In Vitro Regeneration Potential of Thin Cell Layer Explants of Lentisk (Pistacia lentiscus var. Chia) Plant

Abstract

The problems encountered in the production of the lentisk trees, which are one of the important endemic plants of our country have led to the use of biotechnological methods. In this research for this purpose, the TCL (Thin Cell Layer) technique was consideredto investigate of in vitro regeneration potential of expants used for production of lentisk. Firstly, the leaf, node and stem parts of the plant were cut by TCL technique and these explants had been cultured in semi-solid MS media supplemented with 2,4-D and KIN at different concentrations (0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/L). The highest callus formation percentage was 100% in transverse stem layers and longitudinal node in MS media including 1 mg/L 2,4-D and 1 mg/L KIN. The lowest callus regeneration ratios were found as 26.67% for three explant types (transverse leaf, transverse stem, longitudinal node). Due to the high rate of darkening in regenerated calli, these were transferred primarily to semi-solid media containing different antioxidants (ascorbic acid, citric acid, PVP, active charcole) and after that culturedin liquid media containing different plant growth regulators (IAA, KIN and BAP) to induced somatic embryogenesis. Later, the calli were encapsulated to prevent darkening and the nurse technique was applied with Aloe vera L. and Gossypium hirsutum L. calli as a different application. As a result of all these trials, somatic embryogenesis didn't occur, but darkening ratio was reduced to 6.67%.

“…Perbanyakan melalui teknik TCL lebih efektif karena eksplan yang berukuran tipis sehingga difusi nutrisi ke dalam jaringan eksplan lebih mudah (Agisimanto, 2015). Cetin et al, (2021) menyebutkan bahwa penggunaan teknik TCL lebih prospektif untuk perbanyakan klon. Meskipun demikian mikropropagasi tanaman menggunakan teknik TCL juga memiliki kelemahan seperti terjadinya browning yang mengakibatkan eksplan mengalami kematian.…”

An Overview: Effect of Plant Growth Regulatory on Orchid Propagation through The Thin Cell Layer technique

“…TCL consists of several cells that can form somatic embryos at a higher frequency than thick explants [8]. TCL technology is more prospective in clonal propagation [9]. Shoot proliferation was faster using the TCL technique [5].…”
