Regeneration of Plantlets from Leaf Derived Callus of Ammi Majus-a Medicinal Plant
نویسنده
چکیده
An efficient protocol was developed for high frequency plant regeneration from leaf explants of Ammi majus. Ammi majus L. (Apiaceae) is a herb of pharmaceutical as well as ornamental interest and used in the treatment of leucoderma. Since in Ammi majus the seed set and germination is poor attempts were made to propagate the plants through tissue culture. The callus from cotyledonary leaves obtained on Murashige and Skoog’s (MS) medium supplemented with α-indoleacetic acid (IAA) + Kinetin (Kn) + Casein hydrolysate (CH), differentiated shoots in 100% cultures when adenine and glutamine were added to the above medium. Plantlets resulted on MS medium with indolebutyric acid (IBA) and glutamine.

An in vitro regeneration protocol through stem callus culture has been standardized for the medicinal climber Clematis gouriana. The explant induced callus on MS-medium supplemented with 0.5 to 1.5 mg l BAP and 0.1 to 0.5 mg l NAA. The optimized callus induction occurred at the concentration of 1.0 mg l BAP and 0.3 mg l NAA. After initiation of callus, it was immediately transferred to MS mediu...
