Article Synopsis
  • A protocol was developed for the efficient micropropagation of Canna indica L. using rhizome explants from aseptic seedlings, leading to high regeneration rates in a specific nutrient medium.
  • The ideal conditions included MS medium with 3.0 mg/L BAP and 1.5 mg/L NAA for shoot and root production, and 7.0 mg/L BAP for multiple shoot regeneration.
  • After two months of greenhouse acclimatization, the plantlets demonstrated a 75% survival rate, with ultrastructural studies indicating minor developmental differences between in vitro and in vivo specimens.

Article Synopsis
  • Stem explants of Citrus assamensis showed the highest success rate in tissue culture when cultured in MS media with 1.5 mg L(-1) NAA and 2.0 mg L(-1) BAP.
  • The optimal conditions for regeneration included adding 30 g L(-1) sucrose, maintaining a pH of 5.8, and using a 16-hour light/8-hour dark cycle for shoot growth, while 24 hours of darkness was better for callus formation.
  • Minor morphological and anatomical changes were noted in in vitro plants, but these are expected to normalize as the plants adapt to their natural environment.

In vitro direct regeneration of Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn. was successfully achieved from immature explants (yellow plumule) cultured on a solid MS media supplemented with combinations of 0.5 mg/L BAP and 1.

Plant tissues such as somatic embryos, apical shoot tips, axillary shoot buds, embryogenic calli, and protocom-like bodies are potential micropropagules that have been considered for creating synthetic seeds. In the present study, 3-5 mm microshoots of Oryza sativa L. Cv.
