TL;DR: Because of the isozyme variations, which developed in culture medium and were transferred to the regenerated plants, the IDH, ACP, PER, and EST enzyme systems can be considered to be good markers for investigating possible genetic variations in plant populations of C. peruvianus obtained in vitro from callus culture.
Abstract: Electrophoretic patterns for isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH; EC 1.1.1.42), acid phosphatase (ACP; EC 3.1.3.2), peroxidase (PER; EC 1.11.1.7), and esterase (EST; EC 3.1.1.1) isozymes were determined inCereus peruvianus tissues and used as markers of genetic uniformity of calli and of the plants regenerated from callus cultures. One IDH, six ACP, six PER, and six EST isozymes were induced in cultured callus tissues in medium containing three 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and kinetin combinations. Four ACP, two PER, and three EST isozymes were still present in all regenerated plantsin vitro and therefore can be used as markers of theC. peruvianus plants regenerated from callus tissues. The differential patterns of ACP and IDH isozymes and the similar zymograms for PER and EST isozymes presented by callus tissues were used in a comparison of callus tissues cultured for 2 years. The comparative analysis of zymograms within each enzyme system indicated a mean heterogeneity coefficient of 0.33 forC. peruvianus calli cultured for 2 years. Because of the isozyme variations, which developed in culture medium and were transferred to the regenerated plants, the IDH, ACP, PER, and EST enzyme systems can be considered to be good markers for investigating possible genetic variations in plant populations ofC. peruvianus obtainedin vitro from callus culture.

TL;DR: A high correlation between the ADH isozyme patterns and the capacity for regeneration is indicated and ADH isozymes are indicated as good biochemical markers and as a powerful tool for monitoring studies ofC.
Abstract: Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH; EC 1.1.1.1) isozymes were investigated in tissue ofCereus peruvianus cultured in different concentrations of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and kinetin. Five ADH isozymes were detected in starch gel and showed different patterns in seeds, seedlings, calli cultured at 32 and 22°C, and plants regenerated from calli cultured in three 2,4-D and kinetin combinations. Four phenotypes formed by different combinations of ADH-2, ADH-3, ADH-4, and ADH-5 were detected in calli cultured at 32°C and in plants regenerated from calli. ADH-1 isozyme was detected only in calli subcultured for 1 or 2 weeks at 22°C and was indicated as a marker of stress conditions that affect the growth ofC. peruvianus callus tissues in culture. ADH phenotypes with either a higher or a lower number of isozymes were detected in different proportions in the callus tissues cultured in media containing different 2,4-D and kinetin ratios. ADH isozyme patterns were found to be sensitive markers at the highest kinetin concentration or at high kinetin/2,4-D ratios. The results indicate a high correlation between the ADH isozyme patterns and the capacity for regeneration. Thus, ADH isozymes are indicated as good biochemical markers and as a powerful tool for monitoring studies ofC. peruvianus callus cultures.
