Abstract-A deeper understanding of the influence of culture media and different germplasm is crucial to propagate the plants in vitro conditions. To focus this, two tuberous plant species; Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) and Purple potato (Solanum tuberosum) were selected. In the present study, stem segments from two species selected as explant source were cultured on Murashige and Skoog's media containing various concentrations (0.2 and 0.5

Vurali turcica is naturally grown in a limited area in Central Anatolia in Turkey and was categorized as a critically endangered plant in the Red Data Book of Turkish Plants. This study aimed to analyze whether the symbiotic and mutualistic relation between V. turcica rhizomes and present microfl ora in the habitat can be active on its distribution. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) colonize the rhizosphere and promote plant growth and physiology. In this paper, the diversity of PGPRs of rhizomes of V. turcica was analyzed. Rhizome samples were obtained from the natural habitats of V. turcica by the workers of Nezahat Gökyiğit Botanical Garden, and bacterial isolation was conducted on the collected samples. MIS analysis, 16S rRNA, and 16S-23S rRNA ITS region sequencing were implemented, and as a result, Bacillus megaterium was found to be one of the most abundant bacterial species of the rhizomes of V. turcica based on nucleotide homology. This study is the first report on the identification of rhizobacterial species in V. turcica.

This plant tissue study of micropropagation identifies the selective medium saving for rapid propagation in cultivated Thermopsis turcica, an endangered germplasm of the family Fabaceae. The aim is to obtain the optimum growth medium of T. turcica by enabling the in vitro propagation of this endemic. In this study, the leaves and stems of T. turcica were cultured on a Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with various concentrations (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg L −1 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid) of auxin and (0.2 and 0.5 mg L −1 Zeatin) (1.0 and 2.0 mg L −1 Benzylaminopurine) of cytokinins. Previous research focused on the regeneration from the seed of T. turcica Eber population; we concentrated upon the regeneration of different plant parts (leaf and stem) of T. turcica Aksehir population. In addition, according to the literature on T. turcica that to date the effects of Zeatin on the regeneration has not been performed. The most promising regeneration and growth were obtained from leaf explants cultured on the media with 2.0 mg L −1 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid and 0.5 mg L −1 Zeatin (93.3%). The regenerated plantles were rooted on the media containing 2.0 mg L −1 Indole-3-butyric acid. Rooted plantlets were transplanted into potting of sterilized soil. The present study reports on the sufficient in vitro regeneration protocol through organogenesis in T. turcica. The findings presented here have implications for in vitro protection and use of this endemic endangered species in further biotechnological research.
