Cryopreservation has been proven to be an effective technology for the cost-effective, longterm preservation of genetic material. A wide range of plant material including cultured cells, tissues, embryos, meristems, pollen and seeds can be effectively preserved for extended periods of time and, when thawed, can be used to rapidly produce stock plants, with good preservation of genetic and physi...

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) is the highest oil-yielding commercially grown perennial tree. germplasm conservation and in vitro clonal propagation strengthened world’s efforts to ensure future food security. Cryopreservation provides long-term storage for germplasm. The of plant material at cryogenic temperatures (−196 °C) following dehydration causes cryoinjury. cryotolerance mechanism has rar...

La crioconservación de semillas representa una alternativa para la conservación a largo plazo germoplasma forestal, sobre todo especies tropicales intermedias o recalcitrantes, cuya viabilidad decae rápidamente bajo condiciones estándares almacenamiento. Por ello, se evaluó en cedro rojo el impacto del congelamiento rápido nitrógeno líquido (N2L) germinación sensu stricto y desarrollo temprano ...

This study aimed to develop a cryopreservation protocol for the long-term preservation of yacon [Smallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp. and Endl.)], an Andean crop with high fructooligosaccharide content in its tuberous roots. Initially, was developed using clone originated from Ecuador classified as ECU 41. Osmotic dehydration apical buds (2–3 mm long) carried out by assessing two plant vitrificatio...

Abstract Background In the absence of a method to culture Plasmodium vivax , only way source parasites is ex vivo. This hampers many aspects P. research. study aimed assess safety apheresis, for selective removal specific components blood as means extracting and concentrating parasites. Methods An iterative approach was employed across four non-immune healthy human subjects in single subject co...

More than 50% out of 129 Agave species are endemic to Mexico. Among them, peacockii is among the list threatened that require special protection. In this work, we aimed at developing new supplementary strategies achieve micropropagation and perform cryopreservation in vitro grown shoot-tips A. peacockii. For multiplication, addition two cytokinins, 6-benzylaminopurine (26.6 μM) kinetin (27.84 M...
