    Notes: A Brassica juncea line carrying an introgression from Moricandia arvensis restored male fertility to two cytoplasmic male-sterile (CMS) B. juncea lines carrying either M. arvensis or Diplotaxis catholica cytoplasm. Genetics of fertility restoration was studied in the F1, F2, F3 and backcross generations of the cross between CMS and fertility-restorer lines. No male-sterile plants were found in F1-F3 generations of the cross between CMS [M. arvensis] B. juncea and the restorer. However, a 1: 1 segregation for male sterility and fertility was observed when the F1 was pollinated with non-restorer pollen from a euplasmic line. These results clearly show that restoration is mono-genic and gametophytic. In CMS lines carrying D. catholica cytoplasm, the restorer conferred male fertility to the F1 and showed 3: 1 and 1: 1 segregations for male fertility and sterility in F2 and BC1 generations, respectively, indicating a monogenic, sporophytic mode of fertility restoration. The results were also supported by pollen stainability in the F1 which was about 65% in M. arvensis-based CMS and 〉90% in D. catholica-based CMS. The above results are discussed in the light of previous molecular studies which showed association between CMS and atpA in both systems.

    Notes: A cytoplasmic male-sterile (CMS) line of Brassica juncea has been developed by combining the cytoplasm originating from the somatic hybrid Trachystoma ballii+B. juncea, and the nucleus of B. juncea cv. Pusa Bold by repeated backcrossing. Male-sterile plants closely resembled the normal fertile B. juncea in general morphology, but had delayed flowering (5–7 days) when compared with fertile ‘Pusa Bold’ which flowered in 45 days. Stamens of the male-sterile line were transformed into petaloid structures. Pollen abortion occurred after tetrad formation. Female fertility of the male-sterile line was normal. Molecular analysis of organelle genomes indicated extensive mitochondrial DNA recombinations in the CMS line. Preliminary analysis of the chloroplast genome of the CMS line also indicated chloroplast DNA recombination.

    Notes: By using a system of agirose plating and agarose bead culture, it was possible to induce efficient somatic embryogenesis in protoplast-derived calli of two rapeseed varieties, ‘Ceres’ and ‘Duplo’. Protoplasts were isolated from hypocotyls. For the initial protoplast culture a modified 8P medium was employed containing 2,4D (1.0 mg/l), NAA (0.1 mg/ 1), BAP (0.4 mg/l) and mannitol (7 %). After microcalli were obtained in four weeks, somatic embryos were induced by a two-step method. This involved a modified MS medium containing 2,4D (3.0 mg/l) in the first step and no 2,4D, but BAP (3.0 mg/l) and GA3 (0.1 mg/l) in the second. This procedure also secured plant regeneration.

    Notes: A dominant gene restoring fertility to a cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) line of Brassica juncea was derived from the somatic hybrid Trachystoma ballii+B. juncea. Its introgression resulted from forced pairing between chromosomes of the cultivar ‘Pusa Bold’ and chromosomes of the fusion hybrid. Segregation ratios of this fertility restorer gene followed a monogenic pattern. The introgression of the fertility restorer gene did not cause any abnormalities, such as reduced fertility; pollen and seed fertilities of the restored plants were over 90%. Restored fertile and CMS plants exhibited similar Southern hybridization patterns when probed with the mitochondrial probe atp6.

    Notes: A single-step method for the induction and development of somatic embryoids from hypocotyls explains of Brassica juncea is reported. On modified MS medium containing 2 % sucrose, 0.25 mgl 1 2,4-D, 0.5 mgl 1 each of NAA and BaP-R, each explant calluses at both of and at its best, 31% of explants produce embryoids. In the variety RLM-198, the number of embryoids ranges from 8–21 per culture. Each embryoid, upon proliferation, developed up to the 25 shoots. The method is rapid; the time La ken from inoculation to the development of intact plantlets is 8–10 weeks. Regenerated plants have flowered normally and have set seed. The system can profitably be used for in vitro mutant selection and early bulking in mustard.

    Notes: An alloplasmic mustard, Brassica juncea, has been synthesized by placing its nucleus into the cytoplasm of the related wild species Erucastrum canariense to express cytoplasmic male sterility. To achieve this, the sexual hybrid E. canariense (2n=18, EcEc) ×Brassica campestris (2n= 20, AA) was repeatedly backcrossed to B. juncea (2n= 36, AABB). Cytoplasmic male-sterile (CMS) plants were recovered in the BC4 generation. These plants are a normal green and the flowers have slender, non-dehiscing anthers that contain sterile pollen. Nectaries are well developed and female fertility is 〉 90%. The fertility restoration gene was introgressed to CMS B. juncea from the cytoplasmic donor E. canariense through pairing between chromosomes belonging to B. juncea with those of the E. canariense genome. The restorer plants have normal flowers, with well-developed anthers containing fertile pollen. Meiosis proceeds normally. Pollen and seed fertility averaged 90% and 82%, respectively. F1 hybrids between CMS and the restorer are fully pollen fertile and show normal seed set. Preliminary results indicate that restoration is achieved by a single dominant gene. The constitution of the organelle genomes of the CMS, restorer and fertility restored plants is identical, as revealed by Southern analysis using mitochondrial and chloroplast probes atp A and psb D, respectively.

    Notes: Somatic hybrids of Sinapis alba+Brassica juncea (Sal Sal AABB) were synthesized by protoplast electrofusion. They were true genomic allopolyploids since they possessed 60 chromosomes, i.e. the sum of S. alba (2n= 24) and B. juncea (2n= 36) chromosomes. Chromosome pairing was predominantly bivalent with the occasional occurrence of multivalents in the pollen mother cells at diakinesis and metaphase I. Hybrids were completely pollen-sterile, but produced seeds on back-crossing with B. juncea and B. campestris. A total of 37 BC1 plants were raised from two somatic hybrids (JS-1 and JS-2) and 24 of these were analysed cytologically. The 22 plants originating from the pollinations of somatic hybrids with B. juncea showed a chromosome configuration of 18II+12I and had 42–86% pollen fertility. Two plants from the backcrosses of the somatic hybrid with B. campestris formed 10II +20I, and had 0–4% fertile pollen. Total DNA analysis by probing with pTA71 carrying a full-length 18S–25S rDNA fragment of the wheat nuclear genome revealed that the two somatic hybrids possessed all the characteristic bands of both the species, confirming their hybridity. Probing with the mitochondrial coxI and atp9 genes indicated mitochondrial genome recombination in the hybrids. Hybridization with chloroplast-specific psbD indicated that both the somatic hybrids possessed the cp genome of S. alba origin.

    Notes: Abstract Intergeneric somatic hybrids, Trachystoma ballii (2n=16)+B. juncea (2n=38), were obtained by fusing mesophyll protoplasts of T. ballii and hypocotyl protoplasts of B. juncea using polyethylene glycol. The heterokaryotic fusion frequency was around 23%. Plants were regenerated from 10 out of 2×104 calli of which four were hybrids. Hybrids were intermediate between the parents in general morphology. However, in some characters one of the parents dominated. All the plants were symmetric in their chromosomal constitution as revealed by the formation of 26 bivalents at metaphase-I of meiosis. Two trivalents and 2 univalents were also observed in some pollen mother cells. Hybrid nature was also confirmed by ‘Southern’ hybridization of DNA of one regenerated plant restricted with Hind III and probed with the nick translated plasmid pTA71 carrying a wheat nuclear r-DNA sequence. Hybrid plant RT 1 showed bands characteristic of both parents. All the plants were absolutely pollen sterile. However, on backcrosses to B. juncea seeds were obtained.

    Notes: Abstract Protoplasts were isolated from hypocotyls of 7-d-old seedlings of three genotypes of Brassica carinata after enzymatic digestion in cellulase R-10 (0.5%) and pectolyase Y-23 (0.025%). The protoplasts were stabilized with 0.4 M mannitol used as osmoticum, and were cultured in darkness in Kao's liquid medium containing 0.4 M glucose and the growth regulators 2,4-D (1.0 mg/l), NAA (0.1 mg/l) and zeatin riboside (0.5 mg/l). Protoplasts were transferred to 16 h photoperiod conditions after 3 d of dark culture, and the medium was diluted to reduce the osmoticum on the seventh and tenth days of culture. Microcolonies were thus obtained which, upon transfer to MS agarose medium with 2,4-D (0.1 mg/l), BAP (1 mg/l) and 0.1 M sucrose, proliferated further to produce callus clumps. The plating efficiency of the three genotypes varied from 1 to 2%. Calli 2–3 mm in diameter were transferred to MS agarose plates with zeatin (2 mg/l) where they produced shoot buds and shoots with frequencies ranging from 22.5 to 74.2% for the three genotypes. The shoots were rooted in medium with IBA (1 mg/l) and were then established in soil. The time required for protoplast to plant development was 8 to 10 weeks.

    Notes: Abstract Intergeneric somatic hybrids have been produced between Brassica juncea (2n=36, AABB) cv. RLM-198 and Moricandia arvensis (2n=28, MM) by protoplast fusion. Hypocotyl protoplasts of B. juncea were fused with mesophyll protoplasts of M. arvensis using polyethylene glycol. Fusion frequency, estimated on the basis of differential morphological characterstics of parental protoplasts was about 5%. Of the 156 calli obtained, four calli produced shoots intermediate in morphology between the parents. Hybrid nature of the plants was confirmed using wheat nuclear rDNA probe. Hybridization of total DNA with a mitochondrial DNA probe carrying 5s–18s rRNA genes of maize showed that the mitochondria of the somatic hybrids were derived from the wild species M. arvensis. Meiosis in the only hybrid that produced normal flowers revealed the occurrence of 64 chromosomes, the sum of chromosomes of parental species. Inspite of complete pollen sterility, siliquas were produced in this hybrid by back-crossing with B. juncea. These siliquas on in vitro culture produced 12 seeds.
