Abstract
<p>Callus Induction and In Vitro Plant Regeneration of<br />Wheat Genotypes (Triticum aestivum L.). Atmitri<br />Sisharmini, Aniversari Apriana, and Sustiprijatno. Development<br />of a reliable in vitro plant regeneration procedure for<br />wheat is a prerequisite for its improvement by genetic transformation.<br />The purpose of this study was to obtain methods<br />of callus induction and regeneration of wheat genotypes.<br />This experiment was conducted at ICABIOGRAD. Immature<br />embryos from four wheat genotypes, ie Perdix, Naxos Wew,<br />Combi and Fasan were used to induce callus formation and<br />regeneration rate of callus. For the preparation of callus<br />induction medium, MS-L7 basal medium was supplemented<br />with combination of growth regulators 2,4 dichlorophenoxy<br />acetic acid (2,4-D) and 4-amino-3,5,6-trichloropicolinic acid<br />(picloram). While, plant regeneration medium was prepared<br />using MS basal medium supplemented with combination of<br />three growth regulators i.e. IAA, BAP and kinetin. The results<br />showed that genotype, in vitro culture medium and growth<br />regulators played a dominant role in callus induction and<br />plantlet regeneration. All the 4 genotypes responded positively<br />to callus induction, however, variability was observed<br />not only among the genotypes but also within callus<br />induction medium used. The best induction medium was<br />the MS-L7 basal medium supplemented with combination of<br />phytohormon 4 mg/l 2,4-D + 2 mg/l picloram (GIK-3) which<br />showed 100% callus induction frequency. Whereas, the best<br />regeneration medium was shown by MS basal medium with<br />combination of phytohormon 1.5 mg/l BAP dan 0.5 mg/l<br />kinetin (RG3). Regarding plant regeneration, Perdix was the<br />most responsive genotype to be regenerated with regeneration<br />frequency of 57.33%. The successfully acclimatized<br />planlets in greenhouse were obtained from Perdix and<br />Naxos Wew genotypes. These results will potentially facilitate<br />genetic transformation research of wheat in Indonesia.</p>
