  • Cotyledon of Panax ginseng was cultured in the growth regulator-free Knudson C medium comprising only several kinds of mineral salts and sucrose. Shoot primordium or callus developed profusely from the cotyledonary tissue and finally plantlets were produced directly from the shoot primordium or indirectly through callus. Microscopic examination revealed that the epidermal cell as well as the mesophyll cell of the cotyledon became meristematic and divided, changing into multinucleate cell or multicellular body, eventually developing into either a shoot primordium or callus.

  • In this study, the construction process of a two-panel space station and its control problem are discussed. The appliability of direct model reference adaptive control technique with plant augmentation is investigated. Regulator control problem with high initial transient has been simulated Result show that high rate of convergence has been observed for all the simulation.

  • Plant regeneration depending on explant type was inves-tigated with cotyledon, hypocotyl, and leaf explants of garland chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.) cultured on MS basal medium supplemented with various concentrations of SAP and NAA combination. Among the three different types of explants, hypocotyl explants grown on MS medium containing $1.0{\mu}M\;NAA,\;1.0{\mu}M\;BA\;and\;6{\mu}M\;AgNO_3$ produced the highest adventitious shoots (4.67 per explant). Hypocotyl explants not only produced more vigorous shoots, which regenerated aster than the cotyledon and leaf explants. An efficient root formation was observed in MS medium containing $3\%$sucrose. The concentration of NAA did not show significant effects on root formation. Results from this experiment suggested that hypocotyl explants were efficient for the regeneration of garland chrysanthemum.

  • The fungal genus Cercospora is one of the most ubiquitous groups of plant pathogenic fungi, and gray leaf spot caused by C. zeae-maydis is one of the most widespread and damaging foliar diseases of maize in the world. While light has been implicated as a critical environmental regulator of pathogenesis in C. zeae-maydis, the relationship between light and the development of disease is not fully understood. Recent discoveries have provided new insights into how light influences pathogenesis and morphogenesis in C. zeae-maydis, particularly at the molecular level. This review is focused on integrating old and new information to provide an updated perspective of how light influences pathogenesis, and provides a working model to explain some of the underlying molecular mechanisms. Ultimately, a thorough molecular-level understanding of how light regulates pathogenesis will augment efforts to manage gray leaf spot by improving host resistance and disease management strategies.

  • Degradation of chlorophyll (Chl) by Chl catabolic enzymes (CCEs) causes the loss of green color that typically occurs during senescence of leaves. In addition to CCEs, STAYGREEN1 (SGR1) functions as a key regulator of Chl degradation. Although sgr1 mutants in many plant species exhibit a staygreen phenotype, the biochemical function of the SGR1 protein remains elusive. Many recent studies have examined the physiological and molecular roles of SGR1 and its homologs (SGR2 and SGR-LIKE) in Chl metabolism, finding that these proteins have different roles in different species. In this review, we summarize the recent studies on SGR and discuss the most likely functions of SGR homologs.

  • One of the most attractive short-term possibilities for increasing freezing tolerance of winter crops may be the application of chemicals. This research was conducted to determine the effect of two plant growth regulators. Terpal-C and Cerone on freezing tolerance and winter survival of canola. Three cultivars were planted on the michigan state University Agronimy Farm at East Lansing. MI. on Sept. 10. 1992 and 1993 Chemicals were applied to one-month-old plants when they reached the 5 leaf stage. Ion leakage tests for freezing tolerance were conducted before and after chemical treatment. Winter survival was evaluated by counting the plant standing in the fall and spring. Neither of the chemicals. Terpal-C. inhibited natural cold hardening.
