Carbon dioxide stimulates tuberization of isolated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) stolons cultured in vitro. The stimulatory effect is inhibited by C(2)H(4) which is by itself also inhibitory of tuberization. Furthermore, C(2)H(4) inhibits kinetin-induced tuber initiation. Both the formation and
Routine cryopreservation of shoot tips from sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam] has been hampered by their survival variability after cryogenic exposure. We examined the effects of light conditions on stock plants, sucrose preculture and cryoprotectant loading on survival after vitrification
The potential of somatic embryogenesis was evaluated for 10 cultivars of sweet potato through extensive embryogenic response and isozyme analysis. Embryogenic callus was induced by incubating lateral buds on Murashige and Skoog medium containing 10 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid for 6-8 weeks.
Lateral buds of six cultivars of sweet potato were induced to form embryogenic callus in a culture medium solidified with two types of gelling agents, Agar or Gelrite, and supplemented with various concentrations of auxins, 2,4-D, 2,4,5-T and Picloram. Of the six cultivars screened, only three gave
Investigation of polyphenol production in cut-injured sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam. cv. Kokei 14) roots by histochemical and quantitative methods showed that polyphenols were produced in striking amounts in the proximal side of the tissue pieces (2 cm thick), but only in small amounts in cells
A membrane fraction enriched with plasmalemma vesicles was isolated from potato tubers using the polyethylene glycol 3550--dextran T-500 phase partitioning. As judged by the activities of enzyme markers of the inner plant cell membranes, the fraction consisted of plasmalemma vesicles with tonoplast
In the present study, for callus production leaf and stem segments of potato cultivar White Desiree were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2,4-D, NAA and Kinetin (callus production medium). Calli then were transferred in the same liquid medium for cell suspension production. In the next step
Ethylene inhibited the tuberization of etiolated potato (Solanum tuberosum L. var. Red La Soda) sprout sections cultured in vitro. Carbon dioxide did not overcome the C(2)H(4) inhibition but it was required for normal tuberization. Ethylene totally prevented root formation and development. It
The physiological age of mother tubers (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Kennebec) used as a source of material influenced kinetin-induced in vitro tuberisation. Tuberisation significantly increased with physiological age. Kinetin- or ancymidol-induced tuberisation, plantlet and microtuber dry weight
Solanum melongena L. commonly known as the eggplant or brinjal comes from the family of Solanaceae, sharing the same ancestor with the tomato and potato. It is an economically important crop worldwide, being well studied for its medicinal properties, nutritional values and its role as an alternative
The aim of the study was to assess the potential in vitro effects of jasmonic acid and kinetin on tuberization of potato (Solanum tuberosum). Of the two, the former was by far the stronger in vitro promoter of stolon tuberization. Number of tubers induced per stolon, tuberization rate, and final

Ectopic auxin overproduction in transgenic potato leads to enhanced productivity accompanied with concerted and occasional changes in hormonal status, and causing altered response of transformants to exogenous auxin or cytokinin. Previously, we generated potato transformants expressing
It has been demonstrated that the surface lipophilicity of the plant-parasitic nematode Globodera rostochiensis decreases when infective larvae are exposed to the phytohormones indole-3-acetic acid (auxin) or kinetin (cytokinin). In the present study, it was shown that inhibition of phospholipase C
We present efficient protocols for the regeneration of fertile plants from corm explants of Hypoxis hemerocallidea Fisch. and C. A. Mey. landrace Gaza, either by direct multiple shoot formation or via shoot organogenesis from corm-derived calluses. The regeneration efficiency depended on plant
