Micropropagation of apple has played an important role in the production of healthy, disease-
free plants and in the rapid multiplication of scions and rootstocks with desirable traits …

Genetic improvements in plant breeding are dependent upon having access to novel plant
genetic resources that are available in plant genebanks. Many crops that are vegetatively …

Since the discovery of topolins as naturally occurring aromatic cytokinins (CKs), they have
emerged as genuine alternatives to the long serving CKs such as benzyladenine, zeatin and …

The organogenic potential and antioxidant potential (1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl-
scavenging activity) of the medicinal plant Piper nigrum L.(black pepper) were investigated …

Main conclusion Studies on the tissue culture of apple have allowed for molecular,
biotechnological and applied breeding research to advance. In the past 8 years, over 100 …

Abstract Meta-topolin (m T), a benzyladenine analog [N 6-(3-hydroxybenzylamino) purine] is
a highly active cytokinin. The present study evaluates the efficiency of two aromatic …

Key message Cryopreservation provides valuable genes for further breeding of elite
cultivars, and cryotherapy improves the production of virus-free plants in Malus spp., thus …

Abstract Background Wild apple, Malus sieversii, is an endangered species and a valuable
genetic resource that requires a variety of conservation techniques. This study aimed to …

In vitro plant regeneration is a pivotal process in genetic engineering to obtain large
numbers of transgenic, cisgenic and gene edited plants in the frame of functional gene or …

Plant grafting is an important horticulture technique used to produce a new plant after joining
rootstock and scion. This is one of the most used techniques by horticulturists to enhance the …
