“…Shoot multiplication was very slow and it was not easily observable on clumps (Figure 1c). Our results on TDZ activity on cell differentiation and morphology are in line with those of Sumlu et al (2010). The authors suggested that the effect of thidiazuron on growth is greater in the dark than under light conditions.…”

IntroductionAquatic plants are important living organisms in water environments that maintain oxygen levels, organic matter, and the feeding and breeding environments of other aquatic organisms (Cirik et al., 2011). The efficiency of any water body is determined by the amount of aquatic plants it contains as they are the primary and secondary producers of the ecosystem (Oyedeji and Abowei, 2012). Currently aquatic plants are gaining more popularity in traditional aquariums and water gardens (Maki and Galatowitsch, 2004). In the United States, water gardens are found in more than 16 million houses (http://www.ridnis.ucdavis.edu/ docs/hcrossonartcle..pdf). In European countries, aquatic plants are more popular and are imported from abroad for their ornamental and bioindicator features (Karatas et al., 2013). The aquarium industry is growing rapidly worldwide, including in Turkey, and most of the materials, especially plants, are imported from East Asia. The annual import bill of the aquarium industry approached 137.1 million euro in 2011 (http://www.eurofish.dk/images/ stories/files/Turkey/Cesme/3-HA.pdf).Aquatic plants are also used for phytoremediation because they have the ability to absorb heavy metals from polluted water bodies (Rai, 2009;Singh et al., 2012). They are also used to biomonitor (monitoring pollution) the aquatic environment (Zurayk et al., 2001). However, the use of aquatic plants for phytoremediation or as bioindicators in water bodies is confined by their limited availability.Hemianthus callitrichoides 'Cuba' , family Scrophulariaceae, is an ornamental aquatic plant and a native of the area east of Havana, Cuba. It is commonly known as "dwarf baby tears" or "HC" and was described in the literature for the first time in 2003 as a small rocky plant (Othman et al., 2014). H. callitrichoides has become an increasingly popular and attractive foreground plant of choice. This delicate, cushion-forming plant is best used between rocks or as a carpeting plant in aquariums. It is also well known for being used as decoration and an oxygen-producing plant in fish aquariums. It blooms white tiny flowers under favorable conditions, but the flowers are extremely small and easy to overlook. It is generally moderately to slow

In this study, an efficient system to break seed dormancy and plant regeneration was established for perennial vulneraria milkvetch (Astragalus vulnerariae DC.). The seed coat dormancy could be easily released using 40% sulphuric acid treatment for 15 minutes, which made the seed coat permeable without damaging zygotic embryos. The tissue culture studies reported regeneration on 5 explants, which had variable effects on shoot regeneration, using MS medium containing variable concentrations of Kin-NAA and BAP-NAA. Maximum shoot regeneration of 86.67% with 4.47 shoots per explant was noted on MS medium containing 0.5 mg•l-1 Kin-0.5 mg•l-1 NAA on hypocotyl explants. No shoot regeneration was noted on cotyledon leaf and shoot nodes using MS medium containing any concentration of BAP-NAA. Maximum shoot regeneration of 50% with 3 shoots per explant was also observed on 1 mg•l-1 BAP-0.5 mg•l-1 NAA on epicotyl explants. MS medium containing Kin-NAA induced hypocotyl explant shoots had rooting percentage of 36.67% on 0.5 mg•l-1 IBA, whereas, MS medium containing BAP-NAA induced hypocotyl shoots had rooting percentage of 46.67%. The in vitro cultured plants had an acclimatization rate of 78%. Aesthetically attractive, economical, easy to maintain and water efficient vulneraria milkvetch is currently not available in landscaping. The system of plant regeneration and adaptation suggested by this paper may help to dissipate it to a broad range of water scarce environments as a sustainable and inexpensive choice.

The study was aimed to trace out antihyperglycemic potentials of Nymphaea alba leaves using in vitro and in vivo approaches. In, in vitro study, determination of IC50 of Nymphaea alba extracts was done using α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibition assay. In α-amylase, Nymphaea alba methanol extract (NAME) exhibited maximum inhibition 56.77±1.23% at 125µg/ml in comparison to 66.7±0.94 % of standard acarbose. In α-glucosidase, NAME exhibits 59.89±0.92, while standard acarbose showed 70.31±1.25 % inhibition. The in vivo study was performed on diabetic rats, made diabetic by Streptozotocin. 200mg/kg and 400mg/kg NAME was administered orally, which significantly (
