This document discusses organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis in plant tissue culture. It describes that organogenesis involves dedifferentiation of explant tissues into undifferentiated callus cells, followed by redifferentiation into organ primordia. Several factors like plant hormones, chemicals, enzymes affect this process. Somatic embryogenesis involves formation of embryos from somatic plant cells that pass through similar developmental stages as zygotic embryos. Synthetic seeds are also discussed, which are encapsulated somatic embryos or buds that can be stored and sown like conventional seeds.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.
DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.
Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
2. • The process of initiation and development of an organ is called
organogenesis.
• In plant tissue culture, Organogenesis means the development of
adventitious organs or primordia from undifferentiated cell mass in tissue
culture by the process of differentiation.
• Organogenesis in plant tissue culture involves two distinct phases:
dedifferentiation and redifferentiation.
• Dedifferentiation begins shortly after the isolation of the explant tissues
with an acceleration of cell division and a consequent formation of a mass
of undifferentiated cells (called callus).
• Redifferentiation, also called budding in plant tissue culture, may begin any
time after the first callus cell forms. In this process of tissue called organ
primordia is differentiated from a single or a group of callus cells. The
organ primordia give rise to small meristems with cells densely filled with
protoplasm and strikingly large nuclei.
4. Factors effecting organogenesis
• In a callus tissue the changes of chromosome structure or number such as
aneuploidy, polyploidy, cryptic chromosomal rearrangements etc. Such
chromosomal changes may lead to loss of totipotency of the cells.
• At the early stage of culture, the callus tissue exhibits maximum number of
diploid cells. Eventually at the later stage of culture, the cells of callus
tissue become mixaploid due to alteration of chromosome number and
organogenesis could not be induced in such callus tissue, Occasionally,
rooting occurs but shoot bud does not develop.
Genetic or a physiological change
5. Phytoharmones
• For organogenesis the required balance of phytohormones by
an exogenous supply of auxin, cytokinin or gibberellin either
separately or in combination is essential .
• Generally high concentration of cytokinin brings about shoot
bud initiation, whereas high levels of auxin favours rooting.
• Therefore, to obtain organogenesis, different permutation and
combination of hormones as well as various concentrations of
hormones are supplemented in the culture medium.
6. Other Chemicals
• Certain phenolic compounds also induce shoot initiation in tobacco
callus- Phenolic compounds actually inactivate the auxins and conse-
quently rise in the physiologically effective level of cytokinins which
ultimately bring about the initiation of shoot buds.
• The use of auxin inhibitor or auxin antagonist via culture medium also
causes the induction of shoot bud.
• Additions of adenine in the culture medium also induce shoot bud in the
callus tissue.
• Chelating agent like 1, 3 diamino-2- hydoxypropane-N.N.N’.N’ tetra-
acetic acid initiates Shoot bud in haploid tobacco cultures.
• Abscisic acid in place of cytokinin also induces shoot bud formation in
root tuber tissue of sweet potato and stem tuber tissue of potato.
7. Enzymes
• Peroxidase- One of the most important functions of peroxidase is
involvement in the metabolism of auxin.
• Enzymes involving in carbohydrate metabolism- Gibberellic acid,
which represses starch accumulation by mobilising high amylase
synthesis/activity, also inhibits shoot formation.
• Embden Meyerhof-Parnas (EMP) and Pentose Phosphate (PP)
Pathway enzymes namely phosphoglucose isomerase, aldolase,
pyruvate kinase, glucose-6- phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-
phosphogluconate dehydrogenase etc. also involving in the shoot
formation.
8. Embryo genesis
• The process of formation of an embryo is called embryogenesis.
Embryogenesis starts from a single embryogenic cell, that can be
a zygote or an undifferentiated callus cell.
• Embryos developing from zygotes are called zygotic embryos, while
those derived from somatic cells are called somatic embryos.
• In plant tissue culture, the developmental pathway of numerous well-
organised, small embryoids resembling the zygotic embryos from the
embryo genic potential somatic plant cell of the callus tissue or cells of
suspension culture is known as somatic embryogenesis.
• Embryoid is a small, well-organised structure comparable to the sexual
embryo, which is produced in tissue culture of dividing embryo genic
potential somatic cells.
9.
10. • Zygotic and somatic embryos
share the same gross pattern
of development.
• Both types of embryos
develop as passing through
typical developmental
stages, such as globular,
scutellar and coleoptilar
stages for monocots, or
globular, heart, torpedo and
cotyledonary stages for
dicots and conifers.
• Embryo development is
bipolar, having a shoot and a
radicular pole at opposite
end.
11. • Somatic embryogenesis appears to occur when the progenitor
cell undergoes an unequal division, resulting in a larger vacuolate
cell and a small, densely cytoplasmic (embryogenic) cell .
• The embryogenic cell then either continues to divide irregularly to
form a proembryonal complex or divides in a highly organized manner
to form a somatic embryo.
• Later root apex and shoot apex were developed and transformed to
globular stage.
• Morphological changes during the transition from the globular stage
to the heart stage are the first visible sign of the formation of the two
embryonic organ systems: the cotyledons and the axis.
12. • In zygotic embryogenesis, maturation is characterized by attainment of
mature embryo morphology, accumulation of storage carbohydrates, lipids
and proteins, reduction in water content and a gradual decline or cessation
of metabolism.
• Somatic embryos usually do not mature properly. Instead, due to
environmental factors such as keeping a constant contact with inducing
medium, somatic embryos often deviate from the normal developmental
pattern by bypassing embryo maturation producing callus, undergoing
direct secondary embryogenesis and/or germinating precociously
13. • The mass production of adventitious embryos in cell culture is still regarded
by many as the ideal propagation system.
• The adventitious embryo is a bipolar structure that develops directly into a
complete plantlet and there is no need for a separate rooting phase as with
shoot culture.
• Somatic embryo has no food reserves, but suitable nutrients could be
packaged by coating or encapsulation to form some kind of artificial seeds.
Such artificial seeds produce the plantlets directly into the field.
• Unlike organogenesis, somatic embryos may arise from single cells and so it
is of special significance in mutagenic studies.
• Plants derived from asexual embryos may in some cases be free of viral and
other pathogens. So it is an alternative approach for the production of
disease-free plants.
Importance of Somatic Embryogenesis:
15. • Synthetic seeds are encapsulated somatic embryos, shoot buds, cell aggregates or
any other tissue that can be used for sowing as a seed or that possesses the ability
to convert into a plant under in vitro or ex vitro conditions and that can retain this
potential also after storage.
• Synthetic seeds are produced by encapsulating a plant propagule in a matrix which
will allow it to grow into a plant. Plant propagules consist of shoot buds or somatic
embryos that have been grown aseptically in tissue culture.
• In the production of Synthetic seeds , an artificial endosperm is created within the
encapsulation matrix. The encapsulation matrix is a hydrogel made of natural
extracts from seaweed (agar, carageenan or alginate), plants (arabic or tragacanth),
seed gums (guar, locust bean gum or tamarind) or microrganisms (dextran, gellan
or xanthan gum.).
• These compounds will gel when mixed with or dropped into an appropriate
electrolyte (copper sulphate, calcium chloride or ammonium chloride). Ionic bonds
are formed to produce stable complexes. Useful adjuvants such as nutrients, plant
growth regulators, pesticide and fungicide can be supplied to the plant propagule
within the encapsulation matrix. In most cases, a second coat covering the artificial
endosperm is required to simulate the seed coat.
16. Types of synthetic seeds
Uncoated, Desiccated Somatic Seeds:
• The embryos are desiccated to contain 8-15% moisture contents
Coated, Desiccated Somatic Embryos:
• The somatic embryos are coated with polyoxyethylene and then
desiccated.
Coated, Hydrated Somatic Seeds:
• Use of hydrated gels (like sodium alginate) with embryo.
Uncoated, Hydrated Synthetic Seeds
• Fluid drilling is done for delivery of somatic embryos
17. Steps of Synthetic Seeds Production
Establishment of somatic embryogenesis
Maturation of somatic embryos
Synchronization and simulations of somatic embryos
Mass production of somatic embryos
Standardization of encapsulation
Standardization of artificial endosperm
Mass production of synthetic seeds
Green house and field planting
18.
19. Encapsulation
• Encapsulation is necessary to produce and to protect synthetic seeds. the
encapsulation is done by various types of hydrogels which are water
soluble. the gel has a complexing agent which is used in varied
concentrations.
Gelling agent (% w/v) Complexing agent (μM)
Sodium alginate (0.5 – 5.0)*
Sodium alginate (2.0) with Gelatin (5.0)*
Carragenan (0.2 – 0.8)
Locust beam gum (0.4-1.0)
Gelrite (0.25)
Calcium salts (30 –100)
Calcium chloride (30 –100)
Potassium chloride
Ammonium chloride (500)
temperature lowered
• Alginate hydrogel is frequently selected as a matrix for synthetic seed
because of its moderate viscosity and low spinnability of solution, low
toxicity for somatic embryos and quick gellation, low cost and
biocompatibility characteristics.
20. Principle and Conditions for Encapsulation with Alginate Matrix
• The major principle involved in the alginate encapsulation process is
that the sodium alginate droplets containing the somatic embryos
when dropped into the CaCl2.2H2O solution form round and firm
beads due to ion exchange between the Na+ in sodium alginate with
Ca2+ in the CaCl2 . 2H2O solution.
• The hardness or rigidity of the capsule mainly depends upon the
number of sodium ions exchanged with calcium ions. Hence the
concentration of the two gelling agents i.e., sodium alginate and
calcium CaCl2.2H3O and the complexing time should be optimized for
the formation of the capsule with optimum bead hardness and rigidity.
• Sodium alginate (3%) upon complexation with CaCl2. 2H3O (1%) for
half an hour gives optimum bead hardness and rigidity for the
production of viable synthetic seeds

23. Application of Synthetic Seed
• Artificial seed provides low price production.
• It’s going to act as distinctive delivery system.
• It plays a task of reproductive structure in embryo development.
• Artificial seed technology has evolved as another and probably economical technique
for mass propagation of various plant varieties.
• By the employment of artificial seed technology species may be propagated.
• Cereals, fruits and healthful plants may be studied with the assistance of artificial seed
development at any place in the world.
• Artificial seeds area unit terribly little therefore, they’re straightforward to handle.
• Artificial seed may be transported from one country to a different while not any
obligations from the quarantine department.
• Direct inexperienced house and field delivery of elite(seeds) chosen genotypes,
genetically built plants area unit doable.
• Artificial seed crop area unit sometimes straightforward to handle attributable to
uniform genetic constituent.
