In order to optimize the micropropagation of Qare-Qat (Vaccinium arctostaphylus J.J.Sm), samples were collected from two regions of Iran (Asalem and Kelardasht). Anderson (AN) media containing different concentrations of zeatin (0, 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 mg L-1) and different levels of pH (4.5, 5 and 5.5) were compared. The in vitro shoots were transferred on AN media supplemented with zeatin (1 and 2...

Several new superior apricot × plum (Prunus armenica × P. domestica) inter specific hybrid rootstocks have been recently produced in Iran, but the propagation of these hybrids by conventional means has been shown to be very difficult. In vitro propagation could be a reliable method for mass clonal propagation of these new rootstocks. In this study, in vitro establishment, proliferation and root...

Leaf explants of kaladium dwubarwne Caladium bicolor (Aiton) Vent., were cultured in vitro on MS media supplemented with 25 different concentrations of BAP and NAA in order to determine the appropriate concentrations for micropropagation. All combinations induced callus formation on explants. Callus production on leaves explants grown on control medium was very low. The medium enriched with 4 m...

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...

Matthiola incana (Brassicaceae) is an important ornamental plant, which is used as cut flower, pot plant, and landscape. Traditionally, it is propagated via seeds, but interest is given in vegetative propagation of parental lines as well as superior single plants. Micropropagation by organogenesis is an efficient in vitro propagation method for Matthiola incana. Starting from seeds, apical bud ...
