The use of interesting characteristics from wild Helianthus species in sunflower breeding is limited by poor crossability or sterility of interspecific hybrids. To overcome this barrier, mesophyll protoplasts of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum-resistant clones of Helianthus maximiliani, H. giganteus and H. nuttallii were fused with hypocotyl protoplasts of H. annuus in the presence of polyethyleneglycol and dimethylsulfoxide. Fusion products were embedded in agarose and subjected to a regeneration protocol developed for sunflower protoplasts. Organogenic calli were transferred onto solid medium and emerging shoots were elongated in the absence of plant growth regulators. Rooting of shoots was induced by a 1-naphthaleneacetic acid treatment and putative hybrid plants from fusions between H. annuus + H. maximiliani and H. annuus + H. giganteus were transferred into the greenhouse. All of them exhibited a hybrid phenotype with a high percentage of rhizome producing plants. Their hybrid origin was confirmed by random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis. Plants flowered after 3–4 months and set seeds, of which 70–80% germinated. |
