Abstract

A tissue culturing method includes following steps: providing a chopped gametophyte, generating calluses by culturing the chopped gametophyte, and performing apogamic regeneration of sporophytes, by culturing the calluses in a culture fluid to develop the sporophytes from the calluses. The present invention also provides a tissue culturing method of ferns and an explant.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A tissue culturing method of Davalliaceae family ferns, comprising following steps:
providing a chopped gametophyte of Davalliaceae family ferns;
generating a callus, by shaking culturing the chopped gametophyte of Davalliaceae family ferns in a liquid medium which comprises ½ MS salts and 20 g/L sucrose, till the chopped gametophyte of Davalliaceae family ferns generates the callus; and
performing apogamic regeneration of a sporophyte, by shaking culturing the calluses in a culture fluid which comprises ½ MS salts, 20 g/L sucrose, and 1-2 mg/L N6-(delta 2-isopentenyl)-adenine (2ip), to develop the sporophyte from the callus.

2. The tissue culturing method of claim 1 , wherein the step of generating the callus further comprises:
inducing the chopped gametophyte of Davalliaceae family ferns to generate the callus; and
proliferating the generated callus.

3. The tissue culturing method of claim 1 , wherein the step of apogamic regeneration of the sporophyte further comprises:
sporophyte induction, by inducing the callus to form the sporophyte; and
sporophyte proliferation, by proliferating the formed sporophyte.

4. The tissue culturing method of claim 1 , wherein the step of apogamic regeneration the sporophyte comprises:
culturing the callus in a first culture fluid which comprises ½ MS salts, 20 g/L sucrose, and 1-2 mg/L N6-(delta 2-isopentenyl)-adenine (2ip), to induce the generating of the sporophyte from the callus; and
culturing the generated sporophyte in a second culture fluid to induce the proliferation of the generated sporophyte, wherein the first culture fluid and the second culture fluid comprise different compositions.

5. The tissue culturing method of claim 4 , wherein the second culture fluid comprises no cytokinin, or comprises cytokinin being selected from the group consisting of N6-(delta 2-isopentenyl)-adenine (2ip), 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) and kinetin.

6. The tissue culturing method of claim 1 further comprising:
acclimatizing of the sporophyte, by isolating the sporophyte from the culture fluid; and
transplanting the sporophyte.

7. The tissue culturing method of claim 1 further comprising transplanting the sporophyte in a solid medium till a plant is grown.
