Three explants such as stem tips, leaves and petioles of Heracleum scabridum were compared for their shoot development/differentiation ability by using different plant growth regulators (PGRs). The most effective PGRs combination for callus induction and organogenesis was determined. TDZ, Kn, Zn and IAA were used to induce multiple shoots. For indirect organogenesis (from the calli), the best response (27.25 ± 4.19 shoot per stem tips) and (18.23 ± 2.12 per leaves) were obtained in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium fortified with 0.5 mg/l IAA and 3.0 mg/l Zn with 100, 97.3% induction rate, respectively. MS medium containing 0.5 mg/l IAA and 3.0 mg/l Zn was also found to be optimal for shoot regeneration from petioles. The highest percentage of regeneration (94.6) with mean number of shoots 17.83 ± 4.87 from petioles were produced. For direct organogenesis (from axillary bud shoot clumps), 0.1 mg/l IAA and 1.5 mg/l TDZ were found to be optimal for shoot regeneration of stem tips, with mean numbers of axillary bud shoot clumps 7.12 ± 1.23 were produced. Plantlets were transferred to soil with 95% of plants acclimatized recovered successfully.

Efforts have been made to establish a protocol for direct multiple shoot regeneration from both in vitro grown seedlings and mature plants of Citrus macroptera. Both nodal and shoot tip explants taken from in vitro grown seedlings were cultured in MS supplemented with different concentrations of BAP and Kn either singly or in combinations. Both these explants are capable to regenerate and produce in vitro multiple shoots. Maximum number of shoots were obtained from nodal explants in MS supplemented with 1.0 mg/l BAP. BAP alone was found superior to Kn. On the other hand, only nodal explants from mature plants were used and 1.0 mg/1 BAP was also found best suitable for shoot induction and multiplication. Ex vitro rooting in pot soil (mixed with biogas slurry derived from cow-dung) was most successful compared to in vitro rooting in half strength of MS supplemented with different concentrations of NAA and IBA. Key words: In vitro, Shoot regeneration, Citrus macroptera D.O.I. 10.3329/ptcb.v18i1.3246 Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 18(1): 17-24, 2008 (June)

Digitalis trojana Ivanina is a member of the Plantaginaceae family and known by its common name, Helen of Troy foxglove. It is perennial endemic to Çanakkale and Balıkesir, northwestern Turkey. In order to develop an efficient shoot regeneration protocol, the leaf explants of D. trojana were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 6-benzyl adenine (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, 5.0 mg/L) and α-naphthalene acetic acid (0.1, 0.5, 1.0 mg/L), 3% (w/v) sucrose and 0.8% (w/v) agar. The highest number of regenerated shoots was obtained from leaf explants that were cultured on MS medium with 3.0 mg/L BA+0.1 mg/L NAA. Regenerated shoots were rooted on MS medium without plant growth regulators. Rooted plants (2–3 cm) were separately transferred to pots containing a mixture of peat and perlite (2:1 v/v) and acclimatized successfully in a growth chamber.
