture medium without plant growth regulators. Additional key words: in vitro culture, organogenesis, plant growth regulators.
In vitro multiplication of Tapirira guianensis Aubl. (Anacardiaceae)Tapirira guianensis is of great medicinal, ecological and socio-economical importance occurring throughout the Brazilian territory. The objective of this study was to establish and determine the best conditions for the in vitro multiplication of T. guianensis. The explants nodal, cotyledonary and epicotyl segments from seedlings germinated in vitro were tested in diverse concentrations of 6-benzilaminopurine (BAP) and/or napthaleneacetic acid (NAA) in medium WPM. The following parameters were evaluated: the percentage of responsive explants, the number of shoots and buds, and the length of shoots and shoot dry mass at 30 and 60 days after inoculation. The cotyledonary segment, under these conditions, is the most suitable explant for the multiplication, with no induction of adventitious buds in epicotyl. The treatment with 1.0 mg L -1 BAP in the absence of NAA is the most responsive to the T. guianensis regeneration.Key words: medicinal woody, in vitro propagation, regeneration, direct organogenesis. Tapirira guianensis possui grande relevância medicinal, ecológica e socioeconômica, ocorrendo em todo o territó-rio brasileiro. O objetivo deste estudo foi estabelecer e determinar as melhores condições para a sua multiplicação in vitro. Os explantes, segmentos nodais, cotiledonares e epicótilos, oriundos de plântulas germinadas in vitro, foram testados em concentrações de 6-benzilaminopurina (BAP) e, ou, ácido naftalenoacético (ANA), em meio de cultura WPM. As características avaliadas foram a percentagem de explantes responsivos, o número de brotos e de gemas, o comprimento dos brotos e a matéria seca da parte aérea, aos 30 e 60 dias após inoculação. Foi observado que o segmento cotiledonar, nas condições deste estudo, foi o explante mais indicado para a multiplicação, não havendo indução de brotos adventícios nos epicótilos. O tratamento com 1,0 mg L -1 de BAP na ausência de ANA é o mais responsivo para a regeneração de T. guianensis.Palavras-chave: lenhosa medicinal, propagação in vitro, regeneração, organogênese direta.
Erythrina velutina is native from the Caatinga domain, which has been heavily affected by the exploitation of natural resources. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the induction of buds from nodal segments of in vitro germinated plants, aiming at the conservation of E. velutina. In the experiment I, intact seeds and zygotic embryos were inoculated in WPM culture and the number of buds, leaves and roots, germination percentage, shoot length and percentage of normal plants were analyzed. In the experiment II, the nodal segments of plants from germination of zygotic embryos in vitro were inoculated in WPM culture supplemented with BAP and CIN [0.0, 10.0, 20.0, 30.0 and 40.0 µM] and percentage of responsive explants to form buds, number of shoots and leaves, shoot length and the percentage of callus formation were analyzed. The cultivation of zygotic embryos provided more vigorous and uniform plants, with more gems than those obtained from the germination of intact seeds. The concentration of 20 µM of BAP is indicated for the regeneration of plants from zygotic embryos of E. velutina; with this concentration, an average of 2.78 shoots/explant was obtained.
Myracrodruon urundeuva Fr. All. is a tree threatened with extinction, which has wood and medicinal potential. This study aimed to analyze the in vitro shoot regeneration in M. urundeuva, in order to increase the species multiplication. Two experiments were conducted: 1) concentrations of 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) (0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 8.0 and 16.0 µM), in association with naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) (0.0, 1.5 and 3.0 µM), in explants (cotyledon, hypocotyl and cotyledonary node); 2) concentrations of meta-topolin (mT) (0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 8.0, 16.0 and 32.0 µM) in explants (biaxillary, medial uniaxillary and apical basal nodal segment). The percentage of explants responsive to shoot regeneration, percentage of callus explants, number of shoots and shoot length were evaluated. In the first experiment, the shoot regeneration occurred only in explants of the cotyledonary node and hypocotyl type, with the highest responsiveness percentage (76.67 %) and number of shoots (1.97 and 1.63) obtained for the cotyledonary node in the presence of 3.0 µM of NAA in association with 2.0 (1.97 shoots/explant) and 4.0 µM (1.63 shoots/explant) of mT. In the second experiment, the resolution of the obtained quadratic equation indicates that the use of basal explant with 24.59 µM of mT added to the culture medium leads to the highest number of shoots (1.86). However, despite the mT having increased the mean number of shoots, all treatments containing this cytokinin showed callus formation. As a conclusion, it is possible to regenerate shoots in M. urundeuva from the cotyledonary node using BAP in association with NAA.
Myracrodruon urundeuva Fr. All. é uma árvore que pertence à família Anacardiaceae, conhecida popularmente como aroeira-do-sertão; possui potencial para utilização madeireira e medicinal, entretanto está ameaçada de extinção. Este trabalho objetivou estudar a calogênese da aroeira-do-sertão, bem como analisar bioquimicamente os calos produzidos, visando estudos posteriores em embriogênese somática. Explantes foliares foram inoculados em meio de cultura MS (MURASHIGE; SKOOG, 1962) suplementado com diferentes concentrações (0,0; 2,5; 5,0; 10,0 e 20,0 μM) de 2,4-D (2,4-diclorofenoxiacético), (0,0; 2,5 e 5,0 μM) CIN (cinetina) e (0,0; 0,34; 0,68 e 1,37 μM) glutamina. Para a curva de crescimento, pesou-se a massa fresca dos explantes com e sem calos até o 56º dia de cultivo, em intervalos de 7 dias. Foram determinados os açúcares redutores (AR), a sacarose e os açúcares solúveis totais (AST) em cada período da curva de crescimento. A utilização de 2,4-D é eficiente para a indução de calos em Myracrodruon urundeuva e a calogênese é potencializada com a combinação de 2,4-D, CIN e glutamina no meio nutritivo. A curva de crescimento dos calos de Myracrodruon urundeuva apresenta forma sigmoidal com cinco fases: lag, exponencial, linear, desaceleração e estacionária. O conteúdo de sacarose e AST apresentou comportamento distinto de acordo com as diferentes fases de crescimento dos calos, exibindo acúmulo de açúcares no período de preparação para o crescimento, degradação na fase exponencial e nova fase de acumulação nos estágios finais (desaceleração e estacionária). O conteúdo de AR, excetuando o dia “zero”, se manteve estável durante todos os períodos avaliados. Os calos de Myracrodruon urundeuva possuem potencial embriogênico, no entanto sugerem-se novos estudos para obtenção de embriões somáticos, bem como identificação do período em que os mesmos serão formados.
