During post-embryonic development, roots can be initiated by a programmed developmental order or by environmental and wound stimulation (Bellini et al., 2014; Xu and Huang, 2014; Birnbaum, 2016; Ikeuchi et al., 2016; Kareem et al., 2016; Lup et al., 2016; Rellan-Alvarez et al., 2016; Steffens and Rasmussen, 2016). De novo root regeneration (DNRR) is a type of plant regeneration to produce adven...

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...

The genus of Helichrysum comprises many species which have therapeutical effects and used in folk medicine. H. pallasii is one these species, the region for traditional medicine ornamental purposes. Therefore, optimizing alternative micropropagation protocols tissue culture conditions secondary metabolite production needs attention. effect Thidiazuran (TDZ) combined with Zeatin (ZEA) on shoot r...

Micropropagation techniques have been widely applied in globe artichoke (C. cardunculus L. var. scolymus), however, efficient protocols for the establishment of in vitro callogenesis and organogenesis, a pre-requisite for Agrobacteriummediated genetic transformation, have not been set up so far. We developed an efficient protocol for callus induction from leaf explants of three globe artichoke ...

We investigated the effects of various concentrations of diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate (DA-6) on the regeneration and growth of adventitious buds in in vitro purple coneflower cultures. Among the 3 types of explants tested, leaf explants required higher concentrations of DA-6 than petiole and root explants in order to obtain high regeneration rates, while root explants required the lowest concen...

Production of genetically and phenotypically stable plantlets is the main purpose in commercial strawberry tissue culture. In this study, different tissues of Fragaria ananassa cv. Camarosa including stipule, apical meristem, leaf and petiole were cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented withdifferent concentrations of N6-benzyladenine (BA) (0.5, 1, ...

In vitro flowering and fruiting were induced in plants regenerated from calli of leaf explants of Lycopersicon esculentum var. Pant 11. MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/l BAP displayed the best response followed by MS with 2 mg/l BAP, 1 mg/ l ABA and 0.5 mg/l IAA. Flower buds were developed both directly from callus and regenerated plantlets from leaf explants under 16 h (39.3 μmol m-2s-1) phot...

A new approach was established for the regeneration of Trichosanthes kirilowii from root, stem, and leaf explants by somatic embryogenesis (SE), involving a previously unreported SE structure, rhizoid tubers (RTBs). During SE, special rhizoids were first induced from root, stem, and leaf explants with average rhizoid numbers of 62.33, 40.17, and 11.53 per explant, respectively, on Murashige and...
