Fruit Breeding
• Breeding objectives for rootstock:
– Resistant to biotic and abiotic stress
– Dwarf growth stature – without affecting productivity of scion.
– Wide geographical adaptability
– Easily propagated through asexual means
• Breeding objectives for scion cultivars:
– High productivity
– Resistant to biotic and abiotic stress
– Dwarf growth stature
– Regular, precocious and prolific bearer per unit canopy area
– Longer shelf life and transport quality
– Good quality fruits:
 Appearance –> Size, shape, color
 Eating quality –> Seedlessness (few or soft seeds), flesh color, texture, flavor
M K Saini
Fruit Breeding Constraints
• Long juvenile phase
• Heterozygous nature
• Wide/distant hybridization – Interspecific & Intergeneric crosses.
• Sexual incompatibilities in both self and cross combination
• Susceptibility to biotic & abiotic stress
• Polyploidy – Banana, Strawberry
• Polyembryony – Citrus, Mango
• Parthenocarpy and seedlessness – Banana, Pineapple
• Loss of natural germplasm
• Lack of knowledge on inheritance pattern
• Excessive fruit drop – Mango, Citrus
• Presence of single seed in single fruit – Mango, Litchi
• Seed dormancy
• Low seed viability

1. Embryo Rescue
M K Saini
1. Embryo Rescue
• Post - zygotic embryo abortion – Major breeding constraint.
• Embryo rescue refers to in vitro technology whose purpose is to promote
the development of an immature or weak embryo into a viable plant.
• Embryo rescue procedures – Ovule culture, Ovary culture, Embryo culture.
• It has been successfully applied in grapes, citrus, mango, stone fruits.
• Grapes variety developed by IARI, New Delhi using embryo rescue :-
• Pusa Purple Seedless: Cross between ‘Pearl of Casaba’ and ‘Beauty
Seedless’, raised through embryo rescue.
• It is an extra-early berry ripening variety (in the 3rd week of May) under
sub-tropical region.

2. In Vitro Production
of Haploids
M K Saini
2. In Vitro Production of Haploids
• Haploid plants are obtained from pollen grains by culturing them.
• Two methods - Anther culture & pollen culture.
• Double haploid - Homozygous pure plant.
• Applications of haploid plants:
– Production of genetically pureline by selfing is impractical because of their
long generation cycle & frequent self incompatibility.
– To solve of problem of high heterozygosity – No segregation in meiosis.
– Shorten the time for generation of homozygous lines.
– QTL mapping.
– Genome sequencing.
– DH: To study heterozygous maternal parent.

• Musa balbisiana cv. Bimkol => BB genomic group (2n= 2x= 22).
• Long crop cycle (740 days) => Breeding problem.
• 30 days old immature male flowers => Explants.
• 58.33 % haploid plants
• 41.66 % diploid plants

3. Somatic Hybridization
M K Saini
3. Somatic Hybridization
• Somatic hybridization is an alternative to sexual reproduction in order to
combine the genomes from otherwise incompatible parents.
• It involves fusing protoplasts of two different genomes followed by the
selection of desired somatic hybrid cells and subsequent regeneration of
hybrid plant.
• It involves four steps:
 Protoplast isolation
 Protoplast fusion
 Selection of hybrid cells
 Regeneration of hybrid plants
• Two types of hybrids - symmetric hybrid and asymmetric hybrids
M K Saini
Applications of somatic hybridization
• Production of interspecific and intergeneric hybrids – by combining
nuclear and cytoplasmic genomes belonging to different species & genus.
• Production of fertile diploids and polypoids – by crossing sexually sterile
haploids, triploids and aneuploids
• Production of heterozygous lines in the asexually propagated species
• Transfer of cytoplasmic information (mtDNA) for the production of male
sterile plants and seedless triploids.
• To create novel germplasm as a source of elite breeding parents.
• To create novel hybrids with increased yield and resistance to biotic and
abiotic stress.

4.Somaclonal variations & In vitro mutagenesis
• Somaclonal variation is defined as genetic variation observed among
progeny of plants regenerated from somatic cells cultured in vitro.
• Somaclonal variants in vitro selected with or without induced
mutagenesis to obtain tolerant plants to a variety of stresses.
Grosser and Gmitter (2011) USA
M K Saini
Production of sweet orange somaclones tolerant to
citrus canker disease by in vitro mutagenesis with EMS
• Mutation was introduced by treating the cell suspension of embryogenic
callus with 1.5 % of EMS for 1 hour.
• The survival plants were tested by in vitro and in vivo inoculation with Xcc.
• One somaclone (DG-2) was identified to be resistant to the canker disease.

In vitro mutagenesis for improvement of Banana
• In vitro mutagenesis was applied to banana cv. “Giant Cavendish” to develop
dwarf, early maturing mutants with increased fruit yield.
• Multiple shoots of banana were gamma ray irradiated (10 Gy).

5. Cryopreservation & in
vitro germplasm storage
M K Saini
5. Cryopreservation & in vitro germplasm storage
• Genetic resources are not only pre-requsite but key ingredient for genetic
improvement.
• Loss of genetic variability –> Genetic erosion.
• Field gene bank –> Damage by pests, pathogens & climatic disorders.
• In vitro germplasm conservation is the only solution.
• Cryopreservation –
– Storage at ultra cool temperature (-196 ᵒC).
– Plants cells, Shoot tips, Somatic & Zygotic embryos.
– 4 Steps –> Freezing, Storage, Thawing & Reculturing.
• In vitro germplasm storage
– INIBAP –> Banana
– NBPGR –> Pomegranate, Banana, Phalsa, Bael & Jackfruit.
M K Saini
Conclusion
• Biotechnology has brought great challenges, opportunities
and prospects for conventional breeding.
• However, biotechnology as transgenic breeding or genetic
manipulation cannot replace conventional breeding but is and
only is a supplementary addition to conventional breeding.
• Therefore, integration of biotechnology into conventional
breeding programs will be an optimistic strategy for fruit crop
improvement in the future.

Editor's Notes

  1. Young fruit stored at 4℃ for 35 days remained the best choice. Cold treatment affected the germination process in cherry by breaking the dormancy and accelerating the germination onset. This could be related to the poor development of embryos, which differentiate
  2. “Symmetric hybrid” is a combination of diploid nuclear genomes and two maternal cytoplasmic genomes. “Asymmetric hybrids” arises due to a combination of genomes of the parents or combination of the genome of one parent and the cytoplasm of another; these are also known as cybrids.
  3. Protoplast fusion was adopted to transfer CMS from Satsuma mandarin cv. Guoqing No. 1 (G1) to three seedy sweet oranges i.e. ‘Early gold’, ‘Taoye’ and ‘Hongjiang’.
  4. Tropical fruit crops such as banana are propagated vegetatively and creating genetic variability is highly limited due to heterozygosity, polyploidy and complex genome. Mutation induction is an important tool to create variability for fruit yield and quality traits.
