Natural hybrids of black and grey alders can be characterised by higher resistance to biotic and abiotic stressors. The explants of alder hybrid 026 were characterised by stronger leaf development and were shown to increase germination of neighbouring alder seeds and seedling development under the stress from fungi Cladosporium cladosporioides ...

Hydrogen peroxide in micropropagation of Lilium: A comparison with a traditional methodology [PDF]
The micropropagation of Lilium longiflorum requires adequate equipment which may not be afforded by small laboratories or producers. In this work we compared traditional methodology with a protocol that included easily available elements to sterilize ...

Active Biopaste for Coral Reef Restoration
Preserving coral reefs is essential. A conductive, hardening paste for coral attachment and mineral accretion technology is developed, using a bio‐based acrylate soybean oil matrix and graphene nanoplatelets. Corals are attached with and onto the conductive paste, electricity is applied, water electrolysis is induced, and calcium is deposited at the ...

Micropropagation by tissue culture triggers differential expression of infectious endogenous Banana streak virus sequences (eBSV) present in the B genome of natural and synthetic interspecific banana plantains [PDF]
The genome of Musa balbisiana spp. contains several infectious endogenous sequences of Banana streak virus (eBSV). We have shown previously that in vitro micropropagation triggers the activation of infectious eBSOLV (endogenous sequences of Banana streak

Bioreactor Systems to Mass‐Produce the Undervalued Crop, Celosia argentea, With High Nutrient Impact
ABSTRACT Celosia argentea is an undervalued crop that shows potential for production enhancement due to elevated leaf nutrient accumulative ability. By investigating propagation using various in vitro culture systems, thidiazuron (TDZ)‐supplemented nutrient media enhanced yield from 10 plants per explant in semi‐solid medium, to 27 under continuous ...

Intraspecific Functional Trait Variation and Coordination in Schizachyrium scoparium
Understanding how traits vary within and between populations of plant species and how axes of trait variation describe trade‐offs in plant function is necessary to fully realize the utility of functional traits in ecological restoration. We investigated intraspecific trait variation among five populations of Schizachyrium scoparium (little bluestem), a

Effects of carbon source, carbon concentration and culture conditions on in vitro rooting of Pinus pinea L. microshoots [PDF]
In stone pine (Pinus pinea L.), clonal propagation via adventitious shoot formation from cotyledons has been reported before but rooting of these shoots is poor.

Potential Role and Utilization of Plant Growth Promoting Microbes in Plant Tissue Culture
Plant growth promoting microbes (PGPMs) play major roles in diverse ecosystems, including atmospheric nitrogen fixation, water uptake, solubilization, and transport of minerals from the soil to the plant.

The Australian Plant Breeder's Rights Act 1994 (Cth) and how it is used for Australian native plants
Abstract With increasing interest in intellectual property relating to plants, it is timely to assess the use of Plant Breeder's Rights (PBRs) in Australia for native plants, with tens of thousands of native plants nearly all of which are endemic and many with known uses.
