D.) Isolation and molecular characterization of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase gene in Cattleya spp. Miss Chanthra Timclub Abstract The plant hormone ethylene is known to stimulate a wide variety of plant response to flower senescence and fruit ripening. A gene in ethylene synthetic pathway, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase gene, was identified from flower of Cattleya spp. Lucky Strike variety. In this study, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) methods were used to amplify the ACC oxidase sequences. The cDNA of ACC oxidase (ACO) was cloned and characterized. The cDNA from Cattleya-ACOs, open reading frame (ORF) and 3’untranslated region (3’UTR), were 1,081 nucleotides in length. The sequence was further analysed by comparing with other ACC oxidase genes in GenBank Database. The results show that major difference between Cattleya spp. located at 3’UTR while the amino acid sequence alignment indicated high percent identity at 96.7%. In addition, the amino acid sequence of Cattleya-ACC oxidase was compared with 11 ACC oxidase genes of other plants from Genbank database. Ascorbate binding domains, ACC binding domain, ferrous ion binding domain, bicarbonate binding domain, leucine zipper and basic zipper domain were found in all ACOs.

With its beauty, large flower, fragrance and colorful flowers, it is widely known as Queen of the orchid (Buranachonnabud, 1991; Papp, 2004). Although well adapted and cultivated in various areas around the world including Thailand, Cattleya flower has short vast life. This limits its market and popularity. There is little known about its senescence and the role of ethylene in the process. Therefore, a gene in ethylene synthetic pathway, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase gene is identified and characterized. This study will provide a basic knowledge of Cattleya senescence. Objective 1. Isolate ACC oxidase (ACO) gene from Cattleya spp. flower 2. Characterize ACC oxidase (ACO) gene from Cattleya spp. flower Place and Duration All experiment was done at Plant Genetic Engineering Unit, Kasetsart University Kamphaengsaen Campus, Nakhorn Pathom. The experiment began in November, 2003 and completed in January, 2005. 2 LITERATURE REVIEW Cattleya Cattleyas were among the first tropical orchids to come into cultivation. Their culture is often used as the basis for comparison with other types of orchids, being highly prized for their large blooms. They have well-adaptation to their habitat organs include thickened stems for food storage called pseudo-bulbs, roots that cling to the substrate to hold the plant in place, and thick, leathery leaves that transpire little water (Rittershausen, 1999; Ombrello, no date). 1. Origin Most of the Cattleyas have been developed from plants native of the America’s, especially Central and South America. The species range through tropical across the Panama Isthmus as far north as the rainforests of Mexico, but the best are found in the steamy Brazilian rainforests. The epiphytic or air plants grow on the trunks and stout branches of the forest trees, in their wild state existing for

Biotechnological strategies of propagation may satisfy the market demand and are useful for conservation programs. Hypothesis: Vigorous seedlings of S. hernandezii can be produced in vitro by asymbiotic seed germination techniques and the addition of chitosan to the culture medium in the temporary immersion system (RITA®) and in semi-solid medium systems. Methods: The first step was the in vitro germination of seeds obtained from a mature capsule of wild plants, followed by multiplication via adventitious protocorm induction known as protocorm-like bodies, using plant growth regulators. For this purpose, we utilized Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium amended with 0.5 mg/L α-Naphthaleneacetic acid, combined with different concentrations of 6- Benzylaminepurine (1, 3, and 5 mg/L).

La familia Orchidaceae es uno de los grupos de Magnoliophyta de mayor distribución a nivel mundial, ocupan una amplia gama de nichos, desde el medio terrestre hasta las copas de los árboles (epífitas). Históricamente esta familia ha recibido mucha atención dada la belleza de las flores de algunos de sus miembros, lo que ha llevado con el tiempo a buscar el conocimiento, entre otras cosas, sobre su distribución; por lo que han aparecido listas de especies para varios lugares de América y el mundo. En Venezuela, exceptuando los tratamientos que a nivel general se ha dado a la familia, son escasos los estudios a nivel local y en particular en la cordillera de la costa; razón por la que en este trabajo se presenta una lista actualizada de las especies de Orchidaceae conocidas hasta el presente en la flora del estado Sucre.

Essas ca- racterísticas contribuíram para posicioná-la entre as famílias de plantas mais importantes na horticultura, de- vido às espécies utilizadas em paisagismo e como flores de corte, e também por serem objeto da dedicação de cultivadores amadores e colecionadores (Goldblatt e Manning, 2008). No entanto, as iridáceas são conhecidas desde a Antiguidade também por seus valores alimentícios, principalmente pela espécie Crocus sativus, da qual se obtém o valioso açafrão. As iridáceas compreendem c. 2030 espécies distribuídas por todos os continentes, principalmente no hemisfério Sul e, preferencialmente, em ambientes que sofrem seca sazonal (Goldblatt et al., 2008).
