Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) has become the largest traded vegetable oil in the world due to its innumerable uses and its huge economic importance. Which increases the requirement of quality seedling but the conventional seed production limits the commercial seed production with its long germination period and low germination rate. In this context in vitro germination of zygotic embryo could be a promising alternative. Hence in this study the effect of culturing media, plant growth regulators and genotypes were assessed on in vitro regeneration and plantlet development of oil palm zygotic embryos. Zygotic embryos of four elite genotypes were cultured on MS, N6 and Y3 media, with or without plant growth regulators (NAA, BA and GA3-0.2mg/lt). There was no effect of culture media, plant growth regulators and genotypes on germination of zygotic embryos. Whereas on the growth and development of in vitro plantlets, there was a significant effect of culture media and genotypes. Where culture media N6 performs well and Y3 has shown more abnormality. In case of genotypes, genotypes G1 and G2 shown better performance when compared to genotypes G3 and G4. The effect of plant growth regulators on germination and plant growth was non significant.

Oil palm has a high economic value since it is one of the highest vegetable oil-producing plants compared to other oil-producing plants. The provision of good planting material for oil palm plantations is one of the determining factors to increase productivity. The parent Pisifera type of oil palm is important to develop the high-yielding oil palm Tenera varieties. The provision of oil palm material could be done through generative system with seeds and also could be done through vegetative approaches using tissue culture techniques. It aims to get plants that are genetically the same as their parents (true to type). The purpose of this study was to see the effect of different type of tissue culture media and plant growth regulators (PGR’s) on the callus induction stage of Pisifera type oil palm. The results show that the treatment using Murasige and Skoog (MS) culture media is able to give a better effect when compared to the use of Eeuwens and Blake (Y3) basic media. While the use of PGR treatment (H6 = NAA 6 mg/l + 2.4-D 0.5 mg/l) showed a callus growth percentage of 76%, which was better than (H1 = Kin 0.1 mg/l + 2.4-D 100 mg/l) by 42%.

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%

This research was conducted to study the effect of some plant growth regulators on in vitro shoots multiplication of stevia (Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni). The experiments included tests of various combinations of KIN with IBA or IAA in the shoot multiplication. Results indicated that KIN at 1.0 mg. L-1 plus 0.3 mg. L-1 of IBA produced the highest number of shoots (3.5 shoots) while KIN at 1.5 mg. L-1 plus IBA at 1.0 mg. L-1 produced the lowest shoot length (1.14 cm).  Hormone free medium produced the highest rate of the leaves number reached 28.56 leaves. KIN and IBA interaction increased fresh and dry weight significantly.   Treatment contained 2.0 mg -1 KIN plus 0.3 mg. L-1 IBA produced the highest fresh weight (1.739 g) while 0.5 mg. L-1 KIN and 0.3 mg. L-1 IBA produced the highest dry weight (0.822 g). As for the effect of interaction between the IAA and KIN it was significant in the number of shoots formed. Interaction between 1.0 mg. L-1 KIN with 0.1 mg. L-1IAA produced the highest number of shoots (3.8 shoots). Shoots length reached 8.10 cm in the media with 0.3 mg. L-1 IAA only. The highest fresh weight (1.267 g) was achieved with the interaction between 1.0 mg. L-1 KIN and 0.3 mg. L-1 IAA while 0.5 mg. L-1IAA without KIN produced the highest dry weight reached 0.138 g.  Shoots multiplication was improved by incorporation of the cytokinin TDZ in culture media. Shoots number, fresh and dry weights were increased significantly by adding 0.05 mg. L-1 of TDZ at present of 0.3 mg. L-1 of IBA giving 6.6 shoots, 0.974 g and 0.144 g respectively while shoots length decreased significantly as media without TDZ produced the highest shoots length reached 9.32 cm. The above results can adopt for the successful in vitro shoot multiplication of Stevia plants.

Jatropha (Jatropha curcas L.) is an oil bearing crop growing in tropical and subtropical parts of the world. The present study was undertaken to investigate the effects of different plant growth regulators on in vitro callus induction in physic nut (J. curcus). In the present study, it was observed that all the explants viz., leaf lamina, petioles, nodal segments and cotyledonary nodes showed good callus induction responses on various culture media thus tried. Leaf lamina and petioles showed 100.0% callus induction responses on different MS media supplemented with auxins and cytokinins alone or in combinations whereas, nodal segments and cotyledonary nodes showed maximum 89.6% and 83.9% callus induction respectively. The presence of 2, 4-D in culture media with auxins or cytokinins was essential for good callus growth. Among different explants tried, leaf lamina was the best responding explants and MS-13 media supplemented with 5×10-6 M NAA and 10-5 M 2, 4-D is the best callusing and growth supporting medium. However, the regenerative competence of the callus tissues can differ depending on the type of explants used because certain types of plant tissues have more favorable regeneration responses than others. Callus induction rate from all explant types was highest than other reports. The results obtained in the present study would facilitate the high callus induction and regeneration responses in J. curcus for its improvement using biotechnological tools.

The in vitro organogenesis of embryos of type-variety (‘Albescens’, ‘Nigrescens’, ‘Virescens’ and ‘Idolatrica’) of the oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) with growth regulators was studied. Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium, supplemented with nine treatment concentrations of Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP), alone and in combinations, was used to initiate embryo cultures of the type-variety. Data were collected on time of root production, root length, plant height, number of leaves and number of roots.  The results obtained indicated that there were swelling and expansion of the matured zygotic explants in cultures within 7 and 14 days after culture initiation (DCI). Time of root production did not vary significantly among type-variety, but differed significantly (p < 0.001) due to growth regulators, whereas their interaction effect was non-significant. Root length and plantlet height significantly varied (p < 0.05) due to type-variety and growth regulators, as well as their interaction. There were no significant variations among type-variety on number of leaves and roots produced at 84 DCI, but there was significant (p < 0.05) variations on number of leaves and non-significant variance on number of roots due to growth regulators. The type-variety combined with growth regulators effects on number of leaves and roots were not significant.  In the present study, the responses of the various type-variety in the regeneration of plantlets in vitro varied with respect to media supplementation and that low concentration of NAA and BAP, alone and in different combinations, favoured root, leaf and plantlet production in MS medium.

<p><em>Beclardia macrostahya</em> is one of the rarest orchids in Mauritius. <em>In vitro</em> techniques are being used for mass propagating this orchid for subsequent restoration programs. Successful asymbiotic germination <em>of</em> <em>Beclardia macrostachya </em>was obtained through embryo rescue. Modified half MS media supplemented with 10% coconut milk was used as basal culture media and the effect of plant growth regulators at different concentrations on embryo development was assessed through qualitative and quantitative parameters. Diameter of embryos, length of protocorm-like bodies (PLBs) and length of developing shoots were calculated using digital photography. Maximal growth was obtained in treatments without any plant growth regulators and 0.5mg/l N<sup>6</sup> Benzyl Amino Purine (BAP). Higher levels of Thiadurazon/TDZ (0.3mg/l) and BAP (1.0 mg/l) though they stimulated embryo development faster, yielded higher level of necrosis later. The results also suggest that plant growth regulator treatments that stimulate fastest embryo development from immature embryos/ovules need not be reliable for further development to PLB and plantlet regeneration.</p>
