    Notes: Abstract The goal of this research was to develop an efficient transformation system for 'Marshall McIntosh' apple. To determine the optimum combination of agar and Gelrite gelling agents in the media to maximize regeneration and minimize hyperhydicity (vitrification), the following combinations of agar (A)+Gelrite (G) in g l-1 were tested: 7.0 A+0 G; 5.2 A+0.6 G; 3.5 A+2.5 G; 1.7 A+1.8 G; and 0 A+2.5 G. Both 5.2 A+0.6 G and 3.5 A+1.2 G provided greatest regeneration of healthy non-hyperhydric shoots. To determine the optimal concentration of aminoglycoside for the selection and regeneration of transgenic 'Marshall McIntosh' on agar-Gelrite-based media, kanamycin was tested at 0, 10, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg l-1, and paromomycin was tested at 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 mg l-1. Kanamycin was more effective than paromomycin in the initial selection of transgenics. For selection of transformants of 'Marshall McIntosh', the use of kanamycin at 25 mg l-1on 5.2 A+0.6 G solidified medium is suggested. By optimizing the medium and selection conditions, a protocol was developed that resulted in four transgenic lines as confirmed by a GUS assay, NPT II ELISA, PCR, and Southern analysis. In repeated experiments with this protocol, transformation efficiencies of 3.1 and 2.6% were obtained.

    Early determination of genotypes for apple scab resistance by forced flowering of test cross progenies (1976)

    Notes: Summary Apple selections with different major genes for resistance to apple scab (Venturia inaequalis) derived from Malus floribunda and M. pumila were crossed with each other. The progenies were screened as young seedlings for their reaction to V. inaequalis race 1. A gene for resistance from M. pumila, causing stellate necrotic (SN) lesions, was epistatic to a second gene for resistance from M. floribunda, causing irregular chlorotic (Chl) lesions. Although in most cases SN, Chl and susceptible phenotypes were clearly distinct, occasionally reactions were difficult to characterize or varied from one inoculation to another. Selected seedlings showing resistant or susceptible reactions were forced to flower in 16–20 months in the greenhouse and test crossed with susceptible cultivars. Test cross seedlings were screened for scab reaction. The presence of both genes for resistance in a resistant plant was indicated by presence of both Chl and SN resistant phenotypes in the test cross progeny. Chi-square analysis of four large progenies produced a good fit to the expected ratio. The use of the forced flowering technique to determine scab resistance genotypes in 28 months demonstrated its value in breeding apples with multiple disease resistance.

    Micropropagation of thirteen Malus cultivars and rootstocks, and effect of antibiotics on proliferation (1994)

    Notes: Abstract Several factors that affect in vitro establishment, proliferation, and rooting of thirteen Malus cultivars and rootstocks were studied. Apple shoot tips (1.5±0.5 cm in length) were established using ascorbic and citric acids as antioxidants. Four proliferation media containing 1.0 mg 1−1 BA and different concentrations of IBA and GA3 were tested. Proliferation rates varied depending on the genotype and medium used. The highest proliferation rate was obtained for a rootstock that produced 11.6±2.5 shoots (1.5±0.8 cm in length) per tube per month. Rooting was induced with IBA for all the genotypes tested. The optimal IBA concentration was cultivar dependent (between 0.1 and 1.0 mg 1−1 IBA), and lower concentrations were necessary to induce rooting in liquid rather than in solid medium. The effects on shoot-tip proliferation of cefotaxime, carbenicillin and kanamycin, three antibiotics commonly used for transformation studies, were also evaluated. Cefotaxime at 200 mg 1−1 stimulated shoot growth and development, but at 500 mg 1−1 caused abnormal shoot morphology. Carbenicillin at 500 mg 1−1, alone or in combination with cefotaxime at 200 mg 1−1, inhibited proliferation and caused excessive enlargement of the basal leaves, inducing callus formation and release of phenolic compounds in the medium. Kanamycin at 50 mg 1−1 was phytotoxic and caused shoot chlorosis and necrosis. Consideration of the toxicity of these antibiotics is critical when designing transformation schemes for selection and recovery of transgenic apple plants.

    Factors that effect leaf regeneration efficiency in apple, and effect of antibiotics in morphogenesis (1994)

    Notes: Abstract Several factors that affect the frequency of organogenesis in apple leaf explants were examined for the scion cultivars ‘Empire’, ‘Freedom’, ‘Golden Delicious’, ‘Liberty’, ‘McIntosh’, and ‘Mutsu’ and for the rootstocks Malling 7A and Malling 26. The main factors affecting morphogenesis were BA concentration, basal medium, leaf explant origin and maturity, explant orientation, and photosynthetic photon flux. Depending on the genotype, optimal regeneration was obtained using either 22.2 or 31.1 μM BA and the N6 basal medium, with the exception of ‘Golden Delicious’ which regenerated better on MS medium. After 6 weeks, the average number of shoots per segment varied from 5 to 16, and the percentage of regeneration between 70 and 100%, depending on the genotype tested and the maturity of the explant. Regeneration capacity increased dramatically from the tip towards the base of the leaf, and was higher from the middle to the proximal end. Cefotaxime and carbenicillin, two antibiotics commonly used during transformation studies to eliminate Agrobacterium tumefaciens from plant tissue, were tested to determine their effect on morphogenesis. Cefotaxime at a dose of 250 mg 1-1 enhanced regeneration and shoot development, whereas carbenicillin at a dose of 500 mg l-1 induced abundant callus formation and inhibited regeneration. Kanamycin, a widely used selection agent for plant transformation, strongly inhibited regeneration even at very low doses. Schemes for selection and recovery of transgenic apple plants when kanamycin is used as the selection agent are discussed.
