    Notes: Abstract Fertile rooted plantlets were recovered from leaf mesophyll protoplasts of Capsella bursa-pastoris. Protoplasts cultured over a feeder layer of Brassica napus cells produced 221 colonies, 7 of which regenerated multiple plantlets. The nuclear DNA content of most regenerates varied from 0.89 to 1.0 pg/nucleus, close to the value for seed-grown C. bursa-pastoris (0.94±0.03 pg/nucleus). Two regenerants had a tetraploid DNA content (1.8– 2.0 pg). Plants with a DNA content close to Capsella produced seeds, both in vitro and in soil. Intertribal somatic hybrids were obtained by polyethylene glycol-mediated fusion of untreated C. bursa-pastoris protoplasts with iodoacetate-treated protoplasts of rapid-cycling B. oleracea. Plants were confirmed as somatic hybrids by isozyme and RAPD analysis. The nuclear DNA content of the hybrids ranged from 3.2 to 6.4 pg, higher than the sum of the parental genomes. One of two hybrids tested was resistant to Alternaria brassicicola, like the Capsella fusion partner. Hybrids rooted easily and produced sterile flowers when transplanted to soil.

    Notes: Abstract   Camelina sativa, a wild relative of Brassica crops, is virtually immune to blackspot disease caused by Alternaria brassicicola. Intertribal somatic hybrids were produced between C. sativa and rapid-cycling Brassica oleracea as a step toward the transfer of resistance to this disease into Brassica vegetable crops. The plants recovered were confirmed as somatic hybrids by flow cytometry and RAPD analysis. All hybrids showed a morphology intermediate between the two parents. Rooted plants grew in soil up to 4–5 weeks, and some produced sterile flowers. Two of three hybrids tested showed a high level of resistance to  A. brassicicola. Resistance was correlated with the induction of high levels of the phytoalexin camalexin 48 h after inoculation, as in the resistant Camelina fusion partner. In contrast, susceptible somatic hybrids produced much lower levels of camalexin.

    Notes: Abstract Novel Brassica napus somatic hybrids have been created through protoplast fusion of B. oleracea var. botrytis and B. rapa var. oleifera genotypes selected for high erucic acid (22:1) content in the seed oil. Fifty amphidiploids (aacc) and one putative hexaploid (aacccc) hybrid were recovered in one fusion experiment. Conversely, only one amphidiploid and numerous regenerates with higher DNA contents were produced in a similar fusion using a different B. rapa partner. Hybridity was confirmed by morphology, isozyme expression, flow cytometry, and DNA hybridization. Analysis of organellar DNA revealed a distinct bias toward the inheritance of chloroplasts from the B. rapa (aa) genome. All amphidiploids set self-pollinated seed. A erucic acid content as high as 57.4% was found in the seed oil of one regenerated plant. Fatty acid composition was stable in the R1 generation and was coupled with increased female fertility. Other novel agronomic characters in the hybrids recovered include large seed size, lodging resistance, and non-shattering seed pods.

    Notes: Abstract  Somatic Hybrids between Sinapis alba and rapid-cycling Brassica oleracea were generated for transferring of resistance to Alternaria brassicae to B. oleracea. A. brassicae causes the significant disease black spot in cruciferous crops. A total of 27 plants were regenerated from protoplast fusion using 0, 5, 10, 20 and 30 krad γ-irradiation of the resistance donor and iodoacetate treatment of B. oleracea. All plants showed intermediate morphology with partially divided leaves and some trichomes on stems and leaves. Flow cytometry and banding patterns of the enzymes leucine amino peptidase (LAP) and phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) confirmed the hybrid status of the regenerated plants. Some of the plants obtained from cuttings from the somatic hybrids showed a resistance to A. brassicae that was similar to that found in S. alba. The flowers of the somatic hybrids had reduced anthers with little pollen production.
