This document discusses polyploidy, mutation, and hybridization with reference to medicinal plants. It begins by defining polyploids as organisms with multiple chromosome sets exceeding the diploid number. Polyploids are classified as euploids or aneuploids. Euploids include autopolyploids containing multiple copies of the same genome, and allopolyploids containing genomes from different species. Polyploidy can occur spontaneously or be induced to produce superior plant varieties. The document also discusses mutation, describing types such as point mutations and chromosome mutations. Finally, it defines hybridization as the process of crossing genetically different parents, and describes objectives and types such as inter-varietal and inter

- 3. POLYPLOIDY WITH REFERENCE TO MEDICINAL PLANTS
- 4. WHAT IS POLYPLOIDS ? • Polyploids are organisms with multiple sets of chromosomes in excess of the diploid number . • Polyploidy is common in nature and provides a major mechanism for adaptation and speciation. • Approximately 50-70% of angiosperms, which include many crop plants, have undergone polyploidy during their evolutionary process.
- 5. CLASSIFICATION OF POLYPLOIDS • based on their chromosomal composition euploids aneuploids. • Euploids constitute the majority of polyploids.
- 6. EUPLOI DY • are polyploids with multiples of the complete set of chromosomes specific to a species. • Depending on the composition of the genome, euploids can be further classified into autopolyploi ds allopolyploid
- 7. AUTOPOLYPLOIDY • Containing ofmultiple copies of the basic set (x) of chromosomes of the same genome . •
- 8. • occurs in nature through union of unreduced gametes. • Natural autoploids include tetraploid crops such as alfafa, peanut, potato and coffee and triploid bananas.
- 9. ALLOPOLYPLOIDY • A combination of genomes from different species .
- 10. • They result from hybridization of two or more genomes followed by chromosome doubling or by the fusion of unreduced gametes between species . • This mechanism is called non-disjunction . These meiotic aberrances result in plants with reduced vigor. • Economically important natural alloploid crops include strawberry, wheat, oat, upland cotton, oilseed rape, blueberry and mustard .
- 11. ANEUPLOIDY • are polyploids that contain either an addition or subtraction of one or more specific chromosome(s) to the total number of chromosomes that usually make up the ploidy of a species. •
- 12. • Aneuploids result from the formation of univalents and multivalents during meiosis of euploids . • With no mechanism of dividing univalents equally among daughter cells during anaphase I, some cells inherit more genetic material than others . • Similarly, multivalents such as homologous chromosomes may fail to separate during meiosis leading to unequal migration of chromosomes to opposite poles.
- 16. INDUCING POLYPLOIDS………… • They occur spontaneously through the process of chromosome doubling. • Spontaneous chromosome doubling in ornamentals and forage grasses has led to increased vigour. • Examples tulip forage grasses ryegrasses have yielded superior varieties following spontaneous chromosome doubling .
- 17. • breeders have harnessed the process of chromosome doubling in vitro through induced polyploidy to produce superior crops. • For example, induced autotetraploids in the watermelon crop are used for the production of seedless triploid hybrids fruits. • Such polyploids are induced through the treatment of diploids with mitotic inhibitors such as dinitroaniles and colchicine .
- 18. • It is necessary to eliminate duplicated genes in a newly formed polyploid to avoid gene silencing as well as to stabilize fertility • The increase in nuclear ploidy affects the structural and anatomical characteristics of the plant. • Polyploidy results in increased leaf and flower size , stomatal density, cell size and chloroplast count
- 19. • Hybrid vigor resulting from interspecific crosses in allopolyploids is one of the most exploited advantages of polyploid in plant breeding. A comparison between the leaf and flower of a (A) diploid and (B) induced tetraploid watermelon A B
- 20. MUTATION WITH REFERENCE TO MEDICINAL PLANTS
- 21. INTRODUCT ION • Sudden heritable change in genetic material or character of an organismis known as mutation • Individuals showing these changes are known as mutants • An individual showing an altered phenotype due to mutation are knownas variant • Factor or agents causing mutation are known as mutagens • Mutation which causes changes in base sequence of a gene are knownas gene mutation or point mutation
- 22. HISTO RY • English farmer Seth Wright recorded case of mutation first time in 1791 in male lamb with unusual short legs • The term mutation is coined by Hugo de Vries in 1900 by his observation in Oenothera • Systematic study of mutation was started in 1910 when Morgan genetically analyzed white eye mutant of Drosophila • H. J. Muller induced mutation in Drosophila by using X- rays in 1927 ; he was awarded with Nobel prize in 1946
- 23. CHARACTERISTICS OF MUTATION • Generally mutant alleles are recessive to their wild type or normal alleles • Most mutations have harmful effect, but some mutations are beneficial • Spontaneous mutations occurs at very low rate • Some genes shows high rate of mutation such genes are called as mutable gene • Highly mutable sites within a gene are known as hotspots. • Mutation can occur in any tissue/cell (somatic or germinal) of an organism
- 24. CLASSIFICATION OF MUTATION • Based on the survival of an individual 1. Lethal mutation – when mutation causes death of all individuals undergoing mutation are known as lethal 2. Sub lethal mutation - causes death of 90% individuals 3. Sub vital mutation– such mutation kills less than 90% individuals 4. Vital mutation -when mutation don’t affect the survival of an individual are known as vital 5. Supervital mutation – This kind of mutation enhances the survival of individual
- 25. • Based on causes of mutation 1. Spontaneous mutation- Spontaneous mutation occurs naturally without any cause. The rate of spontaneous mutation is very slow eg- Methylation followed by deamination of cytosine. Rate of spontaneous mutation is higher in eukaryotes than prokaryotes. Eg. UV light of sunlight causing mutation in bacteria 2. Induced Mutation- Mutations produced due to treatment with either a chemical or physical agent are called induced mutation . The agents capable of inducing such mutations are known as mutagen. use of induced mutation for crop improvement program is known as mutation breeding. Eg. X- rays causing mutation in cereals
- 26. • Based on tissue of origin 1. Somatic mutation- A mutation occurring in somatic cell is called somatic mutation. In asexually reproducing species somatic mutations transmits progeny to the next progeny 2. Germinal Mutation- from one When mutation occur in gametic cells or reproductive cells are known as germinal mutation. In sexually reproductive species only germinal mutation are transmitted to the next generation
- 27. • Based on direction of mutation 1.Forward mutation- When mutation occurs from the normal/wild type allele to mutant allele are known as forward mutation 2.Reverse mutation- When mutation occurs in reverse direction that is from mutant allele to the normal/wild type allele are known as reverse mutation
- 28. • Type of trait affected 1. Visible mutation- affects on phenotypic character Those mutation and can be which detected by normal observation are known as visible mutation 2. Biochemical mutation- mutation which affect the production of biochemicals and which does not not show any phenotypic character are known as biochemical mutation
- 29. CHROMOSOME MUTATIONS • May Involve: – Changing the structure loss or gain
- 30. CHROMOSOME MUTATIONS • Five types exist: –Deletion –Inversion –Translocation – Nondisjunction –Duplication
- 31. DELETI ON • Due to breakage • A piece of a chromosome is lost
- 32. INVERSI ON • Chromosome segment breaks off • Segment flips around backwards • Segment reattaches
- 33. DUPLICAT ION • Occurs when a gene sequence is repeated
- 34. TRANSLOCA TION • Involves two chromosomes that aren’t homologous • Part of one chromosome is transferred to another chromosomes
- 35. TRANSLOCA TION
- 36. NONDISJUNC TION • Failure of chromosomesto separate duringmeiosis • Causes gamete to have too many or too few chromosomes • Disorders: – Down Syndrome – – Turner Syndrome – – Klinefelter’s Syndrome –
- 38. TYPES OF GENE MUTATIONS • Include: • –Point Mutations • –Substitutions • –Insertions • –Deletions • –Frameshift
- 39. POINT MUTATION • Change of a single nucleotide • Includes the deletion, insertion, or substitution of ONE nucleotide in a gene
- 40. POINT MUTATION • Sickle Cell disease is the result of one nucleotide substitution • Occurs in the hemoglobin gene
- 41. FRAMESHIFT MUTATION • Inserting or deleting one or more nucleotides • Changes the “reading frame” like changing a sentence • Proteins built incorrectly
- 43. HYBRIDIZATION WITH REFERENCE TO MEDICINAL PLANTS
- 44. MEANING OF HYBRIDIZATION • Individual produced as a result of cross between two genetically different parents is known as hybrid. The natural or artificial process that results in the formation of hybrid is known as hybridization. • The production of a hybrid by crossing two individuals of unlike genetical constitution is known as hybridization. Hybridization is an important method of combining characters of different plants. Hybridization does not change genetic contents of organisms but it produces new combination of genes.
- 46. OBJECTIVES OF HYBRIDIZATION 1. To artificially create a variable population for the selection of types with desired combination of characters. 2.To combine the desired characters into a single individual. 3.To exploit and utilize the hybrid varieties.
- 47. TYPESOFHYBRIDISATION Basing on the taxonomic relationship of two parents, Hybridisation grouped into 2 types HYBRIDISATION INTERVARIETAL HYBRIDISATION DISTANT HYBRIDISATION INTRASPECIF IC INTERSPECI F IC INTRA GENERIC INTER GENERIC
- 48. TYPES OF HYBRIDIZATION: (i) Intra-varietal hybridization: The crosses are made between the plants of the same variety. ii) Inter-varietal or Intraspecific hybridization: The crosses are made between the plants belonging to two different varieties. (iii) Interspecific hybridization or intragenric hybridization: The crosses are made between two different species of the same genus.
- 53. Procedure of Hybridization: It involves the following steps: (i) Selection of parents. (ii) Selfing of parents or artificial self-pollinat (iii) Emasculation. (iv) Bagging (v) Tagging (vi) Crossing (vii) Harvesting and storing the F, seeds (viii) Raising the F1 generation.
