Serial title, monograph or event: | Plants | Volume: | 12 | Issue: | 15 | Abstract: | Tamarillo is a solanaceous tree that has been extensively studied in terms of in vitro clonal propagation, namely somatic embryogenesis. In this work, a protocol of indirect somatic embryogenesis was applied to obtain embryogenic and non-embryogenic callus from leaf segments. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to analyze the primary metabolome of these distinct calli to elucidate possible differentiation mechanisms from the common genetic background callus. Standard multivariate analysis methods were then applied, and were complemented by univariate statistical methods to identify differentially expressed primary metabolites and related metabolic pathways. The results showed carbohydrate and lipid metabolism to be the most relevant in all the calli assayed, with most discriminant metabolites being fructose, glucose and to a lesser extent choline. The glycolytic rate was higher in embryogenic calli, which shows, overall, a higher rate of sugar catabolism and a different profile of phospholipids with a choline/ethanolamine analysis. In general, our results show that a distinct primary metabolome between embryogenic and non-embryogenic calli occurs and that intracellular levels of fructose and sucrose and the glucose to sucrose ratio seem to be good candidates as biochemical biomarkers of embryogenic competence. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/112251 | ISSN: | 2223-7747 | DOI: | 10.3390/plants12152869 | Rights: | openAccess |
