interspecific or intergenus hybridization in sugarbeet (b. vulgaris l.) is usually failed due to non fertilization, embryo death or absence of connection between embryo and endosperm. consequently invitro embryo rescue technique is of value to save hybrid embryos before annihilation. sugar beet inter-specific crosses with wild species is impossible in classical breeding because of no chromosoma...

Embryo quality is crucial to the outcome of in vitro fertilization (IVF); however, the ability to precisely distinguish the embryos with higher reproductive potential from others is poor. Morphologic evaluation used to play an important role in assessing embryo quality, but it is somewhat subjective. The culture medium is the immediate environment of the embryos in vitro, and a change of the su...

frequency of somaclonal variation in embryogenic calli and plants of olea europaea l cv.kroneiki derived from somatic embryogenesis were examined by randomly amplified polymorphic dna (rapd) analysis. radicle and cotyledon (proximal part) of mature zygotic embryo were cultured in omc medium supplemented with iba (5 mgl-1) and 2-ip (0.5 mgl-1). somatic embryogenesis was induced in calli of radic...

mdash; Plant regeneration from immature intergeneric embryos through direct callus induction was investigated in the case of hybridization between T aestivum cv Chinese Spring (2n = 6x = 42, AABBDD) and A cristatum 4x with one B chromosome (2n = 4x = 28 + 1 B, PPPP). Twenty-three abnormal immature hybrid embryos were directly cultured on MS solid medium with 2 mg / L 2,4-D to induce calli which...

Rice (Oryza sativa cv. 5272) embryogenic calli were obtained from mature zygotic embryos culture on Murashige & Skoog (1962) medium supplemented with 2.5 mg/l 2,4dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. Histological analysis of somatic embryogenesis revealed that after two weeks of culture of explants on the callus induction medium, somatic embryo development began with a cluster of proembryogenic cells in ...

1. In a search for suitable tissues for the cultivation of yellow fever virus in vitro, mouse embryos were inoculated with this virus in utero. A titration for virus content of the various organs of the embryos indicated that the virus was present in the brain in greatest concentration. 2. Unmodified strains of yellow fever virus were readily adapted to cultivation in vitro in a medium consisti...

Embryogenesis in cotton is a difficult task due its genome dependency. We used 3 cotton cultivars (Khandwa-2, G. Cot. 10, and BC-68–2) and Coker-312 as control for regeneration. Efficient somatic embryogenesis was induced in agronomically important Indian cotton cultivars, Khandwa-2 and G. Cot. 10. For callusing in all the cultivars, different media combinations were tried. Embryogenesis was in...

Theoretical rates of annual genetic responses to selection in beef cattle were compared for conventional and multiple ovulation and embryo transfer (MOET) breeding schemes. Several combinations of replacement policy, mating ratio and type of selection were considered for both schemes with low, medium and high heritabilities. For MOET, four rates of embryo transfers per donor were used to repres...
