Adventitious Shoot Organogenesis and Plant Regeneration from Internode Explants of Paederia foetida L.:A Valuable Medicinal Plant

In vitro direct plant regeneration from shoot tip explants of Clitoria ternatea - An important medicinal plant

A simple micropropagation method from shoot tip explants was reported here for Clitoria ternatea L., an economically important medicinal plant. High frequency of micro shoots were obtained from this explants on MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of Indole Acetic acid (IAA) (0.5 2.0 mg/l) and KN (0.5 -2.0 mg/l). Maximum number of shoots was obtained from shoot tip explants in the...

Callus induction and plant regeneration of paederia foetida L., a widely used medicinal vine in Bangladesh

An efficient protocol was established for in vitro plant regeneration of Paederia foetada L. (Family. Rubiaceae), a widely used medicinal vine of Bangladesh through callus culture in using nodal segment. Yellowish green nodular callus was observed from nodal segments on MS basal medium supplemented with 1.5 mg/L BAP + 0.5 mg/L NAA within three weeks. Large number of shoots (14.4±1.29) were obta...

Shoot Organogenesis and Plant Regeneration from Leaf Explants of Lysionotus serratus D. Don

The gesneriaceous perennial plant, Lysionotus serratus, has been used in traditional Chinese medicine. It also has a great development potential as an ornamental plant with its attractive foliage and beautiful flowers. An efficient propagation and regeneration system via direct shoot organogenesis from leaf explant was established in this study. High active cytokinin (6-benzyladenine (BA) or th...

High-Frequency in Vitro Direct Shoot Regeneration from Nodal Explants of Hyssop Plant (Hyssopus officinalis L.)

Considering great medicinal value of Hyssopus officinalis L. and possibility of its mass production through in vitro culture, two individual experiments was conducted. Effect of various concentrations (0, 2.2, 4.4 and 11 µmol) of TDZ and BAP in combination with 1 µmol of IAA on direct regeneration from nodal explants were assessed. Significant difference between treatments was observed (P≤ 0.01...
