Polyethylene glycol effects on somatic embryogenesis of papaya hybrid UENF/CALIMAN 01 seeds

Abstract: Among commercial fruits, papaya (Carica papaya L.) is notably one of the most common ones around the world. The aim of the current study was to establish a somatic embryogenesis protocol for the hybrid UENF/CALIMAN 01, elucidating the effects of ). The 60 g L -1 PEG treatment group had the highest average for the number, maturation and conversion of somatic embryos that resulted in plantlets at the end of the process. The addition of PEG to MS medium led to increased protein synthesis. These results are unprec… Show more

“…Studies have described the ability of PEG to increase the osmolarity of the medium and increase the frequency of somatic embryo induction (Castillón and Kamo 2002, Vooková and Kormuták 2002, Steiner et al 2005, Alkhateeb 2006, Calic-Dragosavac et al 2010, Vale et al 2014. The results achieved with PEG may be related to the non-plasmolyzing osmotic effect of this compound: PEG may be able to induce water stress even if no water actually enters the plant cell (Alkhateeb 2006), and lead to an increased protein synthesis (Heringer et al 2013, Vale et al 2014. ABA has been widely used in maturation medium because it can induce the final development of the embryo through the accumulation of LEA proteins (late embryogenesis abundant), related to the maintenance of desiccation tolerance (Dodeman et al 1997, Capelle et al 2010, stimulate the storage of reserve substances (Gutmann et al 1996, Sholi et al 2009) and prevent precocious germination (von Arnold et al 2002).…”

“…The genotype may influence the variation of embryogenic responses during the induction and maturation phase in plant tissue (Bell et al 1993). In addition, factors such as the type and concentration of auxin (Anandan et al 2012), the type of explant (Capelo et al 2011), presence or absence of abscisic acid (Bell et al 1993), activated carbon (López-Pérez et al 2005) or osmotic substances (Heringer et al 2013) can alter the responses among genotypes.…”

“…This approach has also been used in our research on both spruce species, but its effectiveness was found to differ between ET lines (Hazubska & Szczygieł, 2003). Many studies have indicated that PEG is an inducer of both somatic embryo maturation and the conversion of somatic embryos into functional seedlings (Heringer et al, 2013). Supplementing a culture medium with PEG, a non-permeating osmoticum, simulates the water stress that occurs during normal seed development and this is believed to affect somatic embryo maturation (Heringer et al, 2013;Koehler et al, 2013).…”

“…Osmotic stress in cultures of conifer tissues can be induced by the use of several compounds, such as amino acids, mannitol, or dextran. The addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG) to the maturation medium, however, has become the most common method used to stimulate embryo maturation (Belmonte et al, 2005;Heringer et al, 2013;Hudec et al, 2016). PEG is a non-permeating osmoticum that increases desiccation tolerance and induces the deposition of storage proteins in cells (Attree et al, 1991;Misra et al, 1993;Heringer et al, 2013).…”
