I. OSMOTIC AND WATER
POTENTIALS
II. THE OSMOTIC POTENTIAL OF
TISSUE CULTURE MEDIA
III.EFFECTS AND USES OF
OSMOLYTES IN TISSUE CULTURE

S= S macronutrients + S sugars
Sugars are responsible for much
of the osmotic potential of
normal plant culture media
THE CONTRIBUTION OF
NUTRIENTS SALTS
0.1M KCL dissolved in water =>
0.1 mole K+ and 0.1 mole Cl 0.2 theoretical osmolality
Several different compounds are
dissolved together =>
Dissociation may not be
complete
The macronutrients contribute
most to the final osmotic

Osmolytes
are compounds
affectingosmosis.
play a role in maintaining
cell volume andfluid
balance.
2. Osmotic effects on
growth:
Solutions of different concentrations
exert their effect on growth by their
nutritional value, and through their
varying osmotic potential.
Decreasing the osmotic potential
(usually by adding mannitol) +
lowering of the temperature =>
reduce
the
growth
rate
for
preservation of valuable genotypes
3. Osmotic effects on
morphogenesis

Apogamous buds on

Somatic embryogenesis
High sucrose levels in media
for the culture of zygotic
embryos if they are isolated
when immature.
Embryos which are more fully
developed when excised,
grow satisfactorily in a
medium with 10-30 g/l sugar.
[ PHYTOHORMONE]
Auxin : very important influence on
the growth and morphogenesis.
ABA + an osmoticum prevents
precocious germination in white
spruce and allows embryo
development.
Storage organ formation might be
mediated by ABA since osmotic
stress induces ABA => bulb and

Callus cultured in the presence of
sodium sulphate retained its shootproducing capacity over a long
period.
Media of small osmotic potential:
employed for the induction and
growth of roots on micropropagated
shoots
