Abstract
Somatic embryogenesis of Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis Sieb. Et Zucc.), an ecologically and econimically very important conifer species, was hindered by the gradually weakens and fast runaway of the embryogenicity and embryo competence of the embryogenic callus. Brassinolide (BL) has shown the enhancing capability of somatic embryo regeneration. For checking the function of BL in this issue, we applied different concentrations of BL to Korean pine callus materials exhibiting different embryogenic capacities and subsequently monitored the physiological alterations and hormone dynamics of the embryogenic callus. Our study revealed that calli with different embryogenic strengths responded differently to different concentrations of BL, but the effect after the addition of BL was very uniform. The addition of BL during the proliferation phase of embryogenic callus may help to stimulate the biological activity of callus during the proliferation process and improve the level of cell metabolism, which is accompanied by a reduction in storage substances. BL could reduce the level of endogenous auxin IAA in embryogenic callus and increase the level of abscisic acid to regulate cell division and differentiation. In addition, the MDA content in the callus was significantly decreased and the activity of antioxidant enzymes was significantly increased after the addition of BL. During the proliferation of embryogenic callus, BL was added to participate in the metabolism of phenylpropane in the cells and to increase the activity of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and the content of lignin in the cells. We deduced that the proper doses of BL for Korean pine embryogenic callus culture were as follow: calli with low, high and decreasing embryogenicity were subcultured after the addition of 0.75 mg/L, 0.35 mg/L, 2.00 mg/L BL, respectively, during proliferation culture stage.

Abstract
Embryogenic tissue (ET) is important for genetic modification and plant re-generation. The proliferation ability and vigor of ET are crucial for plant propagation via somatic embryogenesis. In this study, ET was induced from mature zygotic embryos in blue spruce (Picea pungens Engelm.). There were significant differences in ET induction between two provenances, i.e. 78.8 ± 12.5% and 62.50 ± 12.8% respectively. Effects of 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D), 6-Benzyl amino-purine (6-BA) and/or sucrose on ET proliferation and somatic embryo (SE) maturation were further investigated with four cell lines. The highest ET proliferation rate reached 1473.7 ± 556.0% biweekly. Concentrations of 2,4-D or 6-BA applied at tissue proliferation stage impacted SE maturation among the cell lines, whereas sucrose showed less effects. The highest rate, 408 ± 230 mature SEs/g FW, was achieved in SE maturation cultures. This research demonstrated that the culture conditions, i.e. the specific concentrations of 2,4-D and BA, at ET proliferation stage affected not only ET growth, but also the quality of ET for SE maturation. This study revealed the necessity and benefit in developing both the general and the genotype-specific protocols for efficient production of mature SEs, or somatic plants in blue spruce.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1116151.

Abstract
Kinnow (Citrus nobilis Lour. × Citrus deliciosa Ten.) needs to be genetically improved for traits such as seedlessness using biotechnological tools. Indirect somatic embryogenesis (ISE) protocols have been reported for citrus improvement. However, its use is restricted due to frequent occurrences of somaclonal variation and low recovery of plantlets. Direct somatic embryogenesis (DSE) using nucellus culture has played a significant role in apomictic fruit crops. However, its application in citrus is limited due to the injury caused to tissues during isolation. Optimization of the explant developmental stage, explant preparation method, and modification in the in vitro culture techniques can play a vital role in overcoming the limitation. The present investigation deals with a modified in ovulo nucellus culture technique after the concurrent exclusion of preexisting embryos. The ovule developmental events were examined in immature fruits at different stages of fruit growth (stages I-VII). The ovules of stage III fruits (>21-25 mm in diameter) were found appropriate for in ovulo nucellus culture. Optimized ovule size induced somatic embryos at the micropylar cut end on induction medium containing Driver and Kuniyuki Walnut (DKW) basal medium with kinetin (KIN) 5.0 mg L-1 and malt extract (ME) 1,000 mg L-1. Simultaneously, the same medium supported the maturation of somatic embryos. The matured embryos from the above medium gave robust germination with bipolar conversion on Murashige and Tucker (MT) medium + gibberellic acid (GA3) 2.0 mg L-1 + ά-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) 0.5 mg L-1 + spermidine 100 mg L-1 + coconut water (CW) 10% (v/v). The bipolar germinated seedlings established well upon preconditioning in a plant bio regulator (PBR)-free liquid medium under the light. Consequently, a cent percent survival of emblings was achieved on a potting medium containing cocopeat:vermiculite:perlite (2:1:1). Histological studies confirmed the single nucellus cell origin of somatic embryos by undergoing normal developmental events. Eight polymorphic Inter Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) markers confirmed the genetic stability of acclimatized emblings. Since the protocol can induce rapid single-cell origin of genetically stable in vitro regenerants in high frequency, it has potential for the induction of solid mutants, besides crop improvement, mass multiplication, gene editing, and virus elimination in Kinnow mandarin.

Abstract
Exogenous glutathione (GSH) promotes the proliferation of embryogenic callus (EC) cells in Korean pine in the course of somatic embryogenesis, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) may play an important role in regulating the proliferation of EC cells by exogenous GSH. However, the concrete metabolic response of ROS is unclear. In this study, two cell lines of Korean pine with high proliferative potential 001#-001 (F, Fast proliferative potential cell line is abbreviated as F) and low proliferative potential 001#-010 (S, Slow proliferative potential cell line is abbreviated as S) were used as test materials. The responses of ROS-related enzymes and substances to exogenous GSH and L-Buthionine-sulfoximine (BSO) were investigated in EC cells. The results showed that the exogenous addition of GSH increased the number of early somatic embryogenesis (SEs) in EC cells of both F and S cell lines, decreased the amount of cell death in both cell lines. Exogenous addition of GSH promoted cell division in both cell lines, increased intracellular superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities, inhibited intracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) production, and increased NO/ROS ratio. In conclusion, the exogenous GSH promoting the proliferation of Korean pine EC cells, the activity of intracellular antioxidant enzymes was enhanced, the ROS level was reduced, and the resistance of cells to stress was enhanced.

Abstract
In the large-scale breeding of conifers, cultivating embryogenic cells with good proliferative capacity is crucial in the process of somatic embryogenesis. In the same cultural environment, the proliferative capacity of different cell lines is significantly different. To reveal the regulatory mechanism of proliferation in woody plant cell lines with different proliferative potential, we used Korean pine cell lines with high proliferative potential 001#-001 (Fast) and low proliferative potential 001#-010 (Slow) for analysis. A total of 17 glutathione-related differentially expressed genes was identified between F and S cell lines. A total of 893 metabolites was obtained from the two cell lines in the metabolomic studies. A total of nine metabolites related to glutathione was significantly upregulated in the F cell line compared with the S cell line. The combined analyses revealed that intracellular glutathione might be the key positive regulator mediating the difference in proliferative capacity between F and S cell lines. The qRT-PCR assay validated 11 differentially expressed genes related to glutathione metabolism. Exogenous glutathione and its synthase inhibitor L-buthionine-sulfoximine treatment assay demonstrated the positive role of glutathione in the proliferation of Korean pine embryogenic cells.

Abstract
Plant regeneration is a well-known capacity of plants occurring either in vivo or in vitro. This potential is the basis for plant micropropagation and genetic transformation as well as a useful system to analyse different aspects of plant development. Recent studies have proven that RNA species with no protein-coding capacity are key regulators of cellular function and essential for cell reprogramming. In this review, the current knowledge on the role of several ncRNAs in plant regeneration processes is summarized, with a focus on cell fate reprogramming. Moreover, the involvement/impact of microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and small-interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in the regulatory networks of cell dedifferentiation, proliferation and differentiation is also analysed. A deeper understanding of plant ncRNAs in somatic cell reprogramming will allow a better modulation of in vitro regeneration processes such as organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis.

Abstract
The embryogenesis capacity of conifer callus is not only highly genotype-dependent, but also gradually lost after long-term proliferation. These problems have seriously limited the commercialization of conifer somatic embryogenesis (SE) technology. In this study, the responsive SE cell line (R-EC), the blocked SE cell line (B-EC), and the loss of SE cell line (L-EC) were studied. The morphological, physiological, transcriptomic, and metabolomic profiles of these three types of cells were analyzed. We found that R-EC had higher water content, total sugar content, and putrescine (Put) content, as well as lower superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and H2O2 content compared to B-EC and L-EC. A total of 2566, 13,768, and 13,900 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 219, 253, and 341 differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) were found in the comparisons of R-EC versus B-EC, R-EC versus B-EC, and B-EC versus L-EC, respectively. These DEGs and DEMs were mainly found to be involved in plant signal transduction, starch and sugar metabolism, phenylpropane metabolism, and flavonoid metabolism. We found that the AUX1 and AUX/IAA families of genes were significantly up-regulated after the long-term proliferation of callus, resulting in higher auxin content. Most phenylpropane and flavonoid metabolites, which act as antioxidants to protect cells from damage, were found to be significantly up-regulated in R-EC.

Abstract
Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is a major regeneration approach for in vitro cultured tissues of plants, including citrus. However, SE capability is difficult to maintain, and recalcitrance to SE has become a major obstacle to plant biotechnology. We previously reported that miR156-SPL modules regulate SE in citrus callus. However, the downstream regulatory pathway of the miR156-SPL module in SE remains unclear. In this study, we found that transcription factors CsAGL15 and CsFUS3 bind to the CsMIR156A promoter and activate its expression. Suppression of csi-miR156a function leads to up-regulation of four target genes, SQUAMOSA PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE (CsSPL) genes, and reduction of SE efficiency. In the short tandem target mimic (STTM)-miR156a overexpression callus (MIM156), the number of amyloplasts and starch content were significantly reduced, and genes involved in starch synthesis and transport were down-regulated. csi-miR172d was down-regulated, whereas the target genes, CsTOE1.1 and CsTOE1.2, which inhibit the expression of starch biosynthesis genes, were up-regulated. In our working model, CsAGL15 and CsFUS3 activate csi-miR156a, which represses CsSPLs and further regulates csi-miR172d and CsTOEs, thus altering starch accumulation in callus cells and regulating SE in citrus. This study elucidates the pathway of miR156-SPLs and miR172-TOEs-mediated regulation of SE, and provides new insights into enhancing SE capability in citrus.

Abstract
Somatic embryogenesis (SE), which leads to the formation of embryonic callus (EC) tissue, is the most promising method for large-scale production and selective breeding of woody plants. However, in many species, SE suffers from low proliferation rates, hindering the production of improved plant materials. One way of improving proliferation rates is achieved by improving the redox status of the culture medium. In this study, we investigated the effects of exogenous glutathione (GSH) and L-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO, the inhibitor of glutathione synthase) on the EC proliferation rate in Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis), using cell lines with both high (F: 001#-001) and low (S: 001#-010) proliferation potential. We found that exogenous GSH promoted cell proliferation in both cell lines, while exogenous BSO inhibited proliferation in both cell lines. At 35 d with exogenous GSH treatment, the fresh weight of F and S cell lines increased by 35.48% and 48.39%, respectively, compared with the control. The exogenous application of GSH increased the intracellular levels of GSH, total GSH (T-GSH), oxidized glutathione (GSSG), ascorbic acid (ASA), total ASA (T-ASA), and the ratios of GSH:T-GSH and ASA:T-ASA in both F and S cell lines. Furthermore, exogenous GSH increased the activity of both glutathione reductase (GR) and dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) while decreasing the activity of ascorbate peroxidase (APX) in both cell lines. It appears that the application of exogenous GSH promotes a reducing cultural environment, which is conducive to EC proliferation in Korean pine. By helping to reveal the mechanism whereby GSH regulates redox homeostasis in Korean pine EC cells, we have laid the foundation for a large-scale breeding of Korean pine somatic embryogenesis technology system.

Morphological and Physiological Indicators for Screening Cell Lines with High Potential for Somatic Embryo Maturation at an Early Stage of Somatic Embryogenesis in Pinus Koraiensis. PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11141867.

Abstract
Many cell lines in the embryogenic callus cannot produce somatic embryos (SEs) even if they meet the optimal SE maturation culture conditions during conifer somatic embryogenesis. This phenomenon hinders the progress of the industrial-scale reproduction of conifers. Therefore, there is an urgent need to obtain morphological and physiological markers to screen embryogenic calli in response to SE maturation conditions. To detect cell lines with high somatic embryogenesis potential during the proliferation process, we counted the number of pro-embryos and early SEs (ESEs) in different cell lines and storage substances, endogenous hormones, and polyamine contents. The results showed that the yield of P. koraiensis SEs was heavily dependent on genotype (p = 0.001). There were high levels of PE III (pro-embryo III) number, ESE number, and soluble protein content, in the response cell lines (R cell lines), which were 1.6-, 3-, and 1.1-fold those of the obstructive cell lines (B cell lines), respectively. The B cell line had high levels of starch, auxin (IAA), Put, Spd, and putrescine: spermine (Put: Spm) compared to the R cell line. In addition, the numbers of PE III, ESEs, and soluble protein content were significantly positively correlated with SE yield. In contrast, the contents of starch, abscisic acid (ABA), Put, Spm, and Spd were significantly negatively correlated with SE yield. To ensure the accuracy of the results, we used nine cell lines to test the results. The PE III and ESE numbers and the Spm and Spd contents were positively correlated with SE yield, while the levels of starch, ABA, IAA, Put: Spd, and Put: Spm were negatively correlated with SE yield. Thus, we recommend using high PE III and ESEs as morphological indicators and low levels of starch, IAA, ABA, and Put: Spm as physiological markers to screen cell lines with a high somatic embryogenesis potential. In addition, we also found that the relationship between Spd, Spm, and SE yield was opposite in the two experimental results. Therefore, we speculate that the differences in Spd and Spm content are mainly affected by genotype. In conclusion, this study obtained the morphological and physiological markers of some high-somatic embryogenic cell lines by comparing the differences between nine somatic embryogenic cell lines. Our results can guide the improvement of conifer somatic embryogenesis technology and can provide a theoretical basis for accelerating the application of biotechnology in large-scale artificial breeding.

Abstract
The increasing concern about ecological impacts of wood preservation chemicals has raised the interest in the natural durability of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) heartwood. Phenolic compounds—stilbenes—have been found to inhibit fungal growth, making heartwood more resistant to decay. There is a strong genetic component in the stilbene content of the heartwood in Scots pine, with a positive correlation between stilbene content in the heartwood of mother trees and their progenies. Vegetative propagation, i.e., somatic embryogenesis (SE) of Scots pine genotypes with high content of stilbenes could provide a way to produce more durable timber, assuming that there is no trade-off between SE propagation and capacity for high stilbene synthesis. To study this, we made SE initiations from parent genotypes with high and low content of stilbenes in their heartwood, using seed embryos from both open-pollinations and controlled crossings as explants. The success of SE was followed from initiation to embling acclimatization, together with measurements of stilbene content in the explants and the established SE lines. The results show that SE can be induced and emblings regenerated from trees with both high and low content of stilbene. Content of stilbenes was generally low in SE cultures and varied widely among the lines. Following the successful initiation, the later phases of SE propagation proceeded with no connection to the parent genotypes or the stilbene level of the ECs and had large variation among SE-lines.

Abstract
As part of the search for biochemical markers of somatic embryogenesis in tissue cultures of olive (Olea europaea L.), peroxidases (POXs) in both the soluble and ionically wall-bound fractions were studied in two reputed olive cultivars (cvs.): "Picholine Marocaine" and "Dahbia". In order to carry out embryogenesis induction, proximal cotyledons were cultured in modified olive medium (OMc) supplemented with 25 μM indole-3-butylic acid (IBA) and 2.5 μM 2-isopentenyladenine (2iP), while distal leaf fragments (somatic explants) were cultured in OMc supplemented with 4.56 µM zeatin riboside (ZR) and 10.25 µM 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). Regarding embryogenic potentials, the zygotic explants (cv. Picholine Marocaine: 43.39%; cv. Dahbia: 53.41%) were more regenerative than the somatic explants (cv. Picholine Marocaine: 13.05%; cv. Dahbia: 19.51%). The enzyme assay showed a higher POX activity in embryogenic calluses (ECs) than in nonembryogenic calluses (NECs) for the zygotic explants in both studied cultivars. When expressed as units per milligram of proteins (U mg-1 proteins), the highest total POXs activities (soluble POXs + ionically wall-bound POXs) were found in the ECs derived from the zygotic explants; for cv. Dahbia, 65% of the enzyme activities came from the ionically wall-bound fractions. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the ECs of the highly active cv. Dahbia were characterized by highly active isoperoxidases that were revealed in four migration zones, particularly a doublet in the A4 zone (Rf 0.70-0.73) present in the ionically wall-bound POXs. The fast-moving anodic POXs of the ionically wall-bound fractions could be adopted as an early electrophoretic test to determine the embryogenesis capacities in olive tissue culture materials. As biochemical markers, the POX enzyme and its profile in fractions, i.e., as soluble POXs and ionically wall-bound POXs, can offer a valuable tool for improving the tissue culture of olive via somatic embryogenesis.

Abstract
Changes in the chemical environment at the maturation stage in Pinus spp. somatic embryogenesis will be a determinant factor in the conversion of somatic embryos to plantlets. Furthermore, the study of biochemical and morphological aspects of the somatic embryos could enable the improvement of somatic embryogenesis in Pinus spp. In the present work, the influence of different amino acid combinations, carbohydrate sources, and concentrations at the maturation stage of Pinus radiata D. Don and Pinus halepensis Mill. was analyzed. In P. radiata, the maturation medium supplemented with 175 mM of sucrose and an increase in the amino acid mixture (1,100 mgL-1 of L-glutamine, 1,050 mgL-1 of L-asparagine, 350 mgL-1 of L-arginine, and 35 mgL-1 of L-proline) promoted bigger embryos, with a larger stem diameter and an increase in the number of roots in the germinated somatic embryos, improving the acclimatization success of this species. In P. halepensis, the maturation medium supplemented with 175 mM of maltose improved the germination of somatic embryos. The increase in the amount of amino acids in the maturation medium increased the levels of putrescine in the germinated somatic embryos of P. halepensis. We detected significant differences in the amounts of polyamines between somatic plantlets of P. radiata and P. halepensis; putrescine was less abundant in both species. For the first time, in P. radiata and P. halepensis somatic embryogenesis, we detected the presence of cadaverine, and its concentration changed according to the species.

Abstract
Somatic embryogenesis is being piloted for the commercial production of genetically improved Norway spruce (Picea abies L. Karst) forest regeneration material in Finland. The main challenge to making the process commercially relevant is the dependence on time-consuming and highly skilled manual labor. Automation and scaling up are needed to improve cost-effectiveness. Moving from the proliferation of embryogenic tissue on semisolid media to suspension cultures could improve process scalability. In a series of four experiments (overall, with 20 cell lines, 4-9 per experiment), the suitability of proliferation in suspension culture for Norway spruce somatic embryogenesis was evaluated based on the growth rate, indicators of stress conditions, good-quality cotyledonary embryo yield, and embling survival in a greenhouse. The proliferation rate in suspension was found equal to on semisolid media, but with a remarkable genotypic variation. Embryogenic tissue matured directly without pre-treatments from suspension onto semisolid media produced lower numbers of good-quality embryos than tissue matured from semisolid media. Rinsing the suspension-grown tissue with hormone-free liquid media before maturation improved embryo yield, bringing it closer to that of semisolid-grown tissue. Decreasing 6-benzylaminopurine and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid concentrations in suspension proliferation media to 0.5 or 0.1 times those in semisolid media did not affect tissue growth and did not improve embryo production. The hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) content and guaiacol peroxidase activity were elevated in suspension cultures compared with semisolid medium, which had the same plant growth regulator content. In one experiment out of four, the greenhouse survival of germinants was lower when proliferation was carried out in full strength suspension than on semisolid media; in other experiments the survival rates were equal.

Abstract
Korean pine is the dominant species of Korean pine forests. It is an economically valuable species that yields oil, high-quality timber and nuts, and it offers great prospects for further development. Complete regenerated plants of Korean pine were obtained via somatic embryogenesis using megagametophytes as the explant. The seeds of 27 families of Korean pine were collected to induce embryogenic lines. We compared the effects of explant collection time, family and medium components (concentrations of sucrose, plant growth regulators and acid-hydrolyzed casein) on embryogenic lines induction. The effects of plant growth regulators and L-glutamine contents on the proliferation and maturation of embryogenic cell lines were studied, and the germinating ability of different cell lines was evaluated. The embryogenic lines induction percentage of Korean pine reached 33.33%. When 4.52 μmol·L−1 2,4-D and 2.2 μmol·L−1 6-BA were added to the medium of embryogenic lines proliferation, the ability of embryo maturation was the best (cell line 001#-100 was 135.71·g−1 fresh weight). Adding 1–1.5g L−1 L-glutamine to the proliferation medium can improve the ability of embryo maturation (cell line 001#-100 was 165.63·g−1 fresh weight). The germination percentage of the three cell lines tested was significant, and the highest was 66%. We report on successful regeneration and cryopreservation methods for somatic embryos of Korean pine. This technology could be used to propagate the excellent germplasm resources of Korean pine and to establish multi-varietal forestry.
