Foram feitos estudos anatômicos sobre a organização e desenvolvimento dos meristemas axilares ortotrópicos de segmentos caulinares de Araucaria angustifolia cultivados in vitro, em meio básico de Murashigue & Skoog , sem reguladores de crescimento. Os resultados mostraram que estes meristemas formam àpices caulinares normais, razão porque pode-se esperar que plantas normais venham a ser obtidas a partir dos mesmos. Abstract Anatomy and aspects of the orthotropic axillary meristems organization and development of Araucaria angustifolia seedlings stem segments cultivated in Murashigue & Skoog’s basal medium without growth regulators were earried out. Provided that results showed normal shoots with normal apical meristem were developed from axillaxy bud rneristems, normal plantets and plants can be expected from in vitro stem segments cultivated on the cited conditions.

Stem segments with 3-5 leaf axils, excised from the upper portion of the mainstem of 2-year-old hoop pine (Araucaria cunninghamii Aiton ex D. Don) seedlings, produced orthotropic buds from the concealed axillary meristems when cultured on a basal medium (BM) of half-strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) inorganic salts, the medium level of growth factors and amino acids of de Fossard, 20 g L sucrose and 6.5 g/L agar. This procedure was also successful with A. balansae, A. bidwillii, A. colurnnaris, A. hunsteinri, A. luxurians, A. montana, A. rulei, A. scopulorum and Agathis robusta and with stem segments from orthotropic coppice shoots of juvenile morphology collected from the stumps of 20-year old hoop pines felled near ground level. The hoop pine explants were highly sensitive to cytokinin; 1 μM and 10 μM 6-benzylaminopurine caused the formation of distorted buds and total inhibition of bud development respectively. Lofier concentrations (0.001-0.1 μM ) did not noticeably influence bud formation or development. A low rate of multiplication was induced by reculturing the stem segments after the excision of the initial shoots. New buds developed in the leaf axils of that part of the initial shoot which remained attached to the primary stem explant. Shoots derived from seedling and coppice cultures of hoop pine and seedling cultures of Agathis robusta rooted in vitro on BM + 0.1-10.0 μM indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), but with only 5-20% success. Up to 80% rooting was obtained if both hoop pine shoot types (i. e. from seedling and coppice cultures) were cultured on modified BM (quarter strength MS salts, 10 μM IBA plus no agar) for 2 weeks, before being transferred to a mixture of non-sterile peat and perlite or vermiculite and perlite, maintained under a high humidity (90-95%). Plantlets were subsequently transferred to normal glasshouse conditions and then to the field with less than 5% mortality. Thus hoop pine can be added to the relatively small number of conifers for which the capacity to micropropagate juvenile and mature plants and successfully establish their clones in the field has been demonstrated.

This long term study demonstrates for the first time that it is possible to propagate embryogenic Vigna trilobata and to subsequently initiate the differentiation of embryos into complete plantlets. Initiation of callus was possible on 2,4-D. Somatic embryos differentiated on modified MS basal nutrient medium with 1.0 mg/l  of 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/l  of Kn. Sustained cell division resulted in globular and heart shape stages of somatic embryos. Transfer of embryos on to a fresh modified MS basal medium with 0.5 mg/l of Kn and 0.5 mg/l of GA3 helped them to attain maturation and germination. However, the propagation of cells, as well as the differentiation of embryos, were inhibited by a continuous application of these growth regulators. For this reason, a long period on medium lacking these growth regulators was necessary before the differentiation of embryos occurred again. The consequences for improving the propagation of embryogenic cultures in Vigna species are discussed. Key words: Pasture  legume, Vigna trilobata, Globular, Heart shape, somatic embryogenesis D.O.I. 10.3329/ptcb.v19i1.4990 Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 19(1): 89-99, 2009 (June)

Abstract Passiflora xishuangbannaensis (Passifloraceae) is endemic to a few sites of Mengyang nature reserve in Yunnan, Xishuangbanna and less than 40 individuals have been recorded. Nine Passiflora species are endemic to Yunnan with most species occurring in South America, making P. xishuangbannaensis highly significant and emblematic to the conservation work in the region. This study is designed to provide the first protocol for in vitro organogenesis and plant regeneration for ex situ conservation and reintroduction for an Asian Passiflora species. Using internodes, petioles and tendrils we optimize calli formation and root elongation using several plant growth regulators, individually or in combination. We also assess the genetic stability of regenerated cells. The maximum callus induction and shoot bud differentiation were both achieved on half Murashige and Skoog basal medium supplemented with 4.44 µM 6-Benzylaminopurine and 1.08 µM 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid. The best rooting was achieved from 30 days old, regenerated shoots on half Murashige and Skoog basal medium supplemented with 1.08 µM 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid. Micropropagated plants were subjected to inter simple sequence repeat markers analyses. Collectively, 86 bands were generated from 6 primers of which 12 bands were polymorphic, showing genetic variation between the regenerated plantlets and the original plant. Response to plant growth regulators was more specific than most other studies using South American species, which could be explained by the morphological and physiological differences between South American and Asian Passiflora species

Growth regulators especially auxins and cytokinins are critical for plant in-vitro regeneration. The effect of these plant growth regulators on in-vitro propagation of Saccharum officinarum L (Sugarcane) was investigated. In vitro response of two different varieties of sugarcane (NCS 005 and NCS 008) to Plant Growth Regulators was obtained in this study. Formation of buds was obtained on shoot apical meristem when cultured on MS (Murashige and Skoog) medium supplemented with 0.1mg/l BAP (6-Benzylaminopurine). After two weeks of initiation, regenerated meristem was inoculated into MS (Murashige and Skoog) fortified with different concentrations and combination of cytokinins. Shoot multiplication was optimal on 0.5mg/l BAP + 0.25 mg/l Kin(Kinetin) for NCS 005 variety while for NCS 008 variety, no significant (P≥0.05) difference was observed between 1.5mg/l BAP and 1.5mg/l BAP +0.5mg/l Kin. The best root induction for in vitro derived shoots was obtained on 1.0 mg/l NAA (Naphthalene acetic acid) and 2.0 mg/l IBA( Indole butyric acid) for both varieties of sugarcane within ten days of culture transfer. Successfully established plantlets showed excellent growth response when weaned under regulated green house conditions.

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are new class of hormones noted to perform multiplephysiological functions in plant growth and development and have the potentialof influencing cell and tissue growth in vitro. Many naturally occurring BRs,including brassinolide, have been discovered, their mode of action and their growthpromoting activities on plants. The use of brassinolide in in vitro propagation isnew. The Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium was used as basal medium. Plantgrowth regulators - IAA, BA and BR - were added to the medium. The study usedthe Completely Randomized Design (CRD) in factorial with three replications.The cultivar of banana and plant growth substances affected the number of budsproduced, shoot length, root length, and stem girth. The interaction of thesetwo factors (cultivar x PGR) influenced the number of buds produced in vitroand the shoot length of the meriplants. The study shows that brassinolide has aninfluence on shoot induction, proliferation, and elongation of bananas in in vitro propagation.Keywords: Agriculture, in vitro propagation, induction, proliferation, elongation, apical meristem, plant growth regulators, cultivars, Isabela, Philippines

A micropropagation system to obtain plants from inflorescences of pampas grass (Cortaderia selloana Schult. `Pumila') was developed. Factors examined included developmental stage of inflorescence cultured and growth regulator combinations and concentrations that support explant establishment, shoot regeneration, and rooting. Immature inflorescences ≈300 mm long formed many shoot primordia when initially cultured on Murashige and Skoog basal medium containing 4.5 μm 2,4-D and 8.9 μm BA and subcultured to medium with 0.4 μm 2,4-D and 4.4 μm BA. Thereafter, monthly transfer to a medium without growth regulators yielded about three shoots per tube per month for more than 6 months. Most shoots rooted spontaneously and were easily hardened to greenhouse conditions. Field-tested plants flowered within 2 years and nearly all appeared identical to the parent cultivar. With this technique, several thousand plants can be obtained from a single inflorescence in 1 year. Chemical names used: N -(phenylmethyl)-1 H -purine-6-amine (BA); (2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetic acid (2,4-D).

Multiple adventitious shoot formed from internodal segments of Cephaelis ipecacuanha cultured 25 days on Gamborg basal medium (GAMBORG et al., 1968) supplemented with 6.66mM 6-benzylaminopurine there was a maximum of nine shoots per segment and an average of five shoots per segment formed. The presence of gibberellic acid in the subculture media promoted shoot elongation in all treatments. The shoots attained 3cm in height and rooting of 100% after 35 days of culturing upon Murashige and Skoog's basal medium (MS), added with 4.92mM indole-3-butyric acid, 0.87m gibberellic acid and 0.1% activated charcoal. Further growth was accelerated after the transfer to 1/2 MS without growth regulators. Rooted plantlets transferred to potting soil could be successfully established.

A very efficient adventitious regeneration (shoot organogenesis) system for cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.) leaves was developed. A basal medium consisting of Anderson's rhododendron salts and Murashige and Skoog's (MS) organics, supplemented with 10.0 μm thidiazuron (TDZ) and 5.0 μm 2ip, was effective for adventitious regeneration from leaves for the five cranberry cultivars tested: `Early Black', `Pilgrim', `Stevens', `Ben Lear', and `No. 35'. Parameters examined included: 1) varying combinations of three plant growth regulators (TDZ, 2ip, and NAA); 2) explant orientation (adaxial vs. abaxial side in contact with the medium); and 3) leaf position relative to the apical meristem from the source plant. Cultivars varied in regeneration frequency, but cultivar × growth regulator interaction was nonsignificant. With optimal treatment conditions, regeneration occurred on more than 95% of the explants, with `Early Black' and `Pilgrim' producing as many as 100 shoot meristems per explant. At all concentrations tested, NAA (as low as 0.1 μm) increased callus formation and significantly reduced regeneration. Emerging adventitious shoots were always observed on the adaxial side of the leaves regardless of explant orientation on the medium. Regeneration was much greater when the abaxial side was in contact with the medium, and was not related to leaf position on the source plants. Elongation of adventitious shoots began ≈2 weeks after transfer to the basal medium without growth regulators. Cuttings of elongated shoots rooted 100% both in vitro in the basal medium and ex vitro in shredded sphagnum moss. The high regeneration efficiency achieved by using this system will be very useful in the application of techniques, such as Agrobacterium- and particle bombardment-mediated transformation. Chemical names used: 1-phenyl-3-(1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-yl) urea (thidiazuron, TDZ); N6-(γ-γ-dimethyallylamino) purine (2ip); α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA).
