Clonal Micropropagation of Cymbidium erythrostylum Rolfe

De novo transcriptome sequencing and comparative analysis to discover genes related to floral development in Cymbidium faberi Rolfe

Cymbidium faberi is a traditional orchid flower in China that is highly appreciated for its fragrant aroma from its zygomorphic flowers. One bottleneck of the commercial production of C. faberi is the long vegetative growth phase of the orchid and the difficulty of the regulation of its flowering time. Moreover, its flower size, shape and color are often targeting traits for orchid breeders. Un...

Tissue culture studies on clonal variations in micropropagation of Dalbergia sissoo

The present study was undertaken to study the in vitro responses of different clones of Dalbergia sissoo. For this study, three clones: one from Uttarakhand (clone No.09), Rajasthan (clone No.59) and Haryana (clone No.79) were investigated. These clones were selected on the phenotypic characters of candidate plus trees namely: higher volume of wood, clean bole length and stem form, etc. These c...

Micropropagation of Anthurium spp

Automatic Micropropagation of Plants

Micropropagation is a sophisticated technique for the rapid multiplication of plants. It has a great commercial potential due to the speed of propagation, the high plant quality, and the ability to produce disease-free plants. However, micropropagation is usually done by hand which makes the process cost-intensive and tedious for the workers especially because it requires a sterile work-place. ...
