Adventitious Regeneration Studies in Hibiscus Species

Study of Direct Adventitious Shoot Regeneration in Pomegranate ( Punicagranatum cv. MalasSaveh ) through Cotyledonary Explants

Punicagranatum cv. Malassaveh is one of the most desirable commercial cultivars in Iran. In thisstudy some experiments were conducted to introduce the best hormonal treatments for directadventitious shoot regeneration from mentioned cultivar via cotyledonary explants. For thispurpose, both liquid and agarMurashige and Skoog (1962) (MS) medium supplemented with BAat 2, 4.5, 9, 13 μM alone and in...

Direct Regeneration of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) from Adventitious Buds

The seeds of ten different genotypes of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) originated from Egypt, ICARDA and Saudi Arabia, were used to screen their tissue culture response on various media combination. MS media supplemented with 1, 2 and 4 mg of each of IBA and transzeatin /l, were tested. The results showed that stem results were far better from leaves explants. The callus induction ranged from 6....

Cytomorphological Studies in Dugesia Species of Iran

Adventitious root formation in tree species: involvement of transcription factors.

Adventitious rooting is an essential step in the vegetative propagation of economically important horticultural and woody species. Populus has emerged as an experimental model for studying processes that are important in tree growth and development. It is highly useful for molecular genetic analysis of adventitious roots in trees. In this short review, we will highlight the recent progress made...

Interspecific hybridization among cultivars of hardy Hibiscus species section Muenchhusia.

Rose mallows belong to the Muenchhusia section of the Hibiscus genus. They represent a small group of cold tolerant North American plants and are popular ornamentals mainly because of their abundant, large and colorful flowers. Due to their geographical origin they are well suited for garden use in temperate regions worldwide. The aim of the study was to investigate hybridization barriers in cr...
