Bush Bean

A solid medium was developed for callus cultures originating from explants of root, hypocotyl, and cotyledon of seedlings of bush bean, and a liquid medium was developed for the growth of cell suspension cultures derived from the callus cultures. Some unsatisfactory media are recorded. Concentrations of mineral salts for cell suspension cultures are lower than for callus cultures. Both coconut milk and other organic substances are required for maximum growth. With cell suspensions the effect of deproteinized coconut milk is the same as that of raw coconut milk but, with callus cultures, deproteinized coconut milk gives greater yield. There are no obvious differences in yield of callus derived from root, hypocotyl, or cotyledon. Few differences in yield were obtained between cell suspension cultures from root, hypocotyl, and cotyledon but those from root gave the highest yield in dry weight. However, in the same medium, cells from the three origins are very similar in form and appearance. Some effects of different media on cell form and clumping are described. The yield in suspension culture is very high. Increase in cell number, fresh weight, and dry weight is about 100-fold in 12 days involving about six to seven divisions per cell.

High Yields

High yields of extracellular polysaccharide were obtained from cell suspension cultures of root, hypocotyl, and cotyledon of bush bean. Hydrolysates of the three polysaccharide samples contained the same sugars: galacturonic acid, galactose, glucose, mannose, arabinose, and xylose. The relative amounts of the six sugars were not the same in the hydrolysates from the three sources. The extracellular polysaccharide was produced at all times during the culture cycle. Semilogarithmic plots of increase in cell number, and production of extracellular polysaccharide, indicate that production per cell decreased during the logarithmic phase, and increased at the onset of the stationary phase. Production of extracellular polysaccharide, per culture and per cell, was much higher than that reported for other cell cultures of higher plants.

Cellular Aggregates

The paper discusses the growth of cell suspension cultures of <em>Amsonia tabernaemontana</em> Walter established from callus of hypocotyl origin. The cell number and growth increment were determined. Cellular aggregates developed well in the Wood and Braun (WB) medium with 1 mg/l NAA and 0.5 mg/l kinetin (growth increment 712.4). When the aggregates were cultured on WB media without NAA and kinetin or with 0.02 mg/l kinetin and 3 mg/l IAA, Toots developed an the aggregates. Examiination of the roots and cell suspensions indicates that the Toots are richer in alkaloids than the callus and cell suspensions.

Friable Callus

Silver nitrate (AgNO3) enhanced production of anthraquinone was standardized in cell suspension cultures of Gynochthodes umbellata, a plant mentioned in the Hortus Malabaricus. The present research investigates the effect of silver nitrate, an abiotic elicitor on production of anthraquinone in in vitro cell suspension cultures of G. umbellata. Friable callus culture was established using in vitro derived leaf segment obtained from the nodal explant culture maintained in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 2 mg/l benzyl amino purine (BAP) and 3% sucrose. The in vitro derived leaf segments (0.5cm2) were cultured on MS medium containing 1 mg/l 2,4-D and 2% glucose for the production of friable callus. After 30 days of culture, uniform yellow friable callus was inoculated into MS liquid medium containing 1 mg/l 2,4-D and 2 % glucose for raising suspension culture. Uniform cell suspension was transferred to same media constituents and treated with different concentrations of AgNO3 on 25th day of culture. Fresh weight, dry weight and accumulation of anthraquinone content was studied and found that AgNO3 caused a marginal increase in biomass and anthraquinone based on the concentration and duration of AgNO3 treatment. A maximum fresh weight (19.48 g/fwt) dry weight (1.92g/dwt) and highest amount of anthraquinone content (48.62 mg/gdwt) were recorded in MS medium supplemented with 1 mg/l 2,4-D, 2%glucose and 3.5µM AgNO3 after 72 hrs of incubation.

Bush Bean

Changes in cell number, cell size, fresh weight, and dry weight were recorded for the growth cycle of a serially subcultured cell suspension culture derived from hypocotyl of bush bean (var. Contender). The various cell types and growth patterns from single cells were also recorded. The culture showed unique features including a relatively sharp separation of a phase of exponential cell division from a phase of cell expansion. Complete separation of cell clumps gave a free cell culture, of viable cells, by day 16. The growth cycle, cell types, and growth patterns are compared with those in other plant cell suspension cultures. The potential value of the culture for study of growth regulation is discussed.

The effect of addition cytokinins and modification of sucrose concentration on growth and alkaloid canthinoneproduction in cell suspension cultures of Eurycoma longifilia Jack were studied. The additions of cytokines, BAand kinetin, show effect on the production of biomass and alkaloid in cell suspension of E. longifilia Jack. Theoptimum totals of two-alkaloids were obtained on addition 4.44 μM BAP and without kinetin, respectively. Theaddition of 4.44 μM BA (6-benzyladenine) into TAM medium stimulated increased total of 9-hydroxycanthine-6-one,but decreased total of 9-methoxycanthin-6-one. While the addition of 2.32 - 9.29 μM kinetin (6-furfurylaminopurine)into TAM medium decreased total of two alkaloids (from 0.582 mg to 0.461 - 0.257 mg per 25 ml medium). Whensucrose concentration in TAM medium was increased from 3% to 5%, production of biomass would increase from0.374 g to 0.585 g dry weight per 25 ml medium. While total of two-alkaloids increase from 0.328 mg to 0.441 mgper 25 ml medium when concentration of sucrose in TAM medium was increased from 3% to 4% sucrose.

Cell Volumes

An assessment was made of various parameters to measure growth of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr. ‘Wilkin’] and einkorn (Triticum monococcum L.) cell suspension cultures to establish convenient methods of screening the effects of chemicals. Methods assessed were settled cell volumes, packed cell volumes, absorbance at 525 nm of sonicated aliquots, dry weights (of aliquots or entire flask contents), and electrical conductivity and pH of the culture medium. Settled cell volumes, conductivity, and dry-weight changes were the most useful of the methods tested for determining the phytotoxicity of a nonionic linear alcohol ethylene oxide detergent (an adduct of 1-dodecanol containing eight ethylene oxide units) and the methyl ester of diclofop {2-[4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)phenoxy] propanoic acid}. Because 3 to 4 weeks were required to assess whether the cultures could grow out of the initial inhibition by the detergent or herbicide, none of the methods was rapid. Advantages and disadvantages of the various methods and their relative values for screening compounds are described.

Photomixotrophic cell suspension cultures of Ruta graveolens were qualitatively and quantita­tively analyzed by gaschromatography and mass spectroscopy for volatile compounds. The terpenoid hydrocarbons geijerene and pregeijerene, the C9-C13 methylketones and a series of aliphatic esters, respectively, were found as main constituents. The esters consisted of acetic acid, 2-methylbutyric acid and 3-methylbutyric acid which were esterified with straight chain or branched C8-C11 alcohols. The data are discussed in comparison to previous studies on callus cultures.

Lactase activity was detected in a&nbsp;culture medium of the cell suspension culture of watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris L.). A&nbsp;simple, rapid and reproducible procedure for identification of extracellular lactase is described using callus cultures of seedlings from the tested plant, hairy roots of 2.5 days old seedlings of watermelon germinating on agar plates as well as cell suspension cultures derived from callus cultures. For the determination of intracellular activities of lactase, 6-bromo-2-naphthyl-&beta;-D-galactopyranoside and p-nitrophenyl-&beta;-D-galactopyranoside were used as synthetic substrates. The extracellular lactase activity was determined by evaluating the day-zone in agar medium. The enzyme from watermelon callus cultures and seedling roots, cultivated on agar plates supplemented with 6-bromo-2-naphthyl-2-bromo-&beta;-D-galactopyranoside, hydrolyzed this substrate releasing 6-bromo-naphthyl. By simultaneous coupling with hexazonium p-rosaniline or Fast Blue BB the corresponding azo dye was formed. The parallel extracellular and intracellular activities were determined in cell suspension cultures derived from callus cultures. The results show a&nbsp;43.8% intracellular and 54.2% extracellular distribution of lactase activity. The described agar plate method enables a&nbsp;rapid, simple and specific detection of plant processes of extracellular lactase. &nbsp;

58 fungal elicitors prepared from the endophytic fungi isolated from inner bark of B. platyphylla Suk. were examined to determine their effects on the growth and triterpenoid production in suspension cultures of Betula platyphylla Suk. cells. The results showed that different fungal elicitors could cause diversely stimulating effects. Among the fungal elicitors tested, BE58 stimulated the highest triterpenoids yield with 15.90 mg•L-1 and 183.72% higher than the control. The experiment also affirmed from mRNA level that triterpenoid was indeed accumulated in suspension culture of birch cells treated by BE58 fungal elicitor. Meantime BE58 was identified as Phomopsis from the morphological and molecular level.
