Identification of heat-tolerant mungbean genotypes through morpho-physiological evaluation and key gene expression analysis.

Mungbean plays a significant role in global food and nutritional security. However, the recent drastic rise in atmospheric temperature has posed an imminent threat to mungbean cultivation. Therefore, this study investigates the growth and physiological changes of 87 mungbean germplasm lines under heat stress.

A Flow Cytometry-Based Assessment of the Genomic Size and Ploidy Level of Wild Species in India.

Unlabelled: The genome size variation is an important attribute in evolutionary and species characterization. L. is regarded as one of the taxonomically complicated genera within the order Zingiberales, with more than 75 species from wild seeded to seedless cultivars that may be diploid, triploid or tetraploid.

Histological and molecular insights in to in vitro regeneration pattern of Xanthosoma sagittifolium.

A study on the effect of various phytohormonal combinations on in vitro propagation of Cocoyam [Xanthosoma sagittifolium (L.) Schott] was conducted to develop an improved and efficient in vitro regeneration protocol for its mass multiplication. Histological analysis to understand the in vitro regeneration pattern and genetic fidelity assessment of regenerated plants were also carried out.

Transcriptome Profiling during Sequential Stages of Cryopreservation in Banana ( AAA cv Borjahaji) Shoot Meristem.

Cryopreservation approaches have been implemented in gene banks as a strategy to back up plant genetic resource collections that are vegetatively propagated. Different strategies have been employed to effectively cryopreserve plant tissue. There is little information on the cellular processes and molecular adjustments that confer resilience to the multiple stresses imposed during a cryoprotocol.
