Abstract

A novel biological model was created for the comparison of grapevine embryogenic cells (EC) and nonembryogenic cells (NEC) sharing a common genetic background but distinct phenotypes, when cultured on their respective most appropriate media. Cytological characterization, 1H-NMR analysis of intracellular metabolites, and glycolytic enzyme activities provided evidence for the marked metabolic differences between EC and NEC. The EC were characterized by a moderate and organized cell proliferation, coupled with a low flux through glycolysis, high capacity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and glucokinase, and high oxygen consumption. The NEC displayed strong anarchic growth, and their high rate of glycolysis due to the low energetic efficiency of the fermentative metabolism is confirmed by increased enolase capacity and low oxygen consumption.
