Micrografting and ex vitro grafting for somatic embryo rescue and plant recovery in avocado (Persea americana)

Abstract: The efficient recovery of plants from avocado somatic embryos has been difficult to achieve by manipulating maturation and conversion conditions in vitro. The production of morphologically normal, bipolar somatic embryos occurs at low frequency, usually <2%, and conversion is sporadic. In order to utilize the embryogenic system for improving avocado by genetic transformation and in vitro mutagenesis, different protocols for rescuing the shoots that develop from somatic embryos were evaluated. Shoots derived ei… Show more

“…Advantages of grafting shoots are discussed in more detail by Lane et al (2003). Once grafted, scion growth occurs after the union of cambium tissue between the scion and rootstock, or graft union, is established (Raharjo and Litz 2005). Acclimatization of the scion to greenhouse conditions is achieved as it emerges from the Parafilm covering (Lane et al 2003).…”

“…Paz & Pasqual (1998) afirmam que é comum, na microenxertia in vitro em citros, taxas de pegamento que variam de 2%, quando se utilizam ápices com 0,05 mm de comprimento, a 50%, quando se utilizam ápices com seis primórdios foliares. Raharjo & Litz (2005) testaram a microenxertia em abacateiro (Persea americana), em condição in vitro e ex vitro, e observaram que os resultados referentes ao pegamento foram próximos e que as brotações obtidas na microenxertia ex vitro apresentaram maior desenvolvimento do que as obtidas na microenxertia in vitro.…”

“…Besides, pistachio in vivo grown scions grafted onto in vitro seedlings failed (Can et al, 2006), while ex vitro grafting of shoots that have been produced in vitro, as here, is an uncommon technique used mainly to rescue transgenic rootless shoots, as in grapefruit or sunflower (Yang et al, 2000;Weber et al, 2003), or somatic embryos in avocado (Raharjo and Litz, 2005). Here, grafting in vitro growing shoot tips onto terebinth seedlings has resulted in a great advantage due, not only to a relatively high graft success, but to shorten time and facilitate pistachio propagation.…”
