Multiple shoot clumps or microclones were collected from two onion (Allium cepa L.) varieties for bulblet formation. MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of BAP, Kn, 2ip and NAA used. The height responded was observed 90% 80% in Taherpuri Indian variety, respectively on 2.0 mg l-1 BAP+0.5 NAA. best formation obtained containing 1.0 2ip. Finally, the rooted bulblets hardened establ...

To optimize conditions for micropropagating Galanthus transcaucasicus Fomin, the effect of explant type, different concentrations of sucrose, type and different concentrations of auxin were examined on bulblet production. For the induction of bulblets, three types of bulb scales were usesd as explants. A two-step sterilization procedure was applied. Assessments were made after incubation for 20...

Efficient procedures are outlined for plant regeneration through direct shoot bud formation and indirect organogenesis through callus formation in Ornithogalum virens Lindl using bulb scale as explant. Murashige and Skoog’s (MS) medium containing 1 mg/L (5.4mM) NAA and 2 mg/L (4.4mM) BA was most effective in direct induction of shoot buds from explant. Callus cultures were raised from the bulb ...

abstract persian shallot (moseer) belongs to alliaceae family, is a perennial medicinal and industrial edible alliums in iran. very little information is available about different aspects of this species particularly on its agronomical production. in order to determine optimum sowing date and plant density in persian shallot, an experiment was conducted as split plot based on complete randomize...
