Two concentrations of two in vitro media formulations were evaluated for their effects on survival, shoot growth, and percentage rooting of cascade huckleberry (Vaccinium deliciosum), mountain huckleberry (V. membranaceum), and oval-leaf bilberry (V. ovalifolium). Two-node stem sections from established microshoots were cultured on full- or half-strength modified Murashige and Skoog medium (FSMS and HSMS) or full- or half-strength modified woody plant medium (FSWPM and HSWPM) unamended with plant growth regulators. Cultures were maintained at 21 °C with a 16-hour photoperiod for 98 days. Survival on FSMS was reduced by ≈44% for cascade huckleberry, 63% for mountain huckleberry, and 18% for oval-leaf bilberry compared with average survival on HSMS, HSWPM, and FSWPM. Explants on FSMS also produced new shoot growth having the lowest dry weights, fewest shoots, and shortest shoots of the four media. Explant rooting percentages were also least on FSMS. For cascade huckleberry and oval-leaf bilberry, HSMS, HSWPM, and FSWPM all appeared suitable for general culture. For mountain huckleberry, both woody plant medium formulations produced greater microshoot dry weights, average shoot lengths, and explant rooting percentages compared with HSMS. These results are the first published on micropropagation for cascade huckleberry and oval-leaf bilberry, and provide starting protocols for commercial propagation and further research on micropropagation of these species.

Axillary buds from a single Cladrastis kentukea tree were initially cultured on two media, woody plant medium (WPM) and Murashige and Skoog (MS) containing 0, 1, 2, or 4 μm 6–benzylaminopurine (BA). Cultures were transferred to fresh media every 4 weeks. Elongated shoots were harvested after 39 weeks and transferred to half-strength MS medium supplemented with the following concentrations of IBA: 0, 3, 30, 100, and 300 μm for 3 d, then returned to half-strength MS without growth regulators. Explants exposed to 300 μm of IBA produced significantly more roots (75%) compared to explants exposed to other treatments. Fifty-four and 45% of the microshoots rooted when exposed to 100 and 30 μm IBA, respectively. Only 4% of the microshoots rooted when exposed to 3 μm IBA and none of the control microshoots rooted. Although the 300 μm treatment yielded the most rooted plantlets, there was significantly higher terminal meristem abortion compared to other treatments. There were no statistical differences between the numbers of roots and total root length among all treatments. Additionally, all microshoots that rooted had lenticels, suggesting that presence of lenticel cambial activity can possibly improve rooting abilities of selected microshoots. Rooted microshoots were gradually acclimatized to nonsterile environment.

Leaf discs from 15 mutant clones of tomato were tested for their morphogenetic response in Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 12 combinations of the growth regulators napthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and benzylaminopurine (BA) and 4 combinations of NAA and zeatin. The results show that either callus, shoots, roots, or shoots and roots can be produced depending upon the hormone concentrations and ratios. Plants were regenerated from 12 of the 15 varieties tested.

Forcing Solution

Vanhoutte's spiraea has been propagated in vitro using explants from softwood growth of dormant stems forced in a solution containing 200 mg/l 8-hydroxyquinoline citrate (8-HQC) and 2% sucrose (Yang and Read, 1989). Objectives to further utilize this system were to determine the feasibility of applying plant growth regulators (PGR) via the forcing solution to softwood growth from forced dormant stems and to study the resulting influence on in vitro culture. BA and GA3 were placed in the forcing solution at various concentrations, including a zero PGR control. Explants were cultured on Linsmaier and Skoog (LS) medium containing zero PGR or different amounts of BA or thidiazuron (TDZ) or combinations of BA and IAA. Control explants placed on LS medium supplemented with 5uM BA with or without 1 or 5uM IAA, or with 0.5 or 0.75 uM TDZ alone produced the best shoot proliferation. BA in the forcing solution stimulated micropropagation, while GA3 caused less proliferation than explants from control solutions. Forcing solutions containing PGR are useful for manipulating responses of plant tissues cultured in vitro and for studying PGR influence on woody plant physiology.

In vitro: regeneration of Chenopodium quinoa Willd. was achieved from cotyledonary nodes explants. In this study, used 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP) and α-Naphthalene Acetic Acid (NAA) of plant growth regulators with different concentrations individually as well as in combination and used different concentrations of sugar (sucrose) with different concentrations. For was rooting, used half strength (½MS), full-strength MS and ½ MS supplemented with 0.2 mg/l of NAA. The results mentioned, explant responding (%) to multiplication was about 73% for all BAP treatments compared with control and average numbers of shoot increased with increased BAP concentration except 5 mg/l of BAP. The highest explant responding (%) was in media supplemented BAP without NAA compared other treatments noted that the media with combination of BAP and NAA gives formation of callus in bases of the plantlets. Also, the result inducted the combinations between (BAP–NAA) was highly significantly (P≤ 0.001) and less effective on number of shoots where the highest number of shoot was 3.40 in media with 3 mg/l BAP compared other treatments. The highest of explant responding 93.33% was in media supplement with 10 g/l sucrose and (10 g/l sucrose + 3 mg/l BAP), but sucrose level for good greening and developed shoots (4 shoots) was in medium supplement with 10 g/l sucrose. The shoots rooted well on half-strength MS medium with 60% percentage of root. The rooted shoots were acclimatized and transferred to green house to follow their development.

Nonstratified seeds of different genotypes of Fraxinusamericana L. (white ash), Fraxinuspennsylvanica Marsh, (green ash), and Fraxinusangustifolia Vahl. ssp. oxycarpa (narrowleaf ash, of Afghanistan origin) were surface disinfested, cut, and germinated in vitro on agar-solidified MS (Murashige and Skoog) medium containing sucrose and various plant growth regulators. Before placing in vitro, approximately one-third of the seed opposite the radicular end was excised and discarded, or the apical and basal 1 mm tips of the seed were aseptically excised. Within 1 week, viable seeds germinated. Cotyledons emerged, elongated, expanded, and turned green. After 2 weeks hypocotyls and radicles elongated. White and green ash genotypes germinated at different rates; generally >80% of seeds placed in vitro germinated. Genotype and the presence of thidiazuron in the medium had an effect on seedling development (hypocotyl and epicotyl elongation). Immature as well as nonstratified mature seeds germinated and grew. Epicotyls were excised, rooted, and established in the greenhouse.

A system of micropropagation has been developed for Epacris impressa Labill. (pink heath) (Epacridaceae), the floral emblem of Victoria, Australia. Only explants from glasshouse-grown plants treated with 1.2 g L–1 mancozeb were established successfully in vitro. Shoot material was very sensitive to surface-sterilisation, with 0.5% NaOCl for 5 min being optimal. Multiple shooting was induced optimally on Woody Plant Medium (WPM, Lloyd and McCown 1980) with 12–25 µM of the cytokinin 2iP (6-(γ,γ-dimethylallylamino) purine). Inclusion of the auxin IBA (indole-3-butyric acid) induced callus and reduced shooting. Rooting in vitro was greatest (up to 40%) with half-strength WPM and 16 µM IBA. Clones from individual plants varied in multiple shooting response to 2iP (0–49 µM) and root induction response to auxins (IBA and NAA (α-naphthaleneacetic acid), 0–43 µM). These results suggest that explant materials are the main determinant of success in in vitro propagation and that they require individual optimisation of treatments to maximise shoot and root formation.

A study was made of the influence of light, temp., growth regulators, and sugar and macrosalt concn. on the growth and morphogenesis of leaf and axis explants of young Shorea curtisii, S. obtusa and Dipterocarpus grandiflorus. Terminal and axillary buds grew best on half strength Murashige and Skoog medium. Leaf explants formed more callus on full strength medium, when containing part of the midrib and when taken from the lower half of the leaf. More than 95% of D. grandiflorus explants were infected by a fungus apparently present in the parent plant. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)

Kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes), with its edible stem tuber formed at the base of the plant stem, presents a valuable source of nutrients. The potential effects of plant growth regulators (PGRs), as well as various concentrations of different sugars on the in vitro development of kohlrabi were studied. Ten-day-old kohlrabi seedlings were cultivated in vitro for 5 weeks at 18?2?C on half-strength MS media containing different concentrations of carbon source such as sucrose, fructose, glucose, xylose and mannitol, combined with or without specific plant growth regulators (N6-benzyladenine (BA), gibberellic acid (GA3), 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA)). Results showed no tuber formation in all treatments, but growth and development of treated kohlrabi seedlings was significantly affected in a distinctive manner, with a variety of morphological traits being altered in comparison to matching controls.
