Somatic hybridization in the genus Solanum: S. tuberosum and S. brevidens

Abstract: Somatic hybrid plants were regenerated from fused mesophyll protoplasts of an albino potato (Solanum tuberosum spp. tuberosum) variant and Solanum brevidens, a non-tuber bearing species which is sexually incompatible with S. tuberosum. These somatic hybrid plants represent the first example of direct hybridization between potato and members of the taxonomic group Etuberosa, and offer the potential for introgressing valuable germplasm from Solanum species outside the sexually compatible range into a worldwide c… Show more

“…During the present hybrid selection procedures, elimination of radish chromosomes and cabbage chloroplasts was found to occur. The somatic hybrid plants between sexually incompatible species flowered but non-viable pollen grains were produced (Shepard et al, 1983;Barsby et al, 1984;Fig. 2.…”

“…Somatic potato hybrids have been produced by fusion of diploid wild species with tetraploid S. tuberosum (Barsby et al, 1984;Austin et al, 1993;Cardi et al, 1993;) or with dihaploid S. tuberosum lines (Austin et al, 1985;Rokka et al, 1994). Successful application of the fusion technique demands a protocol for plant regeneration from protoplasts.…”

“…However, breeding using the wild species has been limited due to its sexual incompatibility with S. tuberosum caused by the different ploidy level of the genome and endosperm balance number (Oritz & Ehlenfeldt 1992;Cho et al 1997). Therefore, protoplast fusion of the two different species has been attempted to breed new varieties of potato (Binding et al, 1982;Barsby et al, 1984) and somatic hybridization via protoplast fusion provides opportunity to overcome sexual barriers for interspecific gene transfer with late blight resistance in potato breeding program (Eijlander & Stiekema 1994;Zimnoch-Guzowska et al 2003). The S. nigrum (DU_GS8) was collected in Gyeongsan, South Korea, and has been stored at Daegu University, South Korea.…”
