GARLIC & HEALTH Half year meeting Munich 30 sept.-2 oct. 2003 WP2: breeding Embryogenesis
WP2: breeding Embryogenesis Objectives • Setting a somatic embryogenesis procedure • Comparative characterisation of plants from somatic embryo-genesis and from classic micro-propagation after meristem culture (as control)
Work plan • Establishment of somatic embryogenesis process for : Rouge de La Réunion, Messidrôme, Morasol & Printanor • Production and provision of embryogenic cell suspensionculturesof these varieties • Genetic evaluation of somatic embryo derived plantsthrough • flow cytometry (P8), • biochemistry (P5), • molecular markers (P1), • morphological and physiological analyses (P8, P9)
Varietal effect on somaticembryogenesis from cell suspension culture
What will be done till 2004 • Paper DP 21 Embryogenic cell suspension cultures as A method for garlic (Allium sativum L.) mass propagation • Characterising the embryogenic process : • Histological studies: achieved • Cytometric studies: running • No maintenance of the material • Field evaluation : running
WP2: breeding Embryogenesis CIRAD • L. Féréol • somatic embryogenesis, histology and flow cytometry, • paper writing • S. Causse • technical assistant • somatic embryogenesis, histology and flow cytometry • M. Roux-Cuvelier • field trials in La Réunion • R. Kahane • paper revision, management
