In this study, the effects of various agricultural LED lights (LED NN), including single red LED (R), single blue LED (B), and four combinations of blue, red, and warm white (W) LED (BR, BRW1, BRW2, BRW3) on the growth and development of C. militaris (Link.) Fries were evaluated in vitro. After 7 days, samples subjected to LED NN showed shorter sporocarp sprouting time and higher sprouting ratio than the control, which was subjected to T5 fluorescent light. After 2 months, LED lights with high red ratio, such as single red LED and LED BR, had suppressing effect on the growth and development of C. militaris (Link.) Fries. On the other hand, combinations of red, blue, and warm white such as LED BRW1, LED BRW2, and LED BRW3 had the positive impact on the growth and development of this fungus. Notably, samples subjected to LED BRW2 reached 5.79 cm in height, fresh biomass of 3.67 g/20 samples. Cordycepin and Adenosine levels were 64.2 and 6.37 mg/100 g fresh mass, respectively. All of studied  indicators were the higher compared to those of the control and other LED lighting schemes. Therefore, it can be conlcuded that LED lighting combination with BRW2 ratio of 1:5:1 and luminous intensity of 45±2 µmol.m-2.s-1 (511,59 Lux) was suitable for the growth and development of C. militaris (Link.) Friesand a potential replacement of fluorescent light for C. militaris (Link.) Friesin vitro propagation.

Aim. The main aim of the study was to analyze the effect of microgravity on the growth and development of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings at different time intervals of cultivation (4–10 days) and to investigate the development of autophagy induced by the conditions of microgravity in seedlings root cells. Methods. Microscopic methods as well as in vitro propagation method were used. To simulate of microgravity conditions plants were placed in clinostat machine. Results. In the course of experiments, the peaks of the formation of autophagosome were recorded: in the cells of the root cap zone of at 9th day and in the cells of the root zone extension on the 10th day of clinical establishment. Conclusions. It can be concluded that microgravity is capable to induce the development of autophagy in the roots of A. thaliana seedlings. Cells with signs of autophagy were revealed on the 9th and 10th day of cultivation of seedlings under microgravity conditions. Keywords: Arabidopsis thaliana, autophagy, microgravity.

The objective of this study was to identify effective carbon sources for the in vitro propagation of PLBs in Dendrobium cultivars Dendrobium kingianum ‘Hallelujah’ and Dendrobium k. Jonathan’s Glory ‘Dark Joy’. In this study, we used two types of carbon sources to culture the cultivars under five different LED lights. For, both carbon sources the highest numbers of PLBs were obtained with the green LEDs compared with the other LED lights. For Dendrobium kingianum ‘Hallelujah’ the trehalose supplemented medium produced the highest number of PLBs (13.8/explant) and the maximum fresh weight (0.45g/explant) under green LEDs. On the other hand, for Dendrobium k. Jonathan’s Glory ‘Dark Joy’, the sucrose supplemented medium produced the highest number of PLBs under green LED (8.0/explant, fresh weight 0.22g/explants) and the trehalose supplemented medium produced the maximum number of PLBs under white LEDs (8.1/explants, fresh weight 0.23g/explants). The sucrose was the most relevant carbon source for the in vitro organogenesis of Dendrobium k. Jonathan’s Glory ‘Dark Joy’, while trehalose was best under white LEDs.

Cattleya trianae (Linden & Reichb.f., 1860), Colombian national flower, is in danger of extinction due to the destruction of its natural habitats and excessive collection for horticultural purposes. Therefore, in vitro culture is a tool for the conservation of threatened species. In this study we determined the most suitable culture medium for asimbytic seed germination and in vitro propagation of C. trianae. Initially, mature capsules were collected, the seeds were subsequently disinfected and seeded with the syringe method (Vendrame et al., 2007), to evaluate the effect of five media on the development of C. trianae after 20 weeks. The seedlings were transplanted and acclimated using different substrates. The best percentage (54.2%) of seedling formation after 20 weeks was found in MS + JP medium with significant differences (P <0.05: Tukey HSD). In this research, it is reported that the addition of organic additives to the MS medium improves the efficacy of this, and therefore, allows a greater growth and development of C. trianae under in vitro conditions.

ABSTRACT The influence of two aromatic cytokinins (CKs), 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and meta-topolin (mT), on in vitro propagation and redox metabolism of sugarcane (Saccharum spp., variety RB98710) was investigated. Plants were cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with mT (5 µmol.L-1) or BAP (5 or 6.66 µmol.L-1) for 40 days. The use of mT provided an increase in the multiplication rate and stem length of plants and shoots when compared to BAP. Shoots generated from the mT treatment presented low malondialdehyde (MDA) content and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, although they had higher hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) content. Thus, the H2O2 did not act as a stress marker, but it is related to plant growth and development processes.

Background: Humic substances plays a vital role in the plant tissue culture as a growth hormone for in vitro propagation of many plant seedlings. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of added humic-fulvate complex (HFC) at the various concentrations on the growth and development of grape seedlings in in vitro at the different nutrient levels. Methods: The cutting of khasansky grape were cultivated on ¼ Murashige and Skoog medium or ½ Murashige and Skoog medium either alone or supplemented with the humic-fulvate complex at the different concentrations at (0.1, 1 and 10 ml/l). Then, they were cultured for 4 weeks under a controlled environment. Result: The data observed that the low concentration of Murashige and Skoog medium (¼ MS) for in vitro rooting of grape cv. ‘Khasansky’ either alone or combined with HFC at the various concentrations significantly increased the rooting percentages and the total length of roots and stimulating the rate of vegetative growth compared with cultivated in ½ MS medium either alone or with supplemented with HFC. ¼ MS+ 10 ml/l HFC was the best treatment for improving the growth of khasansky grape seedlings.
