Popis: In this work, we investigated the effect of different osmoprotective treatments and of cryopreservation using a droplet-vitrification (D-V) protocol to eliminate sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) of shoot-tips excised from in vitro propagated infected plantlets. Shoot-tips of sugarcane (Saccharum spp. L.) were precultured on semisolid MS medium supplemented with 0.3 M sucrose for 1 day, loaded in solution with 0.4 M sucrose and 2 M glycerol for 30 min and exposed to plant vitrification solution 2 for 15 min at room temperature prior to ultra-rapid cooling in liquid nitrogen. Virus indexing was performed by the DAS-ELISA immunoenzymatic test. The presence of SCMV was confirmed in the donor-plantlets derived of infected field material. No virus was detected in the regenerated plantlets from shoot-tips subjected to cryopreservation protocol. The progressive decrease in absorbances occurred from the first preculture treatment and no significant differences (P ≤ 0.05) were found with respect to following steps of D-V protocol. These results indicate that the osmotic dehydration treatments (osmotherapy) and cryopreservation (cryotherapy) may be potentially effective strategies to remove the SCMV from infected plants.
