Somatic embryogenesis is the process by which somatic cells are induced into an embryogenic state, followed by differentiation into embryos. Somatic embryogenesis, in addition to being a method of propagation, can serve as an experimental tool for research into plant embryo development. This is a review of the current literature on in vitro plant somatic embryogenesis and the molecular advances made to identify genes expressed during the various stages of this process. Some factors hindering the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying somatic embryogenesis are discussed.L’embryogenèse somatique est le processus par lequel les cellules somatiques passent à l’état embryogène et se différencient en embryons. En plus de constituer une méthode de propagation, elle peut servir d’outil expérimental de recherche pour développer des embryons de plantes. Le présent document est une revue de la documentation sur l’embryogenèse somatique végétale in vitro et sur les progrès réalisés à l’échelle moléculaire pour identifier les gènes exprimés au cours des divers stades du processus. On examine aussi certains facteurs qui rendent difficile l’élucidation des mécanismes moléculaires de l’embryogenèse somatique.

Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is an important crop after wheat, corn, rice and barley. The aim of this research was to study morphological characterization of the plant population of grain sorghum cultivar CIAP 132R-05 regenerated via somatic embryogenesis under semi controlled conditions in green house.  Plants regenerated from somatic embryos were compared to plants grown from botanical seeds. Both populations of plants were characterized morphologically, taking in account quantitative traits (plant height (cm), stem diameter, number of active leaves per plant, limb length and width, number of active roots per plant, length of the roots (cm), fresh weight (gMF), foliar area (dm2), number of shoots per plant) and qualitative traits (albino or variegated plants, color of the leaves). Quantitative characteristics of both populations corresponded with those listed in the National Register of Commercial Varieties of Cuba. However; the population of plants derived from somatic embryos showed significantly higher values ​​for plant height, stem diameter, limb length and width, which may be associated with the physiological rejuvenation produced by the effect of in vitro culture. This allowed to determine the phenotypic stability of the regenerated plants via somatic embryogenesis, by assessing morphological characters in field conditions. The results can be applied to the in vitro propagation of elite plants selected as a product of conventional breeding programs and obtained through the use of different biotechnological methods.

<p>Protokol perbanyakan klonal yang efektif dan efisien sangat diperlukan untuk produksi benih berkualitas pada komersialisasi produk unggulan hasil pemuliaan. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mendapatkan protokol perbanyakan klonal Dendrobium ‘Balithi CF22-58’ melalui embriogenesis tidak langsung. Percobaan dilakukan di Laboratorium Kultur Jaringan Balai Penelitian Tanaman Hias dari bulan Januari hingga Desember 2017. Penelitian ini menekankan pada penggunaan  jenis eksplan, media, dan sistem kultur. Jenis eksplan yang diuji adalah tunas pucuk, tunas lateral, dan pangkal plantlet dengan tiga media inisiasi [½ Murashige and Skoog (MS) dikombinasikan dengan 1,5 mg/l thidiazuron (TDZ) dan 0,5 mg/l 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) (MI-1), 2,5 mg/l metathopolin (mT) dan 0,05 mg/l BAP (MI-2), dan 5 mg/l mT dan 0,05 mg/l BAP (MI-3)]; empat media proliferasi, yaitu ½ MS dengan kombinasi: MP-1 (0,75 mg/l TDZ + 0,25 mg/l BAP), MP-2 (1,5 mg/l TDZ + 0,5 mg/l BAP), MP-3 (2,5 mg/l mT + 0,05 mg/l BAP), dan MP-4 (5,0 mg/l+ 0,05 mg/l BAP); dua sistem kultur (padat dan cair); dan tiga media regenerasi MPP-1 (½ MS dengan vitamin penuh (1/2 MS-FV) + 2% charcoal); MPP-2 (½ MS-FV); dan MPP-3 (2 g/l Rosasol 18:18:18 TE). Percobaan disusun menggunakan rancangan acak kelompok faktorial dengan lima ulangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa inisiasi kalus embriogenik (KE) tertinggi, yaitu 38,3% dengan waktu inisiasi 16,8 hari dihasilkan dari eksplan pangkal plantlet pada medium MI-1. Medium MP-2 dan sistem kultur cair mampu mempertahankan proliferasi KE sampai 83,1% dengan rasio penggandaan 3,23 kali. Perkecambahan embrio terbaik sampai 86,9% embrio berkecambah dengan 18,2 kecambah per rumpun dalam waktu 21,3 hari, ditunjukkan pada medium MPP-1, sedangkan pembesaran plantlet terbaik mencapai tinggi plantlet sampai 5 cm, jumlah daun hingga 4,9 helai, dan jumlah akar  2,8, dengan  2,6 cm panjang akar dan 0,27 g bobot basah plantlet, diperoleh pada medium MPP-3. Perbanyakan anggrek dengan protokol ini diperkirakan dapat menghasilkan sekitar 3.000–4.000 plantlet/eksplan/tahun. Protokol hasil penelitian ini sangat potensial diaplikasikan pada perbanyakan klonal Dendrobium melalui kultur jaringan. </p><p><strong>Keywords</strong></p><p><em>Dendrobium</em>; Embriogenesis somatik; Perbanyakan masal; Proliferasi;  Sistem kultur  </p><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>The effective and efficient clonal propagation protocol is significantly needed for producing qualified seedling for commercialization of superior breeding products. The objective of the study was to establish clonal propagation protocol for Dendrobium ‘Balithi CF22-58’ via indirect somatic embryogenesis. The study was conducted at the Tissue Culture Laboratory in Indonesian Ornamental Crops Research Institute from January to December 2017. The study emphasized to utilize explant source, culture media, and culture system. Explant types were shoot tip, lateral shoot, and basal part of plantlets; three initiation media [half strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 1.5 mg/l thidiazuron (TDZ) and 0.5 mg/l 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) (MI-1), 2.5 mg/l metathopolin (mT) and 0.05 mg/l BAP (MI-2), and 5 mg/l mT and 0.05 mg/l BAP (MI-3)]; four proliferation media (half strength MS medium supplemented with: MP-1 (0.75 mg/l TDZ and 0.25 mg/l BAP), MP-2 (1.5 mg/l TDZ and 0.5 mg/l BAP), MP-3 (2.5 mg/l mT and 0,05 mg/l BAP), and MP-4 (5.0 mg/l and 0.05 mg/l BAP); two culture system were solid and liquid; and three  regeneration media viz, MPP-1 (half strength MS medium with full vitamin and 2% activated charcoal); MPP-2 (MR-1 activated charcoal free), and MPP-3 (2 g/l Rosasol 18:18:18 TE). These experiments were arranged using a factorial randomized complete block design with five replications. Results of the study revealed that the highest initiation rate of embryogenic callus (EC) was up to 38.3% in 16.8 days after culture. The EC was regenerated from a basal part on MI-1 medium,  MP-2 medium and liquid culture system were able to maintain proliferation of embryogenic callus up to 83.1% with 3.23 multiplication rate. The best embryo germination up to 86.9% with 18.2 germinated embryos per clump within 21.3 days was determined on MPP-1 medium. While the best plantlet performances with 5 cm height of plantlets, 4.9 number of leaves, 2.8 number of roots, 2.6 cm root length, and 0.27 g plantlet fresh weight was obtained MPP-3 medium. With this propagation protocol, 3,000 - 4,000 plantlets/explant/year can be produced. Results of the study have high potential to be applied for in vitro propagation of Dendrobiums.</p>

AbstractThe development of techniques for somatic embryogenesis in conifers has led to rapid advances in the ability to culture conifer tissuein vitro.Somatic embryogenesis now provides a means to clonally propagate commercially valuable conifers of several species and offers anin vitroexperimental system for studying embryogenesis. As a result of these developments, the conifer zygotic and somatic embryo system has recently attracted the attention not only of the cell biologist but also of biochemists and molecular biologists. In this review I have attempted to consolidate the recent information on ultrastructure, biochemical and molecular aspects of conifer zygotic and somatic embryogenesis. In the first section, salient features of zygotic embryogenesis are highlighted followed by biochemical and ultrastructural characterization of development with reference to storage reserve deposition. In the second section, detailed characterization of seed storage proteins, changes in gene expression with emphasis on storage protein genes and Lea genes during zygotic and somatic embryogenesis are described. Effect of culture treatments such as abscisic acid, osmoticum and desiccation on storage protein gene expression in somatic embryos is discussed. Based on these studies, comparisons are presented between angiosperm and gymnosperm embryogeny regarding the unique morphological and developmental patterns of conifer embryogenesis. Finally, a brief discussion of recent progress in biochemical and molecular characterization of conifer seed germination is presented.
