An efficient protocol for in vitro flowering of Spilanthes acmella Murr., a medicinally valuable plant, has been developed. Multiple shoot formation of up to 4 shoots was obtained on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with BAP (1.0 mg/l). Regenerated shoots were subcultured cultured on MS medium containing various concentrations of BAP alone or in combination with IAA. Presence of BAP...

to explore the potential for in vitro rapid regeneration of fagonia indica burm., cotyledon explants were obtained from 10-day old aseptically germinated seedlings that cultured on ms medium which supplemented with 1.0-5.0 µm 2,4-d. callus was initiated from cotyledon explant on ms medium supplemented in all concentrations of 2,4-d investigated. 2,4-d was more effective than iaa and naa for cal...

The objective of this research was in-vitro germination and callus induction of Onosma bulbotrichum (O. bulbotrichum) as a medicinal herb which belongs to Boraginaceae family. For germination, the seedswere cultured on growth regulator-free MS medium and for callus induction, seeds were sown on modified MS medium containing different concentrations of kinetin (kn)- Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) an...

1. Asparagus racemosus is an herb used as a rasayana in Ayurveda. The root of A racemosus is popular for its various medicinal uses such as appetizer, stomachic, tonic aphrodisiac galactogogus etc. In this experiment we have found the shoot induction after 3 weeks when Nodal explants segments were cultured in basal medium supplemented with BAP, Kin and Ads and Shoots induction on MS basal mediu...

Shoot tips of two fig cultivars (Conadria and Black Mission) proliferated in vitro, were cultured on modified MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). The present investigation aimed to investigate the effect of different medium salt strengths (Double, full, half and quarter) and different sources of carbon (sucrose and fructose) at different concentrations (0.1 and 0.2 m...
