This experiment was performed to evaluate the effects of different types and concentrations of carbohydrate source on callus fresh weight, number of somatic embryos per embryonic explant and percentage of globular embryos developing into cotyledonary embryos from the leaf explants of three strawberry cultivars (Kurdistan, Paros and Camarosa). MS medium containing 1.0 mg/l 2,4-dichlorophenoxyace...

The soil-borne pathogenic fungus Verticillium dahliae Kleb. causes economic losses in crops in temperate regions of the world and hence is the most studied species. Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) belongs to plant species susceptible to Verticillium dahliae, although the response to infection caused by this pathogen is varied and depends on the cultivar. Due to a lack of efficient method...

The objective of this review paper is to summarize on the history, advantages, disadvantages in vitro micropropagation strawberry crop. Since traditional method propagation, that is, use runners as propagating material, not efficient because it leads spread viral diseases. We have go for micropropagation, crops also yield more when compared methods propagation. reviews a study done develop prot...
