In the plant regeneration process, a great deal of variability is observable between different varieties and genotypes. Even within the same genotype, there are differences in the intensity of this process. New biologically active substances are currently being tested to increase the effectiveness of regeneration in plants. Among them are zearelonene (ZEN) – a substance obtained from an extract...

chlorogenic acid, a pharmacologically important compound, is a phenolic compound that occurs in certain commonly used medicinal herbs. we looked for the presence of this compound in the callus cultures of varthemia persica dc (var. persica ). we have evaluated the conditions for establishment of callus cultures of v. persica and the in vitro production of chlorogenic acid. callus was initiated ...

Bourne (1944), describing the healing mechanism in tilt femoral defects, slated that initially they are filled by osteoid proliferation from the periosteum. Ma/.arow (I960) found that in the dog mandible the defect is tilled in from its cut surface and by bone trabeculae stemming chiefly from the periosteum. Mclchcr and Irving (1962) studied the healing mechanism in circumscribed defects in rat...

Leaf and stem explants excised from young plant of B.diffusa  were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing agar (0.8%), sucrose (2.5%) and varied concentration of Indole butyric acid (IBA), Napthyl acetic acid (NAA), 2,4 - dichloro phenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) and Picrolam. Leaf explants has given better response for both rooting and callus formation. IBA in a concentration of 5μM...

This study evaluated the feasibility of assessing continuous strain distributions on fracture callus cross-sections with an electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) system. Mid-sagittal callus cross-sections were harvested from ovine tibiae. One low stiffness (LS) specimen and one high stiffness (HS) specimen were selected to evaluate the feasibility for strain acquisition over a range ...

Callus cultures from root explants of Lathyrus sativus L. ‘Derek’ were tested for their morphogenic capacity. Primary explants (fragments of roots) were cultivated on three induction media. We obtained three lines of callus tissue among which we identified two non-embryogenic lines and one embryogenic line. Callus originally cultivated on modified MS medium supplemented with 0.05 mgL picloram, ...

Image Processing based computerized expert system has been developed in the context of fracture treatment of patient. The tibia fracture has been taken into account for various possibilities of the cure analysis. Callus formation along with the Patient tenderness jointly signifies the treatment. The concept of fuzzification between the callus formation between fragment of broken bones and other...

Callus tissues induced from shoots of species in the orange subfamily (Aurantioideae) were grafted in vitro to evaluate the correlation between reaction at the callus graft interface and taxonomic relationship. The graft interface between two pieces of callus from species that are taxonomically close was not distinguishable by anatomical observations. On the other hand, in the combinations of l...

Cytokinin oxidase activity from Phaseolus vulgaris cv Great Northern callus cultures exhibited affinity for the lectin concanavalin A. Over 80% of the activity extracted from the callus tissue bound to a concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B column. The bound activity was eluted from the column by the addition of methylmannose to the eluting buffer. On the basis of this result, it appears that most of th...

Chrysanthemum nodal explants were cultured on 1⁄2 X MS medium containing different combinations of growth hormones. A reasonable callus formed on explants when MS contained 0.5 mg. cm each of BAP and NAA after about 3 weeks. Similar results were obtained on MS + 0.5 mg. cm BAP + 0.1 mg. cm NAA or 1.0 mg. cm BAP + 0.1 mg. cm NAA. A maroonish embryogenic callus was formed on MS containing BAP onl...
