Background: Promising specific growth regulators are employed in the tissue cultures of various bamboo species. Specific natural hardening mixtures support the acclimatization and adaptation of bamboo under protected cultivation. Results: The growth regulators like 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D), Naphthaleneacetic Acid (NAA), Thidiazuron (TDZ), 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP), Kinetin, Gelrite, Benzyl Adenine (BA), Indole Butyric Acid (IBA), Coumarin, Putrescine, Gibberellic acid (GA₃), Indole Acetic Acid (IAA) has been widely used for callus induction, root regeneration and imposing plant regeneration in various species of bamboo such as Bambusa spp. and Dendrocalamus spp. Different combinations of growth regulators and phytohormones have been used for regenerating some of the major bamboo species. Natural hardening materials such as cocopeat, vermicompost, perlite, cow dung, farmyard manure, compost, soil, garden soil, and humus soil have been recommended for the acclimatization and adaptation of bamboo species. Standard combinations of growth regulators and hardening mixtures have imposed tissue culture, acclimatization, and adaptation in major bamboo species. Conclusions: Bamboo contributes to soil fertility improvement and stabilization of the environment. Bamboo species are also involved in managing the biogeochemical cycle and have immense potential for carbon sequestration and human use. This paper aims to review the various growth regulators, natural mixtures, and defined media involved in regenerating major bamboo species through in vitro propagation. In addition, the ecological benefits of safeguarding the environment are also briefly discussed.

The factors influencing somatic embryo maturation, high frequency somatic embryo germination, and plantlet formation were studied in Terminalia chebula Retz. Maturation of somatic embryo were influenced by a number of factors such as in vitro culture passage, concentrations of sucrose, levels of abscisic acid (ABA), basal media and media additive combinations. Maximum frequency of somatic embryo maturation ($57.22{\pm}2.02$), was obtained on MS medium supplemented with 50 g/l sucrose. Different factors such as strengths of MS nutrients, plant growth regulators, media additives and their combinations controlling somatic embryo germination and plantlet formation were studied. High frequency of germination and plantlet formation ($58.80{\pm}1.47$) were achieved by subsequent subculture of mature somatic embryos on MS medium containing 30 g/l sucrose and 0.5 mg/l benzyl-adenine (BA). However, although duration of in vitro passage of the callus tissue was critical, contribution of the combinations of plant growth regulators and media additives showed nugatory effect on somatic embryo maturation and germination as evident from variable responses.

The study was conducted to determine the optimal basal media and the concentration of plant growth regulator for germination of seeds and growth of plantlet from Dendrobium monile. The results obtained were summarized as follows. Germination was similar in light and dark condition, but the growth of plantlet after germination was better under dark than under light condition in several media. Germination was best in Hyponex and Kyoto solution medium among the 9 media tested. The number of roots/shoot was most in the Hyponex medium containing 0,1ppm NAA and 1.Oppm BA.

This experiment was conducted at Andong county cropping season to investigate rice response and consequent changes in the physiological activities and agronomic characters of rice as affected by growth regulator treatments, and to determine how low temperature controls some plant growth mechanisms. Plant growth regulators, particularly ABA, applied to 15 DAT regardless of concentration, gave higher tar plant height and tiller number after 10days of low temperature treatment than did the untreated plant. However, the differences in plant height and tiller number among treatments diminished to plant growth. Chlorophyll content seemed to be enhanced by growth regulators under low temperature condition. The 10-day treatment of low temperature decreased chlorophyll content by more than 17% compared with the untreated control. The oxidizing activity of roots decreased sharply to 52.2a after 10 days in low temperature condition. On the other hand, ABA at concentration of $10^{-4}M$, highly attains oxiding activity of roots. Generally, plant growth regulators applied at 15 DAT under low temperature reduced grain yield more than did the untreated control which can be attributed to decreased yield components. When growth regulators were applied to booting stage, the tiller number did not show significant difference, whereas the significant difference in culm length at harvest was observed in all treatment as a result of different concentration of growth regulators. The growth regulators generally exhibited a significant effect on yield component except on panicle length. Grain yield of low temperature treated plot at booting stage was significantly influenced by application of growth regulators. This was due to decreased number of spikelet and low filled spikelet percentage. However, TIBA treatment at booting stage showed no significant differences in grain yield.

An efficient method for the rapid micropropagation of Camptotheca acuminata from axillary buds was established by application of various plant growth regulators. Among various cytokinins, $0.5mg\;L^{-1}$ BA showed the best performance on shoot multiplication, number average multiple shoots up to 10.8. The propagated shoot cuttings in vitro were elongated on NN basal medium without plant growth regulators. The secondary multiple shoots were induced at the site of initially induced buds. Rooting was induced directly near the base of the shoot on half-strength NN medium containing $0.5mg\;L^{-1}$ of IBA, whereas high concentration of $1.0mgL^{-1}$ IBA could induce callus at the base of the shoot. The camptothecin content, anticancer compound of the micropropagated plants was contained in various tissues. Camptothecin contents were 1.8 and $2.5mg\;g^{-1}$ dry weight in stems from propagated in vitro and mother plant, respectively. This result may be used to develop strategies for large-scale propagation of elite C. acuminata trees.

Ginseng root explants and calli were cultured on modified Murashine and Skoog's media supplemented with different concentrations of organic or inorganic compounds and plant growth requlators to clarify the effects of chemical compositon and plant growth regulators in the medium on the growth of ginseng calli and the production of ginseng saponin. For optimum growth of ginseng calli, the concentrations of 2, 4-D and sucrose were in the range of 1 to 5 mg/l and 1 to 3%, respectively. And it was clarified that sucrose, nitrogen, phosphate, calcium, magnesium, plant growth regulators and their concentrations influcenced the relative biosynthesis of saponin in tissue cultures of Panax ginseng.

Ginseng root explants and calli induced from selected cell lines were cultured on modified Murashige and Skoog's media supplemented with different concentrations of organic or inorganic compounds and plant growth requlators to clarify the effects of chemical composition and plant growth regulators in the medium on the growth of ginseng calli and the production of ginseng saponin. For optimum growth of calli, the concentrations of 2, 4-D and sucrose were the range of 1 to 3 mg/${\ell}$l and 1 to $3\%,$ respectively. And it was clarified that sucrose, nitrogen, phosphate, calcium, magmesian plant growth regulators and their concentrations influcenced the relative biosynthesis of saponin in tissue cultures of Panax ginseng. The patterns of ginsenosides, pharmacologically useful component, were different among the cell lines and contents of ginsenosides were much higher in selected cell lines than in original cell line.

This study was carried out to establish in vitro propagation system influenced by plant growth regulators through organogenesis with three different seed sources (China, Mongolia and Russia) for conservation of genetic resources in Northeast Asia. The experiment compared two different carbon sources (commercial sugar, sucrose), which showed no significant differences in germination rate. Induced adventitious buds from leaf segments were found to be highly effective when supplemented with 1.0 mg/L BA, 1.0 mg/L Kinetin, and 5.0 mg/L IAA, in the case of Chinese origin 96.8%, Russian origin R-1: 95.6%, R-2: 85.6%, and Mongolian origin M-2: 77.8%. It was effective in BA and Kinetin with supplemented with IAA, respectively. Shooting development was also efficient in Woody Plant Media (WPM) supplemented with 1.0 mg/L BA, 1.0 mg/L Kinetin and 5.0 mg/L IAA.
