ISOZYME CHANGES DURING MORPHOGENESIS IN THE IN VITRO CULTURES OF PANICUM MAXIMUM J.
Main Article Content
Abstract
Callus cultures derived from mature embryos and inflorescence explants of guinea grass [cv. GG2), Panicum maximum J. at different stages of development were used to study the patterns of iso esterases and iso acidphosphatse, Isozyme patterns were found to vary with all developmental stages studied. Twelve isoesterases were detected in the embryogenic calli. With the germination of embryoids into plantlets, only two of these isozymes were retained. Acid phosphatase was found to be organ and tissue specific. The novel isozymes that appeared in the embryogenic and organogenic calli can be used as marker to distinguish between embryogenic and non-embryogenic calli.
