Dog rose (Rosa canina) has been using as a rootstock for ornamental roses also it is one of the medicinal plants. It can be propagated under in vitro conditions. After removing chilling requirement of buds, axillary wood buds of dog rose were cut in three nodal positions (lower, middle and terminal) on the stem and then explants after decontamination, cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium (MS ...

We analyzed DNA damage, mitotic activity and polyploidization in Crepis capillaris callus cells during shortand long-term in vitro culture, and the influence of plant growth regulators on these processes. Changes in the concentration of growth regulators altered the stability of callus. The level of DNA damage was highly dependent on the growth regulator composition of the medium. Cytokinin at ...

Normal development and function of the placenta is critical to achieving a successful pregnancy, as normal fetal growth depends directly on the transfer of nutrients from mother to fetus via this organ. Recently, it has become apparent from both animal and human studies that growth factors within the maternal circulation, for example the IGFs, are important regulators of placental development a...

Plant growth regulators play important roles in plant growth and development, but little is known about the roles of plant growth regulators in manifestation yield components, yield and seed qualities of soybean. An attempt has been made to elaborate the subject with emphasis on important plant growth regulators viz. auxins, cytokinins, Gibberellins and abscisic acid and others. Some environmen...

Growth regulators are chemicals that alter the growth and development of plants. They may be natural or artificial, and typically they are active at very low concentrations. The most important plant growth regulators are the hormones, auxin, gibberellin, ethylene, cytokinin, and abscisic acid. Other growth regulators often act by modifying the action of the natural hormones. For example, naphth...

to investigate the effects of methyl jasmonate growth regulators on growth characteristics, fruit number and fruit yield of ‘semsuri’ melon, an experiment at the field of shahid bahonar university was conducted in summer 2012. melon (cv. ‘semsuri’) is widely cultivated in iran and therefore increasing the fruit yield and quality of this cultivar is necessary. some growth regulators including me...

In order to study the germination and growth of pepper seeds, a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with three replications was conducted. The first factor was consisting of five cultivars of pepper (Marquiza, Cadia, California Wonder, California Wonder 310 and California Wonder 300) and the second factor was gibberellic acid with three levels (0 as control, 250 and 500...
