Somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration from zygotic embryo explants of onion

Abstract: The study was undertaken to examine the effect of two synthetic auxins on somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration from mature embryo explants of 16 onion cultivars. Cotyledons were removed from the embryos and remaining portions were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 5.0 mg/L picloram alone or in combination (1.0 mg/L 2,4-D + 2.5 mg/L picloram) to produce embryogenic callus. MS medium supplemented with 5.0 mg/L picloram was found to be the best one for both embryogenic callus indu… Show more

“…Embryogenic callus induction in onion has been achieved by using auxins alone in the culture media such as 2,4-D and/or picloram (van der Valk et al 1992;Saker 1997;Eady et al 1998;Zheng et al 1998;Khar et al 2005;Ramakrishnan et al 2013;Sivanesan et al 2015). In our experiment, the callus induction e ciency was low when auxin alone was used either 2,4-D or picloram and it varied from 4 to 22.67% and 24 to 57.33% in shoot tip and seedling radicle explants, respectively.…”

“…Bhima super via indirect organogenesis An e cient regeneration protocol, DNA delivery system and a selection system are required for successful genetic transformation of any plant species. Previously reported regeneration protocols for Allium cepa showed the dependence of callus induction on cultivars, explants and media compositions (van der Valk et al 1992;Eady 1995;Saker 1997;Eady et al 1998;Zheng et al 1998;Khar et al 2005;Ramakrishnan et al 2013;Sivanesan et al 2015). In this study, we standardized the regeneration protocol for an Indian cultivar, Bhima super, which is one of the commercially important varieties of onion.…”

“…Direct plant regeneration is a valuable approach to reduce the culture duration and to minimize the somaclonal variation extensively (Burner and Grisham 1995;Satish et al 2015). The efficient and reproducible in vitro plant regeneration is a first step for successful biotechnological application in crop improvement to achieve the requirement of food in the shortest period (Parmar et al 2012;Sivanesan et al 2015;Aydin et al 2016). However, the effective utilization of plant tissue culture relies on the interaction between culture media, explants, plant species and environmental growth conditions (Chutipaijit and Sutjaritvorakul 2018).…”
