isonicotinic acid/nicotiana

Isonicotinic acid hydrazide (INH), an inhibitor of the photorespiratory pathway blocking the conversion of glycine to serine and CO(2), has been used as a selective agent to obtain INH-resistant tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) callus cells. Of 22 cell lines that were INH-resistant, none were different

Twenty stable variant lines resistant to isonicotinic acid hydrazide (INH), an inhibitor of the conversion of glycine to serine in the glycolate pathway, were isolated in cell cultures initiated from allodihaploid Nicotiana tabacum. Plants were regenerated from 13 of these lines and explants were

Isonicotinic acid hydrazide (INH)-resistant lines of Nicotiana tabacum have been maintained in callus culture for six years and mutant plants have been regenerated from a number of these lines. This study examines variations in DNA content in nuclei of several of these callus cultures, regenerated
