Callus was induced from protocorms of five Paphiopedilum hybrids (Paph. 03-1, Paph. 03-4, Paph. 03-5, Paph. 03-6, and Paph. 03-7) on callus induction medium [MS inorganics (412.5 mg NH4NO3 instead of 1650 mg and 475 mg KNO3 instead of 1900 mg) and vitamins plus (per liter) 0.1 g myo-inositol, 30 g sucrose, and 2.5 g Gelrite; pH 5.5] containing various concentrations and combinations of thidiazuron (TDZ; 4.5 and 45 μm) and 2,4-D (4.5 and 45 μm). Callus formation was greatest for protocorms of Paph. 03-1, Paph. 03-4, Paph. 03-6, and Paph. 03-7. Among the most competent hybrids, callus formation was greatest among protocorms induced in medium containing 4.5 μm 2,4-D and 4.5 to 45 μm TDZ. Induced calli were transferred to 100 × 15 mm petri dishes containing 25 mL of PLB and plant regeneration medium (similar to callus induction medium) containing various concentrations of either benzyladenine (BA; 0.5, 5, or 10 μm), TDZ (0.25, 2.5, or 5 μm) or no growth regulator (control). PLB and plant formation was greatest on medium containing BA.

Dalbergia sissoo Roxb. ex DC. (Sissoo) is a native forest tree species in Pakistan. Many ecological and economical uses are associated with this premier timber species, but dieback disease is of major concern. The objective of this study was to develop a protocol for in vitro regeneration of Sissoo that could serve as target material for genetic transformation, in order to improve this species. Callus formation and plantlet regeneration was achieved by culturing cotyledons, immature seeds, and mature embryos on a modified Murashige and Skoog (1962) (MS) medium supplemented with plant growth regulators. Callus induction medium containing 2.71 ?M 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 0.93 ?M kinetin produced better callus on all explants tested compared to other treatments, such as 8.88 ?M 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) and 2.69 ?M ?-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), or 2.71 ?M 2, 4-D and 2.69 ?M NAA. Shoot regeneration was best on MS medium containing 1.4 ?M NAA and 8.88 ?M BA compared to other treatments, such as 1.4 ?M NAA and 9.9 ?M kinetin, or 2.86 ?M indole-3-acetic acid and 8.88 ?M BA. Murashige and Skoog medium containing 1.4 NAA ?M and 8.88 ?M BA was better in general for regeneration regardless of callus induction medium and the type of explant used. Rooting was best on half-strength MS medium with 7.35 ?M indole-3-butyric acid. Regenerated plantlets were acclimatized for plantation in the field. Preliminary genetic transformation potential of D. sissoo was evaluated by particle bombardment of callus explants with a pUbiGus vector. The bombarded tissue showed transient Gus activity 1week after bombardment. Transformation of this woody tree is possible provided excellent regeneration protocols. The best combination for regeneration explained in this study is one of such protocols.

Triticum timopheevii Zhuk. is a tetraploid wheat that is utilized worldwide as a valuable breeding source for wheat improvement. Gene-based biotechnologies can contribute to this field; however, T. timopheevii exhibits recalcitrance and albinism in tissue cultures, making this species of little use for manipulation through genetic engineering and genome editing. This study tested various approaches to increasing in vitro somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration, while reducing the portion of albinos in cultures derived from immature embryos (IEs) of T. timopheevii. They included (i) adjusting the balance between 2,4-D and daminozide in callus induction medium; (ii) cultivation using various darkness/illumination schedules; and (iii) inclusion of additional concentrations of copper ions in the tissue culture medium. We achieved a 2.5-fold increase in somatic embryogenesis (up to 80%) when 50 mg L−1 daminozide was included in the callus induction medium together with 3 mg L−1 2,4-D. It was found that the dark cultivation for 20–30 days was superior in terms of achieving maximum culture efficiency; moreover, switching to light in under 2 weeks from culture initiation significantly increased the number of albino plants, suppressed somatic embryogenesis, and decreased the regeneration of green plants. Media containing higher levels of copper ions did not have a positive effect on the regeneration of green plants; contrarily, the elevated concentrations caused albinism in plantlets. The results and relevant conclusions of the present study might be valuable for establishing an improved protocol for the regeneration of green plants in tissue cultures of T. timopheevii.

Ionic liquids are novel compounds with unique chemical and physical properties. They can be received based on synthetic auxins like 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid or dicamba, which are commonly used hormones in microspore embryogenesis. Nevertheless, ionic liquids have not been adapted in plant in vitro culture thus far. Therefore, we studied the impact of ionic liquids on the ability to undergo microspore embryogenesis in anther cultures of wheat. Two embryogenic and two recalcitrant genotypes were used for this study. Ten combinations of ionic liquids and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid were added to the induction medium. In most cases, they stimulated induction of microspore embryogenesis and green plant regeneration more than a control medium supplemented with only 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. Two treatments were the most favorable, resulting in over two times greater efficiency of microspore embryogenesis induction in comparison to the control. The effect of breaking down the genotype recalcitrance (manifested by green plant formation) was observed under the influence of 5 ionic liquids treatments. Summing up, ionic liquids had a positive impact on microspore embryogenesis induction and green plant regeneration, increasing the efficiency of these phenomena in both embryogenic and recalcitrant genotypes. Herbicidal ionic liquids can be successfully used in in vitro cultures.

Somatic embryos were obtained from cotyledon and midrib explants of Solanum melongena L., cultivar Loda. For callus induction, medium was supplemented with different concentrations of auxin singly or in combination with BAP. The best callusing 83-85% was obtained from both of the explants cultured on MS medium containing 2.0 mgl-1NAA + 0.05 mgl-1BAP. Somatic embryogenesis and shoot regeneration was achieved after transferring the calli to MS medium supplemented with BAP, GA3, NAA and Zeatin. Cotyledon derived calli showed better performance (87%) for regeneration than that of midrib (82%) when sub cultured on MS medium having 2.0 mgl-1 Zeatin + 1.0 mgl-1 BAP. For root induction, MS + 3.0 mgl-1 IBA was proved to be better treatment for average number (14-15) and mean length (12 cm) of roots than those of other treatments.

The optimum ratios of auxin and cytokinin are necessary for callus induction and plant regeneration. This ratio is a key function involving in the promoting cell division and proliferation in tissue culture. The axillary buds of in vitro plantlets fromVetiveria nemoralisA. Camuscv. Roiet were used as explants for the callus induction experiment. These explants were cultured on Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium [1] supplemented with various combinations of auxins and cytokinins. Under this experimental study, the highest frequency of callus induction was found on MS medium supplemented with 2 mgL-1α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and 1 mgL-12-furanylmethyl-1H-purine-6-amine (kinetin) (62.5%). On the other hand the combination of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) was toxicity to this explants. All culturing explants were dead and no calli appearance. The calli derived from each medium were transferred into the same regeneration medium (MS with 1 mgL-1NAA and 2 mgL-1BAP). After culturing on regeneration medium, calli induced from the highest callus induction medium have shown high frequencies of regeneration and also shoot number per callus (58.33% and 7.1 shoots).

Significant variations were observed among six elite Bangladeshi Indica rice cultivars tested in relation to total callus induction frequency (p = 0.017), embryogenic callus formation frequency (p = 0.001) and subsequent plant regeneration responses (p = 0.005). In all the cases, embryogenic callus formation frequency was much more less than the total callus (embryogenic + non-embryonegic) formation frequency. The embryogenic calli derived from mature seed embryos produced green plants, successfully established in soil and produced fertile seeds.Key words: Indica rice, Callus induction, Plant regeneration, Genotypic variationsDOI = 10.3329/ptcb.v17i1.1122Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 17(1): 65-70, 2007 (June)

Three Bangladeshi barley genotypes viz. BARI barley?1, 3 and 6 were selected for this study to evaluate the efficiency of callus induction and plant regeneration. The effect of five doses of AgNO3 singly, and combined with amino acids (Lproline, L?glutamine) on callus induction and plant regeneration efficiency was evaluated using BARI barley?3 and 6. The maximum values of callus induction were recorded at 49.20 and 32.66% for BARI barley?6 and 3, respectively when 2.0 mg/l AgNO3 and 200 mg/l L?glutamine were added to the callus induction medium. Moreover, plant regeneration remarkably increased on MS + 1.0 mg/l BAP + 1.5 mg/l AgNO3 + 150 mg/l L?glutamine as 37.20% in BARI barley?6 and 16.13% in BARI barley?3. For rooting AgNO3 singly affect positively, whereas negative influence was observed in combinations with any amino acids. However, by using AgNO3 and amino acids, around < 4, < 27 and < 5 fold increase in callus induction were obtained. Regeneration and rooting were also found to increase considerably.Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 25(1): 37-50, 2015 (June)
