The effects of sugar concentration and strength of basal medium were studied to produce plants from somatic embryos in Asparagus of®cinalis L. There was a signi®cant difference among concentrations of sugar but not among kinds of sugar tested in the present experiment in growth of shoots and roots. When the sucrose concentrations were 10, 30, or 50 g lÿ1, the fresh weight of shoots were 31.5, 1...

In order to investigate the effects of salt stress on biochemical and physiological responses of two cultivars of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) namely, Diabolourde and Yazdi, chlorophyll content, growth parameters, and proline contents of roots and shoots, reducing sugars contents of roots and shoots, and membrane injuries of the plant samples were subjected to 0, 100, 150, and 200 mM NaCl treat...

It is well known that a long defoliated piece of stem of Bryophyllum calycinum forms shoots only at the apical or the two apical nodes, while when such a stem is cut into as many pieces as there are nodes each node produces shoots. It is shown in this paper that the dry weight of shoots produced in the apical nodes of a long piece of stem is approximately equal to the dry weight of shoots the s...

The structure of seasonal dynamics daily growth shoots basket willow (Salix viminalis) is described and analyzed. Object: model inbred-clone population S. viminalis. Material: developing on annual saplings from cuttings. Methods: comparative morphological, chronobiological, numerical analysis time series. formation dimorphic root systems one-year cuttings described. It established that the incr...

With the aim of micropropagation of Phyllanthus amarus, an important medicinal herb, shoot tips were cultured in Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with kinetin/ BAP singly or in combination with IAA. Growth regulators at lower range (0.1-1.0 mg L(-1)) stimulated direct regeneration of shoots. Kinetin was superior to BAP and kinetin-IAA combination was more suitable than kinetin alone. A...

in this research, the effect of different concentrations of chitosan (with low molecular weight) on in vitro proliferation of grape cultivar, ’bidaneh ghermez‘, was evaluated. 30 days after establishment, elongated shoots were cultured on the half strength murashige and skoog medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l bap, 0.1 mg/l iba and different chitosan concentrations (0, 10, 20, 40 and 80 mg/l). t...

in order to evaluate the effects of sodium bicarbonate of irrigation water on the physiology and growth characteristics ofwalnut genotypes, a factorial experiment was performed with two factors including bicarbonate at 3 levels (0, 20 and 40 mm) and walnut genotypes (including local genotype a and wild genotypes b and c), based on completely random design. in this study, the effect of bicarbona...
