Korean pine is the dominant species of Korean pine forests. It is an economically valuable species that yields oil, high-quality timber and nuts, and it offers great prospects for further development. Complete regenerated plants of Korean pine were obtained via somatic embryogenesis using megagametophytes as the explant. The seeds of 27 families of Korean pine were collected to induce embryogenic lines. We compared the effects of explant collection time, family and medium components (concentrations of sucrose, plant growth regulators and acid-hydrolyzed casein) on embryogenic lines induction. The effects of plant growth regulators and L-glutamine contents on the proliferation and maturation of embryogenic cell lines were studied, and the germinating ability of different cell lines was evaluated. The embryogenic lines induction percentage of Korean pine reached 33.33%. When 4.52 μmol·L−1 2,4-D and 2.2 μmol·L−1 6-BA were added to the medium of embryogenic lines proliferation, the ability of embryo maturation was the best (cell line 001#-100 was 135.71·g−1 fresh weight). Adding 1–1.5g L−1 L-glutamine to the proliferation medium can improve the ability of embryo maturation (cell line 001#-100 was 165.63·g−1 fresh weight). The germination percentage of the three cell lines tested was significant, and the highest was 66%. We report on successful regeneration and cryopreservation methods for somatic embryos of Korean pine. This technology could be used to propagate the excellent germplasm resources of Korean pine and to establish multi-varietal forestry.

The influence of stage of fruit development and plant growth regulators on somatic embryogenesis and the relation of cultivar response on somatic embryogenesis and subsequent plant development have been investigated in eight cultivars of pecan [Carya illinoensis (Wangenh.) C. Koch]. Explants from the micropylar region of the ovule were more embryogenic when removed from fruits in the liquid endosperm stage than were intact ovules from less-mature fruits or from cotyledonary segments of more-mature fruits. Explants conditioned on medium containing auxin alone or auxin + cytokinin produced more somatic embryos than medium containing cytokinin alone. Under the conditions of this study, frequency of embryogenesis, as well as the germination of somatic embryos leading to plant development, indicated appreciable variation among cultivars. Plant development was greatest by far from somatic embryos of `Schley' than other cultivars studied.

Lulo is a species of great importance to the fruticulture of Colombia, but has significant phytosanitary problems that require an aggressive breeding program oriented toward the production of genotypes with tolerance to phytopathogens. These programs need to establish highly efficient mass plant propagation protocols, such as somatic embryogenesis. This study focused on research on the somatic embryogenesis of lulo using kinetin, naphthalene acetic acid-NAA (Plant Growth Regulators, PGRs), and different sucrose concentrations in a MS medium. Two lulo varieties, Solanum quitoense var. septentrionale and S. quitoense var. quitoense, and two explant types (hypocotyl and cotyledon) were used, incubated in dark conditions at 25±2°C. The highest production percentage of the embryos was obtained when 50 mM of NAA were added to the medium with sucrose (50.0 and 263.1 mM) for the two explant types used. In lulo with spines, the highest percentage of embryonic structures (50%) was observed with cotyledonary leaf explants and 50 mM of NAA ; while in the spineless lulo, the embryonic structures were observed in the same type of explant with 50 mM of NAA + 263.1 mM of sucrose (32%).

A one-time application of fish emulsion 2 days before the application of plant growth regulators (PGR) showed an overriding effect on the growth of pansies. Blue/blotch shades of `Medallion' pansies were placed on a constant feed program of 100 ppm Peat Lite 20N–10P–20K, with half of the pansies receiving an additional one-time supplement of fish emulsion. PGRs and rates included B-Nine, 0.5% (used as the control); uniconazole, 2 and 4 ppm; and paclobutrazol, 16 and 25 ppm. Parameters taken included plant height, top fresh weight, top dry weight, days to anthesis, and visual appearance. Significant differences were noted in the plants receiving the supplement for plant dry weight, plant height, and visual appearance. Plants receiving fish emulsion grew taller and denser than those on constant feed alone despite the effects of the PGRs.

This research was conducted to study the effect of some plant growth regulators on in vitro shoots multiplication of stevia (Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni). The experiments included tests of various combinations of KIN with IBA or IAA in the shoot multiplication. Results indicated that KIN at 1.0 mg. L-1 plus 0.3 mg. L-1 of IBA produced the highest number of shoots (3.5 shoots) while KIN at 1.5 mg. L-1 plus IBA at 1.0 mg. L-1 produced the lowest shoot length (1.14 cm).  Hormone free medium produced the highest rate of the leaves number reached 28.56 leaves. KIN and IBA interaction increased fresh and dry weight significantly.   Treatment contained 2.0 mg -1 KIN plus 0.3 mg. L-1 IBA produced the highest fresh weight (1.739 g) while 0.5 mg. L-1 KIN and 0.3 mg. L-1 IBA produced the highest dry weight (0.822 g). As for the effect of interaction between the IAA and KIN it was significant in the number of shoots formed. Interaction between 1.0 mg. L-1 KIN with 0.1 mg. L-1IAA produced the highest number of shoots (3.8 shoots). Shoots length reached 8.10 cm in the media with 0.3 mg. L-1 IAA only. The highest fresh weight (1.267 g) was achieved with the interaction between 1.0 mg. L-1 KIN and 0.3 mg. L-1 IAA while 0.5 mg. L-1IAA without KIN produced the highest dry weight reached 0.138 g.  Shoots multiplication was improved by incorporation of the cytokinin TDZ in culture media. Shoots number, fresh and dry weights were increased significantly by adding 0.05 mg. L-1 of TDZ at present of 0.3 mg. L-1 of IBA giving 6.6 shoots, 0.974 g and 0.144 g respectively while shoots length decreased significantly as media without TDZ produced the highest shoots length reached 9.32 cm. The above results can adopt for the successful in vitro shoot multiplication of Stevia plants.

<p class="IsiAbstrakIndo"><em>Justicia gendarussa </em>Burm.f., a medicinal plant, is Acanthaceae that has many functions. Furthermore, the compounds in gendarussa must be produced in high quantity and quality by applying callus culture method. Accordingly, it is important to study the effects of plant growth regulators (2,4-D, IBA, and BAP) on callus induction of gendarussa leaves. This research design utilized a factorial design with two factors (2,4-D and IBA: 0.5, 1, 1.5 mg/L and BAP: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 mg/L). The experiment consisted of 24 treatments, each of which was repeated 3 times. Observation was carried out in 6 weeks. Data on the time of callus formation, percentage of explants formed callus, and callus morphology were analyzed descriptively,while data on fresh and dry weight were analyzed by Two-Way ANOVA (<span>α</span> = 0.5). Interestingly, the results showed that various concentration of plant growth regulators (2,4-D, IBA, and BAP) affected callus induction from leaf explants of gendarussa. We concluded that the most optimal treatment combination of concentration of plant growth regulators in inducing callus from leaf explants of gendarussa is 1.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 2 mg/L BAP with a relatively long period of callus formation at the earliest, i.e. on day 5, 2.247 g of fresh weight, 0.108 gof dry weight, white callus translucent, and friable. <span lang="EN-GB">Moreover, t</span>he optimum treatment will be used to produce secondary metabolite and seed s<span lang="EN-GB">y</span>nthetic by cell suspension culture.</p>
