Vitex trifolia is a shrub species with popular use as a medicinal plant, for which leaves, roots and flowers have been reported to heal different distresses. The increasing exploitation of these plants has endangered its conservation, and has importantly justified the use of biotechnological tools for their propagation. Our aim was to present an efficient protocol for plant regeneration through...

Campanula phitosiana Yıldırım & Şentürk, is a local endemic to the Aydın Mountain range, which distribute across in Western Anatolia (both İzmir and Aydın). This species belongs Mediterranean basin floristic region. According International Union for Conservation of Nature’s criteria, C. classified as “Critically Endangered” (CR). The aim study develop vitro regeneration protocol critica...

An efficient protocol of common bean transformation using Agrobacterium tumefaciens is still unavailable. Several regeneration reports are available using cotyledonary node or embryonic axis as the starting explants. These explants were used for direct organogenesis exploiting the meristems for direct shoot production. Attempts were made to transform cotyledonary node explants and embryonic axe...

We developed procedures for the micropropagation of Juniperus oxycedrus L. using shoot apices or nodal segments from mature plants. Of the media and explants examined, best culture establishment was obtained with shoot apices cultured on modified Schenk and Hildebrandt medium (SH medium) without growth regulators; however, shoot multiplication was only achieved when shoot apices isolated from s...

dog rose (rosa canina) has been using as a rootstock for ornamental roses also it is one of the medicinal plants. it can be propagated under in vitro conditions. after removing chilling requirement of buds, axillary wood buds of dog rose were cut in three nodal positions (lower, middle and terminal) on the stem and then explants after decontamination, cultured on murashige and skoog medium (ms ...

Explants of leaves, petals, anthers, styles and ovaries of C. speciosus, C. cancellatus, C. gilanicus and C. almehensis were cultured on LS media with three different combinations of NAA and BAP in the dark. Callus and neoformant organs (leaf and corm-like structure and ordinary and contractileroots) were fomd on some of these explants. Corm explants from these species were also cultured on...
