Regulation of mycorrhizal symbiosis: development of a structured nutritional dual model

A structured nutritional model is proposed to describe growth and nutritional behavior of Eschscholtzia californica suspension cells and Catharanthus roseus and Daucus carota hairy roots in in vitro culture. The model describes the cells specific growth rate from concentration of intracellular nutrients such as inorganic phosphate (Pi), nitrogen sources (NO(3) (-) and NH(4) (+)) and sugars. Two-level Michaelis-Menten kinetics are used to describe Pi and NO(3) (-) uptake and simple Michaelis-Menten kinetics for description of sugars uptake. Model parameters for each cell line were calibrated using data from batch cultures. The predictive capacity of the model was tested using data from medium exchange hairy root cultures. The model describes growth and nutritional behavior for the cell and hairy root lines. A sensitivity analysis was performed to identify critical model parameters and effect of initial conditions. The cell and hairy roots lines are also compared from their kinetic parameters. The kinetic model is efficient for describing and predicting growth and nutritional behaviors of suspension cells and hairy roots.

In this study, we investigated the influence of initial internal nutrient concentrations at the time of elicitation on the ability of Eschscholzia californica (EC) cells to produce alkaloids. Three EC cell suspensions cultivated in culture media differing in their PO4(3-) and NO3- contents were sampled daily for 12 days and analyzed for extracellular and intracellular nutrient concentrations. The ability of the cells to produce alkaloids was tested along the three cell suspension cultures. Sampled cells were then further cultured for 7 days in a production medium containing the elicitor and an extraction resin. The alkaloid production of the cells was measured 7 days post-elicitation. In the low-N medium, starch, glucose, and phosphate contents in the biomass was increased by 470, 1624 and 70%, respectively, 10 days after inoculation compared to the control culture in standard B5 medium. Cell concentration was significantly reduced from 10.3 to 8.6 millions cell/mL on this low-N medium compared to the control, nevertheless alkaloid production was multiplied by 39 at day 10 when cells were elicited. Cells grown on the low-N or low-P media accumulated 83% and 188% more carbon, respectively, than control cells at the end of the culture. This intracellular C was mainly stored in the form of starch in low-P medium and both in the form of starch and glucose in the low-N medium. The ability of EC cells to produce alkaloids upon elicitation was shown to be strongly dependent on the initial intracellular C and P content at the time of elicitation. This suggests that reproducibility and productivity during EC cell culture could be enhanced by manipulating the intracellular C and P content at the time of elicitation.

Plant cell and tissue cultivations are of growing interest for the production of structurally complex and expensive plant-derived products, especially in pharmaceutical production. Problems with up-scaling, low yields, and high-priced process conditions result in an increased demand for models to provide comprehension, simulation, and optimization of production processes. In the last 25 years, many models have evolved in plant biotechnology; the majority of them are specialized models for a few selected products or nutritional conditions. In this article we review, delineate, and discuss the concepts and characteristics of the most commonly used models. Therefore, the authors focus on models for plant suspension and submerged hairy root cultures. The article includes a short overview of modeling and mathematics and integrated parameters, as well as the application scope for each model. The review is meant to help researchers better understand and utilize the numerous models published for plant cultures, and to select the most suitable model for their purposes.
