13.
Briefly explain the surface sterilization of explants.
14.
How the autoclaving is done for culture media?
15.
Compare Redifferentiation with Dedifferentiation.
1.
The specification part is narrative in which the subject matter of invention is described as how the invention was carried out.
The claim specifically defines the scope of the invention to be protected by the patent which the others may not practice.
2.
Cryopreservation, also known as Cryo-conservation, is a process by which protoplasts, cells, tissues, organelles, organs, extracellular matrix, enzymes or any other biological materials are subjected to preservation by cooling to very low temperature of -196°C using liquid nitrogen. At this extreme low temperature any enzymatic or chemical activity of the biological material will be totally stopped and this leads to preservation of material in dormant status. Later these materials can be activated by bringing to room temperature slowly for any experimental work.
3.
Germplasm conservation refers to the conservation of living genetic resources like pollen, seeds or tissue of plant material maintained for the purpose of selective plant breeding, preservation in live condition and used for many research works.
Germplasm conservation resources is a part of collection of seeds and pollen that are stored in seed or pollen banks, so as to maintain their viability and fertility for any later use such as hybridization and crop improvement. Germplasm conservation may also involve a gene bank and DNA bank of elite breeding lines of plant resources for the maintenance of biological diversity and also for food security.
4.
Artificial seeds or synthetic seeds (synseeds) are produced by using embryoids (somatic embryos) obtained through in vitro culture. They may even be derived from single cells from any part of the plant that later divide to form cell mass containing dense cytoplasm, large nucleus, starch grains, proteins, and oils, etc.
5.
Somaclonal variations: Somatic variations found in plants regenerated in vitro (i.e. variations found in leaf, stem, root, tuber or propagule).
Gametoclonal variations: Gametophytic variations found in plants regenerated in vitro gametic origin (i.e. variations found in gametes and gametophytes)
6.
Somatic embryogenesis is the formation of embryos from the callus tissue directly and these embryos are called Embryoids.
Applications:
1. Somatic embryogenesis provides potential plantlets which after hardening period can establish into plants.
2. Somatic ,embryoids can be used for the production of synthetic seeds.
7.
| Secondary Metabolites | Medicinal use |
| Capsaicin | Rheumatic pain treatment |
| Vincristine | Anti-carcinogenic |
| Quinine | Anti-malarial |
8.
Secondary metabolites are chemical compounds that are not required by the plant for normal growth and development but are produced in the plant as 'byproducts' of cell metabolism. For Example: Biosynthesis and isolation of indole alkaloids from Catharanthus roseus plant cell culture.
9.
The cell suspension is prepared by transferring a portion of callus to the liquid medium and agitated using rotary shaker instrument. The cells are separated from the callus tissue and used for cell suspension culture.
10.
After the inoculation of explant in the nutrient medium supplemented with auxins and incubated at 25°C ± 2°C in an alternate light and dark period of 12 hours with light intensity of 1000 lux, induces cell division leading to the development of callus from the surface of explant.
11.
Macronutrients:
(a) Ammonium nitrate
(b) Potassium nitrate
(c) Calcium chloride
Micronutrients:
(a) Manganese sulphate
(b) Zinc sulphate
(c) Potassium iodide
12.
The success of tissue culture lies in the composition of the growth medium, plant growth regulators and culture conditions such as temperature, pH, light and humidity.
13.
The plant materials to be used for tissue culture should be surface sterilized by first exposing the material in running tap water and then treating it in surface sterilization agents like 0.1% mercuric chloride, 70% ethanol under aseptic condition inside the Laminar Air Flow Chamber.
14.
Culture media are dispensed in glass containers, plugged with non-absorbent cotton or sealed with plastic closures and then sterilized using autoclave at 15 psi (121°C) for 15 to 30 minutes.
15.
| Redifferentiation | Dedifferentiation |
| A process by which an already differentiated cell undergo further differentiation to form another cell type | A process of reversion of cells (differentiated cells) to meristem state leading to callus formation is called dedifferentiation it. |
| Differentiated cell ➝ meristem state ➝ New cells | |
