Plant somatic cells have the remarkable ability to regenerate an entire organism. Many species in the genus Kalanchoë, known as "mother of thousands," develop plantlets on the leaf margins. Using key regulators of organogenesis (STM) and embryogenesis (LEC1 and FUS3) processes, we analyzed asexual reproduction in Kalanchoë leaves. Suppression of STM abolished the ability to make plantlets. Here...

Nitraria schoberi (Ghar-e-Daghin in Persian) from Zygophyllaceae (Nitrariaceae) family is considered as a wonderful exquisite plant in terms of its economical, medicinal, animal feed, significant values and also its unique characteristics of being tolerant to the soil salinity, drought and erosion. On the other hand, this plant is challenging with severe problems such as seed dormancy, plant gr...

abstract to produce embryogenic callus and somatic embryo, whole flower explants were collected at two sampling stages of i, iii. to produce embryogenic callus and somatic embryo, ms medium supplemented with 5 and 10µm 2,4-d and 2µm bap were used. for embryo differentiation, ms medium with 0.5mg/l iba, ms medium without any plant growth regulators, ms medium with 2mg/l iba and 0.2mg/l bap, ms m...

The present investigation was conducted to develop a protocol for rapid plant regeneration in potato. The newly emerge sprout of six potato cultivars were used as explant. Varietal response on in vitro regeneration under different hormonal concentration and combination were studied. MS medium supplemented with 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 4.0 mg L of KIN and IAA in combination of both were employed for ...

Effect of Potassium Sulfate Application on Some Physiological Characteristics Date Palm Plantlet Zahedi Cultivar (Phoenix dactylifera cv. Zahdei) Under Water Stress

The Fritillariaimperialis is grown natively in Iran. Between ornamental bulblet plants, this plant has special place, therefore this plant needs more attention, otherwise this plant will be destroyed in future. For this reason in vitro culture of Fritillariaimperialis was studied. Tissue culture techniques have high potential for mass propagation. The multiplication efficacy of the method by bu...
