Abstract

Detection of Potyvirus using Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) and Antigen Coated Plate-Enzyme Linked Immunoabsorbent Assay (ACP-ELISA) for Dioscorea alata, D. hispida and D. esculenta was conducted in order to establish in vitro culture of virus-free of these species. Plants were collected from Yogyakarta, Lampung, Pasuruan, Jakarta and Bogor. Total RNA of plants grown in a greenhouse was then isolated according to Simple Direct Tube (SDT) method. Total RNA from symptomatic leaf of Yard Long Bean (Vigna unguiculata) infected with Bean Common Mosaic Potyvirus (BCMV) was used as the positive control treatment. RT-PCR assay with degenerate primers MJ1(F) and MJ2(R) was used to identify the Potyviruses infecting Dioscorea. ACP-ELISA with antibodies specific to group Potyvirus was carried out to detect Potyvirus from leaves samples. The Dioscorea virus-free species was then cultured on modified MS medium. Shoot tips or internodes were used as explants. The results showed that using both RT-PCR and ACP-ELISA, all species tested were free from virus. The growth response of explants on MS medium was varied depending on the plant species and the concentration of BAP.   Keywords: Dioscorea spp., Potyvirus, RT-PCR, ACP-ELISA, in vitro shoot multiplication

Abstract

Tuber of purple yam (Dioscorea alata L.) has been used as an alternative food in some areas in Indonesia. The tuber contains high carbohydrate, has low glycemic index and is gluten free. Therefore, study on genetic improvement of this species needs to be carried out in order to increase its productivity and to find out new cultivars which can be cultivated in marginal lands. This research was aimed to investigate the effect of NaCl concentration on growth and proline content of purple yam grown in vitro. Shoot tips were cultured on MS (Murashige and Skoog) medium supplemented with NaCl at concentrations of 25; 50; 100; 200 and 250 mM. After six weeks in culture, height of shoots, number of nodes, number of leaves, as well as proline content were recorded. The results showed that shoots grown on MS medium supplemented with NaCl at 25 and 50 mM had better growth compared to control. The best medium for its growth was MS containing 50 mM of NaCl. An increase in NaCl level resulted in decrease of growth. The LD50 value was obtained at 183 mM of NaCl. The highest proline concentration was achieved by shoots grown on the medium supplemented with 100 mM of NaCl. This result indicated that purple yam was tolerant to the increase of NaCl concentration up to 100 mM on MS medium without addition of plant growth regulators. Keywords: purple yam, Discorea alata L., NaCl, in vitro growth, proline content.

Abstract

Tetraploid citrus are important for interploidal hybridization to create triploid seedless citrus.  Colchicine is the most commonly used as antimitotic agent to induce polyploid plants.  Tetraploid induction by colchicine in Pummelo ‘Nambangan’ was conducted in vitro using different types of explants.  The aim of this research was to induce tetraploid pummelo ‘Nambangan’ by colchicine treatment using germinated seed, shoot tip and cotyledonary node as explants.  Tetraploid shoot induction was conducted by soaking germinated seeds, shoot tips and cotyledonary nodes in 0.1% colchicine for 1, 3 and 5 h.  Regenerant shoots were grown on MS medium and their growth was observed after four weeks in culture.  Ploidy level was determined using flow cytometry analysis.  Stomata density, length and width of stomatal guard cell were also recorded. The results showed that shoot elongation was inhibited by colchicine treatment.  Soaking of shoot tip explants in 0.1% colchicine for 1 h resulted in 66.66% of putative tetraploid shoots.  Compared to diploid shoots, tetraploids had lower stomata density but bigger in guard cell size. Keywords: colchicine, tetraploid, pummelo (Citrus maxima (Burm.)
