Modeling Callus Induction and Regeneration in Hypocotyl Explant of Fodder Pea (<i>Pisum sativum</i> var. <i>arvense</i> L.) Using Machine Learning Algorithm Method

Abstract

A comprehensive understanding of genetic diversity and the categorization of germplasm is important to effectively identify appropriate parental candidates for the goal of breeding. It is necessary to have a technique of tissue culture that is both effective and reproducible to perform genetic engineering on fodder pea genotypes (Pisum sativum var. arvense L.). In this investigation, the genetic diversity of forty-two fodder pea genotypes was assessed based on their ability of callus induction (CI), the percentage of embryogenic callus by explant number (ECNEP), the percentage of responding embryogenic calluses by explant number (RECNEP), the number of somatic embryogenesis (NSE), the number of responding somatic embryogenesis (RSE), the regeneration efficiency (RE), and the number of regenerated plantlets (NRP). The findings of the ANOVA showed that there were significant differences (p R2 = 0.941) performs better than the RF model (R2 = 0.754) and the MARS model (R2 = 0.214). Despite this, it has been shown that the RF model is capable of accurately predicting RE in the early stages of the in vitro process. The current work is an inquiry regarding the use of RF, MARS, and ANN models in plant tissue culture, and it indicates the possibilities of application in a variety of economically important fodder peas.
