1 Physical & Chemical Means of Controlling Contamination in Plant Tissue Culture Dr. Gary Seckinger Dr. Kenneth C. Torres PhytoTechnology Laboratories
2 Like death and taxes, contamination or the threat of contamination is always with us and we need all the weapons to combat them. L.L. Coriell National Cancer Institute Monog. 7:33, 1962
3 Physical Means of Controlling Contamination Eliminate vector transmission of contaminants: Seal Culture Vessels Parafilm, Nescofilm PVC Film (Austratec) Seal Cultures in Plastic Bags: e.g., Zip-lock Bags, Star*Pac Bags
4 Chemical Control of Contamination 24 May WORLD CONGRESS on In Vitro Biology The Use of Antimicrobials in Plant Tissue Culture
5 Antibiotics (Antimicrobials) Bacteristatic Inhibit bacterial growth; bacteria viable but dormant. Growth resumes in antibiotic-free medium. Bactericidal Lethal to bacteria; no subsequent growth in antibiotic-free medium Antifungal (Antimycotics) Fungistatic & Fungicidal Broad-spectrum Antimicrobials Inhibit or eliminate bacteria and fungi. Antiviral Inactivate virus
6 Ideally, Antibiotics in Plant Tissue Culture are: Soluble Stable Unaffected by media ph or components Inexpensive Minimal side effects (no phytotoxicity) Systemic in plant tissues Broad spectrum of activity Low chance of bacterial resistance Lethal to microbe Usable in combinations Gilbert, et al., Ann Appl Biol 119:113, 1991 Falkiner, Acta Hort 225:53, 1988 & Int Assoc Plant Tiss Cult 60:137, 1990
7 Theory vs. Reality Theoretically All (microbial) contaminants can be eliminated from plant tissue cultures by one or more antibiotics. In reality This is seldom possible. No substitute for careful, aseptic work. Last resort when conventional techniques fail.
8 So Many Antibiotics Available Which to Use? Ideally: Isolate contaminant Streak it on bacterial medium plate Apply antibiotic discs Determine which antibiotic(s) are most effective Alternate approach: Streak contaminant through selective media Determine partial characterization or identity Hit the library Which antibiotics are effective? Any phytotoxicity reported?
9 Antibiotic Effectiveness More Reality Antibiotic effectiveness can be affected by: ph of medium e.g., some are more effective at alkaline ph s Ion concentration of medium high cation concentration can reduce effectiveness of some antibiotics Many antibiotics have short solution stability: e.g., the Penicillin group hr at room temp. Phytotoxicity varies: Between plant species Between genotypes within a species Between plant parts organs vs. intact plant
10 How Much Do I Use? MIC vs. MBC MIC Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Inoculate bacteria on medium w/ increasing concentrations of antibiotic(s) Lowest concentration of antibiotic to prevent bacterial growth = MIC MBC Minimum Bactericidal Concentration Subculture from medium at & above MIC conc. Lowest antibiotic conc. in MIC test at which no bacteria grow on bacterial medium w/out antibiotic = MBC Target: Phytotoxic Concentration MBC = 2
11 If One is Good Are 2+ Better? Most antibiotics have narrow spectrum of activity e.g., Gram +, Gram -, or Antimycotic Plant cultures may contain more than one type of contaminant may contain numerous types Therefore, Antibiotic combinations may be necessary Worse yet Some microbial species difficult to eliminate w/ one antibiotic, e.g., Hypomicrobium contamination Neither 500 µg/ml Streptomycin or Carbenicillin effective. Combined 100 µg/ml of both was effective. Horsch & King, Plant Cell Tiss Oran Cult 2:21-28, 1983
12 Antibiotic Effects on Growth & Development Negative: Detrimental to plastids & mitochondria Impair chlorophyll formation Inhibit amino acid incorporation Inadvertent development of resistant cell lines by mutation or selection. Antibiotic combinations may have synergistic phytotoxicity (i.e., 2 antibiotics show little/no toxicity when used individually; significant toxicity when combined).
13 Effect on Multiplication Grading antibiotics based on their inhibitory effect on plant growth (reduced multiplication rate in vitro): Most Inhibitory Streptomycin Polymyxin-B Rifampicin Carbenicillin Least Inhibitory Leifert, et al. Plant Cell Tiss Org Cult 29:153, 1992
14 Antibiotic Effects on Growth & Development Positive: Promote growth of cell cultures Enhance morphogenesis while inhibiting callus growth Stimulate root development in cuttings.
15 Do I Have to Add Antibiotics to the Medium? Not necessarily Stock Plant Treatment Reduced phytotoxicity Hevea shoots-tips inhibited growth w/ antibiotics in medium. No inhibition if stock plant sprayed every 2 days for 2 weeks before culture. Contamination controlled Enjalric, et al., Acta Hort 225: 57, 1988 Other studies have shown reduced bacterial growth in shoot-tips & buds w/ regular antibiotic treatments to stock pants.
16 Alternatives to Antibiotics in Medium (cont.) Explant Treatment Shoot-tips sprayed before excision from stock plant Shoot tips/ buds dipped or soaked after excision e.g., Prunus shoot tips treated 1 min w/ Rifampicin before culture gave better control than Rifampicin in medium. Tuber/ corm treatments Cyclamen tubers soaked 1-4 days before culture produced non-contaminated cultures w/out phytotoxicity. Antibiotics in medium were phytotoxic. Combining stock plant or explant treatments w/ in vitro treatment may be necessary.

54 Antiviral Ribavirin (Virazole ) Solubility: Water Solution Stability: 24 hr at 2-6 C (prepare fresh) Mode of action not fully understood; may be due to competition w/ guanosine in formation of viral mrna cap structure or enzymes involved in production of structural viral proteins. ( Virus elimination in shoot-tips & buds augmented by heat (thermo) therapy or electric shock treatment. Some reports indicate mutation rate may be increased. Concentration range: µg/ml Repeated subculture required: 7-10 for sugarcane; 6.5 months for bamboo Toxicity above 30 µg/ml reported.
55 Concluding Comments Since most microbial contaminants are unknowns, and, Since microorganisms have different sensitivities to antibiotics it is difficult to specifically target microbial contaminants. Unfortunately, it is common practice to use the spray and pray technique for antibiotic application Best to check the literature first. Broad-spectrum biocides frequently have bacteristatic/ fungistatic activity continuous use may be required to control contaminants.
