Plant Regeneration from Protoplasts of Indica Rice

Indica 벼의 원형질체들로부터 식물체 재분화

An efficient protocol for plant regeneration from protoplasts of the indica rice variety IR43 has been developed. The procedure involved plating of embryogenic suspension-derived protoplasts on the surface of a filter membrane overlaying agarose-embedded feeder cells. Lolium multiflorum cell suspensions were preferable to these of Oryza ridleyi as feeder cells and Lolium suspensions supported colony formation from up to 0.68％ of the protoplasts, depending on the age of cell suspensions. Plant regeneration frequency was significantly improved by using maltose alone or in a 1:1(w/w) combination with sucrose as carbohydrate source and a simple dehydration treatment using a high concentration of agarose in the regeneration medium. Medium containing maltose or maltose mixed with sucrose increased the plant regeneration frequency compared with medium containing sucrose alone. The plant regeneration frequency was increased to 30.7 to 70.7％ following dehydration treatment, while the non-treated controls showed a regeneration frequency of 3.1 to 30.6％. Protoplast-derived plants were transferred to the glasshouse, flowered with morphologically normal.

Indica 벼의 원형질체들로 부터 효과적인 식물체 재분화 방법을 개발하였다. 이 방법은 배형성 진탕 세포 배양체로 부터 나출된 원형질체들을 feeder cell들이 agarose에 embedded된 배지 표면에 놓인 filter membrane 위에 배양하는 것이다. Feeder cell로서 Lolium multiflorum 세포배양체를 사용했을 때가 Oryza ridleyi를 사용했을 때보다 효과적이었고, 원형질체 평탄효율은 세포 배양체 age에 따라 달랐지만 최고로 0.68％ 까지 증가되었다. Carbohydrate source로서 maltose를 사용하거나 maltose와 sucrose를 1:1로 조합했을 때가 sucrose 단독으로 사용했을 때보다 식물체 재분화율이 증가되었고, 고농도의 agarose를 이용하여 원형질체로부터 유도된 캘러스를 dehydration시켰을 때 또한 재분화율이 괄목하게 증가되었다. 식물체 재분화율은 control 캘러스로부터 3.1∼30.6％ 였지만 dehydration처리한 캘러스로부터는 30.7∼70.7％까지 증가되었다. 원형질체로 부터 유도된 식물체들은 형태적으로 정상이며 개화했다.
