Micro Propagation of Several Potted Anthurium Accessions Using Spathe Explants

Somatic embryogenesis in anthurium (Anthurium andraeanum cv. Eidibel) as affected by different explants

This study establishes a protocol for the induction of somatic embryogenesis in Anthurium andraeanum cv. Eidibel. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized 5 x 5 x 5 factorial design using five explant types (whole leaves, half leaves; petiole; nodal segments and root segments) from in vitro plantlets; five auxins: indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), indole-...

Disinfection procedures for in vitro propagation of Anthurium

Disinfection of plant material is the most important step of the tissue culture protocol. In this process, an attempt is made to eliminate microbial contaminants from the surface and interior of plant material, thus giving the explant a fighting chance at survival in vitro. Initial cultures of Anthurium species and cultivars, which are usually established from ex vitro material grown in a green...

Micro Morphological Study of Several Populations of Zataria multiflora Boiss.

Zataria multiflora Boiss. is  one of the most important species of the Lamiaceae family, which has numerous medicinal properties in traditional medicine, and is related to the thyme species in terms of botanical features and composition of essential oil. In this research, the anatomical characteristics of vegetative organs including leaves, inflorescence, stems and petioles of 4 popula...

Micro Propagation of Eucalyptus globules Through Mature Trees

Eucalyptus globulus is an important rapid-growing trees in Eucalypts that applied for agroforestry and tree improvement programs. It has been used as a source of pulp in paper industry, essential oil and honey production. Asexual propagation with conventional methods such as cutting and graft wasnot possible or obtained success was very low, because of hard proliferation of adventitious roots. ...
