The existing gaps in yield potential, production of poor quality, un-attractive fruits and negligible export potential of quality litchi fruit are the main concerns. These need to be combated in modern day fruit production to meet the ever increasing demand to nourish the growing population and increasing the economic returns. Plant growth hormones play important role in the integrated developm...

Irish potatoes are amongst the most highly grown and demanded crops in Kenya for food, industrial starch, animal feed. Farmers, however, face a serious challenge regarding timely availability of well-sprouted seed potato tubers due to physiological dormancy period 2–3 months, thereby reducing production cycles. This study determined effects different chitting methods on enhancing presprouting v...

Background Flowers have a species-specific, limited life span with an irreversible programme of senescence, which is largely independent of environmental factors, unlike leaf senescence, which is much more closely linked with external stimuli. Timing Life span of the whole flower is regulated for ecological and energetic reasons, but the death of individual tissues and cells within the flower i...

Abstract. Mubarok S, Wicaksono FY, Nuraini A, Rahmat BPN, Budiarto R. 2022.S hort Communication: Agronomical characteristics of sweet corn under different plant growth regulators during the dry season. Biodiversitas 23: 3091-3098. Sweet (Zea mays convar. saccharata var. rugosa)is one important horticultural crops. Increasing production season can be achieved by applying (PGR). PGRs such as auxi...

For thousands of years, secondary metabolites have been utilized as medications, flavors, pesticides, and dyes. the generation valuable metabolites, in vitro plant culture techniques viewed beneficial alternatives to whole plants. Brugmansia suaveolens is an ornamental including anticholinergic agents which are employed medicine. Callus induction was performed from leaf internode explants cultu...

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 ...

Chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) is a low-height perennial or biennial herb from the family of Asteraceae. Investigation different in vitro regeneration strategies Cichorium and increasing number secondary metabolites regenerated plant samples were aims research. Callus regenerations achieved basal growth media supplemented with regulators (PGRs). Whole was carried out by direct organogenesis lea...

Soil salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses restricting plant growth and development. Application regulators (PGRs) a possible practical means for minimizing salinity-induced yield losses, can be used in addition to or as an alternative crop breeding enhancing tolerance. The PGRs auxin, cytokinin, nitric oxide, brassinosteroid, gibberellin, salicylic acid, abscisic jasmonate, ethylene ha...
