An assessment of in vitro lead (Pb) bioaccumulation of Dianthus chinensis L. (Chinese pink).

Heavy metals (HM) also known as potentially toxic elements (PTEs), are well-known environmental pollutants, among which lead (Pb) is a widespread and hazardous soil contaminant. Its removal from soil sediments is often difficult to achieve. In this study, in vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the bioaccumulation capability of Dianthus chinensis L.

Alteration of media enables efficient in vitro cloning of mature L. (Ceylon olive): a commercially important fruit tree.

is a fruit tree able to propagate through conventional vegetative means to a limited extent restricts its wide cultivation by the farmers. In the present report, we have developed an efficient in vitro propagation protocol using mature nodal explants from a 17-year-old tree for the first time with 6.6 shoots/culture.

Effective reversal of hyperhydricity leading to efficient micropropagation of L.

Unlabelled: The effective reversion of hyperhydricity (HH) in L. facilitated efficient in vitro production of hyperhydricity-free plantlets. Under routine sub-culture practice, the problem of HH arises after third sub-culture in agar (0.

Influence of polyamines on hyperhydricity reversion and its associated mechanism during micropropagation of China pink ( L.).

Hyperhydricity (HH) is a physiological disorder that frequently occurs in plant tissue cultures, affecting healthy growth and development of clonal plants. The primary cultures raised in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 2.5 µM N-benzyladenine (BA) produced normal microshoot (6.

The efficiency of Cytochrome P450 gene-based markers in accessing genetic variability of drumstick (Moringa oleifera Lam.) accessions.

Drumstick (Moringa oleifera Lam.) is an important vegetable as well as forage crop of arid and semi-arid zones of the tropics. The leaves and pods of the plant are rich sources of minerals and vitamins.
