Abstract
This research aimed to study how exposing somatic embryos of Araucaria angustifolia to cold temperatures in vitro could enhance somatic embryogenesis. The somatic embryos were induced from immature zygotic embryos, grown for 120 days, and then subjected to 4.5°C for 0, 2, 4, 8, or 16 days. After the cold treatment, the embryogenic cultures were returned to 25±2°C for 20 days and examined using light microscopy and cytochemistry. It was found that the embryogenic cultures at the PEM III stage did not show further development, and the growth of the embryogenic masses was negatively affected in the longer-duration cold treatment. Overcoming these challenges in the somatic embryogenesis protocol for A. angustifolia requires further integrative investigations on epigenetic events driving the zygotic embryo development.
期刊介绍:
The Brazilian Academy of Sciences (BAS) publishes its journal, Annals of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (AABC, in its Brazilianportuguese acronym ), every 3 months, being the oldest journal in Brazil with conkinuous distribukion, daking back to 1929. This scienkihic journal aims to publish the advances in scienkihic research from both Brazilian and foreigner scienkists, who work in the main research centers in the whole world, always looking for excellence.
Essenkially a mulkidisciplinary journal, the AABC cover, with both reviews and original researches, the diverse areas represented in the Academy, such as Biology, Physics, Biomedical Sciences, Chemistry, Agrarian Sciences, Engineering, Mathemakics, Social, Health and Earth Sciences.
