ABSTRACT: This study was designed in order to optimize the indirect organogenesis (during callus induction and regeneration) of Alstroemeria cv. ‘Balance’ through tissue culture technique in two phases; the first stage: callus induction by rhizome segments, leaf and nodal stem which in the start, callus formation media were examined using two types of auxins; 2,4-D and NAA and a cytokinin; BAP in four different experimentations. In the second stage, calli derived from rhizome segments and nodal stem explants were transferred to regeneration media. The results revealed that 2,4-D in combination with BAP in the rhizome segments and nodal stem explants were efficient as compared to NAA. The highest yield of callus formation was also obtained in the rhizome segments explants. According to the results, it can be suggested that NAA as auxin, does not have direct positive effect on cell division in Alstroemeria. The 2,4-D is toxic at high concentrations and may bring about cell death. Eventually, the composition of 0.5 mg/l NAA with 3 mg/l BAP and callus derived from nodal stem explants may be introduced as the best combination for regeneration. These results indicate the necessity of the BAP cytokinin presence for regeneration. In addition, the maximum length of the shoot was obtained from combination of BAP with nodal stem explants, without the presence of NAA.

The experiment was conducted on in vitro regeneration of tomato at the Plant Biotechnology Laboratory, Department of Horticulture, Patuakhali Science and Technology University, Patuakhali. The objective was to develop an efficient regeneration protocol in tomato through callus induction for subsequent plantlet regeneration. Seeds were inoculated on MS medium where germination rate was 78.4%. The stems of in vitrocultured seedlings were used as explants. Different concentrations and combinations of growth regulators were added to MS medium to observe their efficacy on callus induction, shoot initiation and root formation. Stem explants cultured on MS medium fortified with 2 mg/L BAPgave the highest number of shoots (3.0) at 45 DAC. Among the concentrations of PGRs, 0.25 mg/L IAA produced the highest length (4.064 cm) of plantlets, number (5.0) of leaves and fresh weight (0.663 g) of plantlets with the stem explants at 45 DAC. The concentration of 0.5 mg/L IAA produced the highest number (21.00) of roots/plantlet, length (7.676 cm) of roots at 45 DAC, from the same explants. The highest survival rate of in vitro regenerated plantlets in the pot was 70.00 % with the stem explants. The results of the current study showed significant increase in the growth of callus of Solanumlycopersicon Mill. Indicating a good efficiency of the optimized media composition and the experimental model used in comparison to other studies of similar nature.Asian J. Med. Biol. Res.

A rapid and efficient protocol was developed for inducing indirect organogenesis using leaf explants of Vitex negundo L. Explants were cultured on MS with different concentrations of 2,4-D and IAA in combination with BAP for callus induction. The frequency of callus induction increased with increasing concentration of IAA (0.3 mg/l) and BAP (0.3 mg/l) at optimal level. The shoot buds appeared emerging as green coloured protuberances on the callus. The high frequency of shoot bud initiation and shoot proliferation was observed on MS containing 0.3 mg/l IAA and 0.3 mg/l BAP. The regenerated shoots were successfully rooted on MS supplemented with 0.5 mg/l IBA. Rooted plants were transferred to pots containing sand, soil and manure in the ratio of 1 : 1 : 1. Nearly 90% survival of in vitro plants were recorded. Key words : Vitex negundo, In vitro, Leaf, Callus, Regeneration D.O.I. 10.3329/ptcb.v18i1.3263 Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 18(1): 37-42, 2008 (June)

Ananas comosus var. MD2 is currently the most preferred pineapple variety in the international market due to its pleasant aroma and high Brix acidity ratio. In vitro approaches such as callus culture is promising in producing disease-free plantlet. However, there are limited studies reported on callus culture of MD2 variety despite the potential of in vitro regeneration through biotechnological advances. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of plant growth regulators (PGRs) i.e., 2,4- dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and Thidiazuron (TDZ) on callus induction from leaf explant of MD2 pineapple. Leaf base explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) media supplemented with varying concentration of 2,4-D (0.5 to 6.0 mg/L) alone and in combination with BAP (1.0 to 3.0 mg/L). The frequency of callus induction was seen significantly highest (91.67±8.33%) with maximum callus fresh weight (0.25±0.07 g) at a combination of 2.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 2.0 mg/L BAP. The shortest duration of callus formation was seen on day 12 with the lowest concentration of 2,4-D, 0.5 mg/L. There is a moderate correlation between the earliness of callus formation and the frequency of callus induction (P<0.01). The most favourable media for callus proliferation was 6.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 2.0 mg/L TDZ as the highest fresh weight of 1.52±0.03 g was recorded. Callus culture has the potential to be a source of plant material and secondary metabolites production. In this study, 2,4-D and BAP have successfully induced callus in MD2 pineapple.

The article shows the results concerning the problem of the influence of the hormonal composition of the medium on callus induction in isolated from different explants of Egyptian henbane areas (on the example of Hyoscyamus muticus L.). The authors study 11 variants of Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with different concentrations and combination of auxins and cytokinins. It was important to find nutrient medium modification of Murashige and Skoog for callus induction. The article describes the fact that callus formation from different explant types of Hyoscyamus muticus L. in vitro was observed on Murashige and Skoog medium fortified with benzylaminopurine and naphthylacetic acid. It shows that the maximum callus induction was observed from root explants on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l of benzylaminopurine and 1.0 mg/l of naphthylacetic acid. And minimal callus formation was observed in the area with benzylaminopurine. Callus induction of leaf and stem explants both on the hormone-free nutrient medium and with the benzylaminopurine only was not observed. Thus, the results show that the frequency of callus formation with culturing root segment is higher compared to leaf and stem segment explants (on the example of Egyptian henbane in culture in vitro ). This work aims to inducing callus formation from various explants of Egyptian henbane, which can be used for plant regeneration or as a source for in vitro production of secondary metabolites.

Aim. The aim of the research was to choose the conditions for microclonal propagation and obtain callus cultures from Carlina аcaulis L., Carlina cirsioides Klok and Carlina onopordifolia Besser ex Szafer, Kulcz. et Pawl plants in vitro. Methods. For microclonal propagation of С. acaulis, C. cirsioides and C. onopordіfolia we used rosettes of 2–3-month specimens and planted them on semi-solid Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with decreased macro- and microsalts concentrations (MS/2) supplemented with kinetin (Кin) (from 1–3 mg/l) and 0.1 mg/l of 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). For induction of callus formation, we used root, stem explants from С. acaulis, C. cirsioides and C. onopordіfolia, and planted them on nutrient media MS, MS/2, and Gamborg and Eveleigh (В5) supplemented with different concentrations of cytokinins – 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) or Кin and auxins – 2.4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2.4-D) or NAA and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Results. MS/2 medium supplemented with growth regulators of NAA and Кin were the most efficient to provide the formation of microclones. For C. сirsioides plants, this indicator was 6.6–6.8 rosettes per graft after 6 months of cultivation and for С. acaulis and C. onopordіfolia – 4.2–5.0 and 4.8–5.2 respectively. To raise the percentage of rooting for microclones of Carlina species, it was expedient to steep them preliminarily in the solution of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) with 1000 mg/l concentration for a minute. Optimal for obtaining callus tissue from Carlina plants was nutrient medium MS supplemented with 3 mg/l IAA, 0.5 mg/l NAA and 0.5 mg/l Kin and MS/2 with 0.1 mg/l BAP and 0.5 mg/l 2.4-D; under such conditions the percentage of callus induction exceeded 90 % for all types of explants. Conclusions. There were chosen the conditions for microclonal propagation of С. acaulis, C. cirsioides and C. onopordіfolia and worked out the schemes for enrooting obtained microclones in vitro. Capable of growing rapidly callus cultures from root and stem explants of the investigated plant species were obtained.

In vitro propagation is a method to produce massive healthy new planting materials quickly. An experiment was carried out for morphogenic callus induction and regeneration of a domestic sugarcane variety. The Explants used was an inert folded leaf and incubated on modified MS medium augmented with 1 mg/l, 2.5 mg/l, and 5 mg/l of 2,4-D for callus induction. The leaf calluses were subcultured on MS medium enriched with different growth regulators for shoot initiation and multiplication. The highest percentage of callus formation was achieved in the medium containing 2.5 mg/l of 2,4-D, while the fastest callus initiation was noticed in MS medium supplemented with 5 mg/l 2,4-D, and maximum proliferation and the morphogenic response of callus were obtained in 3rd subculture. Two types of callus observed on the induction medium were dry nodular friable and smooth compact. This highly morphogenic callus was white to white creamy in color and easy to separate.   The highest shoot proliferation rate was found on the medium containing 2 mg/l Kinetin + 1 mg/l IAA and no growth was noticed on the medium containing Kinetin alone. Therefore, the study suggests that the growth hormone of cytokinin in combination with auxin is necessary for in vitro regeneration of sugarcane callus culture.

Regeneration ability of five Nicotiana varieties viz., Virginia, Jati, Motihari, CC Bengal and Sumatra were investigated via callus induction using leaf discs. Explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with different concentrations and combinations of plant growth regulators. Callus formation frequency was 67.20%. Among the varieties used, Motihari induced the highest percentage (97.50%) of callus followed by Jati (92.50%) in 2.0 rng/L Kinetin and 2.0 mg/L IAA. Shoots were induced from calli cultured on the same medium. Maximum shoot formation from leaf discs was 82.50% on medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L Kinetin and 2.0 mg/L IAA. It was also revealed from this study that Motihari was the best variety for callus formation and subsequent plantlet regeneration which is a pre-requisite for vector mediated transformation for varietal improvement of Nicotiana species. The rooting response of regenerated shoots was observed by using ½ MS medium with IBA (0.0, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/L). The highest root formation was found in Motihari (90%) with ½ MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L IBA. After that regenerated plantlets with plenty of roots were transferred successfully to pots and subsequently to the field.

SummaryAggregation of cat platelets in the citrated plasma is examined by means of Born’s absorptiometer. A marked tendency of the platelets of this species to spontaneous aggregation necessitated first of all the development of an improved technique of blood collection.A hypothesis according to which 5-HT is released from the platelets, explains the absence of oscillations on the base line of the absorptiometer, the absence of platelet swelling, when ADP is added, and the effect of stirring on the aggregation curves in cat PRP. The average volume of cat platelets amounts to 10.46 μ3 when directly fixed in the blood, when fixed from PRP to 12.17 μ3, when fixed from stirred PRP to 13.51 μ3.In low concentrations (0.3-2 μM) ADP produce reversible aggregation; in narrowly restricted, individually dissimilar mean concentrations irreversible aggregation in two phases and in high concentrations, irreversible aggregation in one phase. Like ADP serotonin produces 2 phase irreversible aggregation in concentrations of 3-10 μM, but unlike ADP, the aggregation velocity decreases again with high 5-HT concentrations (>100 μM). Adrenaline does not produce aggregation and it is likely that adenosine and adenosine monophosphate inhibit the aggregation by serotonin but not by ADP. Species differences in the aggregation of human, rabbit and cat platelets are discussed.

Synthetic seeds can be an alternative for those species in which botanical seeds are not viable. One of the major problems of in vitro plant cultivation is the high level of somaclonal variation. The most common factors affecting somaclonal variation are genotype, explant source, in vitro period and cultivation conditions in which the culture is established. In this work, calli were induced using leaf and stem explants of the commercial potato cultivars Achat, Baraka, Baronesa, Bintje, and Contenda in MS culture media supplemented with 1.65 mM of picloram and 11.5 mM of 2,4-D. Seventy and 90 days after induction, DNA samples of 40 calli were compared concerning the effects of the two explant (leaf and stem) and two growth regulator sources on five potatoes cultivars. A total of 20 arbitrary sequence primers were evaluated. The RAPD pattern generated by these primers suggested a high percentage of polymorphic fragments among the five genotypes, indicating a high level of genetic variation among cultivars. Cultivar Baronesa showed the highest number of polymorphic fragments for all treatments. The cultivar Contenda showed the smallest somaclonal variation, for most of the treatments, except for the treatment which consisted of stem explants, picloram (1.65 mM) application, and a 70-day period of callus formation. 'Contenda' is, therefore, the most suitable cultivar for synthetic seed production.
