Abstract

Hypocotyls of Albizia odoratissima cultured on shoot induction medium (MS medium with 7.5 μM BAP and 0.5 μM NAA) showed adventitious shoot organogenesis under light with 16 h photoperiod. Similar cultures under total darkness produced non-morphogenic calli. The changes in the specific peroxidase and catalase activity, total protein content and acidic isoperoxidase pattern were compared between the culture showing shoot organogenesis and culture producing non-morphogenic calli. It was found that in vitro shoot bud differentiation is accompanied by an increase of the specific activities of peroxidase and catalase in culture kept under light. In parallel with the above changes the total protein content reached to the maximum level and also a new isoperoxidase (P10) expressed on the 21st day in cultures kept under light. Conversely, culture producing non-morphogenic calli underwent a reverse change in specific peroxidase activity. This change in antioxidant enzyme activities corresponds to the histological observation of shoot bud differentiation in cultures kept under light.
