Cotton Embryogenesis

نویسنده

  • William A. Jensen
چکیده

The formation of the zygote in cotton is accompanied by marked changes in the number and aggregation of the ribosomes. The zygote is formed approximately 14 hr after pollination but does not divide for some 56-60 hr. Electron microscope studies of the zygote during this period reveal a series of changes in the size and distribution of polysomes which may provide information on this important stage of plant development.

Induction and establishment of somatic embryogenesis in elite Indian cotton cultivar (Gossypium hirsutumL. cv Khandwa-2)

Embryogenesis in cotton is a difficult task due its genome dependency. We used 3 cotton cultivars (Khandwa-2, G. Cot. 10, and BC-68–2) and Coker-312 as control for regeneration. Efficient somatic embryogenesis was induced in agronomically important Indian cotton cultivars, Khandwa-2 and G. Cot. 10. For callusing in all the cultivars, different media combinations were tried. Embryogenesis was in...

Endogenous levels of reducing sugars, free amino acids and phenols during various stages of in vitro culture of cotton (Gossypium Spp.)

Somatic embryogenesis is widely preferred as the regeneration route for in vitro studies in cotton. However, the regeneration efficiency through this approach is low; a problem that is believed to be as a result of the biochemical properties of the plant. The objective of this study was to investigate possible relationships between three biochemical factors (reducing sugars, phenols, and free a...

A chimeric arabinogalactan protein promotes somatic embryogenesis in cotton cell culture.

Arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs) are a family of extracellular plant proteoglycans implicated in many aspects of plant growth and development, including in vitro somatic embryogenesis (SE). We found that specific AGPs were produced by cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) calli undergoing SE and that when these AGPs were isolated and incorporated into tissue culture medium, cotton SE was promoted. When th...

Small RNA and degradome sequencing reveal complex miRNA regulation during cotton somatic embryogenesis

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous non-coding ~21 nucleotide RNAs that regulate gene expression at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels in plants and animals. They play an important role in development, abiotic stress, and pathogen responses. miRNAs with their targets have been widely studied in model plants, but limited knowledge is available on the small RNA population of cotton...
