Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is a widely cultivated and economically important
vegetable crop in many countries but is susceptible to many pests and diseases. The …

The frequency of obtained androgenic plants depends highly on the genotype; therefore the
low rate of haploid recovery limits the utility of anther culture in pepper breeding. The need …

Micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MECC) was developed for the separation
of cytokinins including trans-zeatin, trans-zeatin-O-glucoside, dihydrozeatin, dihydrozeatin-O …

Here, we describe a new protocol for the induction of direct somatic embryogenesis of
Agave fourcroydes through thin cell layer (TCL) culture technology. The protocol was …

Multiple shoots were induced by culturing nodal explants excised from 1-month-old aseptic
seedlings of red pepper (Capsicum annuum L. cv. Pusa Jwala) on Murashige and Skoog …

Leaf explants of squash (Cucurbita pepo L.) and melon (Cucumis melo L.) were pretreated
initially with 113.1, 226.2 or 452.4 µ M 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D), 46.5, 93 or …

This article describes the performance of nodal segments from Habanero pepper
(Capsicum. chinense) during shoot induction and elongation under different semisolid and …

Adventitious organogenetic structures were produced in vitro using cotyledon explants
excised from 14 day-old pepper seedlings. The best response was observed on MS medium …
