Abstract The inoculation of plant species with mycorrhiza fungus Piriformospora indica results in enhancement of growth, increase in yield, and induction of resistance to biotic and abiotic diseases through improvement of the root system. The aim of the present study was to optimize in vitro propagation protocol for three indigenous apples (Malus × domestica) cultivars (ꞌGolbaharꞌ, ꞌSharbatiꞌ, ꞌSoltani Shabestariꞌ) and one commercial cultivar (ꞌGolden Deliciousꞌ). Furthermore, the efficiency of P. indica at rooting stage was investigated on three cultivars (ꞌSharbatiꞌ, ꞌSoltani Shabestariꞌ, ꞌGolden Deliciousꞌ). Establishment and proliferation stages were optimized by collecting explants at different seasons and comparing different culture media respectively. Rooting optimization included six treatments containing different concentrations of auxins in the presence or absence of P. indica. Results showed that at the establishment stage, a maximum percent of survival was observed in explants collected in spring. At the proliferation stage, different media had a divergent effects on distinct cultivars. Although all cultivars reacted favourable to micropropagation in MS (Murashige & Skoog 1962) basal medium, the presence or absence of cytokinin 2ip (N6-(2-Isopentenyl) adenine) in the culture media showed significant and incremental improvements in growth indices. In all cultivars highest rooting percent, root length, root thickness, and the number of roots/explant was observed in MS media containing auxins for three weeks followed by a treatment of MS medium containing P. indica for another three weeks. Plantlets treated with P. indica, grow stronger and healthier at the acclimation stage compared to the ones that excluded P. indica.

Physalis angulata L. is an important medicinal herb. An efficient direct adventitious plant regeneration protocol was developed for large scale propagation using leaf disc as explants. The explants were cultured on MS basal medium supplemented with 0.25-3.0 mg/L 6-benzyl amino purine (BAP) for primary shoot proliferation. Inclusion of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and gibberellic acid (GA3) in the culture medium along with BAP promoted a higher rate of shoot multiplication. The maximum number of shoots was produced in MS + BAP (1.0 mg/L) + IAA (0.5 mg/L) + GA3 (0.20 mg/L) after the third subculture. An average of 152.8 ± 0.40 shoots were produced from each leaf disc. For root induction the shootlets were transferred to MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). The highest percentage of root induction was observed in 1.0 mg/L (IBA). Rooted plants were successfully established in the soil after hardening. The survival percentage of rooted plants on soil was found to be 85%. This result will facilitate the conservation and propagation of the important medicinal herb Physalis angulata L.

Callusogenesis and regeneration ability of cotyledon and hypocotyl explants from three Bulgarian pepper varieties in MS basal medium supplemented with l-3mg/l BAP. l.0mg/1 IAA and 0.5mg/l GA3 was studied. In the different variants of culture medium was registered high level of callusogenesis and organogenesis in both type of explants from the all varieties. The highest percentage of plant-regenerants is established in cotyledon explants (from 3.3 to 18.3) in variant 3 of the culture medium containing 3mg/l BA. In the process of micropropagation by stem explants of the same studied pepper varieties the addition of the vitamins C. B12. Casein hydrolysate and Ferulic acid had a stimulation effect on the plant growth in height and rooting. In result of anther cultivation from three pepper varieties and four breeding lines the highest percentage of embryo structure formation was registered in varieties Albena and Strjama (12.0 and 13.8 respectively). The Bulgarian peppers are recalcitrant and their in vitro answer is different depending from the explants type, genotype and the culture media composition.

Abstract. Isnaini Y, Praptosuwiryo TNg. 2020. In vitro spore germination and early gametophyte development of Cibotium barometz (L.) J. Sm. in different media. Biodiversitas 21: 5373-5381. Cibotium barometz (L.) J. Sm. is known as the golden chicken fern and included in Appendix II of CITES. It is an important export commodity for traditional and modern medicine. Globally, populations of this species are under significant pressure due to overexploitation in the wild. In vitro culture is one of the technologies used for ex-situ propagation and conservation of rare and endangered ferns and lycophytes. This study’s objectives were: (i) to observe in vitro spore germination and early gametophyte development of C. barometz, and (ii) to determine the best culture medium for rapid spore germination and early development of the gametophytes. The sterilized spores were sown in half-strength Murashige & Skoog (½MS) basal medium supplemented with combinations of 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP) and α-Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). A factorial combination of four BAP concentrations (0, 2, 4, and 6 mg L-1) with four concentrations of NAA (0; 0.01; 0.03 and 0.05 mg L-1) created 16 treatments replicated in a Completely Randomized Design. Spore germination of C. barometz was observed to be Vittaria-type, and its prothallial development was Drynaria-type. Spore germination started 7-14 days after sowing. Young heart-shape gametophytes consisting of 110-240 cells were formed in 45-61 days after sowing. The two best spore culture media for rapid spore germination and development of C. barometz gametophytes were ½ MS with or without 2 mg L-1 BAP.

An experiment was conducted to study the in vitro culture of pointed gourd. Cotyledon rescued from physiologically matured seeds (PMS) and immatured seeds (IMS) of pointed gourd were used as explants. Cotyledon excised from PMS responded very well in all culture conditions. Plant regenerated from cotyledon of PMS ranged from 38 to 96% in different hormonal formulations of culture media. Highest percentage of shoot regeneration was observed in MS + 1.0 mg/l BAP and lowest in MS + 2.5 mg/l BAP. No plant regeneration was observed in cotyledon from immatured seeds. The highest percentage of root induction (99%) was achieved in half MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l NAA. The regenerated plantlets were successfully established in earthen pot.

An efficient method of clonal propagation through nodal culture of Solanum torvum Swartz. is described. Different concentrations of BAP/Kn alone or in combination with IAA were tested for direct shoot bud induction and proliferation. Lower concentration of BAP/Kn alone produced better shoot proliferation and elongation. Maximum number of shoot proliferation was achieved from MS supplemented with Kn 0.5 mg/l with an average 4.0 ± 1.41 shoots during 28 days of culture. Addition of IAA to the culture media in combination with BAP/ Kn significantly reduced the number of shoot formation. Regenerated plants also produced roots during subsequent culture in the same media supplemented with BAP/Kn alone or in combination with IAA. The easy nature of in vitro rooting of S. torvum was recorded without any separate root induction phase. Regenerated plants were successfully transferred to the field condition. Clonal feature was cytologically confirmed through the study of mitotic metaphase chromosomes of regenerated plants which reveals 2n = 24 somatic chromosomes. Comparative karyomorphological details between the mother and regenerated plants of S. torvum revealed close similarity in their chromosomal complements and falls under the category of "1B" Stebbin’s symmetric index suggesting true to type nature of the regenerated plant.Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 28(1): 69-76, 2018 (June)

Brinjal is the second most important vegetable crop after potato in Bangladesh in respect of total areas and third in production. It also plays a vital role in the national economy as a cash crop. An experiment was conducted with two cultivars of brinjal namely Jhumky and Islampuri to observe the callus induction ability of different explants-shoot tip, hypocotyl and midrib in MS basal media supplemented with different concentrations and combinations of growth regulators. The rate of callus induction from shoot tip, hypocotyl and midrib were 82.78%, 74.88% and 78.71%, respectively. Highest rate of callus induction was found in shoot tip. Variety Islampuri showed higher rate of callus induction (80.62%). Among the treatments 2mg/l NAA showed the best performance in callus proliferation. Cytokinin (0.5 mg/l BAP) showed highest percentage of shoot regeneration (57.13%). For root induction, MS basal medium was proved to be better treatment for average number (12-15) of roots. The survival rate of transferred regenerated plantlets after hardening was higher in Jhumky (80%). Regenerated plantlets from callus of both the varieties exhibited 4-9 times higher proline, 2-3 times lower vitamin C and 2-3 times higher iron (Fe) content compared to their seed derived seedlings. This experiment showed that it is possible to develop shoot and fruit borer tolerance brinjal genotypes through somatic embryogenesis that was selected based on biochemical markers within the very short period of time. These findings will be helpful for further selection of the selected variants in field condition in the next phase of the study.

Explant and monolayer cell cultures were initiated from oyster heart and embryonic tissue and maintained for periods of a few days to 6 mo depending on the type of tissue and the culture medium. A pH of 7.0–7.3 and a temperature of 20 °C were optimum. Vertebrate cell culture media prepared in a marine saline and supplemented with fetal bovine serum and protein digests provided a suitable basal medium. Supplementation of the basal medium with oyster hemolymph or extracts of oyster tissue markedly prolonged cell maintenance. Explant cultures of heart tissue with the subsequent outward migration of individual cells were most easily initiated and maintained for periods up to 6 mo. Although several cell types were observed, actively motile, granular amoebocytes predominated. No mitotic cells were observed even following exposure to a variety of mitogens. Cultures initiated from disaggregated larvae did yield actively dividing cells. Key words: oyster, cell culture, amoebocytes

AbstractZenia insignis Chun is a large, fast-growing deciduous tree. In this study, we successfully developed a reliable and efficient protocol for the regeneration of fertile plants via callus induction from leaf segments of young Z. insignis seedlings. The best results were obtained with a medium containing 11.00 μM 6-benzyladenine (6-BA), 1.20 μM indole-3-butytric acid (IBA), and 0.45 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), which yielded morphogenic callus within 2 weeks at a frequency of 62.23%. We tested the effect of IBA alone and in combination with 6-BA on the bud differentiation response of Z. insignis callus. Shoots differentiated normally when cultured on differentiation medium containing 6.00 μM 6-BA and 1.20 μM IBA. Regenerated buds elongated successfully in medium containing 1.20 μM gibberellic acid (GA3). The elongated shoots were then transferred to Murashige and Skoog basal medium supplemented with various combinations of naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) for root induction; well-developed roots were achieved on MS basal medium supplemented with 0.01 μM NAA at a rooting rate of 89.23%. Rooted plantlets were successfully acclimatised to a greenhouse at a survival rate exceeding 90.00%.

<p>ABSTRAK<br />Peningkatkan keragaman genetik purwoceng memerlukan aplikasi<br />teknologi alternatif yang mampu membentuk keragaman baru. Tujuan<br />penelitian adalah untuk meningkatkan keragaman genetik dan toleransi<br />purwoceng terhadap cekaman suhu tinggi melalui iradiasi dan seleksi in<br />vitro. Tahapan penelitian meliputi induksi mutasi kalus embriogenik<br />dengan sinar gamma, seleksi in vitro dengan cekaman suhu tinggi, induksi<br />perakaran  somaklon  putatif,  analisis  keragaman  genetik  secara<br />flowcytometry, dan aklimatisasi somaklon putatif. Iradiasi dilakukan pada<br />dosis 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, dan 5 Krad sedangkan seleksi in vitro dilakukan pada<br />tiga level suhu (20, 25, dan 30 0 C). Induksi perakaran dilakukan dalam dua<br />tahap, dengan menggunakan media DKW atau MS yang mengandung<br />sukrosa 3-6% dengan penambahan IBA atau NAA taraf 0,5-1,5 ppm. Hasil<br />penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kalus purwoceng mampu bertahan hidup<br />pada dosis iradiasi tertinggi (5 Krad). Meningkatnya dosis iradiasi<br />cenderung meningkatkan pendewasaan embrio somatik. Pada tahap seleksi<br />in vitro, kalus purwoceng mampu tumbuh pada kondisi suhu tertinggi<br />(30 0 C). Tingkat proliferasi kalus yang tinggi dan jumlah embrio somatik<br />terbanyak diperoleh dari perlakuan suhu 25 0 C. Embrio somatik yang<br />terbentuk dari perlakuan suhu tinggi tersebut merupakan kandidat<br />somaklon yang toleran suhu tinggi pada lingkungan dataran rendah.<br />Diantara embrio somatik yang terbentuk, hanya embrio yang berasal dari<br />perlakuan suhu 20 0 C saja yang berhasil membentuk planlet. Media yang<br />terbaik untuk induksi perakaran adalah media MS yang mengandung<br />sukrosa 4% dengan penambahan NAA 1,5 ppm. Analisis ploidi pada daun<br />embrio somatik menunjukkan terbentuknya varian yang bersifat tetraploid<br />(4x).<br />Kata kunci: Pimpinella pruatjan, iradiasi sinar gamma, seleksi in vitro,<br />keragaman genetik, suhu tinggi</p><p>ABSTRACT<br />To improve new pruatjan genetic variations, the alternative<br />technology should be applied. The objective of the research was to increase<br />pruatjan genetic variation and tolerance to the high temperature through<br />induced mutation and in vitro selection. The steps of this study were induced<br />mutation of embryogenic callus by gamma irradiation, in vitro selection, root<br />induction of putative somaclones, genetic variation analysis by flowcytometer,<br />and putative somaclones acclimatization. The dosages of gamma irradiation<br />were 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 Krad. In vitro selection was conducted at three<br />temperatures (20, 25, and 30 0 C). The root induction was conducted in two<br />steps by using DKW or MS media containing of 3-6% sucrose with<br />addition of 0.5-1.5 ppm IBA or NAA. The result showed that embryogenic<br />calli could survive after treatment of the highest gamma irradiation dose. It<br />tends to increase the maturation of somatic embryos. During in vitro<br />selection, embryogenic calli could grow at the highest temperature but the<br />highest callus proliferation and the number of somatic embryos were<br />obtained from 25 0 C. The somatic embryos survived and grew at the high<br />temperature are assumed as somaclones which considered as the<br />candidates of tolerant plants to high temperature that can be developed in<br />the of low altitude area. Among the regenerated somatic embryos, only the<br />20 0 C-derived embryos were successfully form plantlets. The best medium<br />for root induction was MS basal medium containing of 4% sucrose<br />supplemented with 1.5 ppm NAA. The ploidy analysis of somatic embryos<br />leaf showed a tetraploid (4x) variant.<br />Key words: Pimpinella pruatjan, gamma irradiation, in vitro selection,<br />genetic variation, high temperature</p>
