Isolated microspore culture is an excellent system for the production of doubled haploids in many crops, including barley. In a more traditional barley anther culture method copper sulphate is known to enhance plant regeneration. Here we report that one hundred times higher concentration of copper sulphate in the isolated microspore culture of two spring barley genotypes compared to the standard content in the induction medium resulted in a 34% increase of total plant regeneration. Detailed analysis of plant regeneration showed that additional supplementation of copper sulphate increased not only the regeneration of green plants but also proportionately that of albino plants. Hence, the results from two studied genotypes do not support an assumption that the addition of copper reduces albinism in barley microspore culture.

Neural protheses have potential to restore nervous system functions lost by trauma or disease. Nanofabrication extends this approach to implants for stimulating and recording from single or small groups of neurons in the spinal cord and brain; however, tissue compatibility is a major limitation to their practical application. We are using a cell culture method for quantitatively measuring cell attachment to surfaces designed for nanofabricated neural prostheses.Silicon wafer test surfaces composed of 50-μm bars separated by aliphatic regions were fabricated using methods similar to a procedure described by Kleinfeld et al. Test surfaces contained either a single or double positive charge/residue. Cyanine dyes (diIC18(3)) stained the background and cell membranes (Fig 1); however, identification of individual cells at higher densities was difficult (Fig 2). Nuclear staining with acriflavine allowed discrimination of individual cells and permitted automated counting of nuclei using 3-D data sets from the confocal microscope (Fig 3). For cell attachment assays, LRM5 5 astroglial cells and astrocytes in primary cell culture were plated at increasing cell densities on test substrates, incubated for 24 hr, fixed, stained, mounted on coverslips, and imaged with a 10x objective.
