| dc.description.abstract | ABSTRACT The present investigation was undertaken with an objective of enhancing the frequency of plant regeneration in broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) and assessing their genetic fidelity. A high efficiency plant regeneration protocol has been developed from hypocotyl, cotyledon, leaf and petiole explants in broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica). The green house grown seedlings from 18-20 days old leaf and petiole explants were excised. The explants were surface sterilized and cultured on shoot induction medium. A high efficiency of shoot regeneration was observed in leaf (62.96%) and petiole (91.11%) explants on MS medium supplemented with 4.0 mg/l BAP + 0.5 mg/l NAA and 4.5 mg/l BAP + 0.019 mg/l NAA, respectively. The hypocotyl and cotyledon explants were excised from the in vitro grown seedlings and cultured on shoot regeneration on MS medium supplemented with 2.0 μM TDZ + 0.5 μM IAA and 2.0 μM TDZ + 0.59 mM adenine, respectively. The hypocotyl explants showed high frequency of shoot regeneration (96.09%) as compare to cotyledon explants (88.88%). MS medium supplemented with 0.20 mg/l NAA was found to be best for root regeneration (93.99%) from in vitro developed shoots. The regenerated plantlets were acclimatized successfully on cocopeat. A protocol for high frequency plant regeneration has been standardized. Genetic fidelity of the regenerated plantlets were studied using RAPD. Genomic DNA was isolated from the leaves of randomly selected 20 in vitro raised plantlets and from mother plant of broccoli using CTAB method with some modifications. The quantified DNA was then subjected to PCR and a total of 21 primers were used for genetic fidelity studies. Among the 21 primers initially screened, 15 produced clear and scorable amplification products. A total of 66 fragments were amplified by 15 random primers out of which 56 were found to be monomorphic and a high degree of monomorphism (88.45%) was observed among in vitro raised plantlets and from mother plant of broccoli. On an average, 2.96 amplified fragments were observed per primer. Thus the technique of RAPD-PCR was found to be reliable to assess the genetic fidelity of tissue culture raised plantlets and from mother plant of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica). | en_US |
