This document discusses various methods for selecting and developing cell lines for research. It covers primary culture isolation, subculture propagation to establish a cell line, control of cell proliferation through growth factors and intracellular regulators, senescence limits on cell divisions, differentiation inhibiting proliferation, and the need for continuous cell lines. Methods to immortalize cell lines include viral genes like SV40 LT and HPV E6/E7 to inactivate tumor suppressors, adenoviral and retroviral vectors, telomerase induction with hTERT, use of oncogenes, and cell hybridization. The goal is to generate stable, consistent cell lines that proliferate indefinitely while maintaining similar phenotype to the original tissue.
This presentation discusses strategies for developing transgenic plants without selectable marker genes. Marker genes are commonly used to identify transformed cells but can be problematic for public acceptance and future transformations. Methods described for producing marker-free transgenics include the MAT system which uses oncogenes for selection instead of antibiotics, site-specific recombination systems which flank the marker gene for later excision, and transposon-based systems which separate the gene of interest from the marker gene. While several viable methods exist, more work is still needed before marker-free crops can be commercialized. Removing marker genes supports multiple-gene stacking and improves public acceptance of transgenic technologies.

This document discusses distant hybridization and various techniques used to produce haploid plants. Distant hybridization refers to crosses between individuals of different plant species or genera. Such crosses can result in fully fertile, partially fertile, or fully sterile offspring depending on chromosomal homology. Androgenesis and gynogenesis are techniques used to induce haploid plants from male and female gametes, respectively. Androgenesis involves culturing immature anthers or isolated microspores while gynogenesis involves culturing unpollinated flower parts. Wide hybridization is also used to induce maternal haploids. Factors like genotype, developmental stage, and culture conditions influence haploid induction and regeneration.
A new era of genomics for plant science research has opened due the complete genome sequencing projects of Arabidopsis thaliana and rice. The sequence information available in public database has highlighted the need to develop genome scale reverse genetic strategies for functional analysis (Till et al., 2003). As most of the phenotypes are obscure, the forward genetics can hardly meet the demand of a high throughput and large-scale survey of gene functions. Targeting Induced Local Lesions in Genome TILLING is a general reverse genetic technique that combines chemical mutagenesis with PCR based screening to identity point mutations in regions of interest (McCallum et al., 2000). This strategy works with a mismatch-specific endonuclease to detect induced or natural DNA polymorphisms in genes of interest. A newly developed general reverse genetic strategy helps to locate an allelic series of induced point mutations in genes of interest. It allows the rapid and inexpensive detection of induced point mutations in populations of physically or chemically mutagenized individuals. To create an induced population with the use of physical/chemical mutagens is the first prerequisite for TILLING approach. Most of the plant species are compatible with this technique due to their self-fertilized nature and the seeds produced by these plants can be stored for long periods of time (Borevitz et al., 2003). The seeds are treated with mutagens and raised to harvest M1 plants, which are consequently, self-fertilized to raise the M2 population. DNA extracted from M2 plants is used in mutational screening (Colbert et al., 2001). To avoid mixing of the same mutation only one M2 plant from each M1 is used for DNA extraction (Till et al., 2007). The M3 seeds produce by selfing the M2 progeny can be well preserved for long term storage. Ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) has been extensively used as a chemical mutagen in TILLING studies in plants to generate mutant populations, although other mutagens can be effective. EMS produces transitional mutations (G/C, A/T) by alkylating G residues which pairs with T instead of the conservative base pairing with C (Nagy et al., 2003). It is a constructive approach for users to attempt a range of chemical mutagens to assess the lethality and sterility on germinal tissue before creating large mutant populations.
It is a presentation showing the process of doing a prokaryotic genome annotation using RAST server. It is a basic work in bioinformatics field. Genome annotation is total genome analysis of an organism. We can easily do it using bioinformatics tool like RAST server.
Somaclonal and gametoclonal variation refer to genetic variations that arise in plants regenerated from cell and tissue cultures. There are two main types - somaclonal variation originating from somatic cells, and gametoclonal variation from gametic cells like pollen. Variations can be induced through long term culture, exposure to mutagens, or selection in media containing inhibitors or toxins. Somaclonal variants are isolated and screened using cytological, biochemical, and molecular markers to identify desirable heritable traits for commercial use in plant breeding programs.

ESTs are short sequences of DNA that represent genes expressed in certain tissues or organisms. They provide a quick and inexpensive way for scientists to discover new genes and map their positions in genomes. ESTs represent a snapshot of genes expressed in a tissue at a given time. Sequencing the beginning or end of cDNA clones produces 5' and 3' ESTs, which can help identify genes and study gene expression and regulation.
Gene tagging uses recognizable DNA fragments like T-DNA or transposons to disrupt gene function and identify genes responsible for mutant phenotypes. T-DNA tagging in plants involves random integration of Agrobacterium T-DNA that can disrupt genes and create mutants. Transposon tagging relies on the ability of transposons to move within genomes and disrupt gene function. Both techniques have been used successfully to isolate numerous plant genes involved in traits like color and development.
Production of synthetic seed involves encapsulating somatic embryos, shoot buds, or cell aggregates using tissue culture techniques. This allows for the large-scale, low-cost propagation of plants while maintaining genetic uniformity. Synthetic seeds can be stored longer than traditional seeds and planted directly in fields without the need for transplanting. While synthetic seeds have advantages over traditional micropropagation methods, their production and germination rates can still be limited for some plant species.
The document discusses protoplast culture, beginning with definitions and historical development. Protoplasts are isolated through either mechanical or enzymatic methods from plant tissues. Isolated protoplasts can be purified, cultured, and regenerated through cell division to form callus or whole plants. Protoplast culture has various applications, including studying cell walls, organelle isolation, and somatic hybridization. While limitations exist, protoplast culture provides advantages for genetic engineering and crop improvement.
Whole genome sequencing of arabidopsis thalianaBhavya Sree
This document summarizes the genome sequencing of Arabidopsis thaliana. It discusses that genome sequencing approaches began being discussed in 1984 and the Human Genome Project officially began in 1990. The Arabidopsis genome project was initiated in 1990 and was completed in 2000, sequencing approximately 115.4 Mb and predicting 25,498 genes. The outcomes of the sequencing project included characterization of coding regions, comparative analysis between accessions and other plant genera, and integration of the three plant genomes.
The document provides an overview of the history and techniques of transcriptome analysis. It discusses how RNA was separated from DNA with the formulation of the central dogma in 1958. Key developments include the discoveries of messenger RNA, transfer RNA, and ribosomal RNA in the 1960s. The document outlines techniques such as serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) that allow comprehensive analysis of gene expression patterns. It provides details on the basic steps and advantages of SAGE and describes how next generation sequencing revolutionized transcriptome analysis through massive parallel sequencing.
Genetic engineering can be used to induce male sterility in plants by expressing genes that disrupt pollen development. Researchers have successfully transformed tobacco and oilseed rape plants with the barnase gene, which encodes an RNAse enzyme that destroys tapetal cells, preventing pollen formation. Restoration of fertility was achieved by co-expressing the barstar gene, which inhibits barnase. Similarly, expressing the argE gene in rice under a pollen-specific promoter induces male sterility when activated by an inducer, allowing hybrid seed production. Genetic engineering offers possibilities for more efficient hybrid seed systems in crops where traditional methods have not generated usable male sterility.

Genetic mapping is based on recombination frequencies between genetic loci during meiosis. Physical mapping determines the actual distances in base pairs between sequences on a chromosome using overlapping DNA fragments. Before whole genome sequencing, physical maps were created using techniques like restriction mapping of large-insert clones, probing genomic libraries with end fragments, and chromosome walking to build contigs of overlapping sequences. This allowed sequencing of individual fragments which could then be assembled into a complete genome sequence.
German Scientist “Carl Vogt” was first to describe the principle of apoptosis in 1842. In 1885, Anatomist “Walther Flemming” gave more precise description of Programmed Cell Death. Apoptosis is a form of Programmed Cell Death that occurs in multicellular organisms. It is a Greek word which means falling off. It leads to breakdown and disposal of cells. Macrophages and other Phagocytic Cells remove them by Phagocytosis, without developing any type of inflammation. It is a biochemical event that leads to morphological changes and death. The average adult human looses 50-70 billion cells each day due to apoptosis.

Wide hybridization is a technique used to transfer agriculturally important traits from alien species to cultivated plants. It allows for greater genetic variability but can be hampered by issues like poor crossability and hybrid sterility. These barriers have been overcome through techniques like the use of growth hormones, improved culture conditions, chromosome doubling, and bridge crosses. Alien addition lines carry one chromosome pair from another species in addition to the parent species' normal chromosomes. They allow for the transfer of traits like disease resistance while limiting the introduction of undesirable genes. Alien addition lines have been developed in several important crop species like wheat and tobacco.
S1 Mapping is a laboratory method used for locating the start and end points of
transcripts and for mapping introns.
This technique is used for quantifying the amount of mRNA transcripts, it can therefore identify the level of transcription of the gene in the cell at a given time.
Roundup ready soybeans were developed by Monsanto to be resistant to glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup herbicide. The soybeans were engineered to express an EPSPS enzyme from bacteria that allows them to survive being sprayed by Roundup. Farmers who buy Monsanto's patented Roundup Ready seeds are required not to save and replant the seeds. Some critics argue this raises ethical and economic issues. In a Supreme Court case, a farmer tried to argue that planting seeds from a previous crop did not infringe on Monsanto's patent, but the Court rejected this, affirming that patent rights are not exhausted through natural reproduction of seeds.
OVARY CULTURE:-
"the in-vitro culturing of ovaries in an aseptic condition from the pollinated or un-pollinated flowers, in an appropriate nutrient medium and under optimal conditions." And
OVULE CULTURE:-
"Ovule culture is an experimental system by which ovules are aseptically isolated from the ovary and are grown aseptically on chemically defined nutrient medium under controlled conditions."
Terminator gene technology refers to plants that have been genetically modified to render sterile seeds at harvest.
Genetic use restriction technologies (GURTs) are the name given to experimental methods, described in a series of recent patent applications and providing specific genetic switch mechanisms that restrict the unauthorized use of genetic material (FAO, 2001a) by hampering reproduction (variety-specific V-GURT) or the expression of a trait (trait-specific T-GURT) in a genetically modified (GM) plant.
Plant regeneration is possible through organogenesis or somatic embryogenesis where differentiated plant cells can become totipotent using hormones. The process involves taking an explant from a plant and culturing it in a nutrient medium under sterile conditions to regenerate a whole new plant. Somaclonal variation may occur during this process, introducing genetic changes into the regenerated plants.
Tissue culture is the process of growing plant cells, tissues or organs in sterile conditions with nutrients to meet their needs. An explant is taken from a plant and placed in a culture vessel with agar medium containing sugars, nutrients and growth regulators. Appropriate tissue type, sterile conditions, growth medium and regulators are needed. Applications include mass propagation, producing virus-free plants, conserving rare species, selecting desirable traits and producing secondary metabolites. Callus and suspension cultures are common, involving callus growth on solid medium or cells in liquid, respectively.

Callus and suspension cultures are common, involving callus growth on solid medium or cells in liquid, respectively.
This document provides information about plant tissue culture. It begins with definitions of plant tissue culture and its goals of producing metabolites or regenerating plants. It then discusses the historical development and different types of cultures, including static callus culture, suspension culture, and organ culture focusing on roots, shoots, leaves and flowers. The document emphasizes that plant tissue culture involves cultivating excised plant tissues in a defined nutrient medium under sterile conditions to produce substances or regenerate plants.
Plant tissue culture involves growing plant cells, tissues or organs in an artificial nutrient medium under sterile conditions. Some key points:
1. It allows for the rapid mass propagation of plants through micropropagation and the production of genetically uniform plants.
2. It facilitates the production of disease-free plants through culture of meristems and shoot tips.
3. It enables genetic modification of plants through techniques like protoplast fusion, anther culture and recombinant DNA technology.
Tissue culture is a process that clones plants through micropropagation. It involves culturing plant tissues in sterile conditions with specific nutrients and hormones. There are four main stages - initiation, multiplication, rooting, and acclimatization. The multiplication stage uses cytokinins to induce shoot growth from explants like leaves or stems. Rooting uses auxins to induce root formation from shoots. The process allows for mass production of genetically identical plants independent of seasons.
The document discusses the history and techniques of plant tissue culture. It begins with early experiments in the 1830s culturing plant cells outside of their natural environment. Significant developments include the discovery of growth hormones auxin and cytokinin in the 1950s, and the development of the Murashige and Skoog medium in 1962. The document outlines the basic requirements and procedures for plant tissue culture, including selecting an explant, preparing sterile media, inoculation, incubation, sub-culturing, and transferring plantlets. Applications include rapid clonal propagation, inducing mutations, producing disease-free plants, and conserving rare species.
The ability of an explant to regenerate into a whole plant under in vitro asceptic conditions by providing a proper artificial nutrient medium is called as Plant Tissue Culture.
This document provides an overview of micropropagation techniques. It discusses the 5 main stages of micropropagation: 1) initiation of culture using explants, 2) multiplication of cultures through shoots, 3) in vitro rooting of shoots, 4) hardening of plantlets, and 5) acclimatization. It also covers advantages such as producing large numbers of disease-free clones rapidly and independently of seasons, as well as disadvantages like high costs and difficulty acclimatizing plants. The document gives examples of explants used and techniques for shoot multiplication, and discusses applications of micropropagation.
The main purpose of these slides is to convey information to the Professors, Lecturers, and Students. These slides contain authentic information about this topic which is mentioned in that.
The document describes the steps involved in micropropagation:
1. Explant selection from a donor plant
2. Establishment of the explant in culture media
3. Callus development and cell division from the explant
4. Development of plantlets from the callus tissue
5. Hardening or acclimatization of the plantlets for transplanting.

5. Hardening or acclimatization of the plantlets for transplanting.
Micropropagation is the process of rapidly multiplying plant materials in an aseptic laboratory environment. It involves culturing small pieces of plant tissue on nutrient media containing hormones and sugars. The ratio of auxin and cytokinin hormones determines whether shoots or roots develop. Micropropagation has several advantages over traditional propagation methods, including producing many identical clones of plants that are disease-free and genetically uniform. The process involves initiation, multiplication, rooting, and transfer to soil stages. Common micropropagation techniques are meristem culture, callus culture, and embryogenesis.
This document discusses plant tissue culture, including the types, steps involved, and procedures. It describes the different types of plant tissue culture such as seed culture, embryo culture, and anther culture. The key steps are initiation, multiplication, root formation, shoot formation, and acclimatization. The procedures covered are sterilization of materials, preparation and sterilization of explants, production and proliferation of callus, subculturing, and suspension culture. The document provides details on the composition of culture media and the roles of macronutrients, micronutrients, vitamins, nitrogen supplements, carbon sources, growth regulators, and solidifying agents.
Mass multiplication procedure for tissue culture and PTC requirementDr. Deepak Sharma
This presentation include basic Micropropagation protocol: Application and advantages of mass multiplication. Beside this the requirement of tissue culture are there (Nutrient, gelling agent, energy source, vitamins and PGRs) are also included.
The document discusses micropropagation stage II, which involves shoot multiplication through three main methods: callus culture, adventitious bud formation, and enhanced axillary branching. Callus culture involves inducing a callus from which shoots can regenerate, adventitious bud formation involves inducing buds in non-typical locations on explants, and enhanced axillary branching uses high cytokinin levels to promote growth of axillary buds into shoots. Each method has advantages like high multiplication rates but also disadvantages like genetic instability or complex protocols. The key goal of stage II is rapid shoot multiplication through manipulation of plant growth hormones.
This document outlines the steps involved in micropropagation of plants through tissue culture:
1. Selection and sterilization of explant tissue
2. Establishment of explant in culture media
3. Multiplication of explants through cell division and formation of callus or shoots
4. Root formation through manipulation of growth regulators in culture media
5. Hardening and acclimatization of plantlets before transferring to soil.
The document discusses various tissue culture techniques used in plant breeding including: clonal propagation of disease-free genetic stocks through tissue culture; freeze preservation of germplasm; embryo, ovule, and anther culture techniques to produce haploid plants; and the induction of genetic variability through cell cultures. It provides details on the basic procedures of plant tissue culture including establishment of aseptic culture from explants, proliferation of callus cells on nutrient media, rooting, and acclimatization of regenerated plantlets. The roles of growth hormones, nutrient media composition, and factors affecting culture efficiency are also summarized.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...Leonel Morgado
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptxMAGOTI ERNEST
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
Current Ms word generated power point presentation covers major details about the micronuclei test. It's significance and assays to conduct it. It is used to detect the micronuclei formation inside the cells of nearly every multicellular organism. It's formation takes place during chromosomal sepration at metaphase.
3. ADVENTITIOUSSHOOT
Adventitious shoot is a kind of shoot not formed in its main
location (at the end of stem and node).
It is formed in the internodal part of explants or other parts.
The reason for adventitious shoot formation is
dedifferentiation and redifferentiation of some cells.
Adventitious shoots can be generated either directly from
explants containing external parts of phloem and surface
cambium.
They can be generated indirectly from the surface of callus.

4. PLANTREGENERATION
Plant regeneration occurs when plants repair or replace damaged structures
based on the totipotency and pluripotency of their cells.
Tissue culture is one of the most widely used regenerative technologies.
Regeneration of plants can be through either non-adventitious system or the
adventitious system.
Regeneration of plant from auxillary bud is an example of non-adventitious
system.
Adventitious system of regeneration can be through the organogenesis and
embryogenesis.
Adventitious Shoot Regeneration…

5. In the organogenesis, the regeneration of plant is through formation of
adventitious organs from the explants such as root, lower part of stem or trailing
leaves.
Adventitious shoots initiated directly on organ explants usually develop from a
shoot apex formed superficially from epidermis or hypodermis.

6. OBJECTIVESOFADVENTITIOUSSHOOTREGENERATION
The establishment of plant adventitious shoot regeneration systems mainly has
two intentions :-
(I) On the one hand, an adventitious shoot regeneration system provides
technology of the rapid reproduction of plants.
(II) On the other hand, they are basis of gene function research in plants.

7. PLANTTISSUECULTURE
Plant tissue culture is a collection of techniques used to maintain or grow
plant cells, tissues or organs under sterile conditions on a nutrient culture
medium of known composition.
Plant tissue culture is widely used to produce clones of a plant in a method
known as micropropagation.
The three common pathways of plant tissue culture regeneration are :-
(i) propagation from pre-existing meristems (shoot culture or nodal culture)
(ii) organogenesis
(iii) non-zygotic (somatic) embryogenesis
6
Adventitious Shoot Regeneration…
8. ORGANOGENESIS
The development of adventitious organs or primordia from undifferentiated cell
mass in tissue culture by the process of differentiation is called organogenesis.
Caulogenesis: The type of organogenesis by which only adventitious shoot bud
initiation take place in the callus tissue.
Adventitious Shoot Regeneration…
7
9. In plant tissue culture, undifferentiated tissue is referred to as callus.
Although a callus can contain meristematic nodules that may not be obvious to
the naked eye but which never develop further unless suitable conditions are
supplied.
Development of organized structures can follow one of three pathways :-
1. Shoot regeneration, based on a unipolar structure with a shoot apical
meristem.
2. Root regeneration, essentially a unipolar structure with a root apical
meristem.
3. Somatic embryogenesis in which there is a bipolar structure.

11. INDIRECTORGANOGENESIS
Indirect organogenesis indicate the plant organ formation on callus tissues
derived from explants.
The process of indirect organogenesis is more useful in the development of a
transgenic plant.
There are two ways that can be used to develop a transgenic plant in the indirect
organogenesis method :
(i) Transformed callus is used to regenerate a new plant that is transgenic.
(ii) A modified explant is used to develop callus in the shoot, transform explant is
initially used.
Adventitious Shoot Regeneration…

12. Effect of plant growth regulators and differentiation :
The classic observations of Skoog and Miller that the direction of differentiation
could be influenced by the ratio of the exogenously supplied growth regulators
auxin and cytokinin.
They observed in tobacco stem pith cultures that a high ratio of auxin to
cytokinin led to initiation of roots whereas a low ratio led to development of
shoots.
Although there are many species for which this simple manipulation will not
work, in general auxins e.g. IAA, NAA will stimulate regeneration of roots, and
cytokinins e.g. BAP will promote regeneration of shoots or embryos.
Adventitious Shoot Regeneration…
11
13. DIRECTORGANOGENESIS
Direct organogenesis indicate the formation of organs directly on the surface
of cultured intact explants. The process does not involve callus formation.
It results in the development of planting material with no genetic variation
therefore cloning.
Uniformity in the planting material is ensured.
This process is also useful in propagating plants with a better multiplication rate
(the number of plants per explant is higher).
Direct organogenesis is more of an industrial process as it provides plants with
better multiplication rates and cloning propagation where the genetic variation
is zero.
A good example is the formation of somatic embryos.

Preparation of Reagents and Media :-
(i) Ethanol : Prepare 80 ml of a 70% ethanol solution in a sterile 100-ml beaker.
The same solution can be reused for all explants being prepared for culture.
(ii) Bleach : Prepare 80 ml of a 35% solution of commercial chlorine bleach in a
sterile 100 ml beaker. Prepare a different beaker for each cultivar or plant being
prepared for culture.
Prepare 80 ml of a 10% solution of commercial chlorine bleach in a sterile 100 ml

15. (iii) Sterile Distilled Water : Place sterile water in sterile 100 ml beakers. Use
different beakers of water for the explants from each cultivar or plant being
prepared with each surface sterilization protocol.
(iv) Culture Media : Culture medium MS-AV should be prepared in 100X 20mm
petri dishes; alternative culture vessels may be appropriate. Culture media ½- MS

18. With sterile scalpel and forceps, cut the mass of plantlets into smaller pieces
and transfer to fresh MS-AV media as follows:
Half of the tissue masses should be cut into very small pieces of material for
transfer, each including at least one shoot tip or rosette.
The other half of the tissue masses should be cut into larger pieces containing
several shoot buds.
Compare the multiplication rates obtained from larger vs. smaller pieces.
Seal the cultures and incubate them for 4 weeks.
Repeat the multiplication cycle as often as time permits or as planned.
Observe the cultures at the end of each culture passage and record the
number of shoots obtained from each explanted piece.

19. Stage III. Rooting of Shoots :
Excise and transfer ten or more individual shoots, at least 1 cm in length, to 11 2-
MS medium for continued development and elongation of the shoot.
Also transfer ten or more individual shoots to 112-MS-IAA medium for
comparison of root induction frequencies.
Seal the cultures and incubate them for 4 weeks.
Transfer the shoots to fresh ½-MS medium on a monthly basis until roots appear.
Observe weekly for root initiation and record the frequency of root formation.
Stage IV. Plant Establishment/Acclimatization :

20. Plant the regenerant in a small pot or in a plastic sandwich bag with sterile soil
mix.
Make sure the soil is moist with water, but is not sodden.
Wrap the pot and plant in plastic wrap, and use a plastic stake to allow the plastic
wrap to form a tent over the plant.
Plants should not need to be watered for the first few days.
Place the pots in diffuse light.
Open the tents to allow air exchange briefly every day.
After 1 week, let some air in the tent for 1 h each day.
After another week, increase gradually to several hours per day.
After a total of 2-3 weeks, remove the wrap and allow the plants to adjust to
ambient conditions.

21. FACTORSAFFECTING ORGANOGENESIS
In vitro organogenesis is controlled by a number of factors other than
phytohormones, such factors are :-
Size of Explant : Organogenesis is generally dependent upon size of explant.
The large explant consisting parenchyma, vascular tissues and cambium have
greater regenerative ability than the smaller explant.
Source of Explant : The most suitable part of the plant for starting culture will
depend on species. Leaves and leaf fragment of many plant species like Begonia,
Solanum, Nicotina, Crepis, etc. have shown capacity to regenerate shoot buds.
Age of the Explant : Physiological age of explant is important for in vitro
organogenesis. In Nicotiana species, regeneration of adventitious shoot is only
noted if the leaf explant is collected from vegetative stage i.e. before flowering.
Adventitious Shoot Regeneration…
20
22. Seasonal Variation : Bulb scales of Lilium speciosum regenerate bulblets
freely in vitro when explant is taken during spring and autumn period of growth
but same explants collected from summer or winter season does not produce any
bulblets.
Oxygen Gradient : In some cultures, shoot bud formation takes place when
the gradient of available oxygen inside the culture vessel is reduced. But rooting
requires a high oxygen gradient.
Quality and Intensity of Light : The blue region of spectrum promotes shoot
formation and red light induce rooting.
Temperature : Most tissue culture are grown successfully at temperature
around 25°C. In number of bulbous species optimum temperature may be much
lower of about 15-18°C.
Adventitious Shoot Regeneration…
21
23. Culture Medium : Medium solidified with agar favors bud formation although
there are some reports about the development of leaf shoot buds on culture
grown in a liquid medium.
pH of the Medium : The pH of the culture medium is generally adjusted
between 5.6 and 5.8 before sterilization. The pH may have a determining role in
organogenesis.
Ploidy Level : Variation in chromosome number i.e. aneuploidy, polyploidy,
etc. of plant cell in culture has been well documented. With the increase in
chromosome instability there is a general decline in morphogenetic potentiality
of callus tissue.
Age of Culture : A young culture frequently produces organs. But the
organogenic potential may decrease and ultimately disappear in old culture.
