Objective: To study the rapid propagation in vitro of Dioscorea opposita‘Guangfeng’, and to observe the stomas of the transplanting plantlets and potted seedlings, to test chromosome ploidy by FCM, and to detect DNA mutation by ISSR,in order to provide the technical basis for the large-scale production of Dioscorea opposita ‘Guangfeng’ plantlets.
Methods: The technique system of Dioscorea opposita ‘Guangfeng’rapid propagation in vitro was established and optimized by plant tissue culture method. The parameters of transplanting plantlets and potted seedlings were studied as follows, the stomatal parameters were observed by transparent adhesive tape method, chromosome ploidy were analyzed by FCM, and DNA mutation were detected by ISSR molecular marker.
Objective: In order to provide methodology reference for virus-free and germplasm conservation of Guangfeng medicinal yam (Dioscorea opposita) plantlets, rapid micropropagation in vitro technique of Guangfeng medicinal yam plantlets was studied.
Methods: Using the method of plant tissue culture, single factor test and flow-cytometry, the basic procedure of Guangfeng medicinal yam tissue culture was established and the DNA content of Guangfeng medicinal yam plantlets and its potted seedlings was detected.
Results: The best disinfection procedure of stems with a bud of Guangfeng medicinal yam was washed with sterile water for three times after sterilized with 70% alcohol for 20 - 30 s and then washed with sterile water for three times again after sterilized with 0.
Objective: In order to provide the theoretical basis for the Guangfeng medicinal yam( Dioscorea opposita) in field transplanting, the effect of PEG-6000 simulation drought stress on physiological characteristics of Guangfeng medicinal yam plantlets was studied.
Methods: Using the method of spectrophotometer,the content of total chlorophyll,soluble total sugar, soluble protein and praline,as well as the activities of SOD,CAT and POD of Guangfeng medicinal yam plantlets were tested under PEG-6000 treatment.
Results: Under PEG-6000 simulated drought stress, with the increasing of drought stress and the extension of stress time, the total chlorophyll content of Guangfeng medicinal yam plantlets continued to decline, the content of total soluble sugar, proline and MDA of Guangfeng medicinal yam plantlets significantly increased, the content of soluble protein and the activities of CAT,POD and SOD of Guangfeng medicinal yam plantlets increased at first and then decreased.
