FIRST STAGES OF MICROSPORE REPROGRAMMING TO EMBRYOGENESIS THROUGH ISOLATED MICROSPORE CULTURE IN LOQUAT
2011
The current experiments were undertaken to develop a method for regenerating doubled haploid (DH) plants of Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.), Rosaceae, subfamily Maloideae through isolated microspore culture of nine loquat cultivars. Protocols were developed for isolation and culture of loquat microspores. Isolated microspores in vitro cultured started dividing and developing multicellular, globular and irregular structures. After 4 weeks of culture, the responding microspores produced yellowish/white callus. The embryogenic response of microspores was highly dependent on the cultivar and on the medium composition.
Blisters and calluses from rowing : prevalence, perceptions and pain tolerance
2022
Background and Objectives: Rowing is a sport that involves constant gripping, pulling/pushing, and rotational movements of the hands, in a cyclic periodic manner with every stroke, with hundreds of strokes being taken within a short period of time. Dermatological issues on rowers’ hands (fingers and palms) in the form of blisters and calluses are common knowledge within the community, but their prevalence and the rower’s perceptions and pain tolerance to them has never been systematically evaluated. This work addresses these lacunae. Materials and Methods: Analysis of data collected from a survey on a sample of competitive (117) and noncompetitive rowers (28) who row on-water (total 145). R…
In vitro anther culture of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) genotypes and of a C. clementina × C. sinensis 'Hamlin' hybrid
2014
Citrus, and particularly sweet oranges, are very recalcitrant to anther culture. In this paper it was evaluated for the first time the response of 27 genotypes of Citrus sinensis and of one hybrid C. clementina × C. sinensis, to in vitro anther culture. Ten genotypes of sweet oranges showed embryogenic callus induction, mostly blood sweet oranges genotypes, such as Tarocco, Moro and Sanguinelli. In vitro microspore developmental switches from the gamethophytic to the sporophytic pathway were shown by DAPI staining in microspores of these responsive genotypes, after 10 months in culture. However, microsatellite marker analyses showed that these calli were heterozygous. The flow-cytometric an…
Eresus kollari (Araneae: Eresidae) calls for heathland management
2011
Northwest Europe’s largest heather-dominated sandy habitats are located in the nature reserve Lu¨neburgerHeide, Germany. Yet, even these appear to be losing their ability to support some of their stenotopic species such as theladybird spider, Eresus kollari Rossi 1846, and are thus becoming increasingly important for the preservation of thesespecies. The habitat requirements of this endangered spider species were investigated in order to obtain data that will helpstabilize the last remnants of the species’ population in northwest Germany. Several heathland habitats were surveyed bypitfall trapping during the mate-search period of the males. Two statistical methods were applied: logistic reg…
In vitro culture of albedo tissue from fruits of Citrus sinensis cv. Washington Navel: Effect of fruit age and orange juice
1994
SUMMARYCallus from citrus fruit explants has been used to study different aspects of fruit physiology. However, growth responses of callus derived from citrus fruit tissues are not always comparable with those of intact fruit; there are, for example, differences in nutritional requirements. Results with tissues cultivated in vitro seem to depend on a variety of environmental and internal factors. In the present work albedo tissue from fruits of Citrus sinensis cv. Washington Navel of different age has been used as a source of explants. The growth (fresh weight) of the calli was dependent on the age of the fruit from which the explants were taken, as well as on the addition of orange juice t…
EFFECT OF PLANT GROWTH REGULATORS AND ORANGE JUICE ON GROWTH OF CALLUS FROM FRUIT TISSUES OF WASHINGTON NAVEL ORANGE
1997
The effect of the plant growth regulators kinetin, gibberellic acid (GA3), and 2,4- dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), either alone or in combination with orange juice, on the in vitro growth of mesocarp and endocarp explants from 90–120 day-old Washington Navel Citrus sinensis orange fruits has been determined. Both fruit tissues formed callus. From endocarp 100% callus was formed in all cultures, even without growth regulators in the culture medium, while callus growth was lower from mesocarp. The addition of orange juice at a final concentration of 15% (v/v) to the basal medium without growth regulators increased the callus growth, specially that derived from endocarp. However, the high…
Physiological and genomic variations in rice cells recovered from direct immersion and storage in liquid nitrogen
1999
The use of cryoprotectants and slow cooling rates are routine procedures for the cryopreservation of plant cell lines. However, our results with rice (Oryza sativa L., cv. Taipei 309) show that calli can be cryopreserved by direct immersion and stored in liquid nitrogen without any cryoprotection. The efficiency of recovery using this method, as well as a conventional method was generally increased with a previous abscisic acid (ABA) treatment. Following cryopreservation, calli demonstrated some differences with respect to unfrozen calli of the same lines. Thus, resistance to freezing stress (−20°C for 2 h) increased significantly in all lines tested, irrespective of their pre-incubation wi…
Anther and pollen grain culture of rice (Oryza sativa L.)
1981
Factors favouring callus proliferation and subsequent regeneration of plants from pollen grains of rice anthers (Oryza sativa L., cvx. Bahia, Girona, Balilla × Sollana and Sequial) were determined. Cultivar differences in response were found, such as a high rate of haploid plant regeneration.
Phenotypic characterization of the progenies of rice plants derived from cryopreserved calli
1999
The progenies of rice plants (Oryza sativa L.) differentiated from calli that had been cryopreserved and from control (non-cryopreserved) calli were used to study the influence of selection pressure during cryopreservation. The phenotypic evaluation of these progenies was based mainly on the response of seedlings and calli to freezing stress and on the characterization of protoplast and cell populations by flow cytometric analyses. The patterns of response to freezing stress, as well as the variations in some morphological and physiological cell parameters, were unrelated to the origin (cryopreserved or control calli) of the parental plants.
