TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of plant tissue culture technology, in particular to a method for removing associated bacteria in tissue culture subculture and proliferation of Clerodendrum trichotomum and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Clerodendrum trichotomum has high ornamental and medicinal value, and the demand for landscaping seedlings is increasing. Tissue culture technology is a key means to achieve rapid propagation. In the practice of tissue culture of Clerodendrum trichotomum, the problem of associated bacteria contamination is prominent when using stem segments with buds as explants for subculture and proliferation. Red associated bacteria rapidly multiply at this stage, forming red bacterial plaques that continuously expand and spread to the surface of the culture medium and the base of the buds. This bacterial contamination directly damages the tissue culture seedlings, leading to wilting and even death, and seriously hinders the expansion process of tissue culture.
[0003] According to the culture specifications of sterile seedlings, once bacterial contamination occurs, the contaminated tissue culture seedlings need to be discarded and sterilized, and then new explants need to be selected and a sterile system needs to be established. The traditional treatment method not only hinders the normal tissue culture process, leading to a prolonged expansion period, but also causes a large amount of loss of valuable explant materials and culture medium consumables, increases labor and time costs, and causes resource waste, which is a key bottleneck restricting the industrialization and high-efficiency production of tissue culture. Therefore, a targeted technical solution is urgently needed. SUMMARY

[0031] The application will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific examples.
[0032] Example 1
[0033] The method for removing associated bacteria in the subculture and proliferation culture of Clidemia hainanensis by tissue culture comprises the following steps:
[0034] 1. Selection and disinfection of explants
[0035] Selection of explants: the stem segments with axillary buds or terminal buds of Clidemia hainanensis plants are taken as the explants.
[0036] Pre-treatment: the explants are washed with running water, soaked in a laundry detergent solution for 15 minutes, and gently brushed with a soft brush to ensure complete cleaning. Then, the explants are washed with running water for 4 hours to remove the residual detergent.
[0037] Sterile treatment: the explants are transferred to a clean bench, soaked in 75% alcohol for 30 seconds, and then washed with sterile water for 2-3 times. Then, the explants are disinfected with a 0.5% sodium hypochlorite solution for 8-10 minutes, and then washed with sterile water for 4-5 times. Finally, the explants are placed on sterile filter paper and dried.
[0038] 2. Callus induction (dedifferentiation)
[0039] Under sterile conditions, the explants subjected to sterile treatment are transferred to callus induction medium for culture.
[0040] The optimal medium for callus induction is MS+6-BA 0.75 mg·L -1 +NAA 0.25 mg·L -1 + sucrose 25.0 g·L -1 + agar 8 g·L -1 ; pH 5.8;
[0041] Culturing conditions: temperature 25±2℃, humidity 75%, light intensity 1800 lux, light treatment duration 8h / d, and dark treatment duration 16h / d.
[0042] The callus was green, full and compact (Fig. 2) and the effective callus induction rate was 100%. Figure 1
[0043] 3. Redifferentiation of callus
[0044] The callus was transferred to the redifferentiation medium for culture.
[0045] Medium formula: MS + 6-BA 0.4 mg·L -1 + IBA 0.5 mg·L -1 + sucrose 25.0 g·L -1 + agar 7.5 g·L -1 , pH 6.2;
[0046] Culture conditions: temperature 25 ± 2℃, humidity 75%, light intensity 1800 lux, light and dark treatment time 12 h / d.
[0047] After 7 days of culture, the callus redifferentiated into adventitious buds and the redifferentiation rate was 100%. The buds germinated and grew to 0.5 cm, the leaves unfolded 2-3 pieces, and formed adventitious buds (Fig. 3) with good growth potential, laying a foundation for subsequent proliferation. Figure 2
[0048] 4. Proliferation culture (induction of clustered buds)
[0049] (1) The adventitious buds were cut from the callus for proliferation culture.
[0050] Proliferation medium formula: MS + 6-BA 0.2 mg·L -1 + IBA 0.25 mg·L -1 + sucrose 25.0 g·L -1 + agar 7.5 g·L -1 , pH 6.2;
[0051] Culture conditions: temperature 25 ± 2℃, humidity 75%, light intensity 1800 lux, light and dark treatment time 12 h / d.
[0052] (2) When the associated bacteria infected, the treatment method was as follows: after 3 days of proliferation culture, the surface of the culture medium was observed to be pus-like, mucous red bacterial spots (area 5 × 5 cm 2 ), the plants appeared yellowing and wilting, and even wilted to death (Fig. 4). Figure 3 The presence of red basal bacteria indicates contamination. In this case, the infected bud clusters were transferred to a new proliferation medium. A sterile gentamicin sulfate solution (800 mg / L) was added dropwise to the surface of the medium (under sterile conditions, gentamicin injection stock solution was taken with a sterile pipette, injected into a sterile container, and diluted with sterile water to a final volume, then shaken well to prepare an 800 mg / L sterile gentamicin sulfate solution) at a concentration of 12 mL per 60 mL of medium. The culture flask was gently shaken to ensure the sterile gentamicin sulfate solution evenly covered the surface of the medium and the gaps at the base of the bud clusters. The culture was continued under the original conditions for 7 days. The red bacterial patches disappeared, and the medium returned to its original state (see attached). Figure 4 The treated shoot clusters were transferred to a new proliferation medium for further culture. No red associated bacteria were observed within 7 days, indicating a 100% clearance rate. Tissue culture seedlings treated with gentamicin sulfate grew vigorously, without yellowing or vitrification. The height of the tissue culture shoot clusters was 4–5 cm, and the proliferation coefficient was as high as 16(2). 4 ).
[0053] (3) Figure 5 As shown, adventitious buds taller than 4cm were selected and transferred to conventional rooting medium for rooting culture. After 14 days of culture, the plant height reached 5cm-6cm, with 3-5 roots forming a root system 2-3cm in length and 0.2-0.3mm in diameter, achieving a 100% rooting rate and forming a complete plant (see attached image). Figure 6 This fully demonstrates that the treatment of red associated bacteria in this embodiment does not affect the normal growth of clustered buds at all.
[0054] Example 2
[0055] The method for establishing the rapid propagation system of *Changshania hainanensis* tissue culture in this embodiment is the same as that in Example 1. The difference is that when red associated bacteria infection occurs during the propagation culture, this embodiment uses a sterile gentamicin sulfate solution with a concentration of 200 mg / L for treatment.
[0056] The red fungal plaque area was observed to have decreased by 70%. After treatment, the clustered shoots were transferred to a new culture medium, and no red fungal plaque recurrence was observed within 3 days. (See attached image) Figure 7 As shown, the leaves of the tissue culture seedlings treated with sterile gentamicin sulfate were dark green, without yellowing or vitrification. The height of the tissue culture bud clusters was 2.5 cm, and the proliferation coefficient was 2. In this example, the treatment with red symbiotic bacteria affected the normal growth of the bud clusters.
[0057] Example 3
[0058] The method for establishing the rapid propagation system of *Changshania hainanensis* tissue culture in this embodiment is the same as that in Example 1. The difference is that when red associated bacteria infection occurs during the propagation culture, this embodiment uses a sterile gentamicin sulfate solution with a concentration of 500 mg / L for treatment.
[0059] The red bacterial plaque area was observed to shrink by 80%, and the treated cluster buds were transferred to new culture medium for continued culture, and the red bacterial plaque reappeared within 3 days. As shown in the accompanying Figure 7 The leaves of the tissue culture seedlings treated with sterile gentamicin sulfate were dark green, and the plants did not have yellowing or vitrification, the cluster buds had a height of 3.5 cm, and the proliferation coefficient was 4. In this example, the treatment of the red companion bacteria affected the normal growth of the cluster buds.
[0060] Example 4
[0061] In this example, the method for establishing the tissue culture and rapid propagation proliferation system of Radix Bupleuri was the same as in Example 1, except that when red companion bacteria infection occurred during the proliferation culture, sterile gentamicin sulfate solution with a concentration of 1100 mg / L was used for treatment.
[0062] The red bacterial plaque was observed to disappear, and the treated cluster buds were transferred to new culture medium for continued culture, and no red bacterial plaque reappeared within 3 days. As shown in the accompanying Figure 7 The leaves of the tissue culture seedlings treated with sterile gentamicin sulfate were yellow, and the edges of the leaves were observed to curl and wilt, the cluster buds had a height of 4 cm, and the proliferation coefficient was 8. In this example, the treatment of the red companion bacteria affected the normal growth of the cluster buds.
[0063] Comparative Example 1
[0064] In this comparative example, the method for establishing the tissue culture and rapid propagation high proliferation system of Radix Bupleuri was the same as in Example 1, except that when companion bacteria contamination occurred during step 4, the proliferation culture (cluster bud induction), instead of using the “(2) treatment method when companion bacteria infection occurs” in Example 1, the following three methods were used for treatment.
[0065] Method 1, the bacterial cluster buds were transferred to new sterile proliferation culture medium for culture for 14 days.
[0066] Method 2, the bacterial cluster buds were cut into small pieces and re-sterilized, specifically soaked in 75% alcohol for 30 seconds, washed with sterile water for 2-3 times, sterilized with 0.5% sodium hypochlorite solution for 8-10 minutes, washed with sterile water for 4-5 times, and then dried with sterile filter paper; after treatment, they were transferred to new sterile proliferation culture medium for culture for 14 days.
[0067] Method 3, the bacteria-carrying cluster shoots are transferred to new propagation medium, and 12 mL of sterile streptomycin sulfate solution with a concentration of 800 mg / L is added dropwise to the surface of the medium (under sterile conditions, the streptomycin sulfate injection stock solution is taken with a sterile pipette, injected into a sterile container, diluted with sterile water to a concentration of 800 mg / L of sterile streptomycin sulfate solution), and the culture bottle is gently shaken to evenly cover the surface of the culture medium and the gap at the base of the cluster shoots with the sterile streptomycin sulfate solution. Continue to culture under the original culture conditions for 7 days, and then transfer to new propagation medium for another 7 days of culture.
[0068] The culture results after the treatments of methods 1-3 are shown in Table 1 and the attached Figure 8
