“…According to our results, a concentration of 0.45 mM of TDZ induced the highest normal shoot production per explant (25.8), while causing a low average of hyperhydrated shoots (0.78) and the highest explant survival rate (90.3%) ( Table 1). These results are superior to those reported in previous studies of other species of Beaucarnea: for B. recurvata, there are some studies that reported the formation of 6 to 11 shoots per explant using different concentration of BA (Bettaieb et al, 2008;Osorio-Rosales and Mata-Rosas, 2005;Reyes et al, 2013;Sajeva et al, 1994;Samyn, 1997); for B. gracilis, Osorio-Rosales and Mata-Rosas (2005) and Reyes et al (2013) achieved the induction of 8.2 and 9.4 shoots per explant, respectively; regarding B goldmanii, 3.9 shoots per explant were obtained (Reyes et al, 2013); and for B. inermis, 15.7 shoot per explant were induced (Guill en et al, 2015). Moreover, the effect of the addition of different concentrations of TDZ in this process had not been previously studied for any of the Beaucarnea species.…”

“…Shoot formation occurred via direct organogenesis from longitudinal sections of B. purpusii seedlings cultured with different concentrations of cytokinins. Similar responses have been described for B. recurvata (Bettaieb et al, 2008;Osorio-Rosales and Mata-Rosas, 2005;Reyes et al, 2013;Sajeva et al, 1994;Samyn, 1997), B. gracilis (Osorio-Rosales and Mata-Rosas, 2005; Reyes et al, 2013), Beaucarnea goldmanii (Reyes et al, 2013), and B. inermis (Guill en et al, 2015).…”

“…These kinds of shoots proved nonviable and eventually caused the loss of entire explants through browning. However, this response has not been reported in other studies of different Beaucarnea species (Bettaieb et al, 2008;Osorio-Rosales and Mata-Rosas, 2005;Samyn, 1997). Hyperhydration has been linked to the species, the genetics of the donor plants, the endogenous and exogenous levels of PGRs, and the type and concentration of gelling agents (Cassells and Curry, 2001;Kevers et al, 2004;Scholten and Pierik, 1998).…”

“…In spite of the botanical and ornamental interest in Beaucarnea species, studies concerning their in vitro propagation are scarce. There are some reports for Beaucarnea recurvata (Bettaieb et al, 2008;Osorio-Rosales and Mata-Rosas, 2005;Reyes et al, 2013;Sajeva et al, 1994;Samyn, 1997), Beaucarnea gracilis (Osorio-Rosales and Mata-Rosas, 2005), and Beaucarnea inermis (Guill en et al, 2015), but to the best of our knowledge, there are no reports on in vitro propagation of B. purpusii.…”

The present study establishes an efficient protocol for in vitro propagation from longitudinal sections of seedlings of Beaucarnea purpusii, a threatened and highly appreciated ornamental species. The effect of three cytokinins: N6-benzyladenine (BA), kinetin (Kin), and thidiazuron, 1-phenyl-3-(1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-yl)urea (TDZ), in semisolid media and three different concentrations, as well as the effect of BA and TDZ pulses at higher concentrations in liquid culture medium, were investigated. Adventitious shoot formation by direct organogenesis was observed from all treatments. Additionally, adventitious shoot formation was recorded from the leaves of the new shoots; this particular response was exclusive to treatments supplemented with TDZ. In the experiment using semisolid culture media, the highest means of shoots per explant were obtained from treatments containing TDZ, particularly at a concentration of 0.45 μm (25.8 shoots per explant). For the pulses experiment, the liquid culture media supplemented with TDZ at 22.35 µm for 24 hours and 136.21 µm for 96 hours, induced a mean of 3.9 and 3.3 shoots per explant, respectively. Subculturing individual shoots on MS and half-strength MS (1/2MS) media, both supplemented with activated charcoal at 1 g·L−1, induced rooting in 85% to 95% of shoots. A survival rate of 100% under greenhouse conditions was achieved. The results of this study provide an efficient alternative for mass propagation of B. purpusii and may also contribute to the conservation and sustainable use of this valuable natural resource.

Ponytail palm (Beaucarnea recurvet Lem.; Family Asparagaceae) is one of the most important plants in the internal and external coordination. This work was carried out to study the effect of media type (MS, B5 and WPM) and Benzylaminopurine BAP at 0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 mg/l during multiplication stage. The shoot tips were collected from in vitro seedlings cultured on MS medium without growth regulators. B5 medium supplemented with 0.4 mg/l (BAP) increased number of shoots (3.40 shoots/clump) and number of leaves (24) plant compared with other treatments. The B5 medium is preferable within mass production and featured commercial. The BAP Concentration 0.4 mg/l promotes shoots initiation and development with B5 medium more than MS and WPM.

Experiments were conducted to establish an efficient protocol of micropropagation of Beaucarnea gracilis and B. recurvata two endemic and endangered Mexican species. Multiple shoots were induced by direct organogenesis from in vitro seedlings and longitudinal sections of seedlings in both species. The highest formation of shoots per explant, both B. gracilis and B. recurvata, was obtained from longitudinal sections of seedlings on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 22.2 μm 6-benzylaminopurine, induced 8.2 and 11.1 shoots per explant respectively. In vitro rooting was readily achieved on MS medium with 1 g/l activated charcoal without growth regulators. According to initial treatment and depending on where the shoots come from, the rooting rates were 61% to 100% for B. gracilis, and 83% to 100% for B. recurvata. Survival rates in greenhouse conditions for both species were 80% to 100% after 3 months. These results indicate that the micropropagation of these species of Beaucarnea is technically feasible, and that in vitro culture is a useful option for the conservation and propagation of these important endangered species.
