Optimizing callus induction and indirect organogenesis in non-dormant corm explants of Gloriosa superba (L.) via media priming

Frontiers in Horticulture, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 3

Published: March 18, 2024

Introduction Gloriosa superba L. is an endangered ornamental plant of significant medicinal, commercial, and cultural value. This study establishes efficient protocol for rapid in vitro propagation this species through callus-mediated organogenesis using non-dormant corm explants. Methods Plant tissue culture techniques were employed to facilitate the regeneration process encompassed various stages, including acquisition material, surface sterilization, formulation growth media, execution callogenesis, shooting, rooting, acclimatization experiments. Results Discussion Investigation into impact regulators on callogenesis unveiled diverse callus morphologies, dependent regulator type concentration, with NAA KN combination emerging as most effective induction. Specifically, induction medium supplemented 1.5 mg L −1 NAA, 0.5 KN, 10 casein hydrolysate (CH) achieved remarkable results, boasting 81.25% rate a substantial biomass fresh weight 333 mg. Furthermore, BAP facilitated optimal shoot primordia shooting derived from The medium, enriched 2.0 BAP, 5 CH, 20% (v/v) coconut water (CW), resulted impressive 83.33% formation average 6.86 per callus. For root induction, 1.0 IBA displayed high robust rooting (+++). Successful plantlets controlled environments shade net houses culminated thriving growth, upon transplantation garden soil blend (garden : sand vermiculite, 2:1:1, v/v), direct sunlight exposure, demonstrated commendable development form, 69% survival at seven-week mark. These findings offer foundation scalable sustainable strategies, ensuring conservation utilization valuable species.

Preserving earth’s flora in the 21st century: climate, biodiversity, and global change factors since the mid-1940s

Frontiers in Conservation Science, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 5

Published: Sept. 27, 2024

Climate change and biodiversity conservation are two of the most urgent challenges twenty-first century. Current global climate models indicate that climate-related events will continue to increase in frequency intensity, leading severe impacts on ecosystems, particularly plant diversity. Despite 2015 Paris Agreement, efforts limit warming 1.5 degrees Celsius secure adequate financing remain unsatisfactory. In addition, National Biodiversity Strategic Action Plans (NBSAPs), a core mechanism Convention Biological Diversity (CBD), have faced issues implementation at national level. Many NBSAPs lack clear measurable targets, which limits their effectiveness. This review presents comprehensive analysis these issues, highlighting significant deficiencies current policies. It evaluates effectiveness Kew strategy as model for protecting conserving Furthermore, this underscores pivotal role tissue culture (PTC) technology achieving targets within post-2020 framework. strongly supports framework integration PTC into strategies meet ambitious 30-by-30 targets. also advocates establishment Kew-Wide Mechanism (KWM) bolster resilience, reduce anthropogenic diversity, revitalize efforts, accelerate ecosystem restoration face ongoing change. Proposed approach conservation, KWM offers strategic, innovative, scalable solution economy transitions toward decarbonization.

Insights into recent advances in secondary metabolites (SMs)-mediated defense responses in plants

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 1 - 15

Published: April 23, 2025

Climate change induces various environmental stressors that restrict plant processes, thereby limiting overall crop productivity. Plant secondary metabolites (SMs) enable plants to quickly detect a broad array of and respond in accordance rapidly changing scenarios. Notably, SMs regulate defense signaling cascades provide defensive functions safeguard against biotic abiotic stressors. In this review, we an overview insights into recent advances types biosynthetic pathways SMs. We emphasize the mechanisms different elicitors-induced synthesis accumulation responses. addition, SMs-mediated regulation processes act through phytohormones is discussed. Finally, show transcriptional factors regulating biosynthesis associated regulatory networks could be used for creating resilient plants. Overall, comprehensive review gives insight regarding crucial roles enhanced resistance provides new ideas development stress-resistant varieties under current climate
