An efficient genetically stable regeneration protocol with increased phytochemical production has been established for Dendrobium nobile, a highly prized orchid for its economic and medicinal importance. Protocorm like bodies (PLBs) were induced from the pseudostem segments using thidiazuron (TDZ; 1.5 mg/l), by-passing the conventional auxin-cytokinin complement approach for plant regeneration....

Orchardgrass, or cocksfoot, is an important perennial forage grass worldwide. The comprehensive understanding of orchardgrass accessions will benefit germplasm collection and breeding progress, and it will enhance efforts to improve forage yield and quality. Therefore, 24 novel, simple, polymorphic, and reliable start codon-targeted (SCoT) markers were used to analyze the diversity and genetic ...

Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Many trials to date have investigated the diagnostic accuracy of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) when compared to the gold standard diagnostic test, invasive coronary angiography. However, whether the use of a non-invasive anatomical test, such as CCTA, can translate into improved patient risk stratification, manag...

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is one of the recognized plant species that considered most traditional natural supplements. Tissue culture an efficient method as fast and affordable in propagation. Few studies have discussed genetic impact such on ashwagandha plant. The aim this research was to identify stability micropropagated plantlets assess vitro-propagation somaclonal variability using ...

Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is an important food security crop with economic, nutritional, and medicinal value. It a source of carbohydrates for millions people in tropical sub-tropical regions Africa, Asia, South America, the Caribbean, Pacific Islands. Determining appropriate parents breeding programs most decision that plant breeders must make to maximize genetic variability produce excellent recom...

This investigation was carried out for genetic characterization and determination of drought tolerance ten Egyptian cultivars wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), namely Misr 1, 2, Gemmiza 9, 10, 11, 12, Shandawel Giza 168, 171, Sids 14. These were grown in two winter seasons: 2018/2019 2019/2020 at the experimental farm Fac. Agric., Suez Canal Univ., Ismailia, Egypt, under watering regimes: normal (1...

Pomegranate is one of the oldest known fruit crops, well adapted to hot and dry areas successfully grown in Mediterranean countries. During last two decades, numerous publications have revealed traditionally associations between pomegranate consumption health benefits, which led increased demand by consumers expansion cultivation areas. with diverse pedoclimatic conditions local cultivars could...
