(DD, 2n=14). An essential prerequisite for this evolutionary step is that the natural hybrids between tetraploid wheat and diploid Aegilops tauschii can produce relatively many filled seeds which germinated well. In this study, without special techniques, e.g. immature embryo culture, out of 22 Ae. tauschii accessions, the genotype AS60 produced relatively many filled seeds which germinated well. The seed germination percentages in the crosses of Ae. tauschii ×tetraploid wheat, tetraploid wheat× Ae. tauschii and Ae. tauschii ×common wheat were, respectively, 50.0%, 57.1% and 45.5%. It seems that Ae. tauschii accession AS60 has a unique genotype which facilitate hybrid seed development and viability, and which meets with the prerequisite for wheat evolutionary. Furthermore, the significance of this finding for common wheat improvement and evolution was discussed.展开更多
The line of T240-6 was selected from 32 SC 2 lines of immature embryo culture of T240 (common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)× Wheat-Haynaldia villosa (L.)

Schur. 6D/6V substitution line) through powdery mildew characterization, glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) enzyme and gliadin (Gli) analyses and in situ hybridization. All of the individual plants resistant to powdery mildew lacked the locus of GOT at 6VL arm (GOT-V 2) and had gliadin locus at 6VS arm (Gli-V 2) of Haynaldia villosa. All the plants resistant to powdery mildew had one or two telocentric chromosomes that did not pair with wheat chromosomes but paired between themselves. T240-6 was identified as a telocentric line through in situ hybridization.展开更多

The orthogonal experiments, in-cluding the selection of basal medium, embryo age and other factors such as sugar, benzyladenine (BA), naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and glutamine (Gln), were carried out. The results indicated that the optimal medium for embryo culture was Monnier medium supplemented with NAA (0.001 mgL-1), BA (0.1 mgL-1), sugar (50 gL-1), and Gln (400 mgL-1), with a germination rate of 91.7% at least; the optimal embryo age was 50 d; and Gln had significant effects on the germination rate of embryo. Moreover, the optimal medium for subculture was MS+BA (2 mgL-1)+NAA (0.001 mgL-1)+Gln (0.5 mgL-1), with the propaga-tion coefficient of 3.6 at least.展开更多

However, the difference in the dedifferentiation frequency of immature embryos among various genotypes indicates that callus induction and genetic transformation is dependent on the genotype. This phenomenon is an impediment in the fundamental process of improving tropical maize germplasm especially through genetic engineering. Here, five tropical maize （Zea mays L.） genotypes, CML 216, CML 144, A 04, E 04 and TL 21, were evaluated for callus induction on MS medium supplemented with the growth regulator dicamba. Embryogenic and non embryogenic callus induction was independent ofgenotype when young immature embryos, 12 days after pollination （DAP） were used for tissue culture in combination with dicamba. The optimal concentration of dicamba for induction ofembryogenic callus in all the genotypes was 3 mg/L, which was also the concentration at which non embryogenic callus formation was lowest. The frequency of embryogenic callus induction ranged from 35% to 79% among the five genotypes and somatic embryos regenerated R0 shoots that produced normal R1 progenies. This regeneration method is expected to facilitate the development of a more efficient genotype independent Agrobacterium- mediated transformation system for tropical inbred lines.展开更多
