Establishment of an efficient and reproducible regeneration protocol is one of the basic prerequisites for genetic transformation of any crop plant. In vitro culture of lentil has proven to be difficult. In spite of a number of reports on the regeneration of this plant, very few satisfying and reproducible protocol has yet been reported. This study carried out for investigation of diff...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of certain nutrient medium types enhanced with plant-growth regulators on direct inductionof somatic embryogenesis in vegetative strains produced and propagated from a tissue culture Digitalis purpurea. The results showthat MS was superior other tested media-B5, LS, 5C01—in terms days required initiate somaticembryogenesis induction rate. In contrast,...

Tissue culture is an attractive alternative for plant propagation. Micropropagation is a technique to ensure a constant and uniform source of ornamental plants. Matthiola incana is an important ornamental species mainly cultivate by seed. Matthiola incana seeds were germinated on solid MS medium without plant growth regulators. Shoot proliferation and root formation are possible using kinetin (...

this study was conducted with the main prupose of investigation the effects of culture medium and the concentration of growth regulators on proliferation rate, rooting and the acclimatization of gisela 6 rootstock at khorasan razavi agriculture and natural resource research center during 2011-2012. in this experiment, the proliferation and rooting were performed in six kinds of culture medium (...

Various plant organ segments including segments from roots (root tip, and root collar), stems, leaves, and also seeds of several Hyoscyamus species (i.e. H. pusillus, H. arachnoideus, annual and biennial H. niger from two distinct geographical regions) were cultured on MS media with various growth regulator combinations, to assess the ability of flower production. Statistical assessments showed...

Nitrogen plays a pivotal role in growth and differentiation of cells of Phyllanthus amarus Schum. and Thonn. Both form and amount of nitrogen in nutrient medium have significant effects on the rate of cell growth and differentiation. In this study, effects of different inorganic nutrients (KNO3 and NH4NO3) and organic nutrients (glycine) on regeneration of P. amarus were evaluated. Murashige an...

The natural tragacanth gum, the sap of Astragalus gummifer, has been successfully used as a gelling agent in tissue culture media for in vitro shoot development and proliferation of miniature rose and carnation. Shoot development of nodal segments excised from greenhouse grown plants, was investigated on MS medium solidified with either 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0% tragacanth or 0.8% agar as control....

plant tissue culture technique could provide sterile and controllable condition in order to assay direct effect of different compounds on plant growth accurately. in this study, the effects of aqueous extracts prepared from roots and shoots of goosefoot (chenopodium album l.), redroot pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus l.), fennel (foeniculum vulgare), and wormwood (artemisia absinthium l.) were e...
