The present study was undertaken for callus induction and subsequent plantlet regeneration in blackgram. The study comprised of experiments for callus initiation, shoot regeneration and plantlet formation from cotyledon, hypocotyl, root tip and shoot tip explants. The effects of explants and different concentrations and combinations of BAP (0.0, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 and 10 mg L-1) and NAA (0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mg L-1)) on callus induction were investigated first. Among the explants, hypocotyls showed the best performance in callus formation (92.33%) when cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2.5 mg L-1) BAP and 1.5 mg L-1) NAA followed by cotyledon, shoot tip and root tip explants, respectively. The height percentage of shoot regeneration from the calli derived from hypocotyls (56.33%) was achieved in MS medium supplemented with 3.0 mg L-1) BAP and 0.3 mg L-1) NAA and 0.5 mg L-1) GA3. Calli from other explants had no shoot regeneration. The regenerated shoots were transferred to rooting medium supplemented with different concentrations of IBA and NAA. The high frequency (100 %) of rooting was observed with MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg L-1) IBA. The rooted plants were transferred to pots for hardening.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/pa.v19i2.16917 Progress. Agric. 19(2): 27 - 35, 2008

The experiment was conducted during May to December 2008 in the Biotechnology Laboratory of Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh to observe the callus induction, regeneration potentiality and to establish a suitable in vitro plantlet regeneration protocol of Corchorus olitorius. MS medium supplemented with different phytohormone concentrations and combinations were used to observe the callus induction, shoot regeneration and root formation ability of the cotyledon with attached petiole derived explant of three genotypes viz. O-9897, O-72 and OM-1. The highest callus induction (92.85%) was observed in O-9897 followed by O-72 (82.14%) in the MS media supplemented with 2.5 mg/L BAP + 0.5 mg/L IAA. Genotype O-9897 in MS media supplemented with 2.5 mg/L BAP + 0.5 mg/L IAA produced the highest percentage of shoot regenerants (83.33%) followed by O-72 (75.00%) in the media supplemented with 2.5 mg/L BAP + 0.5 mg/L IAA. The root formation from regenerants was the best on halfstrength of MS media supplemented with 0.6 mg/L IBA in genotype O-9897 (45.00%). The in vitro regenerated plantlets from the genotypes O-9897 could be established in the field. Therefore, the genotypes O-9897 of C. olitorius in MS media supplemented with 2.5 mg/L BAP + 0.5 mg/L IAA could be used for callus induction and shoot regeneration.

  The application of biotechnology in upland rice improvement programs depends on the availability of efficient regeneration protocols.  Although protocols for shoot regeneration of upland rice are available, none has been reported for pigmented cultivars.  This study reports on a protocol for callus induction and regeneration of Tadong, a pigmented upland rice cultivar from Sabah.  For callus induction, immature embryos were cultured on media containing 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic (2,4-D) at various concentrations (0 – 2.5 mg/L) and on different types of media (MS; MSB5; N6B5; N6).  To induce shoot regeneration, callus explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with combinations of 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP) at various concentrations (0 – 3.0 mg/L) and 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) at 1.0 mg/L.  To induce shoot development, callus explants were pre-treated with Thidiazuron (TDZ) at various concentrations (0-1.0 mg/l) and exposed to different desiccation periods (0 – 72 hours).  2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic at 2.5 mg/L and N6B5 medium resulted in the highest percentages of explant forming callus which were 60.3 ± 17.0 % and 58.7 ± 9.8 % respectively.   The regeneration media failed to induce shoot on callus explants, instead, green spots were formed on the surface of the callus.  The green spots were stimulated to develop into shoots when the callus explants were pre-treated with 0.5 mg/L TDZ or exposed to partial desiccation for 24 h, the percentages of explant forming shoot were 35.7 ± 4.8 % and 47.7 ± 6.8 % respectively.   Shoots developed into complete plants on hormone-free MS medium and acclimatized.

To regenerate plantlets both directly and indirectly, different explants (cotyledon, hypocotyl, root tip and shoot tip) of sweet gourd (Cucurbita moschata) were cultured on medium supplemented with different concentrations and combinations of NAA (0.0, 0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/L) and BAP (0.0, 0.5, 2.0 and 5.0 mg/L). Cotyledon explants performed best in callus induction. The combination of 5 mg/L BAP and 0.2 mg/L NAA produced the highest callus frequency in cotyledon (90.0%). The calli derived from cotyledon, hypocotyl and root tip were cultured in MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of kinetin, BAP and/or NAA for shoot induction. Regeneration via callus was achieved only from cotyledon calli at a frequency of 65.0% on 2 mg/L BAP and 0.2 mg/L NAA. Shoot tips cultured for direct regeneration, in the same media containing 1 mg/L BAP or 1 mg/L BAP + 0.2 mg/L NAA resulted in 100.0% shoot differentiation. The regenerated shoots rooted on MS medium with or without 0.1 mg/L NAA (100%).DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/pa.v18i2.18093 Progress. Agric. 18(2): 61 - 66, 2007

A complete and efficient protocol was developed for in vitro callus induction, somatic embryogenesis and plantlet regeneration from in vivo nodal and internodal segments and shoot tips of sissoo (Dalbergia sissoo Roxb.). The highest percentage of callus induction (100%) was achieved from nodal segment on MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/1 BAP + 0.5 mg/1 NAA. This combination also produced highest fresh weight (5.4 g.) of callus per culture and produced friable green callus. The highest number of shoots (2.4) per explant was recorded on MS medium supplemented with 1.5 mg/1 BAP + 0.5 mg/1 IAA for internode segment. The maximum number of roots (5.1)per shoot was observed in the MS medium having 1.0 mg/1 IBA + 2.0 mg/1 NAA. The well Rooted plantlets were acclimatized and successfully established into soil in the natural condition where 60% plantlets were survived.

Surface disinfested nodal and shoot-tip sections of chinkapin oak (Quercus muehlenbergii Engelm.), obtained from adult or juvenile source, when cultured on WFM supplemented with BA or kinetin (1.0 -5.0 mg l-1) produced greater number of axillary shoots per explant and shoot lengths than MS medium. Nodal and shoot-tip explants cultured in WPM containing cytokinins, BA or kinetin (0.1 - 5.0 mg l“) resulted in greater number of axillary shoots than media containing auxins, 2,4-D or NAA (1.0 - 5.0 mg l-1). In vitro grown shoot explants cultured in WFM shoot multiplication medium containing thidiazuron did not produce axillary shoots. Microshoots when cultured in WFM plus NAA or IBA (0.1 -2.0 mg l-1), or subjected to IBA (0.5 mg l-1) pulse treatment (0, 5, 10 or 15 min.) did not root.

Regeneration ability of five Nicotiana varieties viz., Virginia, Jati, Motihari, CC Bengal and Sumatra were investigated via callus induction using leaf discs. Explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with different concentrations and combinations of plant growth regulators. Callus formation frequency was 67.20%. Among the varieties used, Motihari induced the highest percentage (97.50%) of callus followed by Jati (92.50%) in 2.0 rng/L Kinetin and 2.0 mg/L IAA. Shoots were induced from calli cultured on the same medium. Maximum shoot formation from leaf discs was 82.50% on medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L Kinetin and 2.0 mg/L IAA. It was also revealed from this study that Motihari was the best variety for callus formation and subsequent plantlet regeneration which is a pre-requisite for vector mediated transformation for varietal improvement of Nicotiana species. The rooting response of regenerated shoots was observed by using ½ MS medium with IBA (0.0, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/L). The highest root formation was found in Motihari (90%) with ½ MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L IBA. After that regenerated plantlets with plenty of roots were transferred successfully to pots and subsequently to the field.

Abstract Background Sophora mollis Royle (family Fabaceae, subfamily-Papilionaceae) is a multipurpose legume distributed in plains and foothills of the North-West Himalaya to Nepal and is facing high risk of extinction due to habitat loss and exploitation by the local people for its fuel and fodder values. Therefore, the present study was conducted to standardize a micropropagation protocol for Sophora mollis by using shoot tip explants and to study the meiotic chromosome count in the species. Results Multiple shoots were induced in shoot tip explants of Sophora mollis in Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with different concentrations of cytokinins alone (BAP, TDZ, and Kinetin) and in combination with varying concentrations of NAA. MS medium supplemented with BAP (8.9 μM) was observed to be the optimal medium for multiple shoot induction and maximum 25.32 shoots per explant was obtained with average length of 4.5 ± 0.8 cm. In vitro developed shoots were transferred onto rooting media supplemented with different concentrations of auxin (IAA, IBA, and NAA). Maximum 86% rooting was observed in half-strength MS medium supplemented with 21.20 μM NAA with an average of 21.26 roots per culture. In vitro raised plantlets were adapted to greenhouse for better acclimatization and 60% plants were successfully transferred to the open environment. Based on the chromosome counts available from the literature and the current study, the species tend to show a basic chromosome number of x = 9. Conclusion The micropropagation protocol standardized can be helpful for the ex situ mass multiplication and germplasm conservation of the endangered species. Moreover, the ex situ conservation approach will be helpful in actively bridging the gap between ex situ and in situ approaches through the reintroduction of species in the wild. The cytological studies revealed the basic chromosome number x = 9 of the species.

Baru (Dipteryx alata Vog.) is a species with great economic and environmental potential; it has popular acceptance, besides being a very productive species. Alternative propagation methods are important for species maintenance and exploration. Thus, micropropagation emerged as an alternative technique, providing genetic stability and the production of a large number of seedlings. The aim of the present investigation was to develop a callus induction protocol for in vitro baru explants. The tested explants were nodal, internodal and foliar segments. The explants were disinfected for 30 seconds in 70% alcohol (v/v) and 2 minutes in sodium hypochlorite (1.25% active chlorine). This was followed by triple washing. The inoculation was carried out in test tubes containing 15 mL MS medium (30 g L-1 sucrose, 6 g L-1 agar and 100 mg L-1 ascorbic acid) supplemented with 2.0 mg L-1 naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). The solution also contained 0.0, 2.5 or 5.0 mg L-1 of 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) with the pH adjusted to 5.8. In the incubation phase, the explants were cultured for seven days in the dark and then subjected to a photoperiod of 16 hours (43 µmol m-2 s-1) at 25 ± 2 °C. The treatments were studied with 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 or 10.0 mg L-1 BAP additions to the MS. Callus formation, contamination and oxidation evaluations were undertaken. The results obtained when using 2.0 mg L-1 NAA concluded that such a treatment should be used to induce callogenesis from nodal explants, while for the tested baru leaf explants, the best results for callus formation were given by the combination of 2.0 mg L-1 NAA with 2.5 mg L-1 of BAP to.
