In vitro daylily (Hemerocallis species) bract multiple shoot induction

In vitro antioxidant capacity of daylily ( Hemerocallis disticha ) flowers cultivated in Taiwan

Daylilies (Hemerocallis disticha) are very popular for vegetarian cuisine in Taiwan and have been long used as a nutritious food and/or traditional medicine in Chinese society. Therefore, the antioxidant capacity of daylily flowers was investigated with a number of established in vitro assays. The results showed that DPPH radical scavenging activity, hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity, super...

Effect of Kinetin on Multiple Shoot Induction in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cv. NIAB-999

A new day dawning: Hemerocallis (daylily) as a future model organism

Genetic model organisms have revolutionized science, and today, with the rapid advances in technology, there is significant potential to launch many more plant species towards model status. However, these new model organisms will have to be carefully selected. Here, we argue that Hemerocallis (daylily) satisfies multiple criteria for selection and deserves serious consideration as a subject of ...

In Vitro Multiple Shoot Induction from Nodal Explants of Citrus Cultivars

Citrus cultivars were explored for multiple shoot induction and root regeneration in different media. The multiple root and shoot induction was found directly proportionate to the increase in the levels of benzyleaminopurine (BA) and naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) in the modified Murashige and Skoog medium. The study might be promising towards in vitro propagation of sanitated Citrus plant mater...

In vitro multiple shoot induction through axillary bud of Asclepias curassavica L. – A valuable medicinal plant

Micropropagation of Asclepias curassavica L. a medicinal plant valued for its medicinal properties has been carried out using two different plant culture media, Murashige and Skoog (MS) and L2. L2 medium proved to be superior to MS medium in terms of shoot multiplication and shoot length. Nodal explants showed enhanced organogenic response than shoot tip explants. Basal nodal explants produced ...
