Effect of Explant, Type and Concentration Hormone on Callus Induction Regeneration two Iranian Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) Cultivars

In the present study, an efficient protocol has been developed for callus induction and production of RA in callus culture of Satureja khuzistanica for the first time. In-vitro callus induction was achieved from young shoot tip explants cultured on MS and B5 media supplemented with different concentrations of IBA (0.1, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 mgL(-1)) solely or in combination with cytokinins BAP and K...

BACKGROUND Panicum hallii Vasey (Hall's panicgrass) is a compact, perennial C4 grass in the family Poaceae, which has potential to enable bioenergy research for switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.). Unlike P. hallii, switchgrass has a large genome, allopolyploidy, self-incompatibility, a long life cycle, and large stature-all suboptimal traits for rapid genetics research. Herein we improved tissue...

 Stevia rebaudiana Bert (Asteraceae) is herbaceous plant with sweet leaves, which are the source of sweetener products. The present study focuses on effects of different combination of plant growth regulators on callus induction, callus cell growth and regeneration and volatile constituents from callus of stevia in tissue culture condition. The results of present study showed callus formation p...

Cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) as a member of the Apiaceae family is one of the most important medicinal plants in Iran. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of plant growth regulators and explant type on callus induction in cumin. For this purpose the cumin seeds (Kuhbanan accession) were disinfected with sodium hypochlorite and alcohol and cultured on MS basal medium. Leaf and hypo...

St Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze] is an important warm season turf and pasture grass. In vitro tissue culture of St Augustinegrass could serve as an important mean for its improvement through genetic transformation as well as induced somaclonal variation. To optimize tissue culture conditions for plant regeneration of St Augustinegrass, tissue culture responses of 11 ex...

Different sugarcane varieties (CP 77/400, CP 85/1491 and Punjabi) were checked for its callus induction and regeneration capabilities using different growth regulators and explants (eye bud, upper portion of inner leaf whorls and lower portion of inner leaf whorls). Seven callus induction media i.e. CIM-1 to CIM-6 and control media, five shoot induction media i.e. SIM-1 to SIM-4 and control med...

low efficiency of callus induction and green-plant regeneration have limited the application of anther culture in breeding programs. this study was conducted to determine the inheritance of callus induction and plant regeneration in rice (oryza sativa) anther culture. ten genotypes drived from a five-parent diallel mating set contain khazar, sepidrood, hashemi, alikazemi and nematt were evaluat...
