Micropropagation of Alternanthera Sessilis (L.) Using Shoot Tip and Nodal Segments
A rapid in vitro propagation system has been established from mature shoot tip and nodal segments of ahighly valuable medicinal plant Alternanthera sessilis (L.). The explants were cultured on Murashige andSkoog’s medium augmented with different concentrations and combinations of plant growth regulators forshoot bud initiation and multiplications. For shoot tip, highest freque...
متن کاملMicropropagation of Calophyllum brasiliense (Cambess.) from nodal segments.
Micropropagation of Calophyllum brasiliense Cambess. (Clusiaceae) is a way to overcome difficulties in achieving large-scale plant production, given the recalcitrant nature of the seeds, irregular fructification and absence of natural vegetative propagation of the species. Cultures were established using nodal segments 2 cm in length, obtained from 1-2 year old seedlings, maintained in a greenh...
متن کاملGrowth and Distribution of Roots of Dioscorea Alata L. Do Not Respond to Mineral Fertiliser Application
Water yam (Dioscorea alata) is a staple crop for many of the poorest in the tropics. Yam tuber response to fertiliser application has been reported to be erratic. We hypothesised that this variable response could be due to the development of a suboptimal root system that would not allow the plant to capture the nutrients added with the fertiliser. To verify this hypothesis we studied during two...
متن کاملAntiosteoporotic Activity of Dioscorea alata L. cv. Phyto through Driving Mesenchymal Stem Cells Differentiation for Bone Formation
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of an ethanol extract of the rhizomes of Dioscorea alata L. cv. Phyto, Dispo85E, on bone formation and to investigate the mechanisms involved. Our results showed that Dispo85E increased the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bone nodule formation in primary bone marrow cultures. In addition, Dispo85E stimulated pluripotent C3H10T1/2 stem ...
متن کاملMicropropagation of Ilex dumosa (Aquifoliaceae) from nodal segments in a tissue culture system.
Micropropagation of Ilex dumosa var. dumosa R. ("yerba señorita") from nodal segments containing one axillary bud was investigated. Shoot regeneration from explants of six-year-old plants was readily achieved in 1/4 strength Murashige and Skoog medium (1/4 MS) plus 30 gr x L(-1) sucrose and supplemented with 4.4 microM BA. Further multiplication and elongation of the regenerated shoots were obt...
