Effects of various culture media and growth regulators on micropropagation of cherry rootstock, M × M60 were investigated in the present study. Stem cuttings of the current season growth were taken from mature stockplants and cultured on the establishment medium after disinfection. After four weeks, elongated shoots were cut and subcultured on the proliferation media including MS, DKW, QL and M...

Comparative results obtained in isolating salmonellae from faeces by the use of tetrathionate broth, MS, and MM enrichment medium are given. The best results were obtained by tetrathionate broth prepared from infusion broth. The MS as well as the MM medium increased the total number of positive results.

Highly efficient in vitro regeneration system has been developed for Swertia lawii Burkill, an important herb used as substitute for Swertia chirayita. Shoot tips explants were cultured on MS medium with various phytohormones for multiple shoot production. The best shoot production frequency (100%) and maximum shoots (10.4 ± 0.8) were obtained on MS media containing TDZ (3.0 mg l-1) in combinat...

A rapid and efficient in vitro propagation protocol of Acorus calamus L. an important endangered medicinal plant has been developed. Naturally grown rhizome segments were used as explants for initial culture. Surface sterilized rhizome segments were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with various concentrations (0.5 mg l 3.0 mg l ) of cytokinins (BAP, Kn) and auxins (IAA, ...

Leaf and hypocotyl explants of 15 days old aseptically grown seedlings of Solanum laciniatum were cultured on MS medium supplemented with NAA (2 mg/l) and kinetin (0.5 mg/l) for callus initiation. For maintenance and proliferation of callus MS medium supplemented with 2,4-D (1 mg/l) and kinetin (0.5 mg/l) was used. The growth of the calli derived from hypocotyls increased with time of incubatio...

embryo culture were used to produce inter specific walnut hybrid plants between juglans nigra l. and j. regia l. developed ovaries were collected from j. rejia female flowers which were pollinated with j. nigra pollen grain by high dusting on a mature tree. in order to isolate embryos, exocarps were aseptically removed. isolated embryos from ovules at different developmental stages were transfe...

abstract this experiment was conducted for optimizing a suitable medium for callus induction, regeneration and rooting of anthurium. leaf and petiol explants of antadra and casino varieties were used for callus production. ms medium was supplied with growth regulators (naa, ba, kin and iba). a complete randomized design with 3 replication was used in this expriment. result indicates that variet...

objective: n present study effect of various factors including sucrose, agar, peg, agno3, activated charcoal on somatic embryo induction and its subsequent regeneration was investigated using varieties dom siah and nemat. methods: 330 explant (mature embryos) of each varieties were cultured, 33/plate (100 x 15 mm), on callus induction murashige and skoog (ms) medium (murashige and skoog 1962) s...

shoot tips from actively growing, greenhouse maintained plants of kalanchoe blossfeldiana were cultured in vitro for shoot proliferation and root initiation on murashige and skoog (ms) basal medium supplemented with naa and ba, both in concentrations of 0.00, 0.50, 1.00 and 2.00 mg l-1. results showed that the maximum plantlets height (7.012 cm), node number (4.516), root number (8.860) and roo...
