Regeneration of Plantlets from various Explants of Tetraploid watermelon

Journal of Biology Agriculture and Healthcare (2013)

Misbah Rasheed Muhammad Jafar Jaskani Mehwish Rasheed Muhammad Shahid Iqbal Syed Zia-ul-Hasan

Micropropagation of tetraploid watermelon is important to cope with high cost of seed. Seeds of tetraploid watermelon were grown in vitro to raise seedlings. Hypocotyl and cotyledonary explants and media supplemented with plant growth regulators (BAP and NAA) was explored for callus induction and organogenesis. Data was collected for callus, shoot and root induction. Maximum callus induction was observed at BAP 5 mgL -1 (76.66%) from cotyledon and (73.33%) from hypocotyls explant. The callus induced from different explants was sub-cultured on the shoot regeneration medium. Higher shoot induction (96.66%) was observed from cotyledon and hypocotyl explant (76.66%) on MS + 1.0 mgL -1 BAP + 0.2 mgL -1 NAA with maximum number (6.3) of shoot per explant and average shoot length 4.5 cm. Among different types (NAA and IAA) and concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.7, 1.0 mgL -1 ) of auxins investigated for root induction, maximum frequency of rooting was observed in 0.1 mgL -1 NAA while no root formation was observed at higher levels of auxin (1.0 mgL -1 ). Similarly in case of number of roots per shoot maximum root (4.3) was obtained on MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mgL -1 NAA. Key Words: Regeneration, Explant, Tetraploid, Water Mellon

Direct plant regeneration from leaves of Prunus rootstock GF-677 (Prunus amygdalus × P. persica).

Pakistan Journal of Botany (2010)

Syed Zia-ul-Hasan Touqeer Ahmad I. A. Hafiz Azhar Hussain

The effect of two culture media viz., Murashige & Skoog (MS) and Lepoivre (LP) supplemented with 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 mg l -1 benzylaminopurine (BAP) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0 mg l -1 naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) was examined on shoot regeneration from leaves of Prunus rootstock GF-677. LP medium was found to be superior producing 29.85% regenerated shoot, 3.39 shoot number and 3.43 cm shoot length whereas MS medium produced 20.88% regenerated shoot, 1.90 shoot number and 2.28 cm shoot length. Moreover, LP medium produced longer and healthy shoots whereas stunted and yellow shoots were observed on MS medium. Regarding the interaction between media and growth regulators, the best interaction was found in LP medium supplemented with 2.0 mg l -1 BAP and 0.75 mg l -1 NAA (T11) resulting in 55% regenerated shoots, 4.28 shoot number and 4.25 cm shoot length while 40% regenerated shoots, 3.20 numbers of shoots and 3.80 cm shoot length were observed on MS medium with the same combination of cytokinins and auxins. As far as rooting is concerned, the effect of two iron chelating agents viz., ethylenediamine di-o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (Fe-EDDHA) and ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (Fe-EDTA) was evaluated at concentration of 100, 200 and 300 mg l -1 . Fe-EDDHA proved to be superior chelating agent producing 95% rooting percentage, 3.40 root number and 6.88 cm root length at 200 mg l -1 (T5). Conversely Fe-EDTA produced about 40% rooting percentage, 1.83 root number and 2.57 cm root length at 100 mg l -1 (T1). Chlorotic and small roots were observed with Fe-EDTA while strong
