Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of plant tissue culture technology, and more specifically to a highly efficient method for inducing adventitious roots of Edelweiss, which is particularly suitable for large-scale cultivation of Edelweiss and the targeted accumulation of secondary metabolites (flavonoids, leonuric acid, etc.). Background Technology

[0002] Edelweiss ( Leontopodium leontopodioides Edelweiss is a perennial herb belonging to the genus Edelweiss in the family Asteraceae. It has both medicinal and ecological value. It is rich in flavonoids, terpenoids, edelweiss acid and other secondary metabolites, and has clear antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and hepatoprotective biological activities. It has broad application prospects in the fields of pharmaceutical preparation research and development and high-end cosmetic raw material production.

[0003] However, there are rigid bottlenecks in the supply of edelweiss resources: firstly, it is naturally distributed in high-altitude and cold mountainous areas, with a growth cycle of 2-3 years and a natural reproduction rate of less than 20%; secondly, due to habitat destruction and over-harvesting, wild resources have been listed as rare and protected species, which is far from meeting the market demand with an annual growth rate of more than 15%.

[0004] To address the resource constraints, the scientific community has attempted various artificial propagation techniques, but all have significant limitations: ① Seed propagation: Seed germination rate is less than 30%, seedling transplant survival rate is less than 50%, and large-scale production is not feasible; ② Division propagation: The annual propagation coefficient of a single plant is only 2-3 plants, and the propagation cycle exceeds 6 months, making rapid propagation impossible; ③ Callus suspension culture: Product purity is less than 60%, browning rate exceeds 40% within 20 days of culture, and no adventitious root-specific induction system has been formed—adventitious roots, as carriers for the synthesis of secondary metabolites, have a synthesis capacity 3-5 times that of callus tissue, thus becoming the optimal technical direction.

[0005] Existing techniques for inducing adventitious roots in *Edendrobium nobile* suffer from three major drawbacks: ① Low induction rate (generally 50%-60%), with insufficient disinfection resulting in a contamination rate exceeding 30%, and excessive disinfection leading to a 40% loss of explant viability; ② Low growth efficiency, with a single plant gaining less than 0.5 g of fresh weight within a 20-day culture period, making mass harvesting impossible; ③ Low and unstable product content, with the dry weight content of the key component, leonuric acid, often below 0.8 mg / g (not meeting the minimum standard of 1.0 mg / g for medicinal extraction). In-depth analysis reveals that traditional methods rely solely on single hormone treatments (such as IBA), failing to systematically integrate the synergistic effects of "explant pretreatment - culture medium optimization - environmental regulation," resulting in unsatisfactory technical outcomes.

[0006] Therefore, providing an efficient method for inducing adventitious roots of Edelweiss is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Therefore, the application provides a high-efficiency induction method of S. przewalskii adventitious roots, and develops a S. przewalskii adventitious root induction system with low browning, high induction and high product, which has important scientific research value and economic significance for S. przewalskii resource protection and industrialization development.

[0012] Step 5: Proliferation culture and product accumulation The induced adventitious roots are cut, and the root tips with a length of 2-3 cm are reserved to improve the proliferation rate, inoculated into a proliferation culture medium, and placed in a shaking bed for culture: temperature of 23-25 ℃, light intensity of 1000-1500 lx, light time of 12 h / d, and rotation speed of 100-120 r / min (to ensure sufficient dissolved oxygen), and cultured for 20-30 days; the proliferation culture medium is a 1 / 2MS liquid culture medium containing IBA 0.5-0.8 mg / L + sucrose 30-40 g / L + hydrolyzed casein 100-200 mg / L. The fresh weight increment of the root system in liquid shaking bed culture is increased by more than 60 % compared with that in solid culture.

[0013] Further, a high-efficiency induction method of firebush adventitious roots is provided, wherein steps 2 and 3 are replaced by steps 6 and 7: Step 6: Induction of firebush callus The tissues of the aseptic seedlings are used as explants to induce callus, which is used as the starting material for induction of adventitious roots.

[0016] 3) Cultivation: inoculating explants on induction medium, cultivating at 25°C in dark conditions for 20-30 days until loose, light yellow or light green granular callus is formed; subculturing every 2-3 weeks, subculturing 2 times; the subculture medium is based on MS medium, adding 0.5-1.0 mg / L 2,4-D and 0.1-0.5 mg / L 6-BA; to expand and maintain the vitality of callus.

[0017] Step 7: High-efficiency induction culture Inoculating callus on high-efficiency induction medium, after 45 days of induction, callus-induced adventitious roots are obtained, which are used for segmented induction culture.

[0018] Further, the method is applied to improve the induction rate of Ledum palustre adventitious roots.

[0078] The effects of sterile Edelweiss seedling growth and adventitious root induction in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were compared, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0079] Table 1. Comparison of the effects of different treatments on the growth and adventitious root induction of Edelweiss aseptic seedlings.

[0080] As shown in Table 1, in Example 5, the seed germination rate was highest (up to 90%) when seeds were disinfected by soaking in 75% ethanol for 10 seconds and then by disinfecting with 0.1% mercuric chloride for 5 minutes, while the contamination rate was also the lowest (10%). In adventitious root induction, the root had the highest induction rate, followed by the stem segment, and finally the callus tissue.

[0081] In Example 5, the 1 / 2 MS medium with 0.8 mg / L IBA, 40 g / L sucrose, and 200 mg / L hydrolyzed casein was the optimal medium for inducing adventitious roots, and the adventitious roots cultured from it had the highest contents of flavonoids and edelweiss.

[0082] in conclusion This invention, through the synergistic innovation of "pretreatment-culture medium-segmented culture", significantly outperforms traditional methods in terms of induction rate, growth rate, and product content. Moreover, the technical parameters can be standardized, making it a promising candidate for large-scale industrial application.
