The ability to induce somatic embryogenesis in leaves from mature trees gives the possibility to compare the performance of the parent trees and their progenies at the same age and place of test. Somatic seedlings were regenerated from five selected cork oak trees and from young plants of their half-sib progenies. They were planted in the field conjointly with zygotic seedlings of these families, to test the comparisons somatic vs. zygotic origin and somatic from mature trees vs. somatic from juvenile seedlings. The effect of genotype and kind of progeny will be studied in a complete factorial design; therefore the field trial comprised 15 treatments arranged in five completely randomised blocks. Each experimental unit included three plants that were distributed following a row and column pattern. Fist survival and height data after six and twelve months of establishment are provided. All plants from seeds survived while almost the half of somatic seedlings died after the winter and they were replaced. Almost 70% of these plants survived after the following summer. There were no differences between somatic seedlings of mature or juvenile origin. Zygotic seedlings doubled the height of the somatic ones after one year in the field, and within these plants those of mature origin grew slightly more than those of juvenile source. Differences due to genotype and family effects were noticeable. No apparent morphological alterations were detected among the three kinds of tested progenies.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Álvarez, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alonso, P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cortizo, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CELESTINO, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HERNÁNDEZ, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TORIBIO, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ordás, R J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic transformation of selected mature cork oak (Quercus suber L.) trees.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant cell reports</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agrobacterium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cork oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fagaceae</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Somatic embryogenesis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tree genetic transformation</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">23</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">218-223</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3498510479</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A transformation system for selected mature cork oak (Quercus suber L.) trees using Agrobacterium tumefaciens has been established.

The highest transformation efficiency (4%) was obtained when freshly isolated explants were inoculated with A. tumefaciens strain AGL1. Evidence of stable transgene integration was obtained by PCR for the nptII and uidA genes, Southern blotting and expression of the uidA gene. The transgenic embryos were germinated and successfully transferred to soil.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15185122</style></accession-num></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HERNÁNDEZ, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CELESTINO, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TORIBIO, M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetative propagation of Quercus suber L. by somatic embryogenesis.

Following a basic protocol previously defined for leaves taken from seedlings of this species, several factors were studied to improve the response. The induction frequency was significantly higher when the length of exposure to growth regulators was increased from 7 to 30 days. The combined application of NAA and BAP was essential for induction. Although both regulators had a very significant influence, their interaction was not significant, suggesting independent roles. Leaf size had a crucial effect, because beyond a certain threshold, embryogenesis could not be obtained. Embryogenic lines were maintained via repetitive embryogenesis on hormone-free medium for more than 2 years.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12789519</style></accession-num></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HERNÁNDEZ, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CELESTINO, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ALEGRE, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TORIBIO, M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetative propagation of Quercus suber L. by somatic embryogenesis.

The induction of somatic embryogenesis from leaves of epicormic shoots was significantly affected by genotype, harvesting time and their interaction. Leaves from all five selected trees produced somatic embryos when the segments of branches used as sources of epicormic shoots were collected in May. Genotype, but not the level of photosynthetically active radiation, affected the proliferation of the embryogenic lines and the number of detachable embryos that could be obtained from them. Genotype also affected several steps leading to conversion of somatic embryos, from germination to complete acclimatisation of somatic seedlings. Almost 40% of the somatic embryos from all lines germinated, showing coordinated root and shoot growth. Although the mean percentage of recovery for the whole process was low, plants could be regenerated from four of the five trees tested.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12789520</style></accession-num></record></records></xml>
