10 th <str<strong>on</strong>g>Symposium</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Flora</strong> <strong>of</strong> Sou<strong>the</strong>astern <strong>Serbia</strong> <strong>and</strong> Neighbouring regi<strong>on</strong>s,Vlasina 17 to 20 June 2010germinati<strong>on</strong>, but <strong>on</strong>ly 10 % embryos retained haploidity after 3 years subculturing,while 10.5 % were diploid, 73.5 % tetraploid <strong>and</strong> 6 % octaploid <strong>on</strong> horm<strong>on</strong>e-freemedium. Unlike those from an<strong>the</strong>r culture, after 3 years <strong>of</strong> subculturing <strong>on</strong> horm<strong>on</strong>efreemedium, <strong>the</strong>re were no haploid regenerant from an<strong>the</strong>r culture, while 8.5 %were diploid, 81 % tetraploid <strong>and</strong> 10.5 % octaploid. Since <strong>the</strong> zygotic embryocotyled<strong>on</strong>s accumulate <strong>the</strong> highest amount <strong>of</strong> aescin, it is currently extracted from<strong>the</strong> seeds <strong>of</strong> horse <strong>on</strong> a large scale. As this material is available during <strong>on</strong>ly shortperiod <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year, we studied <strong>the</strong> possibility <strong>of</strong> using plant tissue culture to obtainaescin. For this purpose, <strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>tent <strong>of</strong> aescin in horse chestnut <strong>and</strong>rogenic embryoswas studied. Aescin c<strong>on</strong>tent was found to be dependent <strong>on</strong> <strong>the</strong> stage <strong>of</strong> <strong>and</strong>rogenicembryo development <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> type <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> phytoregulator supplemented to <strong>the</strong>nutritive medium. In <strong>the</strong> absence <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> phytoregulators, <strong>and</strong>rogenic embryos at <strong>the</strong>globular stage <strong>of</strong> development c<strong>on</strong>tained approximately four times less aescin thanthose at <strong>the</strong> cotyled<strong>on</strong>ary stage. In c<strong>on</strong>clusi<strong>on</strong>, horse chestnut <strong>and</strong>rogenic embryosproduce high amount <strong>of</strong> aescin, which can be manipulated by <strong>the</strong> additi<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong>phytoregulators. We find this approach promising for resolving <strong>the</strong> problemsassociated with commercial producti<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> aescin. This method enables high biomassproducti<strong>on</strong>, even availability <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> phytohemical all <strong>the</strong> year round, simplificati<strong>on</strong><strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> extracti<strong>on</strong> procedure <strong>and</strong> manipulati<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> factors affecting sec<strong>on</strong>darymetabolite biosyn<strong>the</strong>sis.Chenopodium rubrum L. , a short-day plant, as a modelplant for physiological <strong>and</strong> biochemical investigati<strong>on</strong>s <strong>of</strong><strong>on</strong>togenesis in vitroMitrović, A., Živanović, B., Dučić, T., Bogdanović Pristov, J., Radotić, K.Institut za multidisciplinarna istraživanja, Beograd, Srbijamita@imsi.rsChenopodium rubrum L. bel<strong>on</strong>gs to <strong>the</strong> family Chenopodiaceae, genusChenopodium. This is a short-day weedy annual, distributed in Europe, Asia <strong>and</strong>Nor<strong>the</strong>rn America. Ecotypes <strong>of</strong> this species differ in <strong>the</strong>ir photoperiodiccharacteristics. Sel. 184 is a qualitative short day plant, with defined critical nightlength <strong>of</strong> 8h. As an early flowering species, it is a suitable model plant for studying<strong>on</strong>togenesis in vitro. Culture <strong>of</strong> intact plants in vitro <strong>and</strong> antioxidative enzymesdetecti<strong>on</strong> were used. We showed sequential expressi<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> antioxidative enzymesduring seed germinati<strong>on</strong>. Prior to radicle protrusi<strong>on</strong>, catalase (CAT) <strong>and</strong> superoxidedismutase (SOD) showed maximal activity.
