Laurus nobilis L. is among the species which are most threatened by massive degradation in Morocco. The multiplication by seed or by cuttings gives very low percentages of recovery that is insufficient to meet the demand of growing market. In vitro culture proves to be a tremendous asset to solve this problem. Our work has focused on the study of seed germination of this species and its multiplication from microcuttings. Finally, we studied the ac-climatization ability of the plantlets resulting from this germination. The study of the germination, via the further measurement of the length of the aerial part and the roots and the number of axillary buds for nine weeks, showed that the MS basal medium was more efficient than media 1/2M.S and WPM. Among the eight tested hormones, IAA yielded the best growth of the plantlets. Hormonal combination of NAA and kinetin resulted into a per-centage of the greatest success in reaching 67 % micropropagation. The study also revealed that the MS basal medium in the presence of the IAA plants can acclimate most easily in two types of substrates with improved development in the peat alone.

Hutan sagu (Metroxylon sagu Rottb.) dapat ditemukan dalam area yang cukup luas di wilayah Maluku dan Papua. Besarnya keanekaragaman hayati dari pohon sagu dapat dilihat di areal ini. Pohon sagu tumbuh secara alami terutama di daerah dataran atau rawa dengan sumber yang air melimpah. Tanaman sagu dapat diperbanyak dengan metode generatif melalui biji, dan vegetatif melalui tunas anakan. Dalam rangka mendukung perbanyakan pohon induk yang unggul secara in vitro dalam skala besar, perbaikan metode sterilisasi tunas anakan mutlak diperlukan. Tunas anakan muda (15-20 cm) yang diperoleh dari Propinsi Papua digunakan sebagai eksplan. Tujuan percobaan sterilisasi ini dilakukan untuk mendukung perbanyakan pohon sagu secara in vitro. Pada percobaan ini antibiotik digunakan untuk membersihkan jaringan internal eksplan dari jamur dan bakteri. Hasil percobaan ini menunjukkan bahwa campuran alkohol dan antibiotik dapat menekan pertumbuhan kontaminan.Kata kunci: Antibiotik, kontaminan jamur dan bakteri, kultur in vitro, metode sterilisasi, sagu ABSTRACTNatural sago (Metroxylon sagu Rottb.) forest can be found in large area in Maluku and Papua regions. There are wide genetic diversities of sago palm found in these areas. This palm grows along riverbanks and in swampy areas which are not suitable for other crops. Sago palm is propagated generatively by seed and vegetatively by suckers. With the purpose of establishing the in vitro culture method for a large-scale of mass clonally propagation of superior genotypes of sago palm, generating sterilized explants are very important. Young suckers (15-20 cm) obtained from areas of Papua Province were used as explants. The sterilization experiments were carrying out to support the tissue culture of sago palm. Sterilization was conducted using antibiotics in order to get rid of fungi and bacteria from inner part of explants tissues. The results showed that from all sterilization methods tested, the best result was treatment using alcohol and antibiotic as disinfectant agents.Keywords: Antibiotics, fungi and bacteria contaminants, in vitro culture, sterilization method, sago palm

Abstract The term “sempre-viva” denotes plants whose structures retain their natural form and color after being cut and dried. For these reasons, they are commercially valuable for ornamental purposes. However, due to extractive overexploitation of their inflorescences, some of these species are considered endangered. The genus Comanthera includes the sempre-vivas species with greatest economic importance in Brazil. Previous studies have shown that tissue culture is a workable strategy for in vitro propagation and conservation of species of this genus. However, these studies are still incipient. Therefore, the objective of this review is to summarize the findings on the in vitro cultivation of species of the Comanthera genus, to serve as the basis for future research. The text is structured in two main topics: micropropagation and in vitro conservation.

Hyperhydricity is a frequently problem in plants during in vitro culture and affected micropropagation ofplants. To develop an efficient in vitro regenerated system without hyperdydricity, we demonstrated the effectof different disinfected agents (mercuric chlorite and hypochlorite), growth regulators, their concentrationsand combinations, Agar, pH, ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) and number of subcultures. Mercuric chlorite at0.07% and exposing time (9–10 min) was appropriate for hygienic culture. The shoots induced by Benzyladnine(BA) alone or in combination with α-Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) exhibited maximum multiplicationwith symptoms of hyperhydricity than those induced by Kinetin alone or in combination with NAA. Hyperhydricitywas also reduced by increasing the concentration of agar, pH and elimination of NH4NO3 from themacroelements of Murashig and Skoog (MS) medium. Repeated subcultures affected both multiplication andhyperhydricity. The multiplication of shoots increased from parental culture up to 5th subculture and thereafterdeclined in 6th subculture. Although shoot hyperhydricity were observed from 1st subculture (19%) andthen increased up to 85% in 6th subculture. This increased in hyperhydricity could be due to the remaininginfluence of hormones. In shoots of 5th subculture the content of chlorophyll (dark green) were higher thanshoots of 6th subculture.

Abstract Bauhinia species (including B. acuminata, B. variegata, B. purpurea, B. monandra, B. galpinii, B. blakeana and B. acuminata) are popular ornamental plants, usually woody ornamentals or herbaceous lianas, with attractive flowers typical of the Leguminosae of arid, temperate, sub-tropical and tropical zones. Bauhinia species also serve as fodder and many have multiple medicinal and biological properties. There is an interest in commerce and amongst collectors to clonally propagate species from this genus. This review highlights protocols that currently exist for the in vitro culture of Bauhinia species as a means to clonally propagate material.

We examined an in vitro culture method for propagating unconditioned, field-grown broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. Botrytis group) from peduncle explants by testing 20 cultivars in fall and spring. Propagation was affected significantly by genotype (cultivar) and season. The percentage of explants regenerating shoots was significantly higher for cultivars grown in spring (17% to 100%) than in fall (0% to 66%). Shoot regeneration from explants of plants within a cultivar also varied significantly (0% to 100%). Additionally, the number of propagules produced per explant was influenced by cultivar and was highly correlated with the percentage of explants regenerating shoots. This method for propagating field-grown broccoli lines is useful, but its applicability can be limited by genetic and environmental factors.

Hedychium coronarium J. Koenig is a multipurpose plant with significant economic value, but it has been overexploited and listed as a vulnerable, near threatened or endangered species. In vitro culture methods have been used for propagating disease-free propagules for its conservation and production. However, explant contamination has been a bottleneck in in vitro propagation due to the use of rhizomes as the explant source. Plants in the family Zingiberaceae have pseudostems that support inflorescences, while rhizomes are considered true stems. The present study, for the first time, reported that the pseudostem bears nodes and vegetative buds and could actually be true stems. The evaluation of different sources of explants showed that mature node explants derived from the stem were the most suitable ones for in vitro culture because of the lowest contamination and the highest bud break rates. Culture of mature node explants on MS medium supplemented with 13.32, 17.76, and 22.20 μM 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), each in combination with 9.08 μM thidiazurin (TDZ) and 0.05 μM α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) induced the conversion of buds to micro-rhizomes in six weeks. More than 96% of the micro-rhizomes cultured on MS medium supplemented with 17.76 μM BA, 6.81 μM TDZ, and 2.46 μM indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) were converted to globular-shaped clumps with protocorm-like bodies (PLBs). Further culture of a piece of the clumps induced more than 15 adventitious shoots. Adventitious roots were produced at the base of adventitious shoots, and plantlets were readily transplanted to a substrate for acclimatization in a shaded greenhouse. The survival rate of the plants in the greenhouse was up to 90%. Plants grew vigorously, and there were no off-types from the regenerated 11,100 plants. Our study also, for the first time, shows that H. coronarium can be regenerated via PLBs, which may represent a new way of the in vitro propagation of H. coronarium. The established protocol could be used for the increased propagation of H. coronarium for conservation or commercial production.

ABSTRACT The in vitro propagation of chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum × grandiflorum (Ramat.) Kitam.), one of the world’s most important ornamentals, is a very well-studied topic and shows numerous strides each year. This mini-review condenses the knowledge that has been published on chrysanthemum biotechnology, especially in vitro culture in the wider plant science literature. In 2013 and 2014, important strides were made in molecular breeding, particularly anti-viral strategies, including through transgenics, and our understanding of flower genetics and flowering regulation.
