to protect and multiply important and rare plant resources, in vitro culture serves as a more efficient alternative to traditional propagation approaches. levisticum officinale koch. a member of apiaceae is an important, endangered and neglected species in iran, which has been shown to have diuretic, spasmolytic and carminative effects. in order to supply enough plant materials for micro-propag...

Background: Rosa centifoliais commercially propagated by asexual means but in vitro propagation ensure the production of disease free and healthy plants and browning of explants creates hurdle in their multiplication. Objectives: The aim was to reduce oxidative browning of shoots of R. centifolia in MS medium during in vitro propagation. Materials and Methods: Axillary buds of R. centifolia we...

Background: Lemon verbena (Lippia citriodora H.B.K.) is an aromatic and medicinal plant of family Verbenaceae, which cultivated in North region of Iran. Objective: Evaluation of phytochemical characters in Lippia citriodora H.B.K. plantlets affected by propagation methods (micro-propagation and stem cutting) cultivated in different soil type (peat moss and mixture soil). Methods: This study w...

PHL-C is one of the dwarf sweet cherry rootstocks which is a hybrid between P. avium L. × P. cerasus L. Direct rooting of sweet cherry rootstocks is difficult which can be solved by using in vitro propagation. Transfer of plantlets from in vitro to ex vitro limit the use of micro propagation, because of weak root systems and low survival rates. This study was conducted in order to select the be...

a study was conducted to investigate the effect of follicular size (small,

in vitro methods provide a variety of tools to supplement traditional methods for collection, propagation and preservation of endangered plant species. in this study, an efficient protocol was developed for in vitro propagation of colutea gifana, a rare and endangered plant species with limited reproductive capacity that grows in a narrow area of iran. single node explants were used for a serie...

In vitro propagation of rose (Rosa indica) as well as rose breeding is a valuable economic enterprise and has received highest importance globally including Indian subcontinent. The development of new cultivars for commerce is faced with new challenges. In vitro micropropagation protocols of varieties of roses have been established but very few reports on the clonal propagation of local cultiva...

tissue culture methods provide tools to supplement traditional methods for collection, propagation and preservation of endangered plant species. in this study, in vitro propagation of diaphanoptera khorasanica rech.f., a rare and threatened plant species with limited distribution range and population was investigated. this species has a potential as an ornamental plant. single node explants wer...
