The production of micropropagated plants in plant-tissue-culture laboratories and nurseries is the most important method for propagation many economic plants. Micropropagation based on tissue-culture technology involves large-scale propagation, as it allows multiplication a huge number true-to-type propagules very short time limited space, well all year round, regardless climate. However, applying techniques commercial may face lot obstacles or troubles that could result from technical,...
Artificial seeds are artificially encapsulated somatic embryos (usually) or other vegetative parts such as shoot buds, cell aggregates, auxiliary any micropropagules which can be sown a seed and converted into plant under in vitro vivo conditions. An improved artificial production technique is considered valuable alternate technology of propagation many commercially important crops significant method for mass elite genotypes. The clones multiplied by tissue culture distributed could useful...
It is urgent that we increase global food production to support population growth. Food requires significant resources, amongst them water and energy. Therefore, any losses of or other agricultural products also means a waste energy resources. A amount these occurs during the postharvest stage, primarily processing storage. This considered avoidable waste. The water-energy-waste nexus (WEW), its relationship production, needs be investigated from circular bioeconomy lens. Furthermore,...
Strawberry production presents special challenges due the plants' shallow roots. The rooting stage of strawberry is a crucial period in this important crop. Several amendments have been applied to support growth and strawberry, particularly fertilizers, overcome problems. Therefore, current investigation was carried out evaluate application biological nanofertilizers promoting rooting. treatments included applying two different produced biologically, nano-selenium (i.e., 25, 50, 75, 100 mg...
The production of in vitro banana transplants has become an important practice the global production. Proper and enough nutrients are needed for particularly during acclimatization period. To avoid environmental problem resulting from chemical fertilizers, nanofertilizers Se Cu were separately applied banana. biological form nano-Cu (50 100 mg L−1) nano-Se (25, 50, 75, studied on acclimatized under greenhouse conditions. Both enhanced growth transplant by 10.9 12.6% dry weight after...
Phytoremediation is an environmentally friendly and effective method of reducing contaminating ions to very low levels. In this study, the effects different concentrations cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), lead (Pb) on vegetative growth chemical biochemical compositions Salix mucronata as well potential for phytoextraction these metals by plant organs were investigated. S. had highest survival percentage (100%) in presence CdCl 2 , CuCl Pb acetate up 80, 200, 850 mg·kg −1 soil, respectively. A...
Bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, is highly diverse and the identification of new sources resistance for incorporation multiple complementary genes in same cultivar best strategy durable stable resistance. The objective this study was to screen seven accessions cultivated eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) 40 from 12 wild relatives two virulent R. solanacearum strains (Pss97 Pss2016; phylotype I, race 1, biovar 3). resistant or moderately were further evaluated with Pss97 a...
Agricultural wastes are considered residues resulted from the agricultural production and after harvesting fruit vegetable their processing, agro-industrial by/co-products grapes, banana, olives milk processing. These may represent a treasure when they turning into valuable applications (i.e., composting, biochar, removing pollutants environment organic fertilizers) or burn in open fields causing some environmental problems such as soil degradation air pollution. The landfill disposal...
Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacerum is one of the most economically and destructive eggplant diseases in many tropical subtropical areas world. The objectives this study were to develop interspecific hybrids, as potential rootstocks, between (Solanum melongena) bacterial resistant line EG203 four wild accessions (S. incanum UPV1, S. insanum UPV2, S.anguivi UPV3, sisymbriifolium UPV4), evaluate hybrids along with parents for resistance strains Pss97 Pss2016. was crossed...
• Copper sulfate proved effective for eliminating endophytic bacteria in Philodendron selloum vitro cultures. Moderate level of copper did not induce growth abnormalities and was optimal shoot multiplication P. selloum. RAPD molecular marker revealed genetic fidelity the regenerated plantlets at all levels sulfate. Endophytic microorganisms is a major constrain to establishment tissue culture plants. We report use (CuSO 4 .5H 2 O) eliminate Contaminated shoots were cultured onto Murashige...
Hydroponics is a promising method for cultivation of saffron ( Crocus sativus ). In this study, corms were sprouted using gradual decrease in air temperature, and they cultivated hydroponically either perlite or volcanic rock 24 weeks. A nutrient solution was supplied an ebb-and-flow system continuous immersion. First blooming observed 29 days after transplantation. Among flowering traits, only the stigma length significantly influenced by type hydroponic system. Saffron plants displayed...
Gypsophila paniculata L. is one of the most important commercial cut flowers worldwide. The plant sterile and propagated mainly by in vitro culture techniques. However, hyperhydricity hinders its micropropagation increases mortality during ex acclimatization. Hyperhydric shoots G. were proliferated from nodal explants on MS medium without growth regulators that contained 30 g L-1 sucrose, gelled with 6.0 agar. Medium components environmental conditions optimized to revert microshoots develop...
The pollution of aquatic ecosystems is an issue facing many countries all over the world and may result in issues such as eutrophication coastal zones. Managing this a real challenge. current study focuses on investigation identification environmental characteristics, including sediments, waters, seaweed, seven eutrophicated locations along Mediterranean coast Alexandria (Egypt). Different ecological risk assessment bioaccumulation factors were calculated order to identify probable source...
The Kingdom of Plantae is considered the main source human food, and includes several edible medicinal plants, whereas mushrooms belong to fungi. There are a lot similar characteristics between higher but there also many differences among them, especially from health point view. absences both chlorophyll content ability form their own food plants. attributes found in plants represented nutritional activities. findings this review have number practical implications. A applications different...
Microbial contamination is a common problem that causes significant losses in plant micropropagation systems. The present study reports on the identification and control of bacterial contaminants banana vitro cultures. Twelve isolates belonging to Bacillus pumilus (S2), subtilis (R2 M4), Geobacillus stearothermophilus (S1, S3, S4, P2, M3 R3) Paenibacillus spp. (P1, R1 M2) were identified by sequencing 16S rRNA, gyrA or gyrB genes. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed with disk...
African violet (Saintpaulia ionantha H. Wendl) is one of the most easily and commonly tissue-cultured ornamental plants.
