Isolation, Regeneration and PEG-Induced Fusion of Protoplasts of Pleurotus pulmonarius and Pleurotus florida

چکیده
Inter-specific hybridization between Pleurotus pulmonarius and P. florida was attempted through PEG-induced protoplast fusion to select a fusant. The protocol for protoplast release, regeneration and fusion in these two Pleurotus species was standardized using the variables controlling the process. The mixture of mycolytic enzymes, i.e. commercial cellulase, crude chitinase and pectinase, KCl (0.6 M) as osmotic stabilizer, pH 6 of the phosphate buffer and an incubation time of 3 hours resulted in the maximum release of protoplasts from 3-day-old mycelia of P. florida (5.3~5.75 × 10(7) protoplasts/g) and P. pulmonarius (5.6~6 × 10(7) protoplasts/g). The isolated protoplasts of P. florida regenerated mycelium with 3.3% regeneration efficiency while P. pulmonarius showed 4.1% efficiency of regeneration. Polyethyleneglycol (PEG) - induced fusion of protoplasts of these two species resulted in 0.28% fusion frequency. The fusant produced fruiting bodies on paddy straw but required a lower temperature of crop running (24 ± 2℃) than its parents which could fruit at 28 ± 2℃. The stable fusant strain was selected by testing for the selected biochemical markers i.e. Carbendazim tolerance and utilization of the lignin degradation product, vanillin.

Pleurotus eous colonies regenerated on plates containing complete medium overlaid with soft agar gave 0.28% regeneration efficiency, while that of Pleurotus flabellatus was slightly less (0.24%). In PEG (polyethylene glycol) induced fusion experiments with Pleurotus eous and Pleurotus flabellatus, 0.18% of fusion frequency was achieved and four fusant colonies were recovered. The fusant No.4 co...

The extensive use of pesticides leads to accumulation of a huge amount of residues in the environment. As such, the present study investigates the potentiality of Pleurotus pulmonarius to bioremediate dichlorvos pesticides (2,2-dichlorovinyldimethylphosphate) in contaminated soil. DDVP-polluted soils have been contaminated in five concentrations (5% v/w, 10% v/w, 15% v/w, 20% v/w, and 25% v/w),...
