The present study explores the potential of exogenous auxins in the development of adventitious shoots and roots from shoot cuttings of Couroupita guianensis (Nagalingam), a threatened tree. Experiments were conducted to assess the effect of various concentrations of auxins on shoot and root morphological traits of stem cuttings in the greenhouse. Amongst the auxins tested, significant effects ...

As an environmentally-green technology, thermal catalytic oxidation of octachloronaphthalene (CN-75) over anatase TiO2 nanomaterials was investigated at 300 °C. A wide range of oxidation intermediates, which were investigated using various techniques, could be of three types: naphthalene-ring, single-benzene-ring, and completely ring-opened products. Reactive oxygen species on anatase TiO2 surf...

The growth-inhibiting effects of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) at high concentration and the synthetic auxins 7-chloro-3-methyl-8-quinolinecarboxylic acid (quinmerac), 2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoic acid (dicamba), 4-amino-3,6, 6-trichloropicolinic acid (picloram), and naphthalene acetic acid, were investigated in cleavers (Galium aparine). When plants were root treated with 0.5 mM IAA, shoot epina...

Efficient in vitro plantlet regeneration is an important step to successfully transform genes for the improvement of agronomic traits. A combination 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and thidiazuron (TDZ) plant growth regulators was applied evaluate shoot capacity whereas α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) with (BAP), 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic (2, 4-D) were tested optimize root induction two peanut culti...

Muscari armeniacum is one of the important ornamental cut flower in floriculture industry which native to Southern Europe, North Africa, Western Asia and Asia Minor. In this study, bulb explants (basal plate of bulb having meristem), bulb scales and leaf segments from in vitro derived bulblets were culture in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with different plant growth regulato...

An efficient in vitro propagation system for an elite clone EC-353508 of Artemisia annua L., an important antimalarial drug plant has been developed. The best organogenic response, including adventitious multiple shoots and their elongation, was obtained when nodal explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 10μM 2-isopentenyl adenine (2iP). An average of 17.7±0.88 shoots with an aver...

The effect of various concentrations of thidiazuron (TDZ) with or without 2.7 μM of α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) on adventitious shoot formation of two Petunia hybrida cultivars was studied. Seeds from ‘Daddy Blue’ and ‘Dreams White’ cultivars were germinated in vitro. Expanded leaves from both seedlings and regenerated shoots were taken as explants. Explants were placed on MS media supplied...

The present experiment was carried out during Zaid 2021. In order to study the “Effect of Naphthalene Acetic Acid and Indole on Growth, Yield Quality Muskmelon (Cucumis melo. L). trail conducted at Biotechnology polyhouse, Department Horticulture, Naini Agriculture Institute Prayagraj. foliar spray two growth regulators like were separately different concentration (NAA @10ppm, 20ppm, 30 ppm, 40...

Somatic embryogenesis has been accomplished from tender leaf base explant of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.). Three to five mm long tender leaf base explants derived from the meristamatic region of 2-3 year old offshoots of date palm cv. Kheneizi were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with 10, 50, 100 and 150 mg l 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) and incub...

A simple and efficient protocol for in vitro shoot and callus induction was established from three different explants of Canavalia gladiata (Jacq.) DC. an economically important legume. The explants viz., shoot buds, nodes, internodes were cultured in MS medium supplemented with various concentration and combination of (PGRs) Plant growth regulators 6-benzyl amino purine (BAP) (0.5mg/L – 1.5mg/...
