The Longevity of Avocado Tissue in Vitro

نویسنده

چکیده

The continuous culture of tomato roots through 1600 passages and for more than 28 years by White (6) indicates the practicability of maintaining plant tissues for very long periods in vitro. This phenomena also supports the theory that under appropriate environmental conditions plant tissues can be maintained in living conditions for an indefinite time. Plant tissues other than roots such as tobacco pith have been established as clones. Through the process of successive transfers to new media these materials have been multiplied many fold in some cases and appear to have established the ability to maintain a degree of vegetative function and to undergo cell division indefinitely.

The 5' end generated in the in vitro self-cleavage reaction of avocado sunblotch viroid RNAs is present in naturally occurring linear viroid molecules.

The 5' termini of linear forms of avocado sunblotch viroid (ASBVd) isolated from infected tissue have been determined by primer extension analyses. According to the different termini identified, four main populations of linear viroid molecules were found. One of them had the same 5' end as the one produced in the in vitro self-cleavage reaction of ASBVd dimeric transcripts mediated by a hammerh...
