Type of in vitro culture Culture of intact plants (Seed orchid culture) Embryo culture (embryo rescue) Organ culture 1. 2. 3. 4. shoot tip culture Root culture Leaf culture anther culture Callus culture Cell suspension and single cell culture Protoplast culture Seed culture Increasing efficiency of germination of seeds that are difficult to germinate in vivo Precocious germination by application of plant growth regulators Production of clean seedlings for explants or meristem culture Embryo rescue This is useful technique in plant tissue culture where embryo abortion is reported at early stage and seed setting is failed. Here immature embryo, ovary or ovule is rescued ( separated ) and cultured. 4 Endosperm culture As endosperm is triploid so are the plantlets formed from it. This technique may be exploited as an alternative to crossing tetraploid and diploid parents for raising triploids during plant improvement programme. The triploid plants are self-sterile and usually seedless. 5 Organ culture Any plant organ can serve as an explant to initiate cultures Shoot apical meristem culture Culturing of apical meristem (the region of shoot apex laying distal to leaf primordium) Also known as meristem culture, meristemming & mericlones. Extensively used in horticulture, agriculture and forestry. Production of virus free germplasm Mass production of desirable genotypes Facilitation of exchange between locations (production of clean material) Cryopreservation (cold storage) or in vitro conservation of germplasm Root tip culture By using meristematic cells such as those that operate in the root tip or bud.

Wheat, Rice, Maize, Rye, Tobacco, Potato, Brassicas has been used in pollen & anther culture to release the cultivars having superior chts. , high yield & disease resistance. 14 5/23/2017 15 Ovary or ovule culture Production of haploid plants A common explant for the initiation of somatic embryogenic cultures Overcoming abortion of embryos of wide hybrids at very early stages of development due to incompatibility barriers In vitro fertilization for the production of distant hybrids avoiding style and stigmatic incompatibility that inhibits pollen germination and pollen tube growth Bajaj, Y.P.S. 1983. In D.A. Evans, W.R. Sharp, P.V. Ammirato, and Y. Yamada (eds.), Handbook of Plant Cell Culture. Volume 1. Techniques for Propagation and Breeding. MacMillan, New York. p. 228-287. Callus Cultures Callus is formed via 3 developmental stages: 1. Induction 2. Cell division 3. Differentiation Callus formation is governed by The source of Explants Nutritional composition of medium And environmental factors The unique feature of callus is that the abnormal growth has biological potential to develop normal root, shoot, and embryo ultimately forming plant. Need for Callus Cultures In some instances it is necessary to go through a callus phase prior to regeneration via somatic embryogenesis or organogenesis For generation of useful somaclonal variants As a source of protoplasts and suspension cultures For production of metabolites Used in in vitro selection Cell suspension culture The technique of isolation and culturing a single selected cell When callus pieces are agitated in a liquid medium, they tend to break up. Uses: Induction of somatic embryos and shoots In vitro mutagenesis and selection of mutants Genetic transformation studies Production of secondary metabolites etc. Applications of plant cell culture Suspension culture Embryogenesis Protoplast Secondary metabolites Mutagenesis Cell modification Artificial seeds Secondary products Mutant Gene transfer Cell fusion Protoplast culture Cell without cell wall is called protoplast. For tissue culture application protoplast can be isolated from almost any part of the plant but leaves are preferentially used for this purpose as these are easy to handle. Technique involves following steps; A. Sterilization of the explant by 2% sodium hypochloride for about 30 minutes. B. Peeling of the epidermal cells. C. Digestion of cell wall by enzymes, macerozymes, cellulase, hemicellulase and pectinase. D. Washing of the released protoplasts. 22 Protoplast fusion The common methods employed for the fusion of the released protoplasts is as: A. Spontaneous fusion of protoplast. B. Mechanical induction fusion. C.NaNO3 induced fusion. D. High p H and Ca++ induced fusion. E. Poly Ethylene Glycol induced fusion (PEG). F. Electro fusion. 23 The most popular method of protoplast fusion is PEG induced fusion. In this freshly isolated protoplasts from desired parents are mixed in appropriate mixture. The mixture is treated with 28-50% PEG for 15-30 minutes to facilitate fusion. Protoplasts are subject to gradual wash with culture medium. Fusion frequency can be increased by 50% if high Ca++ concentration is used at p H 9-10. 24 25 Somatic embryogenesis The process of a single cell or group of cells initiating the development pathways that leads to reproducible regeneration of non zygotic embryo capable of germination to form complete plant. OR a process embryo initiation and development from somatic cell (non zygotic cell) Haploid - Gametic number of chromosomes, n which may not be equivalent to x (x is one genomic complement) Monoploid - haploid derived from a diploid, x (one genomic complement) Polyhaploid - haploid from a polyploid (nx), prefix indicates genome complement number, e.g. tobacco is a dihaploid Agricultural applications for haploids Rapid generation of homozygous genotypes after chromosome doubling Reduce time for variety development, e.g. 10 to 6 years or less Homozygous recombinant line can be developed in one generation instead of after numerous backcross generations Selection for recessive traits in recombinant lines is more efficient since these are not masked by the effects of dominant alleles Processes Leading to Production of Haploid Plants Androgenesis – haploid plant derived from male gamete, most common method in vitro Parthenogenesis - from unfertilized egg Apogamy - from other cells of the mega-gametophyte, example Chromosome elimination - chromosome elimination in somatic cells, most common method used with plant breeding
