The aim of work was to evaluate the influence of cytokinins on dahlia propagated in vitro and their consequent effect on acclimatization. Plant material were shoot tips and nodes. From three cytokinins, benzyladenine, kinetin and 2-isopentenyl-adenine, only BA effectively stimulated shoot multiplication from axiliary buds. The highest multiplication rate was obtained from nodes in presence of 0.25–0.5 mg·dm–3 BA. Higher concentrations shortened internodes and decreased leaf blades and growth of callus. 1 mg·dm–3 of KIN and 2iP positively influenced shoots growth and size of leaves. Gibberellic acid (GA3) used with BA increased the number of axillary shoots. The best quality shoots and the highest multiplication rate were obtained when 2 mg·dm–3 BA was used with 5 mg·dm–3 GA3. Cytokinins affected rooting and acclimatization ex vitro. Dahlias shoots multiplicated in presence of 1 mg·dm–3 KIN or 2iP rooted faster in the soil and 100% survived in field, while those from 1 mg·dm–3 BA media rooted slowly, had shorter shoots and only 60% survived. Plants bloomed after 11–12 weeks in the field. Dahlia plants that had been multiplicated in presence of KIN had a bigger diameter and fresh weight in the field. BA and 2iP positively influenced flowers diameter, length of flower stalk and a number of first order shoots.

Mass propagation of Teak (Tectona grandis Linn. f.) a commercial species is a priority to increase multiplication rate and meet the growing demand for planting material. The present study has assessed the in vitro performance of Teak Tissue Cultures with different gelling agents, different light conditions, and aftercare of ex vitro rooted shoots to enhance their survival rate. Multiple shoot formation was induced from excised seedling nodal explants on MS supplemented with BA and Kn and about 5 - 10 shoots were obtained from each explant. Significant variation (p > 0.05) was observed in the number of shoots produced by the different clones. Three gelling agents (agar, phytagel and gellan gum), and two light sources (tube light and LED) were tested for enhancing shoot multiplication. No significant difference in in vitro growth was observed between clones with different solidifying agents. Teak, however, did not respond favourably to LED lights. Rooting-acclimatization phase was achieved in the nursery with 80 - 95 per cent success. The rooted plants were sprayed with DAP and Humaur to assess the growth performance following transplanting. Significant variations in rooting indicate the existence of physiological variations among the clones. Application of fertilizers promoted an initial boost followed by a steady increase during the rest of the study period. Clones with high multiplication rates under in vitro conditions could be selected for commercialization of teak multiplication. Under ex vitro conditions, a spray of fertilizers during the initial establishment phase would result in increased vigour of transplantable plants. This would ensure better survival on out planting.Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 28(1): 13-24, 2018 (June)

<em>Helleborus niger</em> L. is a rhizomatous, herbaceous perennial with overwintering, divided, basal leaves. The objective of the study was to investigate the influence of different levels of sucrose (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, and 80 g l<sup>−1</sup>) and nitrogen salts (25%, 50%, and 100% according to MS medium) as well as temperature (15°C, 20°C) on in vitro multiplication and rooting and ex vitro acclimatization of <em>H. niger</em>. The growth and multiplication of axillary shoots were performed on modified MS medium supplemented with various growth regulators (2iP, BAP and kinetin – each at a concentration of 1.0 mg l<sup>−1</sup>, GA<span><sub>3</sub></span> 2.5 mg l<sup>−1</sup>). For the induction of roots, the medium was supplemented with IBA 1 mg l<sup>−1</sup> and NAA 0.1 mg l<sup>−1</sup>. Rooted plants were transplanted in a peat–perlite substrate (4:1) in a heated greenhouse for ex vitro acclimatization. The multiplication rate of <em>H. niger</em> shoots, in vitro rooting, and ex vitro acclimatization were strongly dependent on the sucrose/nitrogen salt relationship in the medium. The highest multiplication rate of axillary shoots (3.7) was found at a temperature of 15°C or 20°C, on the medium with cytokinins and GA<span><sub>3</sub></span> supplemented with sucrose 20–30 g l<sup>−1</sup> and nitrogen salts at 50%. Sucrose at a concentration of 50 g l<sup>−1</sup> strongly stimulated the number of roots per microplant (5.8–6.0) on the media with a reduced level of nitrogen salts (25% and 50%) when the temperatures were 20°C and 15°C, respectively. The plants rooted on the media with a high sucrose/nitrogen salt ratio showed acclimatization rates which ranged from 82% to 100%. Morphological observation of plantlets revealed obvious differences in leaf shape and size and the architecture of the root system as well as differences in the developmental stages of shoots grown on media with different sucrose and nitrogen salt concentrations.

Healthy and AY-affected plants of <em>L.sinuatum</em> have been propagated in vitro for 12 months on the media with and without cytokinins. In the contrary to the healthy plants the phytoplasma affected statice showed abnormal proliferation of the axillary shoots, shortening of the internodes, smaller leaves and severe chlorosis. On the medium without cytokinins, diseased plants proliferated and formed 7.0 axillary shoots per explant but the healthy ones only formed 2.3 shoots; however, the fresh weight of them was similar. On the media with cytokinins, the multiplication rate and fresh weight of healthy shoots greatly in-creased, but of the diseased plants were on the same laevel or decreased. During tissue culture phytoplasma could be detected in symptomatic plants by PCR as well as electron microscope however, the phytoplasmas showed the symptoms of degeneration.

In an attempt to improve the micropropagation protocol for lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium Ait.), a protocol using a bioreactor system combined with a semisolid gelled medium has been developed. Cultures of cultivar Fundy and two wild clones (‘NB1’ and ‘QB1’) were established in vitro on a gelled modified cranberry basal medium (BM) containing 5 μM zeatin or 10 μM N6-[2-isopentenyl]adenine. Multiple shoots were obtained within 8 weeks by transferring zeatin-induced shoots from the gelled BM to a bioreactor containing liquid BM with 1 to 4 μM zeatin. Genotypes differed significantly with respect to multiplication rate in liquid and gelled BM containing 1 μM zeatin with ‘NB1’ producing 8.5 ± 1.1 and 2.9 ± 0.3 shoots per explant in liquid and gelled media, respectively, after one subculture followed by ‘QB1’ (7.1 ± 0.6 and 2.6 ± 0.4 shoots per explant, respectively) and ‘Fundy’ (5.8 ± 0.4 and 2.0 ± 0.2 shoots per explant, respectively). With subculture, there was an increase of shoot multiplication rate for all genotypes. Bioreactor- and gelled medium-proliferated shoots were treated with 39.4 mm indole-3-butyric acid powder, rooted in a 2 peat:1 perlite (v/v) medium, plantlets acclimatized, and eventually established in the greenhouse with 64% to 74% rooting of microshoots and 90% to 99% survival of rooted shoots. Results obtained suggested the possibility of large-scale multiplication of lowbush blueberry shoots in bioreactors.

Abstract. Hardjo PH, Susanto DPS, Savitri WD, Purwanto MGM. 2019. Shoot multiplication of Pogostemon cablin var. Sidikalang and patchouli oil profile. Nusantara Bioscience 11: 123-127. Pogostemon cablin Benth. is a plant producing patchouli oil, which mostly consists of patchouli alcohol compound. Patchouli oil has great potentials in the world market because of its stability and high price. In this study, in vitro multiplication of Sidikalang variety of Acehnese patchouli shoots was done on solid and liquid Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium. This study aimed to determine the effect of cytokinins in various combinations of shoot multiplication and to compare the patchouli oil yield of in vitro and ex vitro culture. In vitro multiplication of Acehnese patchouli shoots by using solid MS medium with addition of 0.2 ppm benzyl aminopurine (BAP) and 0.2 ppm Kinetin resulted in shoot explants with an average growth index of 82.198 ± 0.690. Patchouli oil extraction was done on 7 weeks old in vitro shoot explants cultured on solid MS medium + 0.2 ppm BAP + 0.2 ppm Kinetin using water distillation method. In vitro shoots yielded 2.5% patchouli oil and contained ± 35% patchouli alcohol compound, whereas ex vitro shoots produced 4% patchouli oil and contained ± 25% patchouli alcohol compound. The qualitative analysis by using thin layer chromatography (TLC) showed that there were similarities in the number of spot and Rf value for each spot of ex vitro and in vitro patchouli oil.

The present experimental study was aimed to overcome the traditional methods of propagation that limit the number of propagules by in-vitro regeneration through nodal explants of Dendrocalamus hamiltonii with a comparative study of growth regulators during the shooting and rooting process. Dendrocalamus hamiltonii is distributed from the Himalayas (Nepal) to the northern part of Burma. Collection of explants was done from different selected sites of CPTs. There was the use of HgCl2 and Ca (OCl)2 as sterilizing agents in different concentrations and its effect was visualized during the sprouting stage. Culm explants were cultured in a bottle containing White media (Wm) supplemented with BA and Kinetin for sprouting and IAA, IBA, NAA for rooting. There is also the use of IAA+IBA+NAA in combined form as a supplementary solution 0.1% HgCl2 treatment for 20-minute results into77.80% aseptic buds and 72% bud -break. Among the used growth-hormones, BA with concentration 0.25mg/l and 0.50mg/l respectively were appropriate for shoot-multiplication rate, 4.01±0.3 and 4.3±0.4 were ideal observation incorporation with BA (1.00mg/l) and BA (1.50mg/l) respectively. Maximum sprouting rate14.77±3.37with application of BA (2.00mg/l) and maximum shoot length4.3±0.4 is observed at BA (1.50mg/l). The applications of rooting hormone IAA+IBA+NAA in the concentration of 1.0 mg/l results in 72.5±0.3(rooting) and 11.1±0.3 (av. No. of the root).

The in vitro shoot multiplication of apple cv. Jonagold was tested on media containing benzyladenine, benzyladenine riboside or meta-topolin in different concentrations (from 0.0 to 5.0 mg l-1). The optimal concentration for the best multiplication varied according to the type of cytokinin. The highest multiplication rate (on average 6.9 and 5.9 new shoots per explant) was achieved using 5.0 mg l-1 meta-topolin or 2.0 mg l-1 benzyladenine riboside. The longest shoots were formed on media containing benzyladenine riboside at a concentration of 0.5 mg l-1. The length of newly developed shoots was strongly suppressed by high concentrations of different cytokinins, but the suppression effect of a high concentration of meta-topolin on shoot length was less than that of benzyladenine or benzyladenine riboside. In this study meta-topolin and benzyladenine riboside proved to be effective cytokinins to induce adequate shoot proliferation, while benzyladenine was the least active cytokinin

An efficient micropropagation protocol of Cyclopia genistoides (L.) Vent., an indigenous South African shrub of economic importance, was established. In vitro shoot cultures were obtained from shoot tip fragments of sterile seedlings cultured on solid Schenk and Hildebrandt (SH) medium supplemented with 9.84 μM 6-(γ,γ-dimethylallylamino)purine (2iP) and 1.0 μM thidiazuron (TDZ). Maximum shoot multiplication rate [(8.2 ± 1.3) microshoots/explant)] was observed on this medium composition. Prior to rooting, the multiplied shoots were elongated for 60 days (two 30-days passages) on SH medium with one-half sucrose concentration, supplemented with 4.92 μM indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). The rooting of explants was only possible in the case of the elongated shoots. The highest root induction rate (54.8%) was achieved on solid SH medium with one-half sucrose and one-half potassium nitrate and ammonium nitrate concentration, respectively, supplemented with 28.54 μM indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and 260.25 μM citric acid. The plantlets were acclimatized for 30 days in the glasshouse, with the use of peat/gravel/perlite substrate (1:1:1). The highest acclimatization rate (80%) was obtained for explants rooted with the use of IAA-supplemented medium. The phytochemical profile of the regenerated plants was similar to that of the reference intact plant material. HPLC analyses showed that C. genistoides plantlets obtained by the micropropagation procedure kept the ability to produce xanthones (mangiferin and isomangiferin) and the fl avanone hesperidin, characteristic of wild-growing shrubs.

This is the first published report comparing production and performance of adventitious shoots from cryopreserved cotyledons, with axillary shoots formed from epicotyls of the same zygotic embryo of radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don). Genotypes from 10 control-pollinated families of P. radiata in two treatments were compared for shoot initiation, in vitro growth, rooting, and early nursery performance. Plant growth in nursery beds was assessed by measuring height after 2 and 7 months. After 8 months in nursery beds, the physiological ages of genotypes were assessed before field planting. Genotype capture was higher from the cryopreserved cotyledons than from the epicotyls. This technique has the advantage of preserving juvenile material while field testing is done. Early shoot multiplication in both treatments was good. After four transfer cycles, epicotyl cultures showed improved elongation and higher multiplication rates. After 6 months of in vitro growth, shoots from both treatments were given auxin pulses. Shoots of adventitious origin were slower to root than epicotyl-derived shoots. Overall rooting rates were satisfactory. Plants of adventitious origin were shorter when planted into nursery beds and when transferred to field trials. Assessment of relative physiological age indicated that all plants of adventitious origin showed some increase.

In vitro tuberization was induced on explants with different number of nodes layered on a medium with high sucrose (8%) content: 30, 15, 10, 7 and 6 explants per jar were cultured containing 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 nodes, respectively. Microtubers developed were graded by their smallest diameter, and the number of tubers per jar, their size distribution, their fresh weight and the multiplication rate were recorded. The highest multiplication rate (1.98) was obtained for explants with 5 nodes. The size distribution of tubers was markedly affected by treatments. The majority of microtubers (49.4%) were 6-8 mm in the case of the smallest explants (with I node). When explants with 2 to 5 nodes were used, the most microtubers were 8-10 mm but with an increase of explant size, more and more microtubers were produced with larger diameter up to 16 mm and average fresh weight of tubers also increased with the increase of explant size. For the microtuber production of Desiree the use of explants with two nodes can be suggested because in this treatment the average fresh weight of microtubers was high enough (250 mg) and the number of large sized microtubers was very high (79% was larger than 6 mm and 53% was larger than 8 mm).
