Culture techniquesCulture techniques
Several methods,
• Agar culture
• Liquid culture
- Liquid droplet method
- Hanging droplet method
• Feeder layer
• Co-culturing
Agar cultureAgar culture
• Directly add Protoplast suspension
Merits
• Protoplasts remain in fixed position, so that Protoplast clumping is avoided
• Protoplast immobilized in semi-solid media gives rise to cell clones & allow accurate determination of plating efficiency.
Liquid cultureLiquid culture
• Protoplast suspension transfer liquid medium.
Advantages• Allow easy dilution and transfer• Protoplast of some species are not divide in
agarified media• Osmotic pressure of medium is effectively
reduced• Density of the cells can be reduced after a few
days of culture
Liquid droplet method
• Pipette out 100-200µl from suspending protoplast (in culture media)
• 5-7 droplets are placed per plastic petri dish, sealed & then incubated
• Fresh media can added every 5-7 days interval.
• Convenient for microscopic examination
Hanging droplet method• Small drops (40-100µl)protoplast
suspension placed inner side of the lidof the petri dish
• When the lid is applied to the petri dish, the culture drops are hanging or suspended from the lid
• Allows fewer protoplast per droplet
Feeder layerFeeder layer
Exposing cell suspension protoplast to X ray dose
Inhibited cell division but cells are metabolically active
Washed three times to remove toxic substances due to irradiation and plated on soft agar.
Protoplasts are plated over this feeder layer
Co- culturingCo- culturing
Protoplasts of two different species can be co cultured to promote growth
Metabolically active and dividing protoplasts of two types are mixed in a liquid medium and plated together to facilitate cross feeding
Cell wall regenerationCell wall regeneration
Protoplasts culture start to regenerate a wall from few hours to several days to complete.
The first division is observed after 3-5 days. The second division is observed within a week and after another week aggregate of cells are formed.
After three weeks, colonies are visible.
Environmental factorsEnvironmental factors
• High light intensity inhibits protoplast growth
• Temperature ranging between 20-28° C
• Culture PH is 5.5-5.9
SOMATIC HYBRIDS
SOMATIC HYBRIDS
Carried out under in vitro conditions. Fusion of isolated somatic protoplasts. Development of heterokaryons. Sex is altogether eliminated. Provides opportunity to construct hybrids
between taxonomically distant plant species.
PRODUCTION OF SOMATIC HYBRIDS
STEPS: Fusion of protoplasts Selection of hybrid cells Identification of hybrid plants Verification and characterisation of somatic hybrids
PROTOPLAST FUSION
Induced fusion method: Fusogen is added to fuse the cells. Spontaneous fusion method. Treatment with sodium nitrate: First reported by power et.al. Calcium ions at high pH. Polyethylene glycol method: Kao and michayluk and wallin et al. Electrofusion
1971: Nagata & Takebe (Japan) Regeneration of from
protoplast fusion
1972: Carlson From protoplast fusion
N. Glauca + N. langsdorffii (2n= 24) (2n=18)
somatic hybrid (2n= 24)
MECHANISM OF FUSION
Protoplast fusion consists of three main phases: Agglutination Plasma membrane fusion at localised sites. Formation of heterokaryons.
IDENTIFICATION AND SELECTION OF HYBRID CELLS.
Based on observation of visual characters,genetic complementation for recessive mutations and physiological complementation.
In complementation,fusion of two protoplasts each carrying a different recessive marker ,will generate a fusion product which is functionally restored since each parent contributes a functional allele that corrects the respective deficiency of the other parent.
CHLOROPHYLL DEFICIENCEY COMPLEMENTATION.
Two distinct homozygous recessive albino mutants of Nicotiana tabacum were used.
Chlorophyll deficient light sensitive varieties sublethal and virescent were used.
Melcher and labib(1974) first used this. After two months of incubation under high light
condition,green colonies were developed.
AUXOTROPH COMPLEMENTATION
other Reported by Glimelius et.al.(1978) Nitrate reductase deficient mutants of N.tabacum
could not be grown on nitrate as a sole nitrogen source.
But hybrids could regenerate shoots in nitrate medium.
The lack of nitrate reductase activity causes an absolute requirement for reduced nitrogen and is caused by a deficiency either in the NR apoenzyme (nia-type mutant) or in the molybdenum cofactor(cnx-type mutant).
Both regularly complement each on fusion.
USE OF METABOLIC INHIBITORS
Treatment with irreversible biochemical inhibitor • Iodoacetate • Diethylpyrocarbamate
Parent protoplast unable to to reproduce Hybrid protoplasts continue to develop and yield
hybrid plants
• N. sylvestris and N. tabacum• N. plumbaginifolia and N. tabacum
USE OF VISUAL CHARACTERSTICS
Most efficient but the most tedious method. Products of protoplast fusion are visually identified. After identification cells are mechanically isolated. FLUORESCENT LABELING: Protoplasts are laoded with different fluorescent
dyes prior to fusion. The fluorescent label of fusion products can be
recognised in a fluoroscence microscope. Products are separated when fusion mixtures are
run through a fluorescence activated cell sorter.
VERIFICATION AND CHARACTERISATION OF SOMATIC HYBRIDS
Morphology Isozyme analysis Chromosomal constitution Genetic characterisation.
SOMATIC HYBRIDIZATION IN SOLANUM

USDA-ARS
OBJECTIVES
• To “capture” disease resistance from wild potato species
• To use segregating populations to identify plant disease resistance genes and transfer resistance into potato cultivars
METHODS
• Isolate protoplasts (typically leaf mesophyll) from two parental lines
• Fuse protoplasts either chemically (PEG) or using electrofusion
• Cell membranes fuse forming one cell containing 2 nuclei
• On cell division nuclear material condenses together and hybrids cells are formed that contain DNA from both parental lines.
