In vitro rooting of micropropagated shoots were carried out with the aim of evaluating the root induction responses of two tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum MILL) varieties (Gelilema and Chali) using Indole -3- butyric acid (IBA). Seven levels of IBA (0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25 and 1.5 mg L-1) were used in a completely randomized design (CRD) in factorial combinations (seven level of IBA*two varieties) with three replications.  After the plantlets were kept in the rooting media for three weeks, data on rooting percentage, number of roots/shoots and root length in cm were collected. The analysis of variance showed that the interaction of IBA*Var was highly significantly different for rooting percentage, a number of roots/shoot and root length at p<0.01. The highest rooting percentage (100.00±0.00), number of roots/shoot (14.20±0.35) and root length (10.7±0.29) were received from Chali on free Murashige and Skoog medium (MS). At the same time, the lowest percentage of rooting (11.11±0.00), number of roots/shoot (0.887±0.19) and root length (1.00±0.00 cm) were obtained from Gelilema on MS+1.5mg/l IBA. For acclimatization, the in vitro rooted shoots were transplanted into plastic pots containing a mixture of oven sterilized soil and sand at a ratio of 2:1. After three weeks, a survival rate of 67.7% for Chali and 58.1% for Gelilema was obtained. From the above result, it can be concluded that free MS medium was the best for in vitro rooting of the two tomato varieties. The optimized protocol will be useful for rapid in vitro multiplication of the two tomato varieties.

Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation system has been developed for two tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) varieties, namely Pusa Ruby (PR) and BARI Tomato-3 (BT-3). Prior to the establishment of transformation protocol cotyledonary leaf explants from the two varieties were cultured to obtain genotype independent in vitro regeneration. Healthy multiple shoot regeneration was obtained from the cut ends of cotyledonary leaf segments for both the varieties on MS containing 1.0 mg/l BAP and 0.1 mg/l IAA. The maximum root induction from the regenerated shoots was achieved on half the strength of MS medium supplemented with 0.2 mg/l IAA. The in vitro grown plantlets were successfully transplanted into soil where they flowered and produced fruits identical to those developed by control plants. Transformation ability of cotyledonary leaf explants was tested with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 harboring binary plasmid pBI121, containing GUS and npt II genes. Transformed cotyledonary leaf explants were found to produce multiple shoots on MS containing 1.0 mg/l BAP and 0.1 mg/l IAA. Selection of the transformed shoots was carried out by gradually increasing the concentration of kanamycin to 200 mg/l since kanamycin resistant gene was used for transformation experiments. Shoots that survived under selection pressure were subjected to rooting. Transformed rooted plantlets were transferred to soil. Stable expression of GUS gene was detected in the various tissues from putatively transformed plantlets using GUS histochemical assay.  Key words: In vitro regeneration, transformation, tomato D.O.I. 10.3329/ptcb.v19i1.5004 Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 19(1): 101-111, 2009 (June)

The aim of this study was to determine the concentration and exposure time to NaCl suitable for the micropropagation of banana, through the analysis of growth traits. Banana propagules were inoculated in MS medium with different concentrations of NaCl (0; 50; 75 and 100 mM) for 120 days (multiplication and rooting, 60 days each), with monthly subcultures. These propagules were measured for plant height, number of leaves, sprouting rate, average number of formed propagules, rooting rate, root length and survival rate. After 30 days, NaCl reduced sprouting rate at multiplication; the number of leaves, rooting rate and root length in rooting; and the height and propagules number in both phases. After 60 days, the NaCl affected the sprouting rate and propagules number in the multiplication; length of root in rooting; and the height and number of leaves in both phases. After 120 days, the reduction in the survival rate was proportional to the increase of NaCl in the medium. Thus, it is concluded that NaCl reduces most of the growth traits and the treatments with 75 and 100 mM NaCl affected multiplication and in vitro rooting more intensely.

The experiment was conducted to develop an efficient protocol for in vitro regeneration of mungbean (Vignaradiata) on the aspect of regeneration potentiality of two mungbean varieties (BINA mung 5 and BINA mung 7) as influenced by different combinations of growth regulators supplemented with MS medium. Cotyledon explant of both varieties was used for the present study. Data were collected for various characters of callus initiation, shoot regeneration and root proliferation. Initiation of callus (%) and required days for its initiation and weight of callus were influenced significantly due to the effect of varieties where BINA mung 5 produced more callus induction (40.36%) at minimum requiring time (18.27 days) including heavier sizes of callus (1.54 g) than BINA mung 7 when BINA mung 5 further recorded the longest root (2.92 cm) compare to BINA mung 7. Effect of treatments of the present study were significantly influenced the whole characters regarding callus culture, shoot regeneration and root proliferation. The highest percentage of callus (88.44%) within minimum time (12.53 days) including larger sizes callus (3.521 g) were produced in 1.0 mg L–1 BAP + 2.5 mg L–1 NAA among the treatments while the highest percentage of regenerated shoot (83.44%) at minimum requiring time (17.59 days) and more shoots (7.69 callus–1) were obtained in 1.0 mg L–1 BAP + 2.0 mg L– 1 NAA. Root induction (82.50%), number of roots plantlet–1 (8.469) with minimum requiring time for initiation (14.13 days) and root length (5.250 cm) were the highest in 0.2 mg L–1 IAA + 1.0 mg L–1 kinetin + 0.2 mg L–1 BAP. Incase of interaction, percentage of callus initiation (89.38 %) was the highest in BINA mung 5 treated by 1.0 mg L–1 BAP + 2.5 mg L–1 NAA at requiring minimum time (12.38 days) while same treatment produced the larger callus (3.581 g) among the interactions. The highest percentage (84.38%) and number (7.813 callus–1) of shoot with minimum requiring time (17.50 days) were found from BINA mung 5 treated by 1.0 mg L–1 BAP + 2.0 mg L–1 NAA. Similarly, the longest shoot (5.58 cm) was produced from the BINA mung 5 treated by 1.0 mg L–1 BAP + 2.0 mg L–1 NAA. However, root induction (%), roots plantlet–1, days required for root initiation and root length were statistically similar among the whole interaction treatments due to non significant variation. This result mentioned that the variety BINA mung 5 was better than BINA mung 7 for callus induction, shoot regeneration and root initiation while 1.0 mg L–1 BAP + 2.5 mg L–1 NAA, 1.0 mg L–1 BAP + 2.0 mg L–1 NAA and 0.2 mg L–1 IAA + 1.0 mg L–1 kinetin + 0.2 mg L–1 BAP supplemented with MS medium were the best combinations for better callusing, higher ability of shoot regeneration and root proliferation.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jesnr.v7i2.22203 J.

In this study, micro propagation of two Iranian fenugreek populations and their morphological and biochemical responses to salinity and drought stresses in in vitro culture condition were conducted using factorial experiment in a completely randomized design in three replications. Different explant type (terminal bud, cotyledon and epicotyledon explant) were cultured in MS medium contain different concentration of plant growth regulators such as kin (0, 0.5 and 1 mg / l) and 2,4-D (0.5, 1 and 2 mg / l). Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 1 mg/l kinetin and 2 mg/l 2,4-D showed the highest callus proliferation rate per explants in both populations. The highest amount of callus volume was obtained from the explants of the terminal bud. Proliferated calli from terminal bud explant were green and yellowish, from cotyledon were yellowish to white with soft texture, and the cotyledons were greenish and compact. The results of salinity stresses with different concentrations of sodium chloride (0, 70 and 120 mM) and drought stress with polyethylene glycol (0, 5 and 10%) showed that both stresses decreased callus growth and increased total protein, proline, catalase, peroxidase and trigonelin content in both populations. Trigonelin measurement showed that ‘Borazjan’ papulation had higher trigonelin content, in vitro, than ‘Ardestan’ papulation.

Current Status of Saussurea heteromalla was investigated in Galiyat areas of District Abbottabad, viz., Jahaffar, Seri, Beeran Gali, Banj, Haryala, Daryala Gali, Sarbhanna, Barriyan, Akhreela and Broangiala. Saussurea heteromalla was found common in Seri, Sarbhanna and Barriyan; endangered in Haryala, Jahaffar, Banj, Daryala Gali and Beeran Gali and absent in Akhreela and Broangiala. In vitro regeneration of Saussurea heteromalla (D. Don.) Hand-Mazz on MS media was conducted and shoots were developed on full strength MS medium supplemented with 1 mgL-1 GA3. The developed shoots were transferred for root induction to half strength MS medium fortified with various concentrations of Indole butyric acid (IBA) and α-Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) i.e. T1 (control), T2 (2 mgL-1 IBA), T3 (3 mgL-1 IBA), T4 (4 mgL-1 IBA), T5 (1 mgL-1 NAA), T6 (2 mgL-1 NAA) and T7 (3 mgL-1 NAA). Maximum mean shoot length (6.3 cm), mean number of leaves (7), mean number of nodes (5.25); highest root emergence percentage (71%), means root length (1.5 cm), mean number of roots (3) and highest survival rate (100%) was recorded in treatment T4. However, treatments T5 and T6 also seem to be effective for in vitro rooting of Saussurea heteromalla. Treatments T2, T3 and T7 showed minimum root growth. It was concluded that IBA at higher concentration is more effective for in vitro rooting and better shoot growth of Saussurea heteromalla whereas NAA also initiate rooting but at lower concentration.
