    Notes: Sexual and somatic Brassica napus hybrids produced from the same parental plants were compared. Sexual crosses between a white-flowered, self-compatible broccoli selection (B. oleracea var. italica, cc genome) as the maternal parent and a flowering pak choi accession (B. chinensis, aa genome) yielded one unique spontaneous hybrid and four hybrids through embryo rescue. Thirty-nine somatic hybrids were recovered from a protoplast fusion experiment. Hybridity was confirmed by morphology, isozyme expression, flow cytometry, and DNA hybridization. Sexual and somatic hybrids exhibited differences in leaf morphology, flower colour, flowering habit, and organellar inheritance. Sexual hybrids were all fertile amphidiploids (2n = 38, aacc) following spontaneous chromosome doubling. All somatic hybrids had high nuclear DNA contents; most were probably hexaploids (aaaacc or aacccc) from the fusion of three portoplasts. Two initially sterile hexaploid (aaaacc) regenerates eventually set selfed seed after the loss of the putative extra aa genome following regrowth from axillary buds. A bias toward inheritance of B. chinensis chloroplasts was observed with somatic hybrids.

    Notes: Protoplast fusion permits manipulations of organelle genomes not readily achieved by other in vitro procedures or sexual crosses. Although considerable information is now available about the fate of chloroplasts and mitochondria in fusion products of various genera, many additional questions about factors affecting organelles after fusion remain to be answered. Brassica species are particularly favorable materials for such studies. Organelle assortment, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) recombination, and plant phenotypes observed after fusion of protoplasts from cytoplasmic male sterile B. oleracea with protoplasts from B. campestris, B. oleracea or B. napus are described. The somatic hybrids and cybrids obtained at Cornell have been used for detailed studies of recombinant mtDNA, including correlation of a specific mtDNA region with the ogura type of cytoplasmic male sterility, and have provided plant materials for possible use in hybrid breeding programs.

    Notes: Abstract Eastern gamagrass, (Tripsacum dactyloides L.) is a perennial, warm-season grass that is being developed as a forage plant. Shoots were derived from callus initiated from immature embryos and immature inflorescences of diploid (2n=2x=36) gynomonoecious eastern gamagrass. These shoots were induced to microtiller in the presence of 3 mg/l benzyladenine. Amiprophosmethyl (10, 15, or 20 μm) was applied to 27 microtillers for 3–5 days to induce chromosome doubling. All 14 surviving plants were tetraploid, (2n=4x=72), as determined by flow cytometry or chromosome counts. These plants were morphologically normal and produced seed. Test crosses were made with a known diploid. Flow cytometry and chromosome counts showed that the progeny were triploid, proving that the induced tetraploids reproduce sexually.

    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: 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.

    In vitro selection for methomyl resistance in CMS-T maize (1989)

    Notes: Summary Many plants resistant to methomyl (Lannate), an insecticide which selectively damages maize with the Texas (T) type of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS-T), were obtained by in vitro selection and also without selection. The selection procedure used 0.6–0.7mM methomyl and callus from CMS-T versions of several field and sweet corn genotypes (W182BN, Wf9, P39, MDM1, SW1 and hybrids of SW1, IL766A1, IL766A2, and 442 with W182BN-N). Addition of 1 mM methomyl to the regeneration medium greatly reduced recovery of methomyl-sensitive escapes. Resistance was linked with reversion to male fertility and maternally inherited. Most progeny of resistant plants exhibited stable maternally inherited resistance for two generations in field tests. First-generation progeny of seven culture-derived plants segregated for resistance and sensitivity; this suggests that ears of these seven regenerants were cytoplasmically chimeral. Resistance to methomyl was associated with resistance to T toxin from Helminthosporium maydis race T and with changes in mitochondrial physiology. Prolonged culture (14–16 months versus 6–8 months) increased the frequency of resistance among both selected and non-selected regenerants. Little or no resistance was found among regenerants from certain genotypes. Selection with methomyl may be useful for production of improved sweet corn lines and as a source of mitochondrial mutants. This system is also convenient for studies of the effects of nuclear background and of culture and selection systems on the generation of cytoplasmic mutants.

    Insect-resistant plants with improved horticultural traits from interspecific potato hybrids grown in vitro (1990)

    Notes: Summary Plants were regenerated from petiole calli of interspecific hybrids of Solanum tuberosum x S. berthaultii, an insect-resistant wild species. Callus culture was used to generate genetic changes to overcome the restricted recombination between the two genomes. Two plants out of 58 (3.5%) from calli of hybrid J114-1 showed stable and heritable differences from the hybrid over two cycles of evaluations in the field. Replicated trials were conducted in 1987 and 1988, using two populations of plants propagated by nodal cuttings from the original regenerates maintained in vitro. One regenerate showed insect resistance and increased marketable yield (approximately two fold) in the field. The other had higher levels of phenolic exudate in one of the two types of foliar trichomes associated with the insect resistance mechanism. Some desirable changes were discernible only in sexual progeny of regenerates, not in the regenerates themselves. In a backcross to S. tuberosum, 7 of 14 (50%) regenerates from hybrid F743-4 showed more progeny (up to 15-fold) with improved trichome traits and horticultural characteristics than the original hybrid. The variations were not associated with changes in ploidy. Fifteen plants obtained from these crosses are currently being incorporated into breeding lines. These results suggest that a period of callus culture followed by plant regeneration may aid in the introgression of desirable traits from wild species into crop plants.

    Notes: Summary Protoplast fusion was used to combine the cytoplasmic traits of atrazine resistance and male sterility in Brassica oleracea var. italica (broccoli). Leaf protoplasts from broccoli with the petaloid B. nigra type of cytoplasmic male sterility were fused with hypocotyl protoplasts from an atrazine-resistant biotype of B. campestris var. oleifera cv Candle (oilseed rape). A total of 19 colonies regenerated shoots, all of which were broccolilike in phenotype, i.e., lacked trichomes. Four shoots, all from one colony, were atrazine resistant, surviving and growing in the presence of 25 μM atrazine. A leaf piece assay also confirmed that they were atrazine resistant. Molecular analysis showed that they contain chloroplasts from the atrazine-resistant B. campestris parent and mitochondria from the B. nigra parent. No recombination or rearrangement of the mitochondrial genomes in the fusion products was detected. These four plants and their progeny all showed the petaloid B. nigra type of male sterility.

    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: Summary The host-selective phytotoxin victorin, produced by the fungusCochliobolus victoriae, was found to be at least partially peptidic in nature, and did not contain victoxinine. The exact mass of the M-H ion was measured by FABMS as 795.1877. Derivatives of three major acid hydrolysis products were isolated. The structures of the corresponding amino acids were assigned as 2S,3R-3-hydroxyleucine, 5,5-dichloroleucine, and 3-hydroxylysine. A into victorin by the fungus in vivo.
