Potato internodal segments (INS) treated with the auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid can be induced to develop somatic embryos upon their transfer to an auxin-free medium, while the continuous presence of auxin in the medium suppresses the progression of embryogenically-induced somatic cells to
The study of the effects of auxins on potato tuberization corresponds to one of the oldest experimental systems in plant biology, which has remained relevant for over 70 years. However, only recently, in the postgenomic era, the role of auxin in tuber formation and other vital processes in potatoes
Cytokinin, auxin and gibberellin contents in resting and wound-responding potato tubers have not been fully determined and coordinated with wound-healing processes. Using a well-defined wound-healing model system, hormone content and expression of genes associated with hormone turnover were
White potato tuber tissue reacts upon wounding with a rapid increase in activity of both chromatin-bound DNA-dependent RNA polymerase I and II as well as protein phosphokinase. This enhancement is more pronounced if 0.1 mM of the synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is added
Lateral buds of six cultivars of sweet potato were induced to form embryogenic callus in a culture medium solidified with two types of gelling agents, Agar or Gelrite, and supplemented with various concentrations of auxins, 2,4-D, 2,4,5-T and Picloram. Of the six cultivars screened, only three gave
Studies were conducted to characterize the effect of advanced potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) seed-tuber age on plant growth potential and whole-plant morphology. Plant growth from single-eye seedcores from 5- to 18-month old ;Russet Burbank' seedtubers was compared. Loss in apical dominance was
The objective of the current study was to simplify existing somatic embryogenesis systems in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cv. Desiree. The project targeted the agar-based induction phase of the potato somatic embryogenesis process as the key area for improvement. Experiments were established to
The study compared the effects of 1.0 × MS medium containing various concentrations of α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), alone or in combination with gibberellic acid (GA3) in micropropagation of three potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivars
Auxin/indole-3-acetid acid (Aux/IAA) proteins are short-lived transcriptional regulators that mediate their response through interaction with auxin response factors (ARF). Although 29 Aux/IAA proteins have been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana, their individual functions are still poorly
Production of the phytotoxin thaxtomin A by pathogenic Streptomyces spp. is essential for induction of common scab disease in potato. Prior studies have shown that foliar application of sublethal concentrations of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and other auxin or auxin-like compounds
A suppression subtractive hybridization approach (SSH) was used to generate a cDNA library enriched in clones representing genes that are up-regulated in the potato tuber apical bud on dormancy release. The sequences of cDNAs representing 385 different genes were determined. This study focuses on
Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), a major plant auxin, is produced in both tryptophan-dependent and tryptophan-independent pathways. A major pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana generates IAA in two reactions from tryptophan. Step one converts tryptophan to indole-3-pyruvic acid (IPA) by tryptophan
Phytohormones, auxins in particular, play an important role in plant development and productivity. Earlier data showed positive impact of exogenous auxin on potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuberization. The aim of this study was to generate potato plants with increased auxin level predominantly in
Various transcriptional networks and plant hormones have been implicated in controlling different aspects of potato tuber formation. Due to its broad impact on many plant developmental processes, a role for auxin in tuber initiation has been suggested but never fully resolved. Here, auxin
Among many factors that regulate potato tuberization, calcium and calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) play an important role. CDPK activity increases at the onset of tuber formation with StCDPK1 expression being strongly induced in swollen stolons. However, not much is known about the
