Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of fruit pulp callus technology, and in particular to a method for inducing and culturing jujube fruit pulp callus. Background Technology
[0002] Jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) is a plant belonging to the genus Ziziphus in the family Rhamnaceae. It is a distinctive fruit tree with abundant germplasm resources, a long history of cultivation, and strong resistance and adaptability, possessing high economic, ecological, and social benefits. With the large-scale cultivation of jujube trees, the jujube industry is showing broad prospects. Jujube fruit is sweet and nutritious, considered a "woody food" and a "food and medicine of the same origin," rich in flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, and other active substances. It possesses various pharmacological effects such as anti-oxidation, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.
[0003] Efficient tissue culture systems are fundamental for various biotechnological applications, including cell engineering and genetic engineering. Callus refers to a mass of undifferentiated cells that forms after a part of a plant is damaged or cut. It proliferates on a suitable culture medium and can undergo active cell division. As a common experimental material, callus is widely used in research on plant molecular mechanisms and genetic engineering.
[0004] Current reports on plant tissue culture of jujube trees mainly focus on stem segments, immature embryos, leaves, and anthers. These systems are relatively stable and mature, and can be used for gene function research. With technological advancements, the molecular mechanisms related to the formation of jujube fruit quality traits have gradually become a research hotspot. In the study of jujube fruit molecular mechanisms, callus tissue is a commonly used experimental material. However, callus tissue from other organs is not suitable for studying genes related to jujube fruit quality formation. Therefore, fruit callus tissue has irreplaceable advantages compared to callus tissue from other organs. Cultured jujube pulp callus tissue is a very important approach to studying the molecular mechanisms related to jujube fruit quality formation.
[0005] Furthermore, by optimizing the conditions and induction methods in plant tissue culture, the formation efficiency and regeneration capacity of callus tissue can be improved, thereby establishing a relatively complete callus transformation system. This can provide a foundation for improving crop varieties, enhancing the quality and yield of jujube fruits through transgenic technology. Summary of the Invention

[0029] Example 1
[0030] 1. Experimental Materials
[0031] Fruits of 'Jingzao 60' during the young fruit stage (10-20 days after flowering) and the fruit enlargement stage (50 days after flowering).
[0032] 2. Experimental Methods
[0033] (1) Explant disinfection
[0034] Rinse the collected jujube fruits with running water for 25 minutes, turning them over continuously during this time. Wipe them dry with paper and set aside. In a clean bench, first disinfect with 1% sodium hypochlorite for 8 minutes, then disinfect with 75% alcohol for 10-15 minutes. Rinse the jujube fruits with sterile water 2-3 times, 2-3 minutes each time. Finally, wipe the water off the surface of the jujube fruits with sterile toilet paper.
[0035] (2) Induction and culture of callus
[0036] Using MS as the basal medium, 10 different ratios of induction media with different concentrations of hormones (NAA and TDZ) were selected, as shown in Table 1. The media were then autoclaved at 121℃ for 20 min.
[0037] Table 110 different induction culture media
[0038]
[0039]
[0040] After disinfection and cleaning, peel the jujube fruit with a sterilized knife, place the pulp on sterilized filter paper, and then cut the peeled jujube pulp into pieces of about 1cm×1cm×0.3cm. Spread them evenly on 10 different induction culture media and culture them in a dark environment at 25℃ for 30 days.
[0041] The callus induction medium composition is as follows (1L water): MS 4.5g / L + sucrose 30g / L + agar powder 8g / L + TDZ 0.2-1.5mg / L + NAA 0.2-1.0mg / L, pH=5.8-6.0.
[0042] (3) Results Statistics
[0043] Induction rate = (number of inoculated tissues that induce callus / total number of inoculated tissues) × 100%. The callus induction rate of different induction culture media is calculated according to the formula.
[0044] (4) Callus proliferation culture
[0045] The jujube pulp callus obtained after induction culture was inoculated onto the culture medium with the highest induction rate and the best effect selected above and cultured for a longer period of time.
[0046] 3. Test Results
[0047] from Figure 1 As shown in Table 2, the optimal induction medium for 'Jingzao 60' is: MS 4.5g / L + 30g / L sucrose + 8g / L agar powder + 0.5mg / L TDZ + 0.5mg / L NAA. Under this medium, the callus induction rate of 'Jingzao 60' fruit during the young fruit stage can reach 100%, and the callus induction rate of fruit during the fruit enlargement stage can reach 92%. The callus induction rate of 'Jingzao 60' jujube pulp is higher during the young fruit stage than during the fruit enlargement stage.
[0048] After proliferation culture on the same culture medium (cultured at 25℃ for 30-40 days), the callus tissue was yellowish-white, dense, and exhibited strong differentiation ability, as can be seen in the following figures. Figure 2 .
