Laelia anceps subsp. anceps es una especie de la familia Orchidaceae que presenta altas tasas de extracción y comercio ilegal en diversos estados de la República Mexicana, además requiere de condiciones nutricionales específicas debido a sus características de desarrollo y distribución. Por lo cual, el objetivo de la presente investigación fue establecer un protocolo de micropropagación in vitro comparando el efecto de la citocinina 6-bencilaminopurina (BAP) y el nitrato de potasio (KNO3). Para ello, se cultivaron semillas estériles en medio MS sin reguladores de crecimiento vegetal. Posterior a la germinación, se indujo en las vitroplantas la formación de brotes y raíces en medio MS, suplementado con 0, 2.5, 5.0 y 10 mg L-1 de BAP o 0, 2.5, 5.0 y 10 mg L-1 de KNO3. Los resultados mostraron que la adición de BAP mejoró el proceso de propagación en todos los tratamientos analizados, en tanto que, la adición de 10 mg L-1 de KNO3 indujo los mejores resultados al producir 11.4 ± 0.6 raíces las cuales desarrollaron velamen, una estructura radicular que favorece la absorción de agua. Estos resultados sugieren que a mayor concentración de KNO3 podrían mejorar los resultados de propagación en esta orquídea.ABSTRACTLaelia anceps subsp. anceps is a species of the Orchidaceae family that presents high rates of illegal extraction and trade in several states of the Mexican Republic, and also requires specific nutritional conditions due to its development and distribution characteristics. Therefore, the aim of the present investigation was to establish an in vitro micropropagation protocol comparing the effect of the cytokinin 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and potassium nitrate (KNO3). For this, sterile seeds were grown in MS medium without plant growth regulators. After germination, formation of shoots and roots in MS medium was induced in vitroplants supplemented with 0, 2.5, 5.0 and 10 mg L-1 of BAP or 0, 2.5, 5.0 and 10 mg L-1 of KNO3. The results showed that the addition of BAP improved the propagation process in all the treatments analyzed, while the addition of 10 mg L-1 of KNO3 induced the best results by producing 11.4 ± 0.6 roots with the developed of sail, a structure root that favors the water absorption. These results suggest that higher concentration of KNO3 could improve the propagation results in this orchid.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) var. Bentong is a monocotyledon plant that belongs to the Zingiberaceae family. Bentong ginger is the most popular cultivar of ginger in Malaysia, which is conventionally propagated by its rhizome. As its rhizomes are the economic part of the plant, the allocation of a large amount of rhizomes as planting materials increases agricultural input cost. Simultaneously, the rhizomes’ availability as planting materials is restricted due to the high demand for fresh rhizomes in the market. Moreover, ginger propagation using its rhizome is accompanied by several types of soil-borne diseases. Plant tissue culture techniques have been applied to produce disease-free planting materials of ginger to overcome these problems. Hence, the in vitro-induced microrhizomes are considered as alternative disease-free planting materials for ginger cultivation. On the other hand, Bentong ginger has not been studied for its microrhizome induction. Therefore, this study was conducted to optimize sucrose and plant growth regulators (PGRs) for its microrhizome induction. Microrhizomes were successfully induced in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with a high sucrose concentration (>45 g L−1). In addition, zeatin at 5–10 µM was found more effective for microrhizome induction than 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) at a similar concentration. The addition of 7.5 µM 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) further enhanced microrhizome formation and reduced sucrose’s required dose that needs to be supplied for efficient microrhizome formation. MS medium supplemented with 60 g L−1 sucrose, 10 µM zeatin and 7.5 µM NAA was the optimum combination for the microrhizome induction of Bentong ginger. The in vitro-induced microrhizomes sprouted indoors in moist sand and all the sprouted microrhizomes were successfully established in field conditions. In conclusion, in vitro microrhizomes can be used as disease-free planting materials for the commercial cultivation of Bentong ginger.

Marumi kumquat (Fortunella Japonica) is culture for its valuable nutritional value and medicinal importance in many regions of the world. The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of two types of media enriched with different concentrations of fructose and different plant growth regulators and different fructose concentration on in vitro propagation of Fortunella Japonica. The findings showed that the most effective treatment for explant surface sterilization was by using 0.1% HgCl2 for ten minutes which give best results for production contamination-free explants at the initiation cultures. At multiplication stage, WPM medium gave better results at all tested BA levels as compared with MS medium. No significant differences were showed by using BA alone or in combination with GA3 in the measured parameters. It has been observed that WPM medium supplemented with 0.5mgl-1 BA with the presence of 30mgl-1 fructose was able to give the highest shoot length (1.56cm) with maximum shoots number/explant 9.0 and highest leaves number/explant (21.0). The proliferated shoots were exposed to full strength MS medium salts supplemented with 2mgl-1 NAA which showed the highest ratio of rooting. In vitro rooted plantlets were gradually acclimatized and transferred to open air conditions, which recorded a high survive rate reached to 92%

Conditions for in vitro multiplication and flowering of Drosera spatulata plants were established. Shoot tips of greenhouse-grown plants were sterilized with 1% or 0.5% sodium hypochlorite. The influence of different media concentrations, hormone supplementation, and pH was investigated. Full MS medium without growth regulators was the best for regeneration and multiplication of plants. Regenerated shoots rooted spontaneously on medium without growth regulators and without transfer to additional medium. In 3 months, 100 to 200 plants were generated per explant. Flowering was induced on media supplemented with plant growth regulators. Plants were acclimatized on sterile peat.

Both greenhouse-grown white ash plants derived from tissue culture and rooted microshoots in high humidity trays were inoculated with 11 tumor-inducing Agrobacterium strains. Eight strains stimulated mutative gall formation. Plants inoculated with strain A281 exhibited a higher frequency of callus formation (greenhouse-22.2%; microshoots-18.8%) than other strains at the site of the wound. Therefore, strain A281 was used to inoculate seed and seedling explants in vitro. Explants were placed on MS medium containiner no plant growth regulators and inoculated at 0, 3, 5, 7, or 10 days after initiation. Plants inoculated at 10 days showed a higher frequency of callus formation (16.4%) than with earlier inoculations. Also, rewounding of the explant at inoculation resulted in a higher frequency of callus formation (11.3%) compared to not rewounding the explant (3.9%).

ABSTRACT: The aim of the study was to develop optimum composition of plant growth regulators in media for the propagation and rooting of shoots of stevia (Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni) in in vitro cultures. Single-node shoot fragments obtained from plants propagated on MS medium were placed onto media supplemented with: BAP, 2iP and KIN at concentrations: 0.5, 1, 2 and 5 mg∙dm-3, whereas at the rooting stage with addition of: IAA, IBA and NAA at concentrations 1, 2, 4 and 8 mg∙dm-3. The highest number of shoots and leaves was reported for plants propagated on MS medium enriched with 0.5 mg∙dm-3 BAP. The greatest number of the longest roots was developed by stevia on the MS medium enriched with 1 mg∙dm-3 IAA.

This research was conducted in order to study the effect of explant type and some plant growth regulators on culture initiation of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni in vitro. The experiments included surface sterilization and test two types of explants (shoot tips and stem nodes) and the impact of KIN and BA and IAA and IBA in the cultures initiation. Results revealed the efficiency of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) for disinfestation of explant at 0.050% concentration giving less contamination for shoot tips and stem nods (10% and 20% respectively). Results showed that shoot tips inoculated in MS medium plus KIN at 0.3 mg. L-1 was significantly increase the number of regenerated shoots as it produced 4.2 shoots per explant while medium without cytokinin (control) produced less number of shoots reached 1.4 shoots per explant. KIN treatment reduced shoots length as control treatment produced the highest length (6.74 cm).  The interaction between the explant type and BA concentration was significantly increase the number of regenerated shoots as shoot tips produced 3.6 shoots per explant in MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mg. L-1. BA treatment reduced shoots length as control treatment produced the highest length (6.74 cm). No positive effect was gain when auxins (IBA and IAA) were added in combination with cytokinin in culture medium. The above results can be adopted to established stevia in vitro culture successfully.
