Zingiber officinale buds from the rhizomes were used to produce in vitro shoots. These explants produced the largest number of multiple shoots, 9.8 shoots per explant, when were cultured on MS (Murashige and Skoog 1962) medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L benzyladenine (BA) and 2.0 mg/L indole butyric acid (IBA). This medium was also found to be suitable for in vitro propagation of other Zingiberaceae species: Alpinia conchigera, Alpinia galanga, Curcuma domestica, C. zedoaria and Kaempferia galanga. Both C. domestica and C. zedoaria produced more multiple shoots when were cultured in the liquid proliferation medium, MS medium containing 2.0 mg/L BA and 2.0 mg/L IBA. To maintain the in vitro plantlets of Zingiberaceae species, they were required to subculture every four weeks. After executing proper acclimatization protocol, in vitro plantlets of Alpinia galanga, A. conchigera, Curcuma domestica, C. zedoaria, Kaempferia galanga and Zingiber officinale could be successfully planted in the field with high percentage of survival.

Multiple shoot induction and plant regeneration using apical bud and nodal explants of 100 year old tree of Anthocephalus cadamba, an important sacred and medicinal tree in India was achieved for the first time. Aseptic explants cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium augmented with different concentrations of BAP (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 and 10 mg/l), when maintained for 60 days, healthy shoots were induced in presence of BAP (1 mg/l). Lower concentrations of BAP (0.1 - 0.5 mg/l) induced only one shoot per explant. Increase in number of shoots per explant was observed in presence of higher concentrations of BAP (2.5, 5.0 and 10 mg/l). However, elongation of shoots was completely inhibited. Bud break and shoot regeneration was largely associated with seasonal factors. Apical buds cultured during June to August exhibited early bud break within two weeks of initial culture. In rest of the months, bud break and shoot regeneration was very slow irrespective of the various concentrations of BAP used in the medium. Explants sourced from three different maturity levels of shoots indicated that actively growing shoots from the mother plant with 1 - 2 nodal segments was more suitable for culture initiation than the explants collected from mature shoots at dormant stage. Regenerated shoots with 2 - 3 pairs of leaves when transferred to half strength MS medium fortified with IBA (1 mg/l), 60% of the shoots induced healthy roots, indicating the possibility of large scale micropropagation.

The roots of Aristolochia elegans Mast.(Aristolochiaceae) are widely used in Mexican traditional medicine as a remedy for scorpion venom. Current experimental evidence supports its purported antidote properties. However, collection from the wilderness has lead to local extinction of natural populations. In order to contribute to species preservation, cultivation, and standardization of morphological and pharmacological properties, a micropropagation method was developed. This includes in-vitro germination of seeds to produce aseptic plantlets, induction of multiple budding, and acclimatization. The treatment with benzylamino purine(10 ${\mu}M$) induced the highest number of buds(3.1 on average) in both types of explants. On the other hand, indolebutyric acid(1.5 ${\mu}M$) caused the highest root index(11.8) per explant. One hundred percent of the micropropagated plantlets developed vigorously after the acclimatization process.

Allium hookeri L. (Alliaceae family) is an important ethnomedicinal plant native to the Himalayan region of Asia. The aim of this research was to establish a high-frequency plant regeneration system for in vitro propagation of A. hookeri. Among the tissue types examined, receptacle explants derived from immature flower buds showed the highest regeneration rate of shoots ($93.33{\pm}4.63%$), roots ($76.67{\pm}7.85%$), and calli ($80.00{\pm}7.43%$) when cultured on Gamborg B5 (B5) medium containing $10{\mu}M$ 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) + $1{\mu}M$ naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), $0.5{\mu}M$ BA + $5{\mu}M$ NAA, and $1{\mu}M$ BA + $10{\mu}M$ NAA, respectively. Shoot multiplication was superior when cultured in liquid rather than on solid medium and relatively high concentrations of BA, ranging from 5 to $10{\mu}M$. Efficient bulblet formation following root induction from shoot clumps was achieved with culture in liquid B5 medium containing 7% (w/v) sucrose. Regenerated bulblets were successfully acclimatized to ex vitro conditions with a greater than 95% survival rate. By this method, a maximum of 62 plantlets per receptacle could be propagated within 9 weeks of initial culture. The in vitro propagation system established in this study will promote A. hookeri biotechnology, including large-scale production of healthy and aseptic clones, preserving parental genotypes with desirable traits, and genetic manipulation to enhance medicinal value.

Simple, reproducible, high frequency, improved plant regeneration protocol in Eastern Cottonwood (Populus deltoides) clones, WIMCO199 and L34, has been reported. Initially, aseptic cultures established from axillary buds of nodal segments from mature plus trees on MS liquid medium supplemented with $0.25mg\;1^{-1}$ KIN and $0.25mg\;1^{-1}$ IAA. Nodal and internodal segments were found to be extra-prolific over shoot apices during course of aseptic culture establishment, while $0.25mg\;1^{-1}$ KIN concentration played a stimulatory role in high frequency plant regeneration. Diverse explants, such as various leaf segments, internodes, and roots from in vitro raised cultures, were employed. Direct plant regeneration was at high frequency of 92% in internodes, 88% in leaf segments, and 43% in root segments. This led to the formation of multiple shoot clusters on established culture media with rapid proliferation rates. Many-fold enhanced shoot elongation and growth of the clusters could be achieved on liquid MS medium supplemented with borosilicate glass beads, which offer physical support for proliferating shoots leading to faster growth in comparison to semi-solid agar or direct liquid medium. SEM examination of initial cultures confirmed direct plant regeneration events without intervening calli. In vitro regenerated plants induced roots on half-strength MS medium with $0.15mg\;1^{-1}$ IAA. Rooted 5- to 6-week-old in vitro regenerated plants were transferred into a transgenic greenhouse in pots containing 1:1 mixture of vermicompost and soil at $27{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for hardening and acclimatization. 14- to 15-week-old well-established hardened plants were transplanted to the field and grown to maturity. The mature in vitro raised poplar trees exhibited a high survival rate of 85%; 4-year-old healthy trees attained an average height of 8 m and an average trunk diameter of 25 cm and have performed well under field conditions. The regeneration protocol presented here will be very useful for undertaking genetic manipulation, providing a value addition to Eastern Cottonwood propagation in future.

아배양을 통한 물박달나무 성숙목의 기내증식은 DKW 배지에서 양호하였다. 이 배지는 다른 두 배지보다 줄기증식 및 줄기생장이 양호하여 물박달나무의 적정 배지로 생각되었다. DKW 배지에서 액아배양과 정아배양에는 큰 차이는 없었으나 증식에는 액아배양이, 생장에는 정아배양이 다소 양호하였다. 한편 1/2 MS 배지에서는 절편기부에 callus가 직경 1.0cm이상 지나치게 형성되어 줄기신장을 억제하였고, WPM에서는 줄기형태는 정상이나 생장이 저조하여 물박달나무의 아배양 배지로는 부적당하였다. 발근은 NAA 처리가 IBA 보다 효과적이었다. l/2 DKW 배지에 1.0 mg/L NAA 처리로 80%의 기내발근 되었으며 유도된 뿌리수도 많았다 얻어진 줄기는 직접 기외삽목도 가능하였는데, 이 같은 결과는 물박달나무 성숙목의 효율적인 기내번식이 가능함을 시사한다.

본 연구는 털깃털이끼(Hypnum plumaeforme Wilson)의 조직배양시 무성아와 배우체 유기에 미치는 IAA와 kinetin의 영향을 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다. 배양재료는 멸균한 배우체의 정단을 Knop 배지(1865)의 다량요소와 Nitsch와 Nitsch배지 (1956)의 미량요소를 첨가한 고체배지에 배양하여 획득하였다. 배양 초기에는 배양한 배우체의 정단으로부터 원사체가 형성되었으며, 배양 4주에는 새로운 배우체로 전환되었다. 무균의 배우체를 다져서 IAA와 kinetin을 각 0.01, 0.1, 1, $10{\mu}M$의 농도로 단용첨가한 동일배지에 배양한 결과 배우체로부터 원사체 무성아는 물론 이차 원사체도 형성되었다. 그러나 IAA와 kinetin의 농도에 따라 원사체 형성 및 눈 유기가 달라지는 경향을 보였는데, 낮은농도의 IAA와 kinetin을 첨가하는 경우 무성아 형성과 눈의 유기가 촉진되는 경향을 보였다. 특히 kinetin $0.01{\mu}M$을 첨가한 배지에서 눈과 원사체 형성율이 가장 높았다. 배우체의 형성을 위하여kinetin $0.01{\mu}M$을 첨가한 배지에서 형성된 모든 배양재료를 다시 IAA와 kinetin이 0.01, 0.1, 1, $10{\mu}M$씩 단용첨가된 배지에 계대배양하였다. 계대배양한 후 이차 원사체로부터 원사체와 캘러스가 형성되는 과정을 거쳐, 마침내 배우체가 유기되었다. IAA는 배우체 유기와 생장을 조절하였고, kinetin은 무성아 형성과 배우체 유기에 영향을 미쳤다. 본 연구의 결과 조직배양시 첨가한 생장조절물질은 털깃털이끼의 발달과정 전반에 중대한 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다.
