    Biobanking of vegetable genetic resources by in vitro conservation and cryopreservation
    (Springer Science+Business Media B.V., 2020) Ruta, Claudia; Lambardi, Maurizio; Özüdoğru, Elif Aylin
    Today, application of in vitro culture by means of slow growth storage of shoot cultures and cryopreservation of organs, tissues and cells in liquid nitrogen presents a remarkable strategic tool to support medium- and long-term conservation of plant genetic resources. Over the last 30 years, considerable progresses have been made in the development of both methods that are currently considered as ex situ conservation strategies, complementary to traditional seed banks and in-field clonal collections. Efficient protocols were developed for the conservation of a large number of crops, including strategically-important vegetables, such as garlic, artichoke, asparagus, cassava, Jerusalem artichoke, mint, potato, sweet potato, chicory, taro, thyme and yam. As a consequence, more than 45,000 accessions of vegetable crops are maintained in 22 genetic resources conservation centers (biobanks), located in 16 countries and 6 continents (Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, North and South America). Approximately 4/5 of these accessions are maintained in vitro by means of slow growth storage of shoot cultures, but cryopreservation is also constantly growing, with almost 8300 vegetable accessions being stored in liquid nitrogen at ? 196 °C.

    Long-term preservation of Cicer arietinum L. germplasm by in vitro propagation and cryopreservation
    (Springer, 2020) Ruta, Claudia; De Mastro, Giuseppe; Tarraf, Waed; Ancona, Simona; Tagarelli, Anna; Özüdoğru, Elif Aylin; Lambardi, Maurizio
    Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important pulse worldwide. This crop plays a significant role to maintain soil fertility through symbiotic N fixation, as well as in the Mediterranean diet for its important content of noble protein. In South Italy, particularly in the Puglia region, many traditional landraces are still cultivated in marginal areas, becoming therefore at strong risk of genetic erosion or even extinction. In vitro culture is a useful and innovative approach for the collection and the long-term preservation of threatened germplasm by means of the cryopreservation technology, as ex situ conservation strategy complementary to traditional ones. The aim of this study was to develop an efficient protocol for the multiplication and cryopreservation of two accessions of an Apulian black chickpea threatened landrace. Seeds of Apulian black chickpea were inoculated on agarized sucrose-free nutrient medium. The cotyledonary node and axillary buds were excised from the seedlings and then cultured on the same medium, supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine and sucrose. After three subculture cycles, shoot tips from in vitro proliferated shoots were induced to rooting on IBA or used for germplasm conservation by comparing three cryopreservation techniques, i.e. PVS2-vitrification, droplet-vitrification and V-cryoplate. The results are very promising in terms of explant survival. However, the study should now progress to optimize a recovery medium, able to further improve shoot regrowth rates and plantlet formation in post-cryopreservation. © 2019, Springer Nature B.V.
