Abstract
In vitro androgenesis is a unique model for producing homozygous doubled haploid plants. The use of haploid biotechnology accelerates to obtain of doubled haploid plants, which is very important in rice breeding. The purpose of this work is to improve the production of doubled haploids in rice anther culture in vitro and selection of doubled haploid plants with valuable traits. The study the influence of nutrient media on the production of calli and plant regeneration processes in anther culture of 35 rice genotypes was revealed a significant influence of nutrient media on callus production. It was shown that the addition to culture medium phytohormones ratio with high level of cytokinin (5.0 mg/L BAP) and a low level of auxin (0.5 mg/L NAA), supplemented with amino acid composition promotes high production of green regenerated plants (68.75%) compared to albino plants (31.25%). As a result, doubled haploid lines of the glutinous variety Violetta were selected, which characterized by a low amylose content variation (from 1.86 to 2.80%). These doubled haploids are superior to the original variety in some yield traits and represent valuable breeding material.

Xia X, Liu L, Cai K, Song X, Yue W, Wang J. A splicing site change between exon 5 and 6 of the nuclear-encoded chloroplast-localized HvYGL8 gene results in reduced chlorophyll content and plant height in barley. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1327246.

Abstract
The chloroplast is an important cellular organelle and metabolic hub, which is not only responsible for plant photosynthesis but is also involved in the de novo biosynthesis of pigments, fatty acids, and hormone metabolisms. Several genes that are responsible for rice leaf color variations have been reported to be directly or indirectly involved in chlorophyll biosynthesis and chloroplast development, whereas a few genes have been functionally confirmed to be responsible for leaf color changes in barley at the molecular level. In this study, we obtained a yellow leaf and dwarf ygl8 mutant from the progeny of Morex (a variety of barley) seeds treated with EMS. We performed bulked-segregant analysis (BSA) and RNA-seq analysis and targeted a UMP kinase encoding gene, YGL8, which generated a splicing site change between exon 5 and 6 of YGL8 due to a G to A single-nucleotide transition in the 5th exon/intron junction in the ygl8 mutant. The splicing site change between exon 5 and 6 of YGL8 had no effects on chloroplast subcellular localization but resulted in an additional loop in the UMP kinase domain, which might disturb the access of the substrates. On one hand, the splicing site change between exon 5 and 6 of YGL8 downregulated the transcriptional expression of chloroplast-encoded genes and chlorophyll-biosynthesis-related genes in a temperature-dependent manner in the ygl8 mutant. On the other hand, the downregulation of bioactive GA-biosynthesis-related GA20ox genes and cell-wall-cellulose-biosynthesis-related CesA genes was also observed in the ygl8 mutant, which led to a reduction in plant height. Our study will facilitate the understanding of the regulation of leaf color and plant height in barley.

Low-Temperature-Mediated Promoter Methylation Relates to the Expression of TaPOR2D, Affecting the Level of Chlorophyll Accumulation in Albino Wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.). Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:14697.

Abstract
Chlorophyll is an indispensable photoreceptor in plant photosynthesis. Its anabolic imbalance is detrimental to individual growth and development. As an essential epigenetic modification, DNA methylation can induce phenotypic variations, such as leaf color transformation, by regulating gene expression. Albino line XN1376B is a natural mutation of winter wheat cultivar XN1376; however, the regulatory mechanism of its albinism is still unclear. In this study, we found that low temperatures induced albinism in XN1376B. The number of chloroplasts decreased as the phenomenon of bleaching intensified and the fence tissue and sponge tissue slowly dissolved. We identified six distinct TaPOR (protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase) genes in the wheat genome, and TaPOR2D was deemed to be related to the phenomenon of albinism based on the expression in different color leaves (green leaves, white leaves and returned green leaves) and the analysis of promoters' cis-acting elements. TaPOR2D was localized to chloroplasts. TaPOR2D overexpression (TaPOR2D-OE) enhanced the chlorophyll significantly in Arabidopsis, especially at two weeks; the amount of chlorophyll was 6.46 mg/L higher than in WT. The methylation rate of the TaPOR2D promoter in low-temperature albino leaves is as high as 93%, whereas there was no methylation in green leaves. Correspondingly, three DNA methyltransferase genes (TaMET1, TaDRM and TaCMT) were up-regulated in white leaves. Our study clarified that the expression of TaPOR2D is associated with its promoter methylation at a low temperature; it affects the level of chlorophyll accumulation, which probably causes the abnormal development of plant chloroplasts in albino wheat XN1376B. The results provide a theoretical basis for in-depth analysis of the regulation of development of plant chloroplasts and color variation in wheat XN1376B leaves.

Abstract
Haploid plants are of significant interest to crop breeders due to their ability to expedite the development of inbred lines. Chromosome-doubling of haploids, produced by either in vitro or in vivo methods, results in fully homozygous doubled haploids. For nearly five decades, in vitro methods of anther and microspore culture have been attempted in many crops. In rice, in vitro methods are used with some success in japonica cultivars, although indica types have remained recalcitrant to a large extent. This review aims to explore the reasons for the lack of success of in vitro methods in indica rice and discuss new advancements in in vivo haploid induction protocols in other cereals and their relevance to rice. In particular, the current level of understanding of in vivo haploid inducer systems that utilize MTL and CENH3 mutants is analyzed in detail. One notable advantage of in vivo haploid induction systems is that they do not require tissue culture competence. This makes these methods more accessible and potentially transformative for research, offering a pragmatic approach to improving indica rice cultivars. By embracing these in vivo methods and harnessing the power of gene editing technologies like CRISPR/Cas9 systems, breeders can reshape their approach to indica rice improvement.

Abstract
Plastids are a group of essential, heterogenous semi-autonomous organelles characteristic of plants that perform photosynthesis and a diversity of metabolic pathways that impact growth and development. Plastids are remarkably dynamic and can interconvert in response to specific developmental and environmental cues, functioning as a central metabolic hub in plant cells. By far the best studied plastid is the chloroplast, but in recent years the combination of modern techniques and genetic analyses has expanded our current understanding of plastid morphological and functional diversity in both model and non-model plants. These studies have provided evidence of an unexpected diversity of plastid subtypes with specific characteristics. In this review, we describe recent findings that provide insights into the characteristics of these specialized plastids and their functions. We concentrate on the emerging evidence that supports the model that signals derived from particular plastid types play pivotal roles in plant development, environmental, and defense responses. Furthermore, we provide examples of how new technologies are illuminating the functions of these specialized plastids and the overall complexity of their differentiation processes. Finally, we discuss future research directions such as the use of ectopic plastid differentiation as a valuable tool to characterize factors involved in plastid differentiation. Collectively, we highlight important advances in the field that can also impact future agricultural and biotechnological improvement in plants.

Abstract
Plant seeds do not contain differentiated chloroplasts. Upon germination, the seedlings thus need to gain photoautotrophy before storage energies are depleted. This requires the coordinated expression of photosynthesis genes encoded in nuclear and plastid genomes. Chloroplast biogenesis needs to be additionally coordinated with the light regulation network that controls seedling development. This coordination is achieved by nucleus to plastid signals called anterograde and plastid to nucleus signals termed retrograde. Retrograde signals sent from plastids during initial chloroplast biogenesis are also called biogenic signals. They have been recognized as highly important for proper chloroplast biogenesis and for seedling development. The molecular nature, transport, targets, and signalling function of biogenic signals are, however, under debate. Several studies disproved the involvement of a number of key components that were at the base of initial models of retrograde signalling. New models now propose major roles for a functional feedback between plastid and cytosolic protein homeostasis in signalling plastid dysfunction as well as the action of dually localized nucleo-plastidic proteins that coordinate chloroplast biogenesis with light-dependent control of seedling development. This review provides a survey of the developments in this research field, summarizes the unsolved questions, highlights several recent advances, and discusses potential new working modes.

S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine and Cu(II) Impact Green Plant Regeneration Efficiency. Cells 2022; 11:cells11172700.

Abstract
The biological improvement of triticale, a cereal of increasing importance in agriculture, may be accelerated via the production of doubled haploid lines using in vitro culture. Among the relevant factors affecting the culture efficiency are Cu(II) or Ag(I) acting, e.g., as cofactors of enzymes. The copper ions are known to positively affect green plant regeneration efficiency. However, the biochemical basis, mainly its role in the generation of in vitro-induced genetic and epigenetic variation and green plant regeneration efficiency, is not well understood. Here, we employed structural equation modeling to evaluate the relationship between de novo DNA methylation affecting the asymmetric context of CHH sequences, the methylation-sensitive Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism related sequence variation, and the concentration of Cu(II) and Ag(I) ions in induction media, as well as their effect on S-adenosyl-L-methionine perturbations, observed using FTIR spectroscopy, and the green plant regeneration efficiency. Our results allowed the construction of a theory-based model reflecting the biological phenomena associated with green plant regeneration efficiency. Furthermore, it is shown that Cu(II) ions in induction media affect plant regeneration, and by manipulating their concentration, the regeneration efficiency can be altered. Additionally, S-adenosyl-L-methionine is involved in the efficiency of green plant regeneration through methylation of the asymmetric CHH sequence related to de novo methylation. This shows that the Yang cycle may impact the production of green regenerants.

Abstract
Triticum timopheevii Zhuk. is a tetraploid wheat that is utilized worldwide as a valuable breeding source for wheat improvement. Gene-based biotechnologies can contribute to this field; however, T. timopheevii exhibits recalcitrance and albinism in tissue cultures, making this species of little use for manipulation through genetic engineering and genome editing. This study tested various approaches to increasing in vitro somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration, while reducing the portion of albinos in cultures derived from immature embryos (IEs) of T. timopheevii. They included (i) adjusting the balance between 2,4-D and daminozide in callus induction medium; (ii) cultivation using various darkness/illumination schedules; and (iii) inclusion of additional concentrations of copper ions in the tissue culture medium. We achieved a 2.5-fold increase in somatic embryogenesis (up to 80%) when 50 mg L-1 daminozide was included in the callus induction medium together with 3 mg L-1 2,4-D. It was found that the dark cultivation for 20-30 days was superior in terms of achieving maximum culture efficiency; moreover, switching to light in under 2 weeks from culture initiation significantly increased the number of albino plants, suppressed somatic embryogenesis, and decreased the regeneration of green plants. Media containing higher levels of copper ions did not have a positive effect on the regeneration of green plants; contrarily, the elevated concentrations caused albinism in plantlets. The results and relevant conclusions of the present study might be valuable for establishing an improved protocol for the regeneration of green plants in tissue cultures of T. timopheevii.

Abstract
The phenomenon of albinism in wheat androgenesis is linked to the transcriptional repression of specific genes involved in chloroplast biogenesis during the first weeks of in vitro culture. Isolated microspore culture is widely used to accelerate breeding programs and produce new cultivars. However, in cereals and particularly in wheat, the use of this technique is limited due to the high proportion of regenerated albino plantlets. The causes and mechanisms leading to the formation of albino plantlets in wheat remain largely unknown and, to date, no concrete solution has been found to make it possible to overcome this barrier. We performed a molecular study of proplastid-to-chloroplast differentiation within wheat microspore cultures by analyzing the expression of 20 genes specifically involved in chloroplast biogenesis. Their expression levels were compared between two wheat genotypes that exhibit differential capacities to regenerate green plantlets, i.e., Pavon and Paledor, which produce high and low rates of green plants, respectively. We observed that chloroplast biogenesis within wheat microspores was affected as of the very early stages of the androgenesis process. A successful transition from a NEP- to a PEP-dependent transcription during early plastid development was found to be strongly correlated with the formation of green plantlets, while failure of this transition was strongly correlated with the regeneration of albino plantlets. The very low expression of plastid-encoded 16S and 23S rRNAs within plastids of the recalcitrant genotype Paledor suggests a low translation activity in albino plastids. Furthermore, a delay in the activation of the transcription of nuclear encoded key genes like GLK1 related to chloroplast biogenesis was observed in multicellular structures and pro-embryos of the genotype Paledor. These data help to understand the phenomenon of albinism in wheat androgenesis, which appears to be linked to the transcriptional activation of specific genes involved in the initial steps of chloroplast biogenesis that occurs between days 7 and 21 of in vitro culture.

Abstract
In vitro tissue culture plant regeneration is a complicated process that requires stressful conditions affecting the cell functioning at multiple levels, including signaling pathways, transcriptome functioning, the interaction between cellular organelles (retro-, anterograde), compounds methylation, biochemical cycles, and DNA mutations. Unfortunately, the network linking all these aspects is not well understood, and the available knowledge is not systemized. Moreover, some aspects of the phenomenon are poorly studied. The present review attempts to present a broad range of aspects involved in the tissue culture-induced variation and hopefully would stimulate further investigations allowing a better understanding of the phenomenon and the cell functioning.
