Morphological variation in Tricyrtis hirta plants regenerated from heavy ion beam-irradiated embryogenic calluses

Detection of somaclonal variation in plants regenerated from different tissues of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) using ISSR marker

Production of genetically and phenotypically stable plantlets is the main purpose in commercial strawberry tissue culture. In this study, different tissues of Fragaria ananassa cv. Camarosa including stipule, apical meristem, leaf and petiole were cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented withdifferent concentrations of N6-benzyladenine (BA) (0.5, 1, ...

Beam Dynamics in Heavy Ion Fusion

for current multiplication, and it is there that the main challenges of beam dynamics are found. It is being studied in Europe, Russia, and Japan, and is discussed in ref. [1]. A standard design for heavy ion fusion drivers under study in the US. is an induction linac with electrostatic focusing at low energy and magnetic focusing at higher energy. The need to focus the intense beam to a fewmil...

Somaclonal variation in Asparagus officinalis plants regenerated by organogenesis from long-term callus cultures*

Somaclonal variation in plants regenerated by organogenesis from long-term cultured calluses of two diploid staminate genotypes of Asparagus officinalis cv. Argenteuil was characterized by plant phenotype, ploidy, meiotic behavior, pollen viability, fruit and seed set, and AFLP profiles. Phenotypic deviations from the donors were detected in foliage color, flower size, and cladode and flower mo...
