Efficient protocol for mass micropropagation of Artemisia annua L.

An Efficient Micropropagation Protocol of an Elite Clone Ec- 353508 of Artemisia Annua L., an Important Antimalarial Plant

An efficient in vitro propagation system for an elite clone EC-353508 of Artemisia annua L., an important antimalarial drug plant has been developed. The best organogenic response, including adventitious multiple shoots and their elongation, was obtained when nodal explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 10μM 2-isopentenyl adenine (2iP). An average of 17.7±0.88 shoots with an aver...

Artemisia annua L

Shoot cultures of Artemisia annua L. were cultivated in three different micropropagation systems: an ultrasonic nutrient mist bioreactor (UNMB), a modified ultrasonic nutrient mist bioreactor (MUNMB) and solid culture in Magenta boxes. The shoots cultivated in the UNMB and MUNMB showed excellent growth. The dry weight increase (35 times) of shoot cultures in the MUNMB was higher than those (25 ...

Annual Wormwood ( Artemisia annua L

Uses Traditional and Artisanal Used traditionally in China to treat fevers and hemorrhoids. Used in the crafting of aromatic wreaths, as a flavoring for spirits such as vermouth, and as a source of essential oils for the perfume industry.

Efficient Protocol for Regeneration of Transformed Artemisia Annua Plants from Hairy Roots

Elite genotypes from high yielding variety of Artemisia annua L. (Jeevanraksha, CIMAP Lucknow) were regenerated form nodal explants and maintained in MS culture medium with BAP and NAA. The leaves of tissue culture grown plants were inoculated with Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain LBA9402 containing the selective marker gene NPT II. Hairy roots emerged from the leaves, 8-10 days after inoculatio...
