fig trees are threatened by the attack of fig mosaic disease (fmd) on leaves and fruits caused by viruses of several genera. shoot-tip culture is a convenient method for viral sanitation. for this purpose, a reliable protocol for rapid in vitro propagation was developed with shoot-tips of three major tunisian local fig (ficus carica l.) varieties zidi (zdi), soltani (sni), bither abiadh (ba) an...

plant tissue culture refers to growing and multiplication of cells, tissues and organs of plants on defined solid or liquid media under aseptic and controlled environment. micropropagation allows rapid production of high quality, disease-free and uniform planting material. the micropropagation of high quality planting materials of ornamentals, and forest and fruit trees has created new opportun...

A micropropagation protocol was developed which may assist in the safeguarding and augmentation of dwindling natural populations of Clinopodium odorum (Griseb.) Harley, a critically and endangered medicinal plant. Factors affecting culture initiation bud sprouting and growth, rooting, and acclimatization were studied, using nodal segments of in vitro germinated seedling as primary explants on s...

In vitro rooting and the acclimatization of micropropagated rootstocks of apple trees is essential for plant development in the field. The aim of this work was to assess the use of rhizobia of Adesmia latifolia to promote rooting and acclimatization in micropropagated Marubakaido apple rootstock. An experiment involving in vitro rooting and acclimatization was performed with four strains of rhi...

Passiflora xishuangbannaensis (Passifloraceae) is endemic to a few sites of Mengyang nature reserve in Yunnan, Xishuangbanna and less than 40 individuals have been recorded. Nine species are Yunnan with most occurring South America, making P. highly significant emblematic the conservation work region. This study designed provide first protocol for vitro organogenesis plant regeneration ex situ ...
