“…The percentage response of explants forming shoot buds increased with the increase in the concentration of TDZ. Similar observations were made in Hagenia abyssinica (Feyissa et al 2005), Embellia ribes (Raghu et al 2006), and J. curcas (Kumar and Reddy 2010;Kumar et al 2010a). In the present investigation it was observed that low concentrations of TDZ induced relatively fewer shoot buds, but that these developed rapidly into shoots in subsequent culture.…”

“…Therefore, it is clear that the combined concentration of 1.0 mg/l NAA + 1.0 mg/l IBA is an ideal treatment for root induction. As we know from the previous reports that IBA was the most suitable auxin for rooting in many plant species (Parveen and Shahzad 2010, Raghu et al 2006, Shahzad et al 2007). Again IBA was found to be efficient in inducing rooting in higher altitude Himalayan plants viz., Aconitum atrox (Rawat et al 1992), Podophyllum hexandrum (Nadeem et al 2000), Cedrus deodara (Nandi et al 2002).…”

The present research work reports the cytomorphological evaluation and an efficient protocol for in vitro micropropagation of an endemic, endangered and threatened herb Centella asiatica (L.) Urban (Mandukparni) from Himachal Pradesh, India. Plant species is a potent memory enhancer, antidiabetic, antioxidant, antimutagenic, anticancerous and also reported to have cardiovascular properties and used to cure chronic hepatitis disorders. Eight morphometric characters for each 10 different accessions were extensively studied, but no new morphotype was reported. As per the cytology, the present report (2n = 18) confirmed the earlier chromosome counts from India and abroad. As there is an important need to preserve this plant species and to make it available all over the year to pharmaceutical industries without causing loss of germplasm from the wild region, efficient in vitro micropropagation protocol through nodal explant has been developed. As per the results, the highest percentage of multiple shoot induction was 90.20 showing average 16.3 number of shoots on the medium augmented with 2.0 mg/l BAP + 0.5 mg/l Kn. Whereas, the combined concentration of 1.0 mg/l NAA + 1.0 mg/l IBA showed highest 92.2% root induction with average 16.5 number of roots per shoot. The survival rate of these plantlets under green house condition was 80%. This protocol can be used for further regeneration and genetic transformation studies in Centella

“…Direct shoot regeneration from cultured leaf explants of E. ribes was reported by Raghu et al ( 2006 ). Leaf explants derived from in vitro plants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of TDZ ranging from 0.009 to 0.45 μM.…”

There has been an increase in use of traditional medicine during the last decade due to the reason that medicinal plant-derived drugs are more effective against several diseases as compared to antibiotics and other medicines and the former has less side effects on patients. Moreover, medicinal plants are a rich source of antibacterial compounds. The increased use and harvest of medicinal plants coupled with habitat destruction caused a decrease in natural population of most of the medicinal plants. In vitro conservation strategies can not only offer large number of plants in limited time but also it can decrease tension on natural populations. Similarly, several horticultural plants including vegetable crops need improvements and therefore in vitro conservation strategies could be applied for their further progress. The present review is an attempt to provide information on various in vitro conservation strategies adopted in selected medicinal and horticultural climbers. The important medicinal and horticultural climbers such as Benincasa hispida ,
