Objective: To study and improve the tissue culture technology of Panax notoginseng.
Method: Using the callus of leaf blade and leafstalk of P. notogingseng as explants, MS + 2, 4-D 1.5 mg x L(-1) as basal medium, the formation of asexual embryos was induced by added LFS, BA, KT or ZT 0.5 mg x L(-1), and cultured in dark. It cultured then in 2000 lx of illumination for 10-12 h x d(-1) to induce the asexual embryos germinating and developing to be the regenerated-plantlet.
Result And Conclusion: Only the medium added with LFS could induce the formation of asexual embryos, and made it developed to be regenerated-plantlet. The inducing ratio of asexual embryos reached about 85%, and 30% of asexual embryos could grow and develop as robust regenerated-plantlets.

Older mothers produce smaller eggs without compromising offspring quality: a study of a thelytokous mite predator (Acari: Phytoseiidae).
Bull Entomol Res

School of Biological Sciences, University of Auckland, Auckland 1072, New Zealand.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigated how maternal age affects the life history traits of a predatory mite species that reproduces asexually, specifically focusing on characteristics like egg size and offspring development.* -
- Researchers found that older female mites produced smaller eggs, but this did not significantly impact offspring developmental duration, body size, fecundity, or lifespan.* -
- The results suggest that the offspring might have compensatory mechanisms to maintain their performance despite the negative influence of maternal age on egg size, shedding light on the reproductive strategies of asexually reproducing species.*

Article Synopsis
- - Aphids reproduce quickly and asexually, and understanding the molecular processes involved requires precise protein detection methods, like immunostaining.
- - The research aims to optimize proteinase K (PK) digestion to enhance antibody access to various stages of pea aphid embryos and salivary glands.
- - Detailed protocols for tissue dissection and PK treatment are proposed to improve the accuracy of protein signal detection in aphids.

A novel genomic map of the apogamous gametophyte of the fern Dryopteris affinis unlocks oldest hindrance with this complex plant group, to gain insight into evo-devo approaches. The gametophyte of the fern Dryopteris affinis ssp. affinis represents a good model to explore the molecular basis of vegetative and reproductive development, as well as stress responses.

Reciprocal in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intravaginal culture (IVC) are two technologies that allow same-sex female couples to jointly contribute biologically to a pregnancy. This systematic review aimed to synthesize the clinical outcomes of each method including live birth rate, clinical pregnancy rate, embryo quality, and perinatal complications. A dual-reviewer protocol identified eight studies on reciprocal IVF and ten studies on IVC.

Article Synopsis
- Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is key for asexual propagation and genetic improvement of forest trees, but it faces challenges like initiation issues, low maturation efficiency, and abnormal embryo development.
- Recent research shows that small molecules from animal stem cell studies can enhance plant regeneration in conifers, offering a new way to tackle SE challenges without genetic engineering.
- These small molecules, such as redox substances and epigenetic regulators, provide dynamic, easy-to-use solutions that can target multiple factors simultaneously, making them promising for improving SE systems.
