Abstract Ninebark is a very popular ornamental shrub. Micropropagation an efficient method for mass production of uniform plant material. This study was designed to develop and optimize conditions at all phases ninebark micropropagation. For the multiplication stage, Murashige Skoog (MS) medium full concentration pH 5.8 chosen as basal medium. Sorbitol proved more effective carbohydrate source ...

We characterized the adventitious rooting response of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. to various concentrations of calcium, nitrogen, phosphorus, iron, manganese, zinc, boron and copper. The parameters analyzed were percent rooting, root number, root length and mean rooting time. Root number and root length were significantly affected by mineral nutrition, whereas mean rooting time and rooting perc...

WHO recommends artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) as the most effective choice to treat malaria. For developing transgenic plants with high accumulation of artemisinin (by introducing genes encoding enzymes which regulate the biosynthetic pathway of artemisinin), an efficient protocol for tissue culture and plant regeneration is necessary. In the present study, leaf explants of ...

An efficient clonal propagation procedure for six rice varieties cultivated in Argentina was developed by using shoot tip cultures, and the genetic stability of the micropropagated plants was verified by isozyme analysis. One week old seedlings obtained on MS medium were sectioned and subcultured on MS medium (0.75% agar) supplemented with different combination and concentrations of cytokinins ...

Matthiola incana (Brassicaceae) is an important ornamental plant, which is used as cut flower, pot plant, and landscape. Traditionally, it is propagated via seeds, but interest is given in vegetative propagation of parental lines as well as superior single plants. Micropropagation by organogenesis is an efficient in vitro propagation method for Matthiola incana. Starting from seeds, apical bud ...

establishment of an efficient and reproducible regeneration protocol is one of the basic prerequisites for genetic transformation of any crop plant. in vitro culture of lentil has proven to be difficult. in spite of a number of reports on the regeneration of this plant, very few satisfying and reproducible protocol has yet been reported. this study carried out for investigation of different hor...

fars province is one of the natural habitats of pyrus species in iran. harvesting of fruits, deforestation, expansion of agriculture and overgrazing in recent years has threatened the wild pear open forests and imposed detrimental effects on their natural regeneration, therefore, investigation on propagation of wild pear species for afforestation is needed. this research was carried out to deve...

Morphogenic potential of cabbage cv. Pride of India, for multiple shoot induction was tested under in vitro conditions using cotyledon and hypocotyl explants. Aseptically grown seven to nine days old seedlings of cabbage were used as source of explants for reproducible plant regeneration studies. Forty different concentrations and combinations of TDZ (alone), TDZ with adenine, TDZ with NAA and ...

Submitted: Apr 29, 2013; Accepted: May 30, 2013; Published: Jun 20, 2013 Abstract: This study was aimed to investigate the effects of growth regulators, including new one AN-16 (N-(3-phenylprop-2-yn-1-yl)-N-sodium butyldithiocarbamate, Patent 65377, Kazakhstan), on in vitro culture of some Vitis vinifera L. cultivars of Kazakhstan, European and Central Asia selections. Dormant buds of two culti...
