| Abstract | This study provides a novel desiccation indicator for somatic embryos and an efficient system for somatic seedling production in Picea asperata Mast. Picea asperata Mast. is a widely distributed native spruce in China with outstanding wood properties and adaptability. In this study, we established an effective system to propagate plantlets through somatic embryogenesis in P. asperata. The effects of cone collection date, seed family, and plant growth regulators on the initiation of embryonal masses (EM) were analyzed. Besides the significant effects of seed family and cone collection date on EM initiation, the highest induction frequency was obtained with modified Litvay medium (MLV) containing 10 µM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 5 µM 6-benzylaminopurine. The best tissue proliferation in suspension cultures was obtained with an inoculum density of 1:7 (v/v, sedimented cells:liquid medium) after 9 days in culture. The best medium for somatic embryo (SE) maturation was MLV supplemented with 105 µM (±)-abscisic acid, 5% polyethylene glycol 4000, 3% sucrose, 0.1% activated charcoal (AC), 0.05% l-glutamine, 0.1% casein acid hydrolysate, and 0.4% gellan gum. In this medium, 415 ± 103 SEs with well-developed cotyledons were obtained per gram (fresh weight) of EM. After partial desiccation treatment under low light intensity, somatic embryos, depending on their color change, were divided into green cotyledonary embryos (GCEs) and non-green cotyledonary embryos (NGCEs). These embryos, along with non-desiccated SEs as controls, were germinated on 1/2 MLV supplemented with 2% sucrose, 0.2% AC, 0.05% l-glutamine, and 0.6% gellan gum. Only GCEs, with red radicles, produced plantlets at the highest rates (>74.5%) among all of the treatments. This efficient system of somatic seedling production in P. asperata includes screened culture factors and a novel desiccation indicator to ensure SE quality before germination. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
