This investigation was carried out at the Tissue Culture Lab., Biotechnology Research Center (BTRC) in Tripoli, Libya 2009 to establish a micro propagation protocol for two hybrids of Tomato which several factors were studied including effect concentration growth regulator on shoot multiplication, and rooting explant MS media. Shoot tips cultured into (MS medium) with different concentrations b...

The electrochemical behavior of 6-benzyl adenine (6-BA) has been studied in 0.1 mol L(-1) HAc-NaAc solution (pH 3.8). Cyclic voltammetry, single-sweep polarography and direct current polarography were employed to clarify the mechanism of the electrode process; the kinetic parameters of the rate-determining step were determined. Reduction of 6-BA involves two pH-dependent processes, correspondin...

Carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) is an underutilized traditional crop in the Mediterranean regions that has gained much interest due to its high nutritional traits and resilience drought salinity. However, conventional methods of carob propagation are not enough meet increasing market demands. The present study analyzes what extent benzyl adenine (BA) treatments (0.1, 0.5 1.0 mg L−1) alone or combi...

This study was conducted during the growing season of 2021 and 2022 in horticulture station located at Akre city center Duhok Iraqi Kurdistan region, aimed to investigate effect growth regulators on seedling apricot determined best concentration Gibberellin, Benzyl adenine Kinetin improve vegetative . so it consisted three GA3 (0, 250 500 mg.L-1), BA (0,150 300 KIN mg.L-1) some characteristics ...

the present investigation was conducted to study the effects of type and concentration of auxin and cytokinin on callus induction of three strawberry (kurdistan, parose and camarosa) cultivars. for this purpose, leaf blade, nodal, petiole, receptacle, stamen and flower bud explants were cultured on murashige and skoog (ms) medium at three separate experiments included 2, 4 dichlorophenoxyacetic...

We obtained seven kinds of cDNA clones putatively identified as encoding class III chitinases from cDNA libraries constructed from dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D)- and benzyl adenine (BA)- treated rice callus. Putative amino acid sequences encoded in these cDNA clones were compared with those of known chitinases of other plants. Two clones coded for homologues that show high similarity to cl...

the present study reports an efficient protocol for isolation and regeneration of protoplasts from callus of fritillaria imperialis l. there is no published method recommended for protoplast isolation and regeneration from fritillaria imperialis l. a range of factors, which influence the success of isolation and regeneration of f. imperialis protoplasts, were investigated. from the results obta...

This communication explores the effect of varying substituent bulk at the N9 position of the adenine moiety and its effect in dictating the structural aspects of silver-adenine frameworks. While adenine alone or 9-benzyl substituted ligand afforded mono and dinuclear dimeric entities, n-propyl substitution at the N9 position results in the formation of a metallaquartet. Longer n-alkyl chains (h...

The phytohormone cytokinin (CK) is known to delay senescence in plants. We studied the effect of a CK analog, 6-benzyl adenine (BA), on rice leaves to understand the possible mechanism by which CK delays senescence in a drought- and heat-tolerant rice cultivar Nagina22 (N22) using dark-induced senescence (DIS) as a surrogate for natural senescence of leaves. Leaves of N22-H-dgl162, a stay-green...
