The effects of plant growth regulators were examined in order to optimize the callus induction, regeneration, and proliferation of lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum). In vitro leaves provided the explants for callus induction. Explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with different concentrations of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), and 2,4-dichlorophen...

A rapid and efficient protocol was developed for inducing direct organogenesis using shoot tip explants of Vernonia cinerea L. Shoot tip explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of BAP (2.22 to 22.20 μM/l) and KN (2.42 to 23.20 μM/l) for direct shoot induction. The frequency of multiple shoot induction and proliferation increased with increasing concentrati...

In vitro propagation of rose has played a very important role in rapid multiplication of species with desirable traits and production of healthy and disease-free plants. Micropropagation using nodal segments of Rosa canina under different combinations of BAP, GA3 and NAA on MS and VS, medium was investigated. The results showed that the highest shoot proliferation was obtained on VS medium cont...

background: stevia rebaudiana bertoni, an important anti-diabetic medicinal plant, becomes an inevitable alternative to sugar. due to the propagation difficulties, tissue culture is the best alternative for rapid mass propagation of stevia plants. objective: the present study was conducted to optimize a protocol for rapid micropropagation of stevia rebaudiana by shoot tip explants and to invest...

micropropagation is a proper approach to rapid and large-scale propagation of rootstocks and rose cultivars for huge demand of flower market. proliferation rate of shoot is decreased drastically following several subcultures. growth regulators have remarkable effects on the key phase of proliferation in micropropagation of this popular crop. in this research the effects of bap and antiauxin of ...

Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of indica rice has been established in only a limited number of cultivars because the regeneration of plants from transformed embryogenic calli is highly cultivar-specific. Establishment of a highly efficient plant regeneration system from shoot apex explants applicable to many cultivars of indica rice will accelerate the application of transformation techn...

the influence of explant nodal positions on the in vitro shoot growth and proliferation were studied in the two rose cvs. ‘bianca’ and ‘el torro’. third, fourth and fifth nodal explants were cultured on the modified ms medium supplemented with 1.0 and 5.0 mg/l ba. in both the cultivars, higher rate of proliferation (‘bianca’ 3.75; ‘el torro’ 2.65) were obtained from the explants distal to the a...

Shoot-tip cultures of Pyrus elaeagrifolia Pallas, an important gene source for drought and chlorosis resistance in pear rootstock breeding, were established from a wild mature tree originated from seed. Murashige and Skoog basal medium supplemented with different concentrations of benzyladenine (BA) singly or in combination with auxin was used in the study. In the initial culture, the highest p...
