 The technique of in vitro propagation of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi has been developed over the past few decades and opens up areas of studying plant-fungi interactions. It is a scientific break through, especially for the study of the Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, since these obligate symbionts depend on host plant. The objective of this paper is to find out the in vitro culture of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi using Root Organ Culture technique. Ascertain of root colonization of these fungi could be affected in vitro without undertaking complex and complicated culture conditions. This could form an economically viable technique for root organ culture of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

Vesicular–arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi are obligate symbionts, and a primary benefit provided to the host is the alleviation of stress. The recalcitrance of these fungi to grow in pure culture has spurred researchers to develop an alternative form of cultivation, namely the root organ culture (ROC). This synthetic form of production is new and efforts were made to use randomly amplified polymorphic DNA with the M13 minisatellite sequence as the polymerase chain reaction primer to look into polymorphism, if any, in the spores of Gigaspora margarita produced both in vitro and in situ (soil). The fingerprint patterns obtained from in vitro and in situ spores were similar. Extramatrical structures, such as auxiliary cells, were also examined by DNA fingerprinting. Their amplification pattern did not vary from the mother or daughter spores. A few interesting observations were made. For instance, the mother spore, which seemed hollow and inactive after germination, nevertheless contained nuclei after 4 months under in vitro conditions and generated a fingerprint pattern. The fingerprint pattern for Gigaspora margarita was different from that of Gigaspora gigantea, indicating that the minisatellite sequence could be exploited for identifying VAM fungi. ROC appears to be a truly representative system, in the sense that it mimics the essential features of the complex rhizosphere, allowing the fungi to complete their life cycle without any induced genetic changes per se. Key words : root organ culture, arbuscular mycorrhiza, M13 minisatellite sequence, randomly amplified polymorphic DNA.

ABSTRACT There are several in vitro methods to analyse the function of the adenohypophysis or the mechanisms of its regulation. The present paper deals with single cell culture, organ culture and short term incubation techniques by which the morphology and gonadotrophin-secreting function of the adenohypophysis were studied. In trypsin-dispersed cell culture, the adenohypophysial cells showed extensive propagation to form numerous cell colonies and finally develop into a confluent monolayer cell sheet covering completely the surface of culture vessels. Almost all of the cultured cells, however, became chromophobic, at least at the end of the first week of cultivation, when gonadotrophin was detectable neither in the culture medium nor in the cells themselves. After the addition of the hypothalamic extract, gonadotrophin became detectable again, and basophilic or PAS-positive granules also reappeared within the cells, suggesting that the gonadotrophs were stimulated by the extract to produce gonadotrophin. In organ culture and short term incubation, the incorporation of [3H] leucine into the adenohypophysial cells in relation to the addition of hypothalamic extract was examined. It was obvious that the ability to incorporate [3H] leucine into the gonadotrophs in vitro was highly dependent upon the presence of the hypothalamic extract.

Abstract Background A plant growth-promoting endophytic bacterium PVL1 isolated from the leaf of Vanda cristata has the ability to colonize with roots of plants and protect the plant. PVL1 was isolated using laboratory synthetic media. 16S rRNA gene sequencing method has been employed for identification before and after root colonization ability. Results Original isolated and remunerated strain from colonized roots were identified as Bacillus spp. as per EzBiocloud database. The presence of bacteria in the root section of the plantlet was confirmed through Epifluorescence microscopy of colonized roots. The in-vitro plantlet colonized by PVL1 as well as DLMB attained higher growth than the control. PVL1 capable of producing plant beneficial phytohormone under in vitro cultivation. HPLC and GC-MS analysis suggest that colonized plants contain Indole Acetic Acid (IAA). The methanol extract of Bacillus spp., contains 0.015 μg in 1 μl concentration of IAA. PVL1 has the ability to produce antimicrobial compounds such as ethyl iso-allocholate, which exhibits immune restoring property. One-way ANOVA shows that results were statistically significant at P ≤ 0.05 level. Conclusions Hence, it has been concluded that Bacillus spp. PVL1 can promote plant growth through secretion of IAA during root colonization and ethyl iso-allocholate to protect plants from foreign infections. Thus, this study supports to support Koch’s postulates of bacteria establishment.
