Plant tissue or cell culture keeps a significant role in micro-propagation in the plant production industry. Combination of 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP) and other plant growth regulators like 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) or Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) or indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) was used in the most of the research in tissue culture. The study was carried out to investigate the optimization of...

as regards the kind of use and production of biomass, lettuce plant has a potential to be used as a bioreactor for producing recombinant proteins as well as edible vaccines. for this propose optimized tissue culture as well as gene transformation of lactuca sativa are needed. seeds of 5 cultivars namely tn-96-35, tn-96-36, tn-96-39, tn-96-41, tn-96-53, and tn-96- 54 were disinfected by being so...

The present study is the first report on quantitative analysis of secondary metabolites in callus cultures Barleria prionitis L. and comparison with mother plant. Callus was obtained from stem internode (on MS medium 0.5 mg l−1 NAA, BAP 300 ascorbic acid), leaf 1.0 2,4-D, BAP, acid ) explants and, multiplied by subculturing thrice at an interval 25 days. Calli plant counterparts were extracted ...

Abstract Bioprospecting of anti-SARS-corona virus phytochemical agents is an important issue today as alternative to chemical drugs whose effectiveness has not been fully successful with no light effect. Quercetin, a component Toona sinensis young leaves extract, was reported have anti-viral activity against SARS-corona replication in vitro . Currently, the low efficiency secondary metabolite p...

Echium amoenum Fisch. and C.A. Mey. (Boraginaceae) is a very popular medicinal plant which is used as a tonic, tranquillizer, diaphoretic, cough remedy, sore throat and pneumonia in Iran’s traditional medicine. Callus culture of medicinal plants is one of the ways for production of secondary metabolites. In this study, callus culture of E. amoenum and its major secondary metabolite were investi...

BACKGROUND Taxol is an effective antineoplastic agent, originally extracted from the bark of Taxus brevifolia with a low yield. Many attempts have been made to produce Taxol by chemical synthesis, semi-synthesis and plant tissue cultures. However, to date, the availability of this compound is not sufficient to satisfy the commercial requirements. The aim of the present work was to produce suspe...
