Polyploid plantlets, including triploid, tetraploid, and mixoploid, were induced from the European pear (Pyrus communis L.) cultivar ‘Fertility’ by in vitro colchicine treatment of leaf explants. The leaf explants were incubated in 0.4% (w/v) colchicine for 24, 48, or 72 h, then transferred to adventitious shoot-induction medium. Regenerated shoots were pre-selected according to their morpholog...

Tissue culture is an attractive alternative for plant propagation. Micropropagation is a technique to ensure a constant and uniform source of ornamental plants. Matthiola incana is an important ornamental species mainly cultivate by seed. Matthiola incana seeds were germinated on solid MS medium without plant growth regulators. Shoot proliferation and root formation are possible using kinetin (...

Cinnamomum tamala is a multipurpose economically important plant. The leaves and bark are used as spice and contributes to the different ‘Ayurvedic’ drug preparation. Due to over-exploitation for spice and medicines, the species is vulnerable in its natural habitat. In the present study, a successful attempt was made for callus mediated plant regeneration of the species from leaf and zygotic em...

background and objectives: bitter melon is one of the anti-cancer medicinal plants that it’s wide level in vitro propagation and anti-cancer material production was necessary. different factors such as genotype, selected explants’ type and it`s preparation conditions influenced regeneration content. plant growth regulator`s effect on callogenesis and indirect regeneration from parangipetai indi...

four separate experiments were conducted to study the effects of factors controlling the establishment of explants from two walnut genotypes z60 and z63 (damavand). factors were explant type, sampling time, explant orientation on the growth medium and antioxidants type. the explants were collected from the collection garden of tooyserkan walnuts research station. four explant types (apical meri...

The genus of Helichrysum comprises many species which have therapeutical effects and used in folk medicine. H. pallasii is one these species, the region for traditional medicine ornamental purposes. Therefore, optimizing alternative micropropagation protocols tissue culture conditions secondary metabolite production needs attention. effect Thidiazuran (TDZ) combined with Zeatin (ZEA) on shoot r...

During post-embryonic development, roots can be initiated by a programmed developmental order or by environmental and wound stimulation (Bellini et al., 2014; Xu and Huang, 2014; Birnbaum, 2016; Ikeuchi et al., 2016; Kareem et al., 2016; Lup et al., 2016; Rellan-Alvarez et al., 2016; Steffens and Rasmussen, 2016). De novo root regeneration (DNRR) is a type of plant regeneration to produce adven...
