Isolation and Characterization of ABA-Insensitive Cell Lines of Carrot.

چکیده
While abscisic acid (ABA) exerts multiple effects on somatic embryogenesis, the most pronounced of these effects is the arrestment of torpedo-stage embryos, preventing them from developing into plantlets. In order to understand the mechanism of ABA inhibition of plantlet formation, we have isolated seven ABA-insensitive cell lines capable of developing into plantlets in the presence of ABA. These ABA-insensitive cell lines, whose frequency of appearance is 7 x 10(-6), have been isolated from a haploid cell line of Daucus carota L. var Juwarot. Surprisingly, all seven cell lines exhibit auxin insensitivity as evidenced by their ability to produce heart-stage embryos in various auxins including 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), naphthalene acetic acid, and indolacetic acid. Three of the cell lines, ABA 1, ABA 15, and ABA 17, have been further characterized. We found that all three showed lower levels of ABA uptake which may be the cause of ABA insensitivity. However, the uptake of 2,4-D is higher in the three cell lines than in the wild type. The basis of the interaction between ABA and 2,4-D responses is discussed.

Molecular and physiological characterization of the Arabidopsis thaliana Oxidation-related Zinc Finger 2, a plasma membrane protein involved in ABA and salt stress response through the ABI2-mediated signaling pathway.
CCCH-type zinc finger proteins are important for developmental and environmental responses. However, the precise roles of these proteins in plant stress tolerance are poorly understood. Arabidopsis thaliana Oxidation-related Zinc Finger 2 (AtOZF2) (At4g29190) is an AtOZF1 homolog previously isolated from Arabidopsis, which confers oxidative stress tolerance on plants. The AtOZF2 protein is loca...
متن کاملCytotoxic activity of in vitro cultures of Linum spp.
There are some reports on the lignan constituents of Linum spp. In this study, we investigated the cyototoxicity of Linum spp. in vitro cultures for the first time. If they show significant cytotoxic activity, they will be valuable candidates for isolation of cytotoxic compounds in large scale from them by tissue culture technology. In our study, we chose normal root, hairy root and calli cultu...
