This work aimed to evaluate the influence of naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and gibberellic acid (GA3) plant regulators in in vitro etiolation and subsequent regeneration of the PE x SC-60 pineapple hybrid. Nodal segments of in vitro plants with approximately 5-7 cm height were incubated in basic MS culture medium supplemented with 0.0; 0.5 and 1.0 mg L-1 of naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) in combination with gibberellic acid (GA3) in concentrations of 0.0; 0.5 and 1.0 mg L-1, and maintained at 27 ºC under dark condition. Evaluations were carried out at 90 and 180 days after incubation period. The best results for length of etiolated stems were obtained with 1.0 mg L-1 of NAA. In the experiment followed by the regeneration, stems with 3 cm from the etiolation treatment, were cultivated in proliferation medium and the number of regenerated plants per treatment was evaluated at 60 days of cultivation. The treatment that promoted the best etiolation of plants also promoted the worst regeneration rates, demonstrating the residual effect of the auxin used in the previous step in the regeneration of plants of the pineapple hybrid evaluated.

RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência da esterilização química do meio de cultura e de agentes geleificantes alternativos e sua influência no desenvolvimento in vitro e ex vitro de plantas de abacaxizeiro ‘Vitória’. O meio de cultivo utilizado foi composto pelos sais do MS e vitaminas de White, com 30 g L-1 de sacarose e 100 mg L-1 de mioinositol. Foram realizadas duasformas de esterilização dos meios de cultivo e das vidrarias: em autoclave a 121°C e com solução de hipoclorito de sódio (NaClO) a 0,003% para enxágue das vidrarias e 0,0003% no meio de cultivo. Os agentesgeleificantes testados foram: M1: ágar (6,0 g L-1); M2: amido de milho (60,0 g L-1); M3: ágar (3,0 g L-1) + amido de milho (30,0 g L-1) e M4: ágar (3,0 g L-1) + amido de mandioca (30,0 g L-1). Após 30 dias de cultivo in vitro, constatou-se que o NaClO e os agentes geleificantes alternativos não interferiram nocrescimento e no desenvolvimento das mudas. Parte das mudas de cada tratamento foi aclimatizada durante 90 dias,após os quais se verificou que não houve influência dos agentes geleificantes no crescimento destas, e,para a maioria dos parâmetros avaliados, as mudas oriundas dos tratamentos envolvendo a esterilização química apresentaram resultados semelhantes ou superiores às dos meios autoclavados.

Hyptis marrubioides Epling is a native plant from Brazilian Cerrado. In this paper, the response of in vitro microplants of this species to inoculation with bacterial and fungal endophytic isolates is evaluated. HPLC-DAD analysis showed the presence of 3,4-O-(Z)-dicaffeoylquinic acid and quercetin-7-O-glucoside as the main components. GC/MS analysis demonstrated that the sesquiterpenes τ-cadinol and caryophyllene oxide were only produced in microplants inoculated with endophytic bacteria, while methyl hexadecanoate, methyl heptadecanoate and methyl (Z,Z,Z) 9,12,15-octadecatrienoate and the triterpene methyl 3β-hydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oate were overexpressed only when the microplant was treated with endophytic fungi.

This study was conducted in order to verify the effect of different concentrations of BMP-7 in the in vitro survival and development of caprine preantral follicles. Fragments of caprine ovarian cortical tissue were cultured for 1 or 7 days in Minimum Essential Medium (MEM+) supplemented with different concentrations of BMP-7 (1, 10, 50 or 100ng/ml). Non-cultured fragments or those cultured for 1 or 7 days were processed for classical histology and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Parameters such as follicular survival, activation and growth were evaluated. The results showed that, after 1 or 7 days of culture, the percentage of morphologically normal follicles was significantly reduced in all treatments when compared with fresh control, except at 1ng/ml of BMP-7 for 1 day. In addition, the concentration of 10ng/ml of BMP-7 significantly increases follicular diameter from day 1 to 7 of culture. There was no influence of the other concentrations of BMP-7 regarding to the follicular and oocyte diameter. Ultrastructure studies confirmed follicular integrity after 7 days of culture in 1ng/ml BMP-7. In conclusion, small concentrations of BMP-7 can improve the survival and growth of caprine preantral follicles during in vitro culture.

O estudo in vitro foi realizado a partir de sementes de S. allagophylla, colhidas de plantas crescidas na Reserva Biológica de Moji-Guaçu. Foram testadas duas interfaces da adaptação desta espécie às condições do cerrado: efeito do pH e das concentrações de nutrientes, utilizando o meio básico de Murashige & Skoog (MS) e o de Gamborg et al. (B5). Modificações do meio MS foram feitas em relação ao pH, com um gradiente de valores iniciais, indo do 4,2 ao 5,8 (intervalos de 0,2), e em relação aos nutrientes KNO3, KH2PO4 e MgSO4.7H2O, com concentrações progressivamente menores destes. Quanto ao meio B5 foi testada a composição nutricional nas concentrações totais e reduzidas à metade (B5 50%). Os resultados mostraram que as adaptações desta espécie do cerrado in vitro foram: todos os explantes, independente do valor inicial do pH, acidificaram o meio e o crescimento foi mais favorável em meios com menores valores iniciais de pH; o crescimento não foi afetado pela diminuição da concentração de nitrato e a redução da composição nutricional do meio B5 até promoveu o crescimento, principalmente quanto à expansão foliar; o crescimento foi similar tanto na presença como na ausência total de KH2PO4 e de MgSO4.7H2O (em relação ao meio MS). Estes resultados são consistentes com o conceito de uma planta bem adaptada em absorver nutrientes de solos de cerrado, solos estes ácidos, pobres em nutrientes e ricos em alumínio.

The objective of the present study was to examine the effect of green tea polyphenols (GTPs) supplementation during in vitro maturation, in vitro fertilization, and in vitro culture on the developmental competence of bovine oocytes. Cumulus-oocyte complexes aspirated from the ovaries were matured in vitro (38.5ºC for 24 h) and fertilized (38.5ºC for 15-18 h) and embryos were cultured (38.5ºC for 192 h) in a defined conditioned medium with or without GTPs supplementation. The GTPs used in the present study contained 99% catechin derivatives, with the major components being 50% (-)-epigallocatechin gallate, 22% (-)-epicatechin gallate, 18% (-)-epigallocatechin, and 10% (-)-epicatechin. Four replicate trials were done for each type of experiment. GTPs supplementation (15 µM) of the maturation medium led to a significant increase in the rate of blastocyst formation (34.0 vs 21.4%, P < 0.05). However, the rate of blastocyst formation was not improved when higher GTPs concentrations (20 or 25 µM) were added to the in vitro maturation medium. During in vitro fertilization, supplementation with higher GTPs concentrations (20 or 25 µM) significantly reduced the rate of blastocyst formation (P < 0.05). Supplementation of the culture medium with 15 µM GTPs improved the rate of blastocyst formation, while higher GTPs concentrations (25 µM) significantly reduced embryo development (P < 0.05). In conclusion, these results demonstrate that supplementation with GTPs at low concentration (15 µM) during in vitro maturation and in vitro culture improved the developmental competence of bovine oocytes.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of GDF-9, IGF-I, and GH alone or combined on preantral follicle survival, activation and development after 1 and 7 days of in vitro culture. Either fresh (non-cultured) or cultured ovarian tissue was processed for histological and fluorescence analysis. For all media tested, the percent of normal follicles was greater when compared to minimum essential medium supplemented (MEM+) alone, except when ovarian tissue was cultured with GDF-9/IGF-I or GDF-9/GH (P < 0.05). Fluorescence analysis showed that the percent of viable follicles after 7 days of culture was similar for non-cultured tissue and for all treatments tested. The percent of primordial follicles was reduced (P < 0.05) and there was a significant and concomitant increase in the percent of intermediate and primary follicles in all treatments tested after 7 days of culture when compared to non-cultured tissue. After 7 days of culture, the highest percent of intermediate follicles was observed with IGF-I/GH (61.3%), and the highest percent of primary follicles was achieved with IGF-I (57.7%). After 7 days of culture in MEM+ containing GDF-9, IGF-I and GH alone or in all associations, a significant increase in follicular diameter was observed when compared to MEM+ alone and non-cultured tissue. In conclusion, GDF-9, IGF-I and GH alone or in combination maintain preantral follicle survival and promote primordial follicle activation. Nevertheless, the data showed that IGF-I/GH and IGF-I alone are efficient in promoting the transition from primordial to intermediate follicles and from intermediate to primary follicles, respectively.

Le muscle lisse endobronchique est l’un des acteurs principaux de l’asthme. La description de ces caractéristiques phénotypiques reste cependant très elliptique, notamment à cause de la difficulté inhérente à l’échantillonnage. Le cheval offre un large champ d’investigation en raison de sa taille et un modèle d’asthme pertinent en regard de la similitude entre asthme et souffle. La technique de culture et de caractérisation du muscle lisse a été mise au point à partir de muscle lisse trachéal. Ce modèle a ensuite été transposé et réalisé à partir de biopsies endobronchiques chez le cheval. Les cellules du muscle lisse ont été isolées, mises en culture puis caractérisées par immunofluorescence, cytométrie de flux et immunobuvardage. Le maintien du phénotype contractile en culture restant un défi dans l’établissement d’un modèle d’asthme réaliste. Suite à l’isolement des cellules musculaires lisses à partir de muscle lisse trachéal équin et leur mise en culture en présence de 10% de FBS pendant 7 passages, 96.4% des cellules expriment l’α-smooth muscle-actine (α-sm-actine), tandis que 83.8% et 77% expriment la desmine et la myosine respectivement. Les cellules musculaires lisses issues de biopsies endobronchiques expriment après 7 passages à 84% l’α-sm-actine, à 57% la desmine et 69% la myosine. Ces résultats ont été obtenus par immunofluorescence et immunobuvardage. Le pourcentage de cellules exprimant les protéines d’intérêt, tout comme l’intensité moyenne de fluorescence ne présentent pas de variation significative ni entre le 4ième et le 7ième passage, ni avec la caractérisation initiale, lors du premier passage. Cette étude suggère qu’il est possible de maintenir le phénotype contractile en culture sur plastique en présence de 10% de FBS, et que les biopsies endobronchiques sont un support d’étude valable pour de futures investigations concernant le rôle du muscle lisse et ses caractéristiques.

Knowledge of the molecular biological changes underlying the process of embryogenesis is important for the improvement of somatic embryogenesis of coconut. Among the transcription factors that control the transition from vegetative to embryogenic growth, members of APETALA2/Ethylene-responsive element binding protein domain family play an important role in promoting embryo development. Significant insights into the role of AP2 genes have been obtained by the ectopic expression of AP2 sub family genes in transgenic Arabidopsis. A homolog of the AINTEGUMENTA-like gene that encodes the two AP2 domains and the linker region was identified in the coconut genome. Phylogenetic analysis showed that this gene, CnANT, encodes a protein that branched with BABY BOOM/PLETHORA clade in the AINTEGUMENTA-like major clade and was similar to the oil palm EgAP2-1 protein. According to real time RT-PCR results, higher expression of CnANT was observed in more mature zygotic embryos. Also, high CnANT expression was recorded in embryogenic callus compared to other stages of somatic embryogenesis. We examined the effect of ectopic CnANT expression on the development and regenerative capacity of transgenic Arabidopsis. Overexpression of CnANT in Arabidopsis induced hormone free regeneration of explants. Furthermore, ectopic expression of CnANT enhanced regeneration in vitro and suggested a role for this gene in cell proliferation during in vitro culture.

Background Somatic embryogenesis (SE) in plants is a process by which embryos are generated directly from somatic cells, rather than from the fused products of male and female gametes. Despite the detailed expression analysis of several somatic-to-embryonic marker genes, a comprehensive understanding of SE at a molecular level is still lacking. The present study was designed to generate high resolution transcriptome datasets for early SE providing the way for future research to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms that regulate this process. We sequenced Arabidopsis thaliana somatic embryos collected from three distinct developmental time-points (5, 10 and 15 d after in vitro culture) using the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. Results This study yielded a total of 426,001,826 sequence reads mapped to 26,520 genes in the A. thaliana reference genome. Analysis of embryonic cultures after 5 and 10 d showed differential expression of 1,195 genes; these included 778 genes that were more highly expressed after 5 d as compared to 10 d. Moreover, 1,718 genes were differentially expressed in embryonic cultures between 10 and 15 d. Our data also showed at least eight different expression patterns during early SE; the majority of genes are transcriptionally more active in embryos after 5 d. Comparison of transcriptomes derived from somatic embryos and leaf tissues revealed that at least 4,951 genes are transcriptionally more active in embryos than in the leaf; increased expression of genes involved in DNA cytosine methylation and histone deacetylation were noted in embryogenic tissues. In silico expression analysis based on microarray data found that approximately 5% of these genes are transcriptionally more active in somatic embryos than in actively dividing callus and non-dividing leaf tissues. Moreover, this identified 49 genes expressed at a higher level in somatic embryos than in other tissues. This included several genes with unknown function, as well as others related to oxidative and osmotic stress, and auxin signalling. Conclusions The transcriptome information provided here will form the foundation for future research on genetic and epigenetic control of plant embryogenesis at a molecular level. In follow-up studies, these data could be used to construct a regulatory network for SE; the genes more highly expressed in somatic embryos than in vegetative tissues can be considered as potential candidates to validate these networks.

Avaliou-se o desenvolvimento de folículos pré-antrais ovinos após o cultivo in vitro do córtex ovariano em várias concentrações de ácido 3-indol acético (IAA). O córtex ovariano foi dividido em fragmentos de aproximadamente 3×3mm. Um fragmento foi imediatamente fixado em Bouin (controle - dia 0) e os demais destinados ao cultivo por dois ou seis dias em meio essencial mínimo (MEM+) acrescido de 10, 40, 100, 500 ou 1000ng/ml de IAA. Após o cultivo in vitro, não houve variação entre folículos dos tratamentos e folículos-controle, exceto nos suplementados com 40ng/ml de IAA. Nestes observaram-se redução de folículos primordiais e aumento de folículos em desenvolvimento (P<0,05). em relação aos folículos do grupo-controle, houve redução de pré-antrais normais no cultivo de seis dias (P<0,05). Após dois dias de cultivo, a redução foi observada somente nos folículos suplementados com 500 ou 1000ng/ml de IAA. Folículos pré-antrais ovinos podem ser ativados in vitro com sucesso após o cultivo em MEM+ suplementado com 40ng/ml de IAA.
