The generation of new hybrid varieties of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is the most widely used breeding method for this species and requires at least seven self-fertilization cycles to generate stable parent lines. The development of doubled haploids aims at obtaining completely homozygous lines in a single generation, although, to date, routine commercial application has not been possible in this species. In contrast, obtaining doubled haploid lines via gynogenesis has been successfully implemented in recalcitrant crops such as melon, cucumber, pumpkin, loquat and walnut. This review provides an overview of the requirements and advantages of gynogenesis as an inducer of haploidy in different agricultural crops, with the purpose of assessing the potential for its application in tomato breeding. Successful cases of gynogenesis variants involving in vitro culture of unfertilized ovules, use of 60Co-irradiated pollen, in vivo haploid inducers and wide hybridization are presented, suggesting that these methodologies could be implemented in tomato breeding programs to obtain doubled haploids.

Coffee is a crop of global relevance. Indirect somatic embryogenesis has allowed plants of different coffee genotypes to be massively regenerated. The culture medium composition can affect the calli characteristics that are generated and their ability to form somatic embryos. This research aimed to determine the influence of the type of callus, growth regulators, and phytagel concentration on the embryogenic capacity of the Colombia variety. Leaf explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) (0.5–1.0 mg L−1), benzylaminopurine (BAP, 1.0 mg L−1), and phytagel (2.3–5.0 g L−1). The explants generated two types of calli: friable (beige, soft, watery, easy disintegration, polyhedral parenchyma cells) and compact (white, hard, low water content, difficult disintegration, elongated parenchyma cells). About 68% of the total callus generated was compact; this type of callus produced a greater number of embryos (71.3) than the friable one (29.2). The number of differentiated embryos was significantly affected by the concentration of phytagel; higher concentrations (5.0 g L−1) resulted in larger quantities (73.7). The highest number of embryos (127.47) was obtained by combining 1.0 mg L−1 2,4-D, 1.0 mg L−1 BAP, 5.0 g L−1 phytagel, and compact callus.

Existen pocos estudios acerca de métodos para evaluar la viabilidad y germinación de semillas de cactáceas, información necesaria para planear su conservación y preservación en su hábitat o sobrevivencia por periodos largos en condiciones ambientales desfavorables o de almacenamiento. En el presente trabajo se exploró la viabilidad de las semillas de las especies mexicanas amenazadas Echinocactus platyacanthus, Ferocactus pilosus, Lophophora williamsii y Echinocactus grusonii con cloruro 2, 3, 5-trifenil tetrazolio (TZ) y la eficiencia de su germinación in vitro y ex vitro. Se emplearon semillas almacenadas por tres años a temperatura ambiente; la viabilidad se determinó para diferentes concentraciones de TZ. La tasa de germinación y el índice de velocidad germinativa (IVG) en las cuatro especies de cactáceas se evaluó con diferentes sustratos. La viabilidad de la semilla de E. platyacanthus fue de 87,5 % con cloruro de tetrazolio al 0,1 %. Para F. pilosus se obtuvo el 98 % de germinación en tierra de monte-tezontle sin escarificación; el IVG fue de 4,03 semillas por día, mientras que E. grusonii escarificada con ácido sulfúrico durante 1 min. germinó mejor (100 %) en tierra, una mezcla de monte-tezontle y arena; ambas especies mostraron un IVG de 8,3 y 8,1 semillas por día, respectivamente. Hubo una relación positiva entre la prueba de viabilidad con tetrazolio y la prueba de germinación. Se obtuvieron patrones topológicos de tinción para cada especie; se establecieron métodos de reproducción que podrán ayudar en la conservación de estas especies en peligro de extinción.
