Indirect organogenesis through seedling-derived leaf segments
The aim of this study is to introduce the suitable protocol for indirect regeneration from seedling-derived leaf segment of Ficus religiosa. The leaf explant successfully produced callus on MS medium containing various concentrations of auxin in combination with BAP
Stigmasterol production from Abutilon indicum cell suspension cultures
Abutilon indicum, a therapeutically valuable shrub can act as a continuous source of stigmasterol, accredited with pharmacological significance. In this study, the content of stigmasterol when analyzed in both in vivo and in vitro plants was found to be 13.89 ± 1.43 and 20.50 ± 2.34 μg/gFW, respectively.
The aeroponic plant root environment has a significant role in producing high-quality seed tuber potatoes. This study showed the method used to maintain the aeroponics root chamber temperature conditions. An air conditioning system was adopted to supply air with the optimal temperature range for mini-tuber potato seed cultivation. The vapor compression refrigeration type was applied in the air conditioning system. The root chamber temperature is controlled and monitored using
Exploitation of Cannabis sativa L. Roots Grown under Aeroponics Cultivation
Cannabis sativa L. has been used for a long time to obtain food, fiber, and as a medicinal and psychoactive plant. Today, the nutraceutical potential of C. sativa is being increasingly reappraised; In this study quantified the presence of valuable bioactives (namely, β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, campesterol, friedelin, and epi-friedelanol) in the root extracts of C. sativa, a finding which might pave the way to the exploitation of the therapeutic
