Wounded petiole surfaces of excised soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) leaves of 'Peking' formed neoplastic growths testing positive for opines after inoculation with a tumorigenic strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens. During the 48-h inoculation period, uninoculated explants and explants inoculated with A136 (avirulent), A208 (tumorigenic), and ASE1-200 (nontumorigenic) strains of A. tumefaciens showed initiation of mitotic activity at the wound surface conforming with classical descriptions of the wound response; however, shortly after explant transfer to tissue culture medium, morphogenetic patterns in explants inoculated with tumorigenic A. tumefaciens deviated from the uninoculated and A136 inoculated controls. This developmental deviation was correlated to the presence of the Ti plasmid in the bacterium. Explants inoculated with nontumorigenic A. tumefaciens showed a morphogenetic pattern intermediate between the controls and explants inoculated with tumorigenic bacteria. This suggests that the latter plant response might be due to a plant regulator gene found in the vir region of the Ti plasmid. Explants inoculated with tumorigenic bacteria showed decreasing efficiency of transformation if inoculations were delayed 4 h after excision and explants showed greatest thermosensitivity to transformation during the 48-h inoculation period. Reduced thermosensitivity was evident after transfer to tissue culture medium supplemented with carbenicillin. In this in vitro inoculation procedure, 'Peking' was shown to be twice as transformable as 'Corsoy 79'. This offers an opportunity to determine if there is a heritable component associated with transformation in this soybean explant system.Key words: Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Glycine, transformation, wound response, tissue culture.

The legume seed coat is the site of sucrose unloading and the metabolism of imported ureides and synthesis of amino acids for the developing embryo. The cell types directly responsible for these functions in the seed coat are not known. We recently described a convex layer of tissue on the inside surface of the soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) seed coat that was termed “antipit” because it was in direct opposition to the concave pit on the abaxial surface of the cotyledon. Cone cells of the antipit contained numerous hypertrophied Golgi apparatus and laminated rough endoplasmic reticulum common to actively secreting cells. The initial report by Dzikowski (1936) described the morphology of the pit and antipit in G. max and found these structures in only 68 of the 169 seed accessions examined.

Penelitian tentang pengaruh pemberian Pupuk organik cair (POC) asal limbah tumbuhan terhadap serapan hara N dan P serta produksi tanaman kedelai (Glycine max (L) Merrill) di lahan gambut telah dilaksanakan di kampus II Unisi Fakultas Pertanian Jl. Lintas Propinsi Parit 01, Desa Pulau Palas, Kecamatan Tembilahan Hulu, Kabupaten Indragiri Hilir Propinsi Riau. Dimulai dari bulan Agustus sampai bulan Oktober 2013. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mendapatkan POC asal limbah tumbuhan yang terbaik untuk serapan hara N dan P serta produksi tanaman kedelai di lahan gambut. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan acak kelompok (RAK) faktor tunggal dengan 7 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan, 2 tanaman dijadikan sampel. Perlakuan dosis POC limbah tanaman pisang dan POC limbah sayur kol yang diberikan yaitu 0 L/Ha, 200 L/Ha, 400 L/Ha dan 600 L/Ha. Parameter pengamatan yaitu : serapan hara N dan P pada fase awal generatif, tinggi tanaman, jumlah bintil akar, polong hampa, produksi perplot, berat 100 biji dan brangkasan kering. Data pengamatan dianalisis dengan sidik ragam (ANOVA) dan dilanjutkan dengan Uji Lanjut Tukey HSD pada taraf 5%. Berdasarkan penelitian yang telah dilaksanakan dapat disimpulkan bahwa pemberian POC asal limbah tumbuhan tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap serapan hara N dan P, tinggi tanaman, jumlah bintil akar, polong hampa, brangkasan kering tetapi berpengaruh nyata terhadap produksi perplot dan berat 100 biji.

Heavy metals are one of the most important pollutants released to the aquatic environment by the various industrial activities. The use of these wastewater for irrigation results accumulation of heavy metals in soil and plants. So, the present investigation deals with the various concentrations (0, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200 and 300 mg/l) of copper and zinc on germination studies of soybean. The different concentrations of copper and zinc were used for germination studies. The seedlings were allowed to grow upto seven days. The studied morphological traits increased at 5 mg/l concentration and these parameters are gradually decreased with the increase of copper and zinc concentrations.
