An efficient and reproducible in vitro regeneration protocol was established for two varieties of ginger (Z. officinale Roscoe) namely, BARI Ada-1 and Chinese ginger accession number SG876). In case of BARI Ada-1 best result was obtained on MS supplemented with 2.0 mg/l BAP, 0.5 mg/l Kn and 0.5 mg/l NAA. In this combination, 95% rhizome bud explants responded within 6 - 8 days and mean number of shoots per explant was 8.79 ± 0.42. On the other hand, Chinese ginger showed best (90%) shoot regeneration response from the same explants on the same medium and hormonal combinations but in exchange of 0.25 mg/l NAA. In this hormonal composition shoot initiation started within 7 - 8 days of culture and mean number of shoots/explant was 6.83 ± 0.71 after 24 - 27 days of culture. Maximum root induction (90 and 80%) was found on MS supplemented with 0.5 mg/l IBA and 0.5 mg/l NAA in case of BARI Ada-1 and Chinese ginger, respectively. The in vitro regenerated plantlets were successfully transplanted into the soil after acclimatization.

An efficient in vitro regeneration system was developed for Rauvolfia serpentina L. through direct and indirect organogenesis from nodal and leaf explants. Among the different growth regulators, MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/l BAP, 0.5mg/l IAA and 0.02mg/l NAA found best for the multiple shoot formation from nodal segments. In this combination 98% explants produced multiple shoots and the average number of shoots per explants is 13∙4. The frequency of callus induction and multiple shoot induction from leaves was highest 88% in MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/l BAP, where mean number of shoots/explants was 12.5. The highest frequency of root induction (80%) and mean number of roots/plantlets (10) were obtained on half strength of MS medium containing 0.2 mg/l IBA. The rooted plantlets were transferred for hardening following acclimatization and finally were successfully established in the field.Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res.53(2), 133-138, 2018

An efficient rapid in vitro regeneration protocol was described from nodal segment, leaf and petiole explants. MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/l BAP and 0.5 mg/l IAA was found best for the multiple shoot formation from nodal segments. In this combination 99% explants produced multiple shoots and the average number of shoots per explants was 20.1 ± 1.96. For petiole and leaf explants best response was observed on MS supplemented with 2.0 mg/l BAP, 1 mg/l IAA and 0.5 mg/l Kn. Petiole explants produced highest mean number of shoots/explant (22.9 ± 1.728) among the three explants when the explants were cultured on MS with 2.0 mg/l BAP, 1 mg/l IAA and 0.5 mg/l Kn. The highest frequency of root induction (100%) and mean number of roots/plantlets (11.75) were obtained on MS. The rooted plantlets were transferred for hardening following acclimatization and finally were successfully established in the field.Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 27(2): 207-216, 2017 (December)

An efficient protocol was developed for in vitro plant regeneration and multiplication through callus culture in pointed gourd. Among the explants, highest percentage of cotyledon explants (92.00%) produced callus when this explant cultured in MS medium supplemented with NAA (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mg/l) and 2, 4-D (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mg/l). The highest number of shoots per explant was observed in MS + 0.5 mg/l BAP + 0.5 mg/l NAA followed by 1.0 mg/l BAP + 0.5 mg/l NAA when inter-node derived callus cultured in MS medium. Among the explants derived calli from leaf, inter-node and cotyledon in in vitro regeneration study, inter-node appeared as the most suitable explant for callusing and plant regeneration. The best response towards root induction was achieved on half MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l NAA. The regenerated plantlets were successfully established in prepared earthen soil pot.

Ruta chalepensis L., an evergreen shrub in the citrus family, is well-known around the world for its essential oils and variety of bioactivities, indicating its potential medicinal applications. In this study, we investigated the effect of different culture conditions, including plant growth regulators, media types, pH of the medium, and carbon sources, on in vitro regeneration from nodal explants of R. chalepensis. Following 8 weeks of culture, the highest percentage of regeneration (96.3%) and maximum number of shoots (40.3 shoot/explant) with a length of 4.8 cm were obtained with Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium at pH 5.8, supplemented with 3.0% sucrose and 5.0 µM 6-Benzyladenine (BA) in combination with 1.0 µM 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). For rooting, individually harvested shootlets were transferred on ½ MS (half-strength) supplemented with IAA (indole-3-acetic acid), IBA (indole 3-butyric acid), or NAA, and the best response in terms of root induction (91.6%), number of roots (5.3), and root mean length (4.9 cm) was achieved with 0.5 µM IBA after 6 weeks. An average of 95.2 percent of healthy, in vitro regenerated plantlets survived after being transplanted into potting soil, indicating that they were effectively hardened. DNA assays (PCR-based markers) such as random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and directed amplification of minisatellite-region (DAMD) were employed to assess in vitro cultivated R. chalepensis plantlets that produced a monomorphic banding pattern confirming the genetic stability. Additionally, no changes in the flow cytometric profile of ploidy between regenerated plantlets and donor plants were detected. Regeneration of this valuable medicinal plant in vitro will open up new avenues in pharmaceutical biotechnology by providing an unconventional steadfast system for mass multiplication and might be effectively used in genetic manipulation for enhanced bioactive constituents.

Banana is a fruit crop which has high demand in Ethiopia, but its production is constrained by lack of disease free planting material with conventional propagation methods. For shoot initiation, shoot tip explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/L BAP. Similarly, MS medium supplemented with BAP at 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 mg/L in combination with IBA at 0.25 and 0.50 mg/L were used for shoot multiplication. Half- strength MS medium augmented with IBA at 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 mg/l were used for root induction. MS medium without PGRs were used as controls. Finally, hardening of the in vitro derived plantlets was carried out in green house both in the primary and secondary acclimatization stages. Results showed that the highest shoot initiation percent (93.40%), highest mean number of shoots per explant (4.67) and lesser day for shoot induction (11.00) were observed in explant cultured on MS + 1.0 mg/L BAP. With shoot multiplication, highest shooting percent (92.60%), maximum number of shoots (7.67) and highest shoot length (5.27 cm) were recorded on MS + 1.5 mg/L BAP + 0.5 mg/L IBA. The highest rooting percent (93.40%), maximum root number per shoot (7.67) and highest root length (11.00 cm) were found on a half strength MS medium + 2.0 mg/L IBA. The survival rate of plantlets were 96.00% in coco peat substrate in primary acclimatization and 97.92% in forest soil, sand and manure substrates mixed at 3:2:1 ratio in secondary acclimatization. Overall, the result showed that the PGRs type, concentrations and combinations used are effective for mass propagation of banana variety studied in this experiment.

Plant growth regulators (PGRs) namely, 2,4-D, NAA and BAP were added into Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium to observe the effect of PGRs on the growth and development of Dendrobium sp. orchid. Leaf tips of Dendrobium sp. were used as explants and inoculated on MS medium supplemented with 2, 4 D (0, 0.5, 2.5, 5, 10 mgL?1) for development of PLBs. The maximum PLBs formation (90%) and the maximum number of PLBs (16.00) were observed in 10 mgL?1 2, 4-D into MS medium after 60 days of culture. Subcultured PLBs were inoculated on MS medium supplemented with different combinations of NAA (0, 0.5, 2.5, 5 mgL?1) and BAP (0, 0.5, 2.5, 5 mgL?1) for shoot regeneration. The maximum number of shoot (11.00), the highest fresh weight (0.6233g) and the highest shoot length (3.613 cm) were observed in 0.5 mgL?1 NAA + 0.5 mgL?1 BAP after 60 days of culture. Even, the maximum number of root (4.00), the maximum root length (1.627cm) and the maximum plantlet regeneration percentage (93.33%) were observed with the combined effect of 0.5 mg NAA and 0.5 mg BAP after 60 days of culture. Finally, regenerated plantlets were transferred into half strength MS medium to obtain plants.J. Environ. Sci. & Natural Resources, 8(2): 75-78 2015

An efficient high frequency plant regeneration protocol through direct organogenesis was developed for Sevia rebaudiana. Shoot tips containing axillary buds were used as an explant and inoculated on Murashige and Skoog’s (MS) medium containing 3% (w/v) sucrose, 0.6% (w/v) agar supplemented with various concentrations of benzy-ladenine (BA), kinetin (Kn) and thidiazuron (TDZ).. BAP proved to be a better choice than Kn and the maximum number of shoots (3.75) was obtained on 2.0 mgL-1 BAP concentration. Considering all parameters, combination of BAP and Kn gave comparatively better performance than single BAP or Kn. TDZ was effective for multiple shooting. Though, 1.5 mgL-1 TDZ gave the best number of shoots (14.5), but 1.0 mgL-1 TDZ gave best performance in response to all parameters under study. The highest number of shoots was obtained in 60 mlL-1 coconut water, but 40 mlL-1 coconut water gave the best result to all parameters. Root induction was tested by using two auxins namely NAA and IBA at different concentrations (1.0, 1.5, 2.0 mgL-1) on the MS medium. IBA at 1.0 mgL-1 increased the rooting response (66.67%), number of roots (7.0) and root length (2.9 cm). Higher concentration of IBA and NAA (2.0 mgL-1) showed poor results of rooting response (33.33%).Asian J. Med. Biol. Res. March 2016, 2(1): 95-106

Canola, (Brassica napus L.) is an important crop in Australia. Large genetic variability in the Australian canola cultivars is reflected by their diverse agronomic characteristics. Further improvement using modern breeding methods will lead to the generation of better canola varieties suited for Australian conditions. Genetic engineering relies on the development of efficient methods for regeneration of viable shoots from cultured tissues, and the successful application of transformation techniques. This study reports the in vitro shoot regeneration potential from seedling explants of 7 commercial genotypes (Dunkeld, Grouse, RK7, RI25, Oscar, Rainbow, and Monty) of Australian canola. Seedling explants of these genotypes were all responsive to shoot regeneration. Total number of shoots regenerated varied significantly among the 7 genotypes. Based on the number of shoots regenerated, Rainbow was found to be the most amenable to in vitro regeneration with 55% of cotyledon explants regenerating 2.47 shoots per explants on shoot initiation medium containing 6-benzylaminopurine (3 mg/L), 1-naphthylacetic acid (0.2 mg/L), and gibberellic acid (0.01 mg/L). Normal fertile canola plants from all the 7 genotypes were regenerated. The results obtained from this study will form the basis for genetic transformation studies.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) var. Bentong is a monocotyledon plant that belongs to the Zingiberaceae family. Bentong ginger is the most popular cultivar of ginger in Malaysia, which is conventionally propagated by its rhizome. As its rhizomes are the economic part of the plant, the allocation of a large amount of rhizomes as planting materials increases agricultural input cost. Simultaneously, the rhizomes’ availability as planting materials is restricted due to the high demand for fresh rhizomes in the market. Moreover, ginger propagation using its rhizome is accompanied by several types of soil-borne diseases. Plant tissue culture techniques have been applied to produce disease-free planting materials of ginger to overcome these problems. Hence, the in vitro-induced microrhizomes are considered as alternative disease-free planting materials for ginger cultivation. On the other hand, Bentong ginger has not been studied for its microrhizome induction. Therefore, this study was conducted to optimize sucrose and plant growth regulators (PGRs) for its microrhizome induction. Microrhizomes were successfully induced in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with a high sucrose concentration (>45 g L−1). In addition, zeatin at 5–10 µM was found more effective for microrhizome induction than 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) at a similar concentration. The addition of 7.5 µM 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) further enhanced microrhizome formation and reduced sucrose’s required dose that needs to be supplied for efficient microrhizome formation. MS medium supplemented with 60 g L−1 sucrose, 10 µM zeatin and 7.5 µM NAA was the optimum combination for the microrhizome induction of Bentong ginger. The in vitro-induced microrhizomes sprouted indoors in moist sand and all the sprouted microrhizomes were successfully established in field conditions. In conclusion, in vitro microrhizomes can be used as disease-free planting materials for the commercial cultivation of Bentong ginger.
