    Notes: Abstract Cotyledon expiants from immature embryos of five watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.)Matsum. & Nakai] genotypes were incubated in the dark for three weeks on a modified MS medium containing B5 vitamins, 2,4-D (10, 20 or 40μM), 0.5 μM of either BA or TDZ, and 7 g·1-1 TC agar. Somatic embryos, some with well developed cotyledons, were observed on cotyledon expiants three to four weeks after transfer to MS medium without PGRs and 16h photoperiod. The best PGR combination for somatic embryogenesis was 10 μM 2,4-D and 0.5 μM TDZ Somatic embryogenesis was greatest (30%) when cotyledon expiants were established from 18-day-old immature embryos. Somatic embryos were germinated on MS medium without PGRs. Plants were transferred to Magenta boxes containing ProMix for three weeks before being transplanted to the field where they formed fertile male and female flowers that produced normal fruit.

    Notes: Abstract Shoot-tip explants from 21-day-old aseptically-germinated watermelon seedlings were incubated on solidified MS medium containing test concentrations of benzyladenine (BA) and kinetin (each at 0, 1, 5 or 10 µM), and thidiazuron (TDZ; 0, 0.1, 1 or 5 µM) for 8 weeks. Approximately 1.5x–2.8x more axillary shoots formed at the optimum BA level (1 µM) compared to the best TDZ (0.1 µM) or kinetin (10 µM) concentration. The ability of various diploid and tetraploid genotypes to undergo prolonged axillary shoot proliferation on medium with 1 µM BA was examined. Among the genotypes tested, the number of axillary shoots per explant was greater for ‘Bush Jubilee’ and ‘Jubilee II’ than for ‘Minilee’, ‘Dixielee’, and the tetraploid genotypes. For a majority of the genotypes tested, the number of shoots per explant was low (2.7–4.0) during the first month of culture, peaked (5.3–12.5) at 2 to 3 months, and then declined (3.7–7.7) at 6 months. In contrast, the number of shoots per explant was greatest (11.7) for ‘Bush Jubilee’ during the first month of culture and declined to 7.7 by the sixth subculture. The percentage of rooted shoots varied from 60% to 100% and the percentage of acclimatized plants ranged from 21% to 96% depending on the genotype and the length of time in culture. Using this procedure, 13,200 finished plants could be produced in 3 months from 250 seedlings.

    Notes: Abstract Ploidy of watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. and Nakai shoots and plantlets was estimated by painting the lower epidermis of intact in vitro-derived leaves with fluorescein diacetate (FDA) and observing fluorescence of guard cell chloroplasts with a microscope and UV light. Leaves from in vitro shoot-tip cultures of known diploid cultivars and tetraploid breeding lines were used to establish the mean number of chloroplasts per guard cell pair. Leaves from diploid and tetraploid shoot cultures had 9.7 and 17.8 chloroplasts per guard cell pair, respectively. This method then was used to estimate the ploidy of shoots regenerated from cotyledon explants of the diploid cultivar Minilee. Approximately 11% of the 188 regenerated shoots were classified as tetraploid during in vitro culture. Putative tetraploids were transplanted to the field and self-pollinated. About 45% of tetraploids identified in vitro produced fruit and viable seed. Chloroplast counts of R1 progeny were used to confirm their ploidy. All of the putative diploids were confirmed diploid and all putative tetraploids proved to be non-chimeric true breeding tetraploids.

    Notes: Abstract The influence of light incubation during embryo germination on shoot organogenesis from cotyledons of four diploid watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thumb.) Matsum. & Nakai cultivars was examined. Germinating embryos in darkness significantly improved the number of explants that produced harvestable shoots during the 6 week incubation period on shoot regeneration medium under a 16-h photoperiod. The percentage of explants with shoots more than doubled for `Crimson Sweet' and was about 1.5-fold greater for `Sweet Gem' and `Yellow Doll' when embryos were germinated in darkness. The percentage of explants with shoots was not significantly improved for `Minilee' by pretreating seedlings in darkness. This study demonstrates that optimal shoot regeneration can be obtained by germinating embryos in darkness before preparing cotyledon explants.

    Notes: Abstract Statistical analyses are an essential part of biological research. Statistical methods are available to biological researchers that range from very simple to extremely complex. Therefore, caution should be used when selecting a statistical method. When possible it is best to avoid complicated statistical procedures that are difficult to interpret and may hinder the researcher's ability to make treatment comparisons. Instead a method should be chosen that compliments a logical and practical treatment design. Statistics should be used as a tool to compare treatments of interest and should not dictate the treatments. Experimental designs should take into account the eventual analysis, otherwise one could conceive of a design that could not be analyzed or, when analyzed, would not answer the desired questions. Therefore, time should be spent before conducting an experiment to plan an experimental design and analysis that best compliments the treatment scheme and questions to be answered. The purpose of this paper is to present examples of experimental designs, means separation procedures, data transformations and presentation methods suitable for plant cell and tissue culture data.

    Notes: Summary Adventitious shoots were obtained from the diploid watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai] cultivars Dixielee, Jubilee II, Mickylee, Minilee, and Royal Sweet by culturing excised cotyledons on shoot regeneration medium for six weeks. Tetraploid and diploid regenerants were identified by counting the number of chloroplasts per guard cell pair from leaves of regenerated plants. Cross fertilization of putative tetraploids with diploid pollinators and the production of triploid seed confirmed the efficacy of this approach. The mean number of chloroplasts for tetraploid regenerants was 19.1 whereas diploids averaged 11.2. These values were similar to tetraploid and diploid plants from seed. Ovary diameter, petal, and anther diameter of male flowers, and leaf length by width ratio were also good indicators of plant ploidy. Progeny obtained from self-fertile tetraploids of ‘Mickylee’ were crossed with various diploid pollinators to produce triploid hybrid seed. All triploid plants from tissue culture-derived tetraploids produced fruit comparable in quality to fruit produced by currently-available triploid hybrids, demonstrating that in vitro tetraploid induction can be used to produce high quality tetraploid plants for use in triploid hybrid seed production.
