Plants can regenerate from a variety of tissues on culturing in appropriate media. However, the metabolic shifts involved in callus formation and shoot regeneration are largely unknown. The metabolic profiles of callus generated from tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) cotyledons and that of shoot regenerated from callus were compared with the pct1-2 mutant that exhibits enhanced polar auxin transpor...

Direct regenerations by using mature cotyledonary node as a explants has been shown to be time-saving and convenient strategy for micropropagation of soybean. So we have evaluated regeneration protocol through single shoot using cotyledonary node as a rapid and efficient protocol for two soybean cultivars and one mutant line. Cotyledonary nodes explants obtained from 7-days-old in vitro</em...

Punicagranatum cv. Malassaveh is one of the most desirable commercial cultivars in Iran. In thisstudy some experiments were conducted to introduce the best hormonal treatments for directadventitious shoot regeneration from mentioned cultivar via cotyledonary explants. For thispurpose, both liquid and agarMurashige and Skoog (1962) (MS) medium supplemented with BAat 2, 4.5, 9, 13 μM alone and in...

A protocol was developed for high frequency plant regeneration in H. patulum by shoot-tip culture. H. patulum plants were collected from a wild source growing at high altitude in the eastern Himalayas. Multiple buds were initiated from shoot-tips cultured on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with BAP, kinetin. Addition of thiamin HCI, Ca-pantothenate and biotin enhanced multiple shoot f...

Hypericum perforatum L. (St. Johns’ wort) is the most commercially important species of the genus Hypericum and contains a wide range of components including naphthodianthrones, phloroglucinols, tannins, xanthones, phenolic acids and essential oil. In order to establish an efficient protocol for regeneration, the effects of explant type and plant growth regulators on direct and indirect shoot r...

Different explants of Crocus sativus L. such as corm, style, ovary, petal, anther and leaf were cultured on LS and MS media supplemented with NAA and BAP or 2,4-D plus BAP at different combinations. Shoot and corm induction occurred in addition to the formation of other organs. Efficient plantlet regeneration with strong roots occurred at 1 mg 1-I of both NAA and BAP. An increase in 2,4-D l...

Background Agrobacterium mediated gene transfer technology offers the potential to introduce novel, high-value traits into selected, elite tree genotypes. Significant progress has been made in the regeneration and genetic transformation of Eucalyptus trees, but transformation efficiency has generally been low for eucalypts [1], especially for elite clonal genotypes. As a preliminary step toward...

The frequency of shoot regeneration and multiplication of P. harmala was influenced by the type of explant and kind and concentration of hormones. Of the various seedling explants, cotyledonary node exhibited maximum shoot regeneration frequency from axillary region on MS medium supplemented with 5 microM BAP. Addition of 0.1 microM NAA enhanced the efficacy of BAP for multiple shoot regenerati...
