Callus induction of moss species Aloina aloides (Schultz) Kindb. was obtained on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) or with 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 1.0 mg/L kinetin (KIN) or with 0.2 mg/L indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and 2.0 mg/L 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) or with 7.5 g/L of sucrose or with 15 g/L of sucrose or hormone - free and sugar free MS basal medium. The callus can be maintained for a long period of time without bud formation subcultured on the above media, at 16 h day/8 h night, 25 ? 2?C, 60-70% air humidity and irradiance of 50 ?mol m-2s-1. To obtain plant regeneration pieces, calli were transferred onto MS media supplemented with different concentrations of auxins and cytokinins (1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 2 mg/L KIN; 0.2 mg/L IBA and 2 mg/L KIN; or 0.2 mg/L IAA and 2 mg/L BAP). In these media after subculturing, callus enlarges and turns to gametophytes with buds. Except for a smaller size, the plants obtained on the callus did not differ morphoanatomically from the shoots in the nature.

Immature embryos of seven accessions of Triticum tauschii (Coss.) Schmal. were used to produce embryogenic callus suitable for initiation of suspension cultures. Several modifications of Murashige and Skoog basal medium (MS) were evaluated for callus induction from scutellar tissues of embryos. Nodular, embryogenic calli were induced from all accessions when MS medium was supplemented with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and a mixture of L-glutamine, L-asparagine and L-proline. Early differentiation of these embryogenic calli was overcome by substituting Dicamba for 2,4-D. Addition of 575 mg L-1 of L-proline gave a rapid increase in the production of nodular embryogenic callus in most of the accessions. Using this protocol, the embryogenic capacity of this type of callus was maintained for more than a year following further modification of the MS medium. A clear genotype dependency as well as media effects on the production of callus were observed.

High yields of protoplasts were obtained from immature leaves of aseptically grown plants of Arachis hypogaea using an enzyme solution containing cellulase 2.0% (w/v) and Macerozyme 1.0% (w/v) in 0.6 M mannitol. Isolated protoplasts were cultured in Kao's medium supplemented with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). The protoplasts started to divide after 3–5 days of culture. Sustained divisions resulted in mass production of cell colonies and mini calli in 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, protoplast colonies were transferred to the Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with a-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and BAP. Colonies proliferated into actively growing calli. Further attempts to regenerate plants from such calli were not successful. However, protoclones differentiated roots on the same medium. Alternative methods for plant regeneration from protoplast derived callus cultures were tried through somatic embryogenesis. Protoplast-derived calli treated with 2,4-D and BAP formed somatic embryos. Somatic embryogenesis began in the proembryo stage and proceeded from globular to dicotyledonary stage. Embryos were then transferred onto hormone-free MS medium for germination. Five to ten percent of these embryoids germinated and grew to plantlets. Regenerated plants were transferred to plastic cups and grown to maturity.

Barringtonia racemosa is mangroves type of plant which had been extensively utilized in conventional practices for relieving ailments of pain and inflammation. Many studies have been done on ethnobotanical profiles, pharmacological activities and chemical compounds in Barringtonia racemosa. However, there is a limited study on callogenesis of this plant particularly from different maturity stage of fruits. The present study is to identify the callogenesis of Barringtonia racemosa from endosperm explants of immature and mature fruits in MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of hormones 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/L) and Kinetin (KIN) (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/L). The optimum hormone combination was found in callus grown on endosperm of immature fruits in MS medium supplemented with 1.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 1.0 mg/L KIN. It was also found that the callus in this treatment grew profusely with highest fresh weight (0.513 ± 0.022 g), 100% callus induction and friable callus texture. The callus fresh weight on endosperm explants was higher in immature fruits compared to mature fruits for all the hormone combinations. Therefore, callogenesis were found more efficient from endosperm explant of immature fruits in Barringtonia racemosa species.

This study aims to determine the concentration of growth regulators BAP and   2,4-D which have the highest effect in stimulating the formation of callus melon plants (Cucumis melo) Mai 119 variety. Completely randomized design (CRD) was used in this research. Media used on callus induction was MS medium with addition of several concentration of BAP  (0 mg/L, 1 mg/L, 2 mg/L, 3 mg/L) and 2,4-D (0 mg/L, 1 mg/L, 2 mg/L, 3 mg/L) either alone or in a combination of both. Parameters measured were the time appearing of callus, callus diameter, callus texture, and callus color. Anova followed by Tukey's test was used to the analyse of time appearing of callus. Data of callus diameter was analyzed using Kruskal Wallis test followed by Mann-Whitney test. In the analysis of parameter related to the callus texture and callus color, descriptive test were used. The results showed that there were differences in the effect of growth regulators on the callus formation. The fastest callus induction and the largest diameter of callus were obtained on media with concentration of 2 mg/L BAP and 3 mg/L BAP.Keywords: BAP (benzyl amino purine), 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid), callus induction, melon (Cucumis melo) varieties Mai 119

Callus induction, maintenance and protoplast cultures were achieved from immature seeds of a woody leguminous mangrove, Caesalpinia crista. Axenic cultures were possible during 1.5 months of pod storage in 0.1% benzalkonium chloride solution. Callus induction was achieved using 1 mL liquid medium in a 10 mL flat-bottomed culture tube. Protoplasts were isolated using Cellulase R10, Hemicellulase, and Driselase 20 in 0.6 M mannitol solution and sub-culturable calluses were obtained in 50 μL liquid medium using a 96-microplate method. The optimal hormonal concentration was 10 μM each of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and benzyladenine in liquid Murashige and Skoog's basal medium for both callus induction and maintenance, and protoplast cultures. Similarities and differences in amino acid profiles and culture conditions are discussed among woody mangrove species and non-mangrove leguminous species. Caesalpinia crista cultures were unique as they secreted a large amount of amino acids, including proline, into the liquid culture medium.

The optimum ratios of auxin and cytokinin are necessary for callus induction and plant regeneration. This ratio is a key function involving in the promoting cell division and proliferation in tissue culture. The axillary buds of in vitro plantlets fromVetiveria nemoralisA. Camuscv. Roiet were used as explants for the callus induction experiment. These explants were cultured on Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium [1] supplemented with various combinations of auxins and cytokinins. Under this experimental study, the highest frequency of callus induction was found on MS medium supplemented with 2 mgL-1α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and 1 mgL-12-furanylmethyl-1H-purine-6-amine (kinetin) (62.5%). On the other hand the combination of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) was toxicity to this explants. All culturing explants were dead and no calli appearance. The calli derived from each medium were transferred into the same regeneration medium (MS with 1 mgL-1NAA and 2 mgL-1BAP). After culturing on regeneration medium, calli induced from the highest callus induction medium have shown high frequencies of regeneration and also shoot number per callus (58.33% and 7.1 shoots).

An in vitro protocol for Callerya speciosa (Champ.) Schot regeneration through embryogenesis was developed using the anthers as the explants. The late uninucleate stage of the microspore was optimal for the anther culture of C. speciosa. Embryonic callus was induced on a MS basal medium supplemented with 4.4 µM 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) and 9.04 µM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). Embryos were obtained on MS medium supplemented with 2.2 µM BA and 0.5 µM naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). The highest percentage (16.7%) of embryos was achieved using the culture medium MS + 0.25 µM NAA + 1.1 µM BA. The highest percentage of embryos that developed into plants was 18.3%. However, haploid plants were not observed, which may have been due to the collection of the calli from the anther wall. The results presented here demonstrate the establishment of a highly efficient and rapid system for regenerating C. speciosa using anther cultures.

AbstractA protocol is described for plant regeneration from protoplasts of Gentiana straminea Maxim. via somatic embryogenesis. Protoplasts were isolated from embryogenic calli in an enzyme solution composed of 2% Cellulase Onozuka R-10, 0.5% Macerozyme R-10, 0.5% Hemicellulase, and 0.5 M sorbitol with a yield of 3.0 × 106 protoplasts per gram of fresh weight. Liquid, solid-liquid double layer (sLD) and agar-pool (aPL) culture systems were used for protoplast culture. The aPL culture was the only method that produced embryogenic, regenerative calli. With aPL culture, the highest frequencies of protoplast cell division and colony formation were 39.6% and 16.9%, respectively, on MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 0.5 mg/L N6-benzylaminopurine (BA). Microcalli were transferred to solid MS medium containing a reduced concentration of 2,4-D (0.5 mg/L) to promote the formation of embryogenic calli. Somatic embryos developed into plantlets on MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/L BA at a rate of 43.7%.

Callus was initiated from 15-day-old embryos of 'Carman' triticale (×Triticosecale Wittmack) cultured on 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid supplemented Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium. For plant regeneration, the calli were subcultured every 4 weeks on MS media with no added hormones. The original euploid (2n = 42) regenerated plants and their progeny were examined for several traits. Considerable variation for all measured traits was observed among the regenerated plants. Variability was greatest for spike length, fertility, and plant height. Two second-generation plants were found to have a significant increase in percent kernel protein relative to 'Carman' controls. Electrophoretic studies showed that all regenerated plants of both generations had the same prolamin banding pattern as 'Carman' triticale but variation existed in the intensity of the bands. This was especially true for the bands encoded for by the rye genome. One genotype, viz. R13, exhibited extreme chromosomal instability resulting in the occurrence of both rye and wheat univalents as observed at metaphase I.Key words: somaclonal variation, triticale, tissue culture, plant regeneration.
