In order to study the germination and growth of pepper seeds, a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with three replications was conducted. The first factor was consisting of five cultivars of pepper (Marquiza, Cadia, California Wonder, California Wonder 310 and California Wonder 300) and the second factor was gibberellic acid with three levels (0 as control, 250 and 500...

The present investigation was carried out at Horticultural Research Institute, Ayub Agricultural Faisalabad during 2017-2019 to evaluate the effect of different growth regulators on root induction Date palm suckers. There were six treatments i.e., T0 (Control), T1 (Indol butyric Acid (IBA) @2000 ppm), T2 (IBA@4000 T3 (Naphthalene Acetic (NAA) T4 (NAA@3000), T5 (IBA@2000 ppm + NAA@2000 ppm). Gro...

A protocol for regeneration of an endangered medicinal orchid Dendrobium crepidatum was established mainly via indirect protocorm like body (PLBs) formation. The PLBs procured from in vitro growth cultures assessed ½ MS medium alone and combinations with 6-Benzyl amino purine (BAP), Kinetin (Kn) α-Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). calli were induced longitudinally bisected segments PLBs. optimum p...

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is a crop of increasing importance as source seed oil and proteins; nonetheless, the number studies on sunflower tissue culture somewhat limited. The development competent in vitro direct organogenesis protocol involves important basic steps regeneration. In our study, chemically sterilized seeds were planted induction media, 52.54 % germination efficiency was foun...

Abstract Ninebark ( Physocarpus opulifolius ) is an attractive ornamental shrub with poor rooting characteristics in some cultivars, which a limiting factor commercial production This study was designed to optimize conditions of ninebark cuttings and observe the effect exogenous auxin IBA on morpho-anatomical biochemical changes associated rhizogenesis vitro conditions. Both auxins under study:...

The presence of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) as an endogenous auxin in Arabidopsis has been recently demonstrated. However, the in vivo role of IBA remains to be elucidated. We present the characterization of a semi-dominant mutant that is affected in its response to IBA, but shows a wild-type response to indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), the predominant and most studied form of auxin. We have named t...
