    Notes: Two hexaploid somatic hybrids [Sh; L. esculentum (+) L. Peruvianum] accessions 6 and 18 were back-crossed with two diploid L. Esculentum cultivars ‘Moneymaker’ (mm) and ‘pusa Ruby’ (pr). Twenty-two plants of the bc2 generation were produced by backcrossing 7 bcl plants (mm x sh, 6, 18) with five tomato cultivars. Fourteen of the bc2 plants were self-fertile, five produced anther cones with anthocyanin pigmentation not present in the parents. A bc3 generation was developed by crossing the four cultivars as female parent with three bc2 generation plants. The bc3 progeny derived from one pollen parent plant were produced without the need to culture immature seeds. They segregated with respect to pigmented anther cones and were self-fertile. The anther cone pigmentation of the pollen parent plant was associated with increased seed set, greater fruit size and an orange-red fruit colour. These features were transmitted to the fertile bc3 generation. Conversely, bc3 offspring involving the other two parent plants were only recovered by culture of immature seeds. The recovery of diploid plants in BCl and self-fertility in BC2 resulted in almost total recovery of the tomato cultivar characteristics (fruit size, colour and number of seeds) by BC3.

    Notes: Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was applied to eight commercial cultivars of pineapple, two intergroup hybrids and two wild species. Morphologically, pineapple is divided into the Cayenne, Queen, Spanish, Maipure and Abacaxi groups. Members of the first three groups have been analysed in this study. The cultivars ‘Tradsithong’, ‘Phuket’, ‘Sawee’ and ‘Tainan’, with spiny leaves, form the Queen group. In ‘Pattavia’, ‘Nanglae’ and ‘Petburi no. 2’ (Cayenne group), spines are confined to the leaf tips. ‘Intrachitdang’ is normally placed in the Spanish group, which is morphologically similar to the Queen group, but with inferior quality fruit. DNA amplification products were compared from 16 arbitrary 10-mer primers from which a dendrogram was constructed. The results confirmed morphological classifications for seven of the eight commercial cultivars, with the Queen and Cayenne groups as separate clusters. However, the cv. ‘Intrachitdang’ was more closely related to the Cayenne group. Two hybrids from reciprocal Cayenne × Queen group crosses, were more closely allied to the Queen group. The two wild species were outside the groups. RAPD analysis can be exploited to investigate relationships within pineapple germplasm.

    Notes: Knowledge of the genetic relationships among landraces is useful to gene bank managers because it permits a better organization of the crop's gene pool management, more efficient sampling of the available germplasm resources and better access to useful genetic variation for breeders. Genetic diversity of 19 landraces of the cultivated mung bean, Vigna radiate, and three weedy and wild relatives including Vigna mungo, Vigna luteola and Vigna radiate var. sublobata, was investigated at the DNA level with the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) procedure. Sixty random decamer primers were employed in amplification reactions; 28 of these were informative and yielded 246 bands, of which 229 were polymorphic with a mean of 8.2 bands per primer. A genetic distance matrix based on Nei and Li coefficient was converted to a dendrogram and a two-dimensional plot using multidimensional scaling (MDS). The accessions studied were separated into three main clusters, which included V. radiate landraces, V. mungo and V. luteola, respectively. The variation of this cluster supports the view that the genetic distance of V. mungo and V. luteola varies considerably from the accession VO2955 (V. radiata). The multidimensional scaling plot confirmed that V. mungo, V. luteola and most of the accessions of V. radiata formed distinct clusters with no overlap, and two mung bean accessions (PI177493 and VO4134–1 from Turkey and India, respectively) were genetically distant from other V. radiata landraces. V. radiata and V. mungo are positioned in separate botanical species and V. radiata var. sublobata is classified within other V. radiata landraces. Based on the limited range of accessions tested, the approach holds promise for the classification of mung bean germplasm, identification of mung bean landraces and applications of molecular markers to mung bean breeding.

    Notes: [Auszug] The use of molecular and somatic genetics in plant breeding should facilitate the selection and enhancement of the production of plants with desirable characteristics. However, such techniques are still very much at the experimental stage and several major drawbacks must be overcome before they can ...

    Notes: [Auszug] One half of our selection procedure was based on a difference in growth between leaf protoplasts of Petunia hybrida and P. parodii. Protoplasts of P. parodii12 never grow beyond the small colony stage (about 50 cells) in a medium similar to that of Murashige and Skoog13 (M/S medium) while ...

    Notes: Abstract Viable protoplasts of Vigna sublobata L. were isolated enzymatically from hypocotyls of axenic seedlings. Protoplast yields were dependent upon seedling age, with maximum yields (2.25 ± 0.35 × 106 g fwt−1) from seedlings aged 6 d. Protoplasts regenerated cell walls and underwent sustained divisions when cultured in either agarose-solidified or liquid K8P medium. The plating density affected the division frequency and plating efficiency; the division frequency (68 ±0 6.0%) was maximum at 4.0 × 104 ml−1 while plating efficiency was maximum (1.3 ± 0.1%) at 5.0 × 104 ml−1. Dividing protoplasts developed into microcalli, which produced glossy green compact nodular calli on transfer to 8.0 gl−1 w/v agar-solidified medium containing MS salts, B5 organic components, 30 g l−1 sucrose, NAA (0.2–0.5 mg l−1), zeatin riboside (0.5–2.0 mg l−1) and GA3 (0.5–1.0 mg l−1). These calli, after sub-culture on the same medium, produced shoot buds which underwent elongation following transfer of tissues to 6.0 g l−1 agar-solidified B5 medium containing 30g l−1 sucrose, IBA (0.01 mg l−1) and BAP (1.0 mg l−1). Elongated shoots developed roots after transfer to 8.0g l−1 agar-solidified, hormone-free MS medium with 30 g l−1 sucrose.

    Notes: Summary The effects have been studied of the non-ionic surfactants, Plutonic F-68, Tween 20 or Triton X-100, on shoot regeneration from cultured jute (Corchorus capsularis L.) cotyledons with attached petioles. This group of non-ionic surfactants was selected in order to determine a possible relationship between the physico-chemical properties of individual compounds and their observable effects on plant morphogenesis in cultured jute cotyledons. Supplementation of culture medium with 0.001–0.5% (w/v) Pluronic F-68 increased the mean percentage of cotyledons producing shoots and the mean number of shoots/cotyledon, with maximal responses at 0.5% (w/v). By contrast, Tween 20 produced maximal effects at 0.001% (v/v), with inhibition of shoot formation at 0.5% (v/v). In both cases, phenotypically normal plants were recovered which could be grown to maturity. Culture of cotyledons with 0.001% (v/v) Triton X-100 similarly increased both the percentage of cotyledons producing shoots and the number of shoots/cotyledon. However, these shoots did not develop into mature plants. Additionally, shoots did not regenerate from cotyledons cultured with Triton at 0.01–0.5% (v/v). These results demonstrate mat there is an apparent relationship between the hydrophilic-hydrophobic (HLB) balance of surfactants which determine their cell permeabilising properties and consequently, their effects on morphogenesis.

    Notes: Summary Cell suspension-derived protoplasts of albino Petunia hybrida were grown for 10 d at the interface between aqueous culture medium (KM8P) and an oxygenated (10 mbar for 15 min) perfluorocarbon liquid, perfluorodecalin. Protoplasts synthesised new cell walls and divided normally at the perfluorodecalin/culture medium interface, with a mean viability after 10 d of 〉 92.0%. The mean plating efficiency of protoplasts was elevated by 37% (P〈0.05) following culture at the perfluorodecalin/medium interface, but was unaltered by perfluorodecalin or oxygen separately. The mean plating efficiency of protoplasts cultured at the interface was further increased to a maximium of 52% above control, in the presence of oxygenated perfluorodecalin and KM8P medium supplemented with the non-ionic, co-polymer surfactant, Pluronic F-68 at 0.01% (w/v). These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of oxygenated perfluorodecalin for promoting protoplast growth, by facilitating oxygen delivery. The finding that Pluronic F-68 further increased the plating efficiency of protoplasts cultured at the perfluorocarbon/aqueous interface suggests that these agents improve growth through separate, but cumulative, mechanisms.
