Lychnis cognate Maxim and Lychnis fulgens Fish. Ex Spreng are two valued ornamental plants in Korea. Soaking of seeds in GA3 solution remarkably promoted germination up to 60%, but the control (0 mg/l) was not effective (> 5%). To select an adequate temperature for seed germination, seeds, previously soaked in a 1000 mg/l GA3 for 24 hrs, were incubated at 15, 20, 25, and 30°C. Seed germination of over 20% was obtained at 15, 20, and 25°C, but only 10% at 30°C. These results indicate that the seeds of L. cognate and L. fulgens are in a such dormant state that they hardly germinate even by dormancy breaker (GA3) and low (15 ? 25°C) temperature treatment. The highest callus induction was observed in the leaf explants of the seedlings on MS containing specific concentrations of 3.0 mg/l BA and 1.0 mg/l NAA. The adventitious shoot was formed < 90% of calli on 1/2 WPM medium. The height of in vitro propagated plantlet was no different media used for regeneration. This in vitro propagation protocol should be useful for conservation of endangered and ornamental plant.Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 25(1): 1-12, 2015 (June)

The experiment was conducted to investigate the performance of three different genotypes (BARI Sarisha-6, BARI Sarisha-8, and BARI Sarisha-11) in two different media viz., MS and B5 with different concentrations of phytohormone (2, 4-D) for callus induction from uninucleate stage anthers of Brassica and subsequent plant regeneration in MS media with different concentrations of phytohormone (BAP and NAA). Among the genotypes, BARI Sarisha-8 showed the best performance for all the parameters of callus induction. The performance of BARI Sarisha-6 was poor compared to others. Maximum rate of callus induction (%) was observed in MS + 0.5 mg/L 2, 4-D followed by B5 + 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D. The media combination MS + 1.0 mg/L BAP 0.3 mg/L 2,4-D showed the best performance for maintenance of calli. Significant variations were observed among the genotypes and media composition for shoot regeneration. Among the genotypes, BARI Sarisha-8 showed the best performance for shoot regeneration followed by BARJ Sarisha-l1. The genotype BARI Sarisha-8 produced higher percent of shoots/calli and required minimum days for shoot initiation. Higher percent calli without shoot were produced by the genotype BARI Sarisha-6. The media combination MS + 2.0 mg/L BAP + 0.5 mg/L NAA showed the best performance for shoot regeneration and required maximum days for shoot initiation.

ABSTRACT Indonesia is rich in rice genetic diversity in the form of javanica rice. Subspecies javanica have some superiority characters, among others a strong plant tissue, but in generally they have low productivity. Weaknesses of javanica rice can be repaired by biotechnology through genetic transformation techniques from callus of plant. Auxin types and genotypes are important factors for callus induction and plant regeneration. Therefore, this research held for know callus introduction and plant regeneration of three varieties of Javanica rice (Pendok, Genjah Arum, and Menthik Wangi Susu) combined with type of auxin (2,4-D and pychloram). The experimental design of RALs two factorials, there are three varieties of rice (Pendok, Genjah Arum, and Menthik Wangi Susu) and two types of auxin (2,4-D and Pychloram) and analyzed by DMRT α5%. The results of this study is Mentik Wangi Susu have highest regeneration than Pendok and Genjah Arum. The use of 2,4-D resulted in a higher callus induction and plant regeneration than pychloram in the three rice varieties used. While the best combination of treatments for callus induction and regeneration is Menthik Wangi Susu and 2,4-D. Keyword: auxin, javanica, callus induction, plant regeneration. ABSTRAK Indonesia kaya akan keragaman genetik padi berupa padi javanica. Padi sub spesies javanica memiliki beberapa keunggulan diantaranya jaringan tanaman yang kuat, namun pada umumnya mempunyai tingkat produktivitas gabah yang rendah. Kelemahan pada padi javanica dapat diperbaiki dengan bioteknologi melalui teknik transformasi genetik menggunakan jaringan kalus. Genotip dan jenis auksin merupakan faktor penting dalam induksi kalus dan regenerasi tanaman padi secara in vitro. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini dilaksanakan untuk mengetahui daya pembentukan kalus dan regenerasi pada tiga varietas padi javanica, yaitu Pendok, Genjah Arum, dan Menthik Wangi Susu yang dikombinasikan dengan perlakuan jenis auksin berupa penggunaan 2,4-D dan pikloram. Rancangan percobaan yang digunakan adalah RAL dua faktorial yaitu varietas tanaman padi dan jenis auksin  dengan pengujian  menggunakan DMRT α5%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari ketiga varietas padi yang digunakan, varietas Mentik Wangi Susu menunjukan daya regenerasi yang tertinggi dibandingkan varietas Pendok dan Genjah Arum.  Penggunaan 2,4-D menghasilkan tingkat pengkalusan dan regenerasi yang tinggi dibandingkan pikloram pada tiga varietas padi yang digunakan. Sedangkan kombinasi perlakuan yang terbaik untuk induksi kalus dan daya regenerasi adalah penggunaan varietas Menthik Wangi Susu dan auksin dalam bentuk 2,4-D.  Kata Kunci: auksin, javanica, induksi kalus, regenerasi tanaman.

An efficient indirect plant regeneration protocol was developed for Viola canescens, an important medicinal herb used in broad spectra of diseases in number of folk medicines since aeon. Excessive use of this plant without any rehabilitating measure has led to decline its natural population. Present investigation reports the use of zeatin to regenerate the plant from the callus on MS following its acclimatization on the soil condition. Calli of the plant responded positively to zeatin and maximum number of shoots 13.07 ± 2.01 were obtained when 9.12 μM concentration of zeatin was used. Regenerated shoots were subsequently rooted with IBA on MS and half strength MS and showed maximum number of roots 14.13 ± 1.64 after 60 days when medium was fortified with 4.92 μM IBA, followed by transferring them to soil condition, acclimatization of the plantlet was carried in growth chamber and then finally to the field for their survival where it showed 80% survival.
