Abstract Premise The effective ex situ conservation of exceptional plants, whether in living collections or cryo‐collections, requires more resources than the other species. Because their expertise with rare botanical gardens are well positioned to lead this effort, but a well‐developed strategy clear understanding needed. Methods Grant funding was obtained from Institute Museum and Library Services support three‐year project on cryobanking, provide smaller grants 10 for one‐year projects...
ABSTRACT Conventional soil and hydroponic growing systems have inherent differences in water nutritional availability. These may affect plant physiological development biochemistry. The objective of this study was to evaluate lettuce (Lactica sativa) cv. ‘Crocantela’development either a system or through analyses vegetative growth; chlorophyll abundance; sugar starch content. We evaluated the dry mass (DM), fresh (FM), number leaves (LN), stomatal density contents chlorophyll, carotenoids,...
Worldwide, oak species are threatened with extinction due to habitat loss, pathogens, and changing fire regimes. Ex situ conservation through tissue culture may protect the remaining genetic diversity of Quercus dumosa, or coastal sage scrub oak, from further loss. We designed three basal salt formulations based on mineral composition shoot tips first leaves mature Q. dumosa explored carbohydrate source, stress-mitigating compounds, plant growth regulator concentrations develop a method...
Little is known about the reproduction of Dendrocalamus asper because it flowers only every 100 to 120 years. In present work we describe some reproductive features this bamboo and characterise pollen at various developmental stages. Number grains ovules per flower, pollen/ovule ratio, in vitro twinning grain viability vivo were evaluated different stages floral development identified. Further, performed a morphological analysis androecium development. Seven distinct flower identified; four...
Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is a complex, multifactorial model of molecular, biochemical, physiological and developmental steps plant embryogenesis.This regenerative route arises from single totipotent somatic cell that has dedifferentiated or redifferentiated into an embryonic state.Additionally, it comprises high performance in vitro system for both the mass clonal propagation elite genotype and/or endangered germplasm.Following coordinated subsequent divisions, changes cellular contents...
As plantas cultivadas em sistemas a campo ou hidroponia apresentam grandes diferencas relacao disponibilidade hidrica e nutricional, afetando o ciclo de desenvolvimento, metabolico, anatomia dos orgaos desempenho das devido mudancas no comportamento fisiologico bioquimico. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar alface da cultivar Crocantela ( Lactuca sativa L.) sistema hidroponico vasos, atraves analises parâmetros crescimento fisiologicos relacionados aos processos fotossinteticos.
