conventional methods of pear breeding, largely based on intra- and inter-specific hybridization, are difficult because pear is highly heterozygous, polygenic and has a long juvenile period. genetic improvements of pear cultivars are possible through induction of mutations and gene transfer by genetic engineering. a general prerequisite for these approaches is to establish an efficient plant reg...

parsi zira, bunium persicum (boiss.) b. fedtsch., or black zira, a member of the umbellifera family, is one of the most important medicinal species with high economic value. generally, there is limited information about in vitro culture of bunium persicum. in this study, the effect of various media (ms, b5) and combinations of plant growth regulators, naa and 2,4-d alone or together with kin, o...

hyssop (hyssopus officinalis l.), belongs to the family of lamiaceae which its origin is asia minor, and is considered as one of the most important medicinal plant. this experiment was done to study the effects of population and bap concentrations on hyssop plant regeneration under in vitro culture conditions. this research were performed in factorial experiment with three populations (hamadan,...

Among different doses of gamma rays, 1.5 kR induced 71.84% callus in Basrnati rice in amodified MS medium and 2% redifferentiation under anon-saline environment, 20% callusing response with 7.5%,2.8% and 2.5% redifferentiation was induced by 2.0 kR at electrical conductivity (EC) of 4,s and 6 dS.m of NaCl respectively, in regeneration medium. A non-irradiated non-saline environment reveale...

for half a century, the limitations of obtaining cross-combinations in lilies because of the incompatibility and incongruity between different varieties have been known. somatic hybridization is one of the most powerful tools for achieving distant interspecific hybrids. for this purpose, protoplast preparation is a first and important step in efficient system for the regeneration of plants from...

background and objectives: bitter melon is one of the anti-cancer medicinal plants that it’s wide level in vitro propagation and anti-cancer material production was necessary. different factors such as genotype, selected explants’ type and it`s preparation conditions influenced regeneration content. plant growth regulator`s effect on callogenesis and indirect regeneration from parangipetai indi...
