“…This is a similar result to that of the exogenous application of 5-7.5 mM Spd in the TN-1 rice variety, which led to a low level of Put and a high number of plantlets per callus piece Rajam 1995, 1996). Polyamines play a key role in plant growth and development, especially in plant morphogenesis, as small trigger molecules for endogenous hormone regulation and amino acid supporters (Walden et al 1997;Bais and Ravishankar 2002;Geoffriau et al 2006). Plantlet regeneration from calli derived from anther or pollen culture using polyamine application has been investigated in plants such as citrus (2 mM Spd; 763 embryos; Chiancone et al 2006), Guizotia abyssinica (200 μM Spd; 57 embryos; Hema and Murthy 2008), and onion (0.1 mM Spd and 2 mM Put; six embryos in Valcatorce INTA cultivar and ten embryos in Torrentina cultivar; Martínez et al 2000).…”

Anther culture is a biotechnology technique that can be used for the production of pure lines. The aims of this investigation were to induce embryogenic callus from major and minor culms of Thai aromatic rice cultivars and to subsequently regenerate double-haploid green plantlets by the application of exogenous polyamines. Embryogenic callus derived from anther culture was successfully induced in varieties KDML105, Homjan (HJ), and Pathumthani 1 (PT1). Production of embryogenic callus from anthers collected from the major culms was greater than those collected from the minor culms, especially in cultivar HJ. Plantlet regeneration in the three rice cultivars was observed from embryogenic callus and was highest, at 12.1%, from variety HJ treated with 0.5 mM spermidine. Plantlet regeneration from anther-derived embryogenic callus was dependent on the plant genotype, the types of exogenous polyamines, and the interactions of these factors. The percentage of haploid plantlets regenerated in PT1, KDML105, and HJ were 68.1%, 70.7%, and 78.5%, respectively. Only haploid plantlets were treated with colchicine for double-haploid production. This investigation has increased the knowledge of both embryogenic callus induction and plantlet regeneration in aromatic rice and has lead to the development of a pure, double-haploid line for the use in rice breeding programs in Thailand.

Dynamics of biochemical and morphophysiological changes during zygotic embryogenesis in Acca sellowiana (Berg.) Burr.

Acca sellowiana (Berg.) Burr. is a native Myrtaceae from southern Brazil and Uruguay, now the subject of a domestication and breeding program. Biotechnological tools have been used to assist in this program. The establishment of a reliable protocol of somatic embryogenesis has been pursued, with a view to capturing and fixing genetic gains. The rationale behind this work relies on the fact that deepening comprehension of the general metabolism of zygotic embryogenesis may certainly improve the protocol for somatic embryogenesis. Thus, in the present work we studied the accumulation of protein, total sugars, starch, amino acids, polyamines (PAs), IAA and ABA, in different stages of A. sellowiana zygotic embryogenesis. Starch is the predominant storage compound during zygotic embryo development. Increased synthesis of amino acids in the cotyledonary stage, mainly of asparagine, was observed throughout development. Total free PAs showed increased synthesis, whereas total conjugated PAs were mainly observed in the early developmental stages. IAA decreased and ABA increased with the progression from early to late embryogenesis. Besides providing basic information on the morphophysiological and biochemical changes of zygotic embryogenesis, the results here obtained may provide adequate strategies towards the modulation of somatic embryogenesis in this species as well as in other woody angiosperms.

“…There are relatively fewer reports on the participation of polyamines in gametic embryogenesis (Forodi et al, 2009). An improvement in the efficiency of gynogenesis in onion has been achieved through the exogenous application of polyamines (Martinez et al, 2000;Geoffriau et al, 2006). The role of polyamines in androgenesis has been investigated by Tiainen (1992) in potatoes, Dewi et al (2004) and Dewi and Purwoko (2008) in rice, Kumar et al (2004) in cucumbers, Hema et al (2008) in niger (Guizotia abisinica L.), and Chiancone et al (2006) in clementines.…”

This study examines the influence of the polyamines putrescine and spermidine on the efficiency of androgenesis in anther cultures of 2 carrot cultivars, Kazan F 1 and Narbonne F 1 , and the effect of putrescine on the process of plant regeneration from androgenetic embryos. In the Kazan F 1 variety, an increase in the number of obtained embryos was achieved using each of the 2 polyamines separately and in combination. In contrast, no beneficial effects of polyamines on the efficiency of androgenesis were observed in the Narbonne F 1 variety. Putrescine added to the regeneration medium increased the number of obtained plants. For embryos obtained on induction medium without putrescine, the best concentration was 160 mg putrescine in 1 L of regeneration medium, and for those obtained on the induction medium with putrescine the best concentration was 0.5 mg putrescine per 1 L. All of the resulting plants, both in the experimental and control combinations, had a doubled set of chromosomes. The vast majority of them were homozygous for both isoenzymes, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase and aspartate aminotransferase, and the distribution of homo-and heterozygous received combinations with the polyamines and in the control was very similar.
