    Notes: Many applications of cereal protoplast culture systems are still limited by the difficulties of regeneration from suspension cells which are the usual protoplast source. The objective of the present study therefore was to investigate the conditions for the development of a culture system for protoplasts capable of plant regeneration isolated directly from immmature scutella of barley. The procedure developed involves a two-stage pre-culture of scutellar tissue, followed by vacuum infiltration with cell wall degrading enzymes and the culture of alginate-embedded protoplasts. The pre-culture of the scutella and the co-cultivation of protoplasts with nurse cells were the most important factors for the success of the culture system, but several other parameters affecting protoplast yield, viability and sustained division were identified, including the developmental stage of the embryo, the use of cold conditioning periods during pre-culture, the composition of the pre-culture and protoplast culture medium, and the embedding matrix. Protoplasts isolated from scutellar tissues of barley cvs Dissa, Clipper, Derkado and Puffin were capable of sustained division in culture. Macroscopic protoplast-derived tissues were obtained in all cultivars, except ev. Puffin, and fertile plants were regenerated from cvs Dissa and Clipper 3–4 months after protoplast isolation. The procedure described provides a novel approach for the isolation of totipotent protoplasts in barley which avoids the need for suspension cultures.

    Notes: Abstract We report regeneration of fertile plants from barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Igri) protoplasts isolated from regenerable suspension cultures initiated from anther-derived embryogenic callus. Plants were routinely regenerated from these suspension cultures, which maintained their regenerative capacity for several months. It was first possible to isolate protoplasts from suspensions after three months of culture and after four months protoplasts capable of division could be isolated. Protoplasts maintained the regenerative capacity of the donor cells and formed embryogenic callus. Green plants were regenerated from protoplast-derived calli, although the proportion of albino plantlets was high. Viable regenerants were transferred to soil and fertile plants were recovered.

    Notes: Abstract  A system for barley transformation via polyethyleneglycol-mediated DNA uptake into protoplasts isolated directly from scutella and the regeneration of transgenic plants is reported. Scutellum protoplasts (cv. Clipper, an Australian malting cultivar) were co-transformed with plasmids Act 1-DGUS, containing the marker uidA gene, and pCaIneo, which contains the selectable marker neomycin phosphotransferase gene. Protoplast-derived calluses were selected on medium containing the antibiotic G418 (25 and 15 mg.l–1) and macroscopic antibiotic resistant colonies were recovered. Fertile plants were regenerated from a callus line and molecular analysis confirmed transgene integration.

    Notes: Abstract Wheat scutella and tritordeum inflorescences were transformed by tissue electroporation with plasmid DNA containing a β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene (gus A) under the control of the rice actin1 promoter. Factors affecting electroporation efficiency were analysed. Important factors were electroporation voltage and pulse length, the volume of electroporation buffer, the osmoticum of electroporation buffer and medium, the osmoticum of pre-electroporation culture medium, and pre-electroporation incubation time and temperature. Maximum transient gene expression was obtained with a single pulse of 550 V/cm from a 960-μF capacitor, using 200 μl of electroporation buffer, after 2–3 h culture on media with 357 mOsm for wheat scutella or 1 day on media with 222 mOsm for tritordeum inflorescences, and 0.5–1 h pre-electroporation incubation with DNA at 24 °C. Under these conditions, up to 90% of the explants showed GUS expression, and up to 149 expression signals were recorded per replicate. Electroporated explants showed high rates of survival and retained the ability to regenerate plants via somatic embryogenesis.

    Notes: Abstract  The objective of this study was to identify the major parameters controlling DNA delivery by particle bombardment to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) scutellum and inflorescence tissue. The main factors studied were the DNA/gold precipitation process, bombardment parameters and tissue culture variables. Efficiency of DNA (uidA gene) delivery was assessed by scoring transient GUS expression in bombarded tissues. Of the parameters analysed, amount of plasmid DNA, spermidine concentration, presence of Ca++ ions, calcium chloride concentration, amount of gold particles, gold particle size, acceleration pressure, chamber vacuum pressure, bombardment distance, osmotic conditioning of tissues and type of auxin had a clear influence on transient gene expression. A bombardment procedure suitable for elite wheat varieties was developed which allowed high-efficiency DNA delivery combined with reduced damage to target tissues.

    Notes: Abstract The interaction between sucrose and auxin in soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) somatic embryogenesis was investigated by culturing immature cotyledon explants on factorial combinations of NAA (6.25, 12.5, 25 and 50 mg/l) and sucrose (0.5, 1, 2 and 4%). A significant interaction between sugar and auxin was observed; balanced concentrations of the two components were required for optimal embryo production and normality. The highest numbers of normal somatic embryos were produced on media which contained combinations of low to intermediate levels of sucrose (1 or 2%) and NAA (6.25 or 12.5 mg/l). Cotyledon explants from induction media having a low (0.5%) sucrose content showed the most efficient embryogenesis in secondary culture. The highest frequencies of germination (32 to 41%) were seen among embryos induced on media containing 0.5% sucrose.

    Notes: Summary We have established embryogenic cell suspension cultures of barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cultivars Igri, Gimpel, Princesse, and Baronesse) from anther-derived embryogenic callus. Suspension cultures of cultivars Igri and Gimpel were regenerable. The most successful cultivar was Igri, from which a number of independent cell lines producing plantlets were established. Plants could be transferred to soil; up to now, 50% of more than 200 regenerated plants were morphologically normal and fertile. The relative frequency of sterile plants increased as suspensions aged. Suspensions older than 1 year produced embryogenic callus but only albino plantlets could be regenerated.

    Notes: Abstract We report the generation of transgenic barley plants via PEG-mediated direct DNA uptake to protoplasts. Protoplasts isolated from embryogenic cell suspensions of barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv ‘Igri’) were PEG-treated in a solution containing a plasmid which contained the neomycin phosphotransferase (NPT II) gene under the control of the rice actin promoter and the nos terminator. Colonies developing from the treated protoplasts were incubated in liquid medium containing the selective antibiotic G418. Surviving calli were subsequently transferred to solid media containing G418, on which embryogenic calli developed. These calli gave rise to albino and green shoots on antibiotic-free regeneration medium. NPT II ELISA revealed that approximately half of the morphogenic calli expressed the foreign gene. In total, 12 plantlets derived from NPT-positive calli survived transfer to soil. Southern hybridization analysis confirmed the stable transformation of these plants. However, the foreign gene seemed to be inactivated in plants from one transgenic line. Most of the transgenic plants set seed, and the foreign gene was transmitted and expressed in their progenies, which was ascertained by Southern hybridization and NPT II ELISA.

    Notes: Summary Protoplasts isolated from a barley cell suspension (cv Dissa) were transformed with plasmid DNA containing the neomycinphosphotransferase II (NPT) and β-glucuronidase (GUS) genes, using polyethyleneglycol (PEG) to induce DNA uptake. Transformed microcalli were selected in media containing G418 sulphate. NPT activity was detected in all antibiotic-resistant cell lines, but not all NPT-positive cell lines had GUS activity. Southern analysis confirmed the presence of sequences homologous to the APT and GUS genes in DNA of G418-resistant callus.

    Notes: Summary Numerical and structural chromosome variation was analysed in dividing protoplasts isolated from suspension cells of barley. Five cell lines exhibited distribution patterns in chromosome number with different peaks and ranges. Embryogenic/morphogenic cell lines showed a peak at 2n = 14 (ca. 50%) after 6–7 months in culture, while older non-embryogenic cell lines had peaks at aneuploid or polyploid chromosome numbers. Culture duration had a clear effect on numerical and structural chromosome variation in embryogenic cell lines. With ageing of the cultures chromosome variation accumulated and the proportion of 2n = 14 cells decreased. The effect of protoplast isolation and culture on chromosome variation was examined; more cells with normal chromosome sets (12%) were maintained in protoplast-derived colonies than in source suspension cells (4%) of the same culture age.
