Method for cloning and culturing seaweed gametophytes

The invention discloses a method for cloning and culturing seaweed gametophytes, which comprises the following steps of: cutting seed seaweed pieces with mature sporangia; using sterilized absorbent cotton to dip the boiled seawater for cleaning the seed seaweed pieces; respectively soaking the pretreated seed seaweed pieces with sterilized double-resistant seawater for 30 minutes, sterilized seawater solution with the potassium iodide concentration being 1.5% for 10 minutes, and sterilized seawater for 20 minutes; carrying out free spore diffusion and filtration in a serum bottle; and pouring the filtered spore water into a vertical staining jar which is provided with a glass slide, after the free spores are attached to the glass slide to form embryo spores, pouring the spore water out, filling sterilized double-resistant seawater, using a micropipette to separate single male and female gametophytes to the serum bottle, then using sterilized double-resistant seawater to culture, and thus obtaining the unicellular seaweed gametophyte clone group. The seaweed gametophyte which is cultured by the method has stable clone characteristics and high survival rate, can be effectively prevented from being contaminated, and is suitable for long-term storage.
