说明书全文

The invention relates to a clone of the vegetable species CRAMBE which is not currently cultivated, obtained by neoformation in vitro on a callus of a petiole or lamina fragment removed from a plant of long-standing cultivation, and a method of vegetative propagation by micropropagation in vitro of the clone and the Crambe species.

The clone of Crambe obtained constitutes a new vegetable for the farmer and the consumer. Vegetative propagation, which makes use of in vitro techniques, makes it possible to produce, on a large scale and very homogeneously, cuttings to be placed in the field, and to provide for rapid launching of this new production.

DESCRIPTION

The invention relates to a clone of sea kale originating from a plant maintained in a conservatory since the 19th century, a fragment of which was subjected to organogenesis by culturing it in vitro, and also to a process for vegetative propagation thereof in vitro, leading to the production of cuttings which can be used by farmers.

The sea kale (Crambe maritima L.), which was probably cultivated to a small extent in France during the 19th century, has nowadays completely disappeared from the array of cultivated vegetables marketed in France, and in Europe. The description of this vegetable, as well as the main phytotechnical aspects of cultivating it, are described in several encyclopedic works on agronomy dating from the end of the 19th century (Vilmorin-Andrieux 1883, Nicholson 1895). In this plant species, which is found on sea coasts and is perennial by means of its rhizome, the young shoots in the etiolated state, on the resumption of growth in spring, form the edible organ. The use of root cuttings in the field is the method of propagation of the species and hence the traditional process for establishing a crop for this species.

On leaving the Ecole Nationale Superieure d'Horticulture of Versailles, where he held a post until August 1971, the present inventor took a sample of a rhizome fragment from a sea kale plant present in the departmental collection of edible plants at this establishment since the last century. The maintenance of this plant by successive fragmentation of the rhizome throughout generations without there being any modification of the plant from the standpoint of genotype--the description of the plant conforming with the description given by the above-mentioned authors--enables the inventor to assert that the plant referred to above was cultivated during the last century in the state in which it existed at the time the inventor removed the sample. Hence it cannot be of the same type as the wild crambe which we encounter in resorts on the coast of Brittany or Normandy. Since that date, the plant has been maintained in the botanical conservatory of the Department of Vegetable Crops of the Ecole Nationale d'Ingenieurs des Travaux Agricoles, Horticulture Section, of Angers, where the inventor is currently working.

From this parent plant, the inventor has created a clone according to the following process:

A fragment of an organ, which can be a petiole or lamina, is disinfected in a 10% strength NaOCl solution under vacuum for 10 minutes, rinsed in three washes of sterile water and cultured in test tubes in an air-conditioned room under the following conditions:

Temperature: day=24° C., night=18° C.

Light: 10,000 lux for 16 hours/24 hours.

The culture medium used has the following composition (amounts expressed per liter of culture medium):

______________________________________NH4 NO3 0.48      gCa(NO3)2.4H2 O             0.71      gKNO3         0.15      gKCl               0.075     gMgSO4.7H2 O             0.493     g(NH4)2 SO4             0.265     gKH2 PO4 0.140     gK2 HPO4 0.175     gFe EDTA(*)        5 ml of stock solutionH3 BO3  2.48      mgMnSO4        3.38      mgZnSO4        1.15      mgKI                0.30      mgNa2 MoO4             0.10      mgCuSO4        0.05CoSO4        0.05      mgNiSO4        0.05      mgAlCl3        0.05      mgGlutamine         200       mgAdenine           40        mgSucrose           30        gAgar C            8         g______________________________________ (*)The stock solution of Fe EDTA (iron  ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) is prepared in the following manner: 557 mg of FeSO4.7H2 O are mixed with 750 mg of Na2 EDTA, and the volume of the mixture is adjusted to 100 ml with distilled water. The pH of the above culture medium is adjusted to 5.6 with 1/10 HCl solution.

From these explants, calluses develop if an auxin, which can be indolacetic acid (0.2 to 0.7 mg/l, preferably 0.5 mg/l), and a mixture of cytokinins are added to the above medium in a suitable concentration ratio, for example, an auxin/cytokinin concentration ratio, expressed in mg/liter, of 0.066, the mixture of cytokinins also being in a suitable ratio, this mixture of cytokinins possibly consisting of, for example, kinetin (6 to 8 mg/l) and 6-benzylaminopurine (1 to 2 mg/l, preferably 1.5 mg/l), these two cytokinins also being in a suitable ratio, for example, in a concentration ratio (mg/l) of 4.

Under these conditions, organogenesis takes place in 20-28 days: there is neoformation of several buds on the calluses, and the buds then develop leaves. Each bud is then separated and then pricked out onto a so-called propagation medium according to the process explained below, which is also included in the present invention. The totality of the plants thus obtained, which have undergone subsequent pricking out onto a suitable rooting medium--which process also forms part of the invention--is homogeneous and formed of plants which are all identical to each other: this hence constitutes a clone of seal kale obtained according to the process explained above.

The characteristics of the plants of the clone thus obtained are collated below:

From the morphological standpoint, the plants of the clone possess leaves with a flattened lamina, the marginal notches of which, known as teeth and few in number, have a constant which is characteristic of all the plants in the clone and which can be designated by an index I defined as follows: ##EQU1## I.s=length, expressed in cm, of the internerve space in question, enclosing a sinus (position of this space identical for all plants studied).

N=number of teeth present in the internerve space (I.s) in question.

L=total length of the lamina of the leaf, expressed in cm.

This index settles at an average value of 0.068.

The morphological homogeneity of the plants which form the clone created by the process described above is verified in terms of the index I by statistical analysis (determination of the standard deviation), as seen from the results which appear in Table I below:

              TABLE I______________________________________Plants   L (cm)  I.s (cm)     N      I______________________________________1        24.9    5.1           6     0.0472        31.6    9.1          20     0.0693        37.5    12.5         40     0.0854        31.9    8.9          24     0.0845        39.5    7.4          20     0.0686        34.4    5.5          12     0.0637        37.5    9.7          19     0.0528        23.0    5.5          10     0.0799        18.5    3.2           4     0.067      Average         0.068      Standard deviation                      0.014______________________________________

Furthermore, the leaves (lamina+petiole) of the plants of the clone reach, when fully developed, an average length of 48 cm and are green due to the absence of anthocyanine pigments. Finally, for a suitable cultivation site, at whatever date they are planted, the plants originating from culture in vitro, according to the process which also forms part of the present invention, do not exhibit the floral state during the year when these plants were set up in the field after the micro-propagation phase in vitro. When they resume growth in situ or in an air-conditioned chamber, the plants of the clone, after the first year of growth, develop, in darkness, shoots--the edible organ of the plant--which are of culinary value.

The invention also relates to a process for propagating the clone of sea kale which leads to the production of cuttings which can be used directly by farmers. The process can also be used on the sea kale species.

The buds originating from organogenesis in vitro, following the method according to the present invention described above, are separated from the callus under sterile conditions and then pricked out in a glass bowl containing 130 ml of a medium identical to the neoformation medium specified above except in respect of the nature of the growth substances and their balance: the mixture contains exclusively a cytokinin (e.g., 6-benzylaminopurine in a concentration of 6 to 8 mg/l, preferably 7 mg/l) or a mixture of cytokinins in a suitable ratio, for example, in a concentration ratio, expressed in mg/liter, of 1.66, this mixture of cytokinins possibly being kinetin (4 to 6 mg/l, preferably 5 mg/l) and 6-benzylaminopurine (2 to 4 mg/l, preferably 3 mg/l). The climatic conditions relating to the neoformation process are maintained in the present process. When all the conditions are observed, the buds induce lateral buds, the average number of which is 5, and which develop in 3 weeks, at the end of which a further pricking out will be necessary, with separation of the neoformed buds. This propagation process in vitro, which is also a subject of the present invention, enables 18,125 cuttings to be obtained after 18 weeks, starting from one neoformed bud.

When the requisite number of cutting-plants to be cultivated in the field is potentially reached, the buds are pricked out in vitro, in test tubes or in a glass bowl, on a so-called rooting medium the composition of which is identical to that of the neoformation or propagation medium with the exception of the growth substances which, in the present case, are represented exclusively by one or more auxins (e.g., naphthalene acetic acid in a concentration of, for example, 0.1 mg/l). The climatic conditions, which remain identical to the previous conditions, enable 3 to 4 white roots to be developed after 2 to 3 weeks.

The young plants thus obtained, equipped with 2 to 4 cm roots, are transferred to pots containing a non-sterilized, moistened substrate, this substrate possibly being composed of, for example, one-half yellow peat and one-half sand, and moistened to 80% of its water retention capacity. The pots are placed in mini-greenhouses equipped with an adjustable cover, under the following climatic conditions:

Day temperature: 20° C.

Night temperature: 15° C.

Natural illumination of the place where the intensity was maintained at less than 15,000 lux.

Maintained thus under these conditions, the plants develop both as regards their foliage (lamina approximately 10 cm for the oldest leaves) and as regards their root system (emission of three or four long, slightly tuberous roots, on which a fine and abundant lateral root-hair growth appears). After a 4 to 6 week breeding period, the plants can be transferred to the production field to set up production crops of the sea kale vegetable.

With the sea kale, the main advantages of vegetative micropropagation in vitro, compared to traditional propagation by root cuttings, are as follows:

complete homogeneity of the cuttings to be placed in the field, leading to very great homogeneity of the field crop,

the propagation of an individual belonging to the clone can be carried out continuously, independently of the season and the climatic conditions, the micropropagation in vitro of sea kale makes it possible to increase dramatically the potential for production of cuttings starting from one individual,

finally, it makes it possible to ensure for rapid launching of this new production by farmers.
