Different concentrations of 6-benzyladenine (6-BA) were used in vitro to induce buds in three types of explants: leaf discs, root segments and the seedling itself obtained from in vitro seed germination of Passiflora cincinnata Mast. The 0.5 mg.L -1 6-BA concentration was most suitable for all the three explants, however, bud formation time and means (direct/indirect) were different for each type of explant. In seedlings used as explants, it had shoot regeneration from the primary root. Histological events leading to bud formation via meristemoids were described. The origin was indirect in leaf discs, with callus formation in subepidermal cells of the chlorophyll parenchyma layers. In root segments and in seedling roots, the buds were formed directly in the pericycle (in roots with some secondary structure) and in the vascular cambium (at the initial phase of secondary structure). Also, indirect buds originated from meristemoids which were formed around the callus.

ABSTRACT Myracrodruon urundeuva Fr. All. is a tree threatened with extinction, which has wood and medicinal potential. This study aimed to analyze the in vitro shoot regeneration in M. urundeuva, in order to increase the species multiplication. Two experiments were conducted: 1) concentrations of 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) (0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 8.0 and 16.0 µM), in association with naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) (0.0, 1.5 and 3.0 µM), in explants (cotyledon, hypocotyl and cotyledonary node); 2) concentrations of meta-topolin (mT) (0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 8.0, 16.0 and 32.0 µM) in explants (biaxillary, medial uniaxillary and apical basal nodal segment). The percentage of explants responsive to shoot regeneration, percentage of callus explants, number of shoots and shoot length were evaluated. In the first experiment, the shoot regeneration occurred only in explants of the cotyledonary node and hypocotyl type, with the highest responsiveness percentage (76.67 %) and number of shoots (1.97 and 1.63) obtained for the cotyledonary node in the presence of 3.0 µM of NAA in association with 2.0 (1.97 shoots/explant) and 4.0 µM (1.63 shoots/explant) of mT. In the second experiment, the resolution of the obtained quadratic equation indicates that the use of basal explant with 24.59 µM of mT added to the culture medium leads to the highest number of shoots (1.86). However, despite the mT having increased the mean number of shoots, all treatments containing this cytokinin showed callus formation. As a conclusion, it is possible to regenerate shoots in M. urundeuva from the cotyledonary node using BAP in association with NAA.

Surface sterilized stem nodal sections of western soapberry (Sapindus drummondii Hook. & Arn.) were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium. The basal media consisted of one half and full strength MS medium each supplemented with the following (mg-1): Nicotinic acid 0.5, pyridoxine Hcl 0.5, Glycine 2.0, myo-inositol 100, sucrose 30,000 and agar 8000. Each medium also was supplemented with either 0, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 10 mg/l Thidiazuron (TZD) or 0, 0.5, 2.0 and 5 mg/l 6-Benzyladenine (BA). The pH of all media was adjusted to 5.8 ± 0.1. The culture media were autoclaved at 120°C at 1.5 Kgcm-1 pressure for 15 min. The highest percentage of nodal sections resulting in shoot regeneration occurred on 1/2 MS with TZD at 0.01 mg/l and MS medium containing 0.5 mg/l of BA Increasing the TZD concentration above 0.1 mg/l resulted in callus formation on cut surfaces.

The aim of this work was to evaluate the organogenesis of Marubakaido apple rootstock under different aluminium concentratons. The explants were calli derived from apple internodes treated with either 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid or pichloram at 0.5 and 1.0 μM and under five different aluminium concentrations (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 mg/L). These calli were then treated with aluminium at 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 mg/L. It was observed shoot regeneration only for those calli previously treated with pichloram. There were no significant difference among the aluminium concentrations.

Hibiscus syriacus is a difficult species in micropropagation due to its endogenous contamination and recalcitrant shoot formation; therefore, studies on using explants other than shoot tip or axillary buds of growing shrubs were initiated. Three different seedling fragments (root, hypocotyl, and leaf petiole) from aseptically germinated seedlings of hibiscus (var. Aphrodite) were evaluated for adventitious bud formation, shoot and leaf development. The explants were cultured on McCown's woody plant basal salt medium supplemented with KNO3 (800 mg/L), adenine sulfate (80 mg/L) and MS vitamins containing BA or 2iP or TDZ at 0.5, 1.0, 2.2, 4.4 and 10 mM. Adventitious buds were present on all of the three different explants grown on medium containing TDZ; however, the most abundant bud formation, with many small leaves originating from callus was observed on hypocotyl explants cultured on medium with 1 mM of TDZ. Petiole explants were the most frequent to develop short shoots (≈15 mm) and one to nine leaves without callus formation, where 70% of hypocotyl and the root explants formed leaves originating from callus. Callus was induced on all explant types regardless of the level or type of cytokinin used. However, the number of shoots produced by any explant type was low, petioles cultured on 0.5 and 1mM of TDZ were the most suitable material for non-callus shoot development in H. syriacus. Hypocotyl explants proved to be an excellent source for adventitious bud formation but their ability to develop shoots needs to be investigated.

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)

A shoot regeneration system for Plectranthus neochilus was studied from leaf explants. Leaves developed under in vitro conditions were cultured on Wood Plant Medium supplemented with 0.2mg dm-3 α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and different 6-benzilaminopurine (BAP) or thidiazuron (TDZ) concentrations (0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0mg dm-3). An increase in percentage of responsive explants (85.3%) and in the number of shoots developed per explant (3.2) was observed when the explants were treated with 5.3 and 4.7mg dm-3 BAP, respectively. The leaf explants cultured on media supplemented with TDZ became vitreous and did not form buds. The regeneration system used is efficient for boldo bud induction and shoot development, showing high potential for advanced cellular and molecular studies.
