the present study was carried out to investigate micropropagation possibility and determine the optimal medium composition and plant growth regulators (pgrs) combinations under in vitro conditions. the cotyledon and epicotyl explants obtained from 1 month old in vitro grown seedlings were used in ms medium containing ba (0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 mg-1) and tdz (0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 mg-1) e...

background & aim: dracocephalum genus belongs to the lamiaceae family which has eight species in iran. dracocephalum kotschyi boiss is an important medicinal and aromatic plant that use in pharmaceutical industry. in addition, this species is used in iranian traditional medicine. the aim of current study was to examine the various growth regulations and explants on direct organogenesis of d...

the present work developed an efficient plant regeneration and propagation system via direct organogenesis for morinda officinalis how., a valuable endangered medicinal plant. the effects of explant types on shoot induction, plant growth regulators on shoot proliferationand elongation and the subsequent rooting ability of shoots were examined. among the various types of explant, direct shoot pr...

individual grain weight of wheat kernels differs with their positions on a spike. cultivation practices (such as fertilizer nitrogen and plant growth regulators application) can be used to improve weight of basal and distal kernels. for this purpose, two experiments based on randomized complete block design were carried out with three replications. the aim of this research was to study the mech...

Pistachio is one of the economically important horticultural crops in Iran. The main pistachio-producing areas in Iran are located at the edge of the desert and are affected by soil and water salinity. Water and nutrient uptake by the root decreases under saline conditions. In this study, the effects of foliar growth regulators applied at different times on the nutrient uptake and leaf nutrient...

in vitro propagation of rose has played a very important role in rapid multiplication of species with desirable traits and production of healthy and disease-free plants. micropropagation using nodal segments of rosa canina under different combinations of bap, ga3 and naa on ms and vs, medium was investigated. the results showed that the highest shoot proliferation was obtained on vs medium cont...

the aim of this study was the better assessment of the relationship of pulsing treatment of gibberellic acid as an anti-senescence agent and holding in sucrose as a carbohydrate supply resource on improving some qualitative and physiological attributes of cut rose flower cv. velvet. hence, an experiment involving the pulsing treatment with gibberllic acid (ga3) at 0, 20, 40 and 60 mg l-1, for 2...

the aim of this review was to represent a category of applied plant biostimulants and to highlight the effect of their application on morphological and phytochemical properties of medicinal plants in in vivo and in vitro conditions and their mechanism of action. plant biostimulants, safe for both human beings and the environment, are substances or materials, except for nutrients and pesticides,...

abstract the goal of this experiment was to save apricot flowers from late spring frost damage. this experiment was conducted during 2007-2008 to examine the effect of application of different concentrations of gibberellic acid in two forms pure (ga3) and impure (berelex) at (0, 50, 100, 200, 300 mgl-1) at 23 august and 23 september to delay flowering in apricot asgarabad cultivar. a factorial ...
