Background & Aim: Clematis is an ornamental and medicinal plant that is primarily planted as an ornamental plant. Clematis orientalis is native to Asia and Central Europe, used as an antiseptic and refrigerant. The propagation of Clematis is very important. In this study, the effects of plant growth regulators on rooting and growth of the plants in vitro cult...

A novel protocol for production of multiple shoot tip clumps of Keelar nelli (Phyllanthus amarus Schum. & Thom.) were developed in vitro from shoot tip explants cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing only BAP or BAP with NAA, 3% sucrose and 0.8% agar. The addition of the following combination of growth substances 0.1mgLBAP and 0.05mgLNAA, caused an extensive proliferation of mul...

BACKGROUND: In order to investigate the induction of salinity tolerance in CP72-1312 commercial cultivar in tissue culture condition, an experiment was carried out in the tissue culture laboratory of Karoun Agro-Industry Company in 2017 year. OBJECTIVES: At this study we evaluated tolerance of CP73-1312 sugarcane commercial cultivar to salt stress in tiss...

A suitable protocol for micropropagation of Casuarina hybrid, Casuarina equisetifolia L. 9 Casuarina glauca Sieber ex Spreng (C. e. 9 C. g.), was developed. When seeds without seed coats were cultured on 4 germination media, the optimal seed germination percentage (91%) was obtained on 0.8% agar solidified water medium. Shoot multiplication was achieved by culturing 2-cm long epicotyls, excised...

In vitro regeneration of plants from root cultures of Swertia chirata Buch.-Ham. ex Wall was obtained. Root explants from axenic shoot cultures were used for shoot induction. Optimal shoot regeneration without any callus intervention was observed on 1/2 MS (Murashige and Skoog’s medium, 1962) + 4.44 μM 6, benzylaminopurine (BAP) +1.07 μM α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA).Regenerated shoots were f...

An efficient in vitro plant regeneration protocol was developed for Chrysanthemum morifolium, an ornamental plant. Nodal segments were used as explants in the present experiment. The explants were cultured onto Murashige & Skoog’s (MS) nutrient medium containing plant growth regulators (cytokinins or auxins) with various combinations and concentrations for the study. Maximum percentage (93.33%)...

A regeneration protocol ensuring a high frequency rooting of micro-shoots derived from apical and axillary buds of suckers of banana cv. Sagar was achieved by using liquid medium. When the explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l each of BA, Kn and NAA, a large number of shoots developed. With the progression of the number of subcultures, shoot proliferation was enhanced. ...

Pigeonpea is an important grain legume, however the genetic transformation of pigeonpea has been very challenging to date. In the present study, we describe a simple protocol for plantlet regeneration via multiple shoot induction from 12-16 day old immature embryos of pigeonpea cultivar ICPL 87 which can be used for efficient transformation. By optimizing the culture medium, we have achieved or...

Rosa persica with a distinctive red eye is a good candidate for addition to the breeding pool of roses. In order to optimize micropropagation of R. persica, three culture media (MS, QL and VS) were compared. The maximum growth rate was observed in the VS medium. Addition of FeEDTA (Fe: 65.4 mg/l), calcium gluconate (Cg: 2.7 g/l) and Gamborg vitamins (B5) instead of VS vitamins, alone or in comb...
