    Notes: Summary Differences in fertility restoration and mitochondrial nucleic acids permitted division of 25 accessions of S-type male sterile cytoplasm (cms-S) of maize into five subgroups: B/D, CA, LBN, ME, and S(USDA). S cytoplasm itself (USDA cytoplasm) was surprisingly not representative of cms-S, since only two other accessions, TC and I, matched its mitochondrial DNA pattern. CA was the predominant subgroup, containing 18 of the 25 accessions. The B/D and ME subgroups were the most fertile and LBN the most sterile. The exceptional sterility of LBN cytoplasm makes it the most promising of the 25 cms-S accessions for the production of hybrid seed. The most efficient means of quantifying the fertility of the subgroups was analysis of pollen morphology in plants having cms-S cytoplasm and simultaneously being heterozygous for nuclear restorer-of-fertility (Rf) genes. This method took advantage of the gametophytic nature of cms-S restoration. The inbred NY821LERf was found to contain at least two restorer genes for cms-S. Fertility differences were correlated with mitochondrial nucleic acid variation in the LBN, ME, and S (USDA) subgroups.

    Notes: Summary An atrazine-resistant, male-fertile Brassica napus plant was synthesized by fusion of protoplasts from the diploid species B. oleracea and B. campestris. Leaf protoplasts from B. oleracea var. italica carrying the Ogura male-sterile cytoplasm derived from Raphanus sativus were fused with etiolated hypocotyl protoplasts of atrazine-resistant B. campestris. The selection procedure was based on the inability of B. campestris protoplasts to regenerate in the media used, and the reduction of light-induced growth of B. oleracea tissue by atrazine. A somatic hybrid plant that differed in morphology from both B. oleracea and B. campestris was regenerated on medium containing 50 μM atrazine. Its chromosome number was 36–38, approximately that of B. napus. Furthermore, nuclear ribosomal DNA from this hybrid was a mixture of both parental rDNAs. Southern blot analyses of chloroplast DNA and an assay involving tetrazolium blue indicated that the hybrid contained atrazine-resistant B. campestris chloroplasts. The hybrid's mitochondrial genome was recombinant, containing fragments unique to each parent, as well as novel fragments carrying putative crossover points. Although the plant was female-sterile, it was successfully used to pollinate B. napus.

    Notes: Summary We compared Brassica campestris mitochondrial and chloroplast DNAs from whole plants and from a 2-year-old cell culture. No differences were observed in the chloroplast DNAs (cpDNAs), whereas the culture mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was extensively altered. Hybridization analysis revealed that the alterations are due entirely to rearrangement. At least two inversions and one large duplication are found in the culture mtDNA. The duplication element is shown to have the usual properties of a plant mtDNA high frequency “recombination repeat”. The culture mtDNA exists as a complex heterogeneous population of rearranged and unrearranged molecules. Some of the culture-associated rearranged molecules are present in low levels in native plant tissue and appear to have sorted out and amplified in the culture. Other mtDNA rearrangements may have occurred de novo. In addition to alterations of the main mitochondrial genome, an 11.3 kb linear mtDNA plasmid present in whole plants is absent from the culture. Contrary to findings in cultured cells of other plants, small circular mtDNA molecules were not detected in the B. campestris cell culture.

    Notes: Summary Fusion of leaf protoplasts from an inbred line of Brassica oleracea ssp. botrytis (cauliflower, n=9) carrying the Ogura (R1) male sterile cytoplasm with hypocotyl protoplasts of B. campestris ssp. oleifera (cv “Candle”, n=10) carrying an atrazine-resistant (ATR) cytoplasm resulted in the production of synthetic B. napus (n=19). Thirty-four somatic hybrids were produced; they were characterized for morphology, phosphoglucose isomerase isoenzymes, ribosomal DNA hybridization patterns, chromosome numbers, and organelle composition. All somatic hybrids carried atrazine-resistant chloroplasts derived from B. campestris. The mitochondrial genomes in 19 hybrids were examined by restriction endonuclease and Southern blot analyses. Twelve of the 19 hybrids contained mitochondria showing novel DNA restriction patterns; of these 12 hybrids, 5 were male sterile and 7 were male fertile. The remaining hybrids contained mitochondrial DNA that was identical to that of the ATR parent and all were male fertile.

    Fertile revertants from S-type male-sterile maize grown in vitro (1987)

    Notes: Summary Plants were regenerated from callus cultures of maize inbred W182BN with the S(USDA) type of cytoplasmic male sterility (cms). Some regenerates from 16 of 18 separate cultures had fertile tassels. Many other regenerates, whose fertility could not be scored accurately because of abnormal plant morphology, produced fertile progeny after pollination with N cytoplasm W182BN. Revertant plants and/or progeny were obtained from all 18 cultures, which included the CA, D, LBN, and S sources of cmsS. More revertants were recovered from cultures maintained as callus for 12 months than from 3–4 month old cultures. Several types of evidence (absence of segregation for fertility after selfing or pollination of revertants with standard W182BN, pollen viability counts, failure of revertants to restore sterile cmsS lines to fertility, mitochondrial DNA analyses) indicated that the reversion to fertility involved cytoplasmic rather than nuclear alterations. All revertants examined lacked the S1 and S2 plasmid-like DNAs characteristic of the mitochondrial genome of sterile cmsS lines. Most callus cultures lost S1 and S2 after 13–20 months in vitro. No revertants were seen among thousands of W182BN cmsS plants grown from seed in the field or among plants from tissue cultures of W182BN with the C or T types of cms. The cytoplasmic revertants recovered from culture may be useful for the molecular analysis of cmsS.

    A comparison of cytoplasmic revertants to fertility from different CMS-S maize sources (1988)

    Notes: Summary The mitochondrial genome organizations of a number of independent culture-derived fertile CMS-S revertants with the nuclear genotype W182BN were compared to spontaneous field revertants with the genotypes WF9, M825/Oh07 and 38-11. Regions of the genome around sequences homologous to the terminal repeats of the linear S1 and S2 episomes characteristic of CMS-S mitochondria were used as hybridization probes on Southern blots of BamHI and SalI digested mitochondrial DNA. The results obtained suggest that the nuclear, not the cytoplasmic, genotype of the parent plant affects the type of novel mitochondrial DNA organization found in the revertant. The DNA reorganization during reversion from CMS-S in tissue culture appears to be similar to that observed in spontaneous revertants obtained during the normal plant life-cycle. Unlike the situation for reversion from CMS-T, no common DNA sequence or reading frame appeared to be lost or disrupted in revertants.

    Transfer of resistance to Xanthomonas campestris pv campestris into Brassica oleracea L. by protoplast fusion (1995)

    Notes: Abstract Black rot caused by the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv campestris is one of the most serious diseases of Brassica oleracea. Since sources of resistance to the disease within B. oleracea are insufficient and control means are limited, the development of resistant breeding lines is extremely desirable. Certain lines of B. napus contain very high resistance controlled by a dominant gene, but crossing the two species sexually is very difficult. Therefore, somatic hybrids were produced by protoplast fusion between rapid cycling B. oleracea and a B. napus line highly resistant to X. campestris pv campestris. Hybrid identity was confirmed by morphological studies, flow cytometric estimation of nuclear DNA content, and analysis of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Inoculations with the pathogen identified four somatic hybrids with high resistance. The resistant hybrid plants were fertile and set seed when selfed or crossed reciprocally to the bridge line ‘15’ (Quazi 1988). Direct crosses to B. oleracea were unsuccessful, but embryo rescue facilitated the production of a first-backcross generation. The BC1 plants were resistant to the pathogen. Progeny from the crosses to ‘line 15’ were all susceptible. Embryo rescue techniques were not obligatory for the development of a second-backcross generation, and several resistant BC2 plants were obtained.
