“…Micropropagation studies in Passiflora started in 1966 (Nakayama, 1966) from the culture of nodal segments of an important ornamental species, P. caerulea. Since then, a growing number of studies describing in vitro techniques applied to the genus have been published for commercial and wild species with ornamental and phamaceutic propreties (Drew, 1997;Otoni et al, 2013;Ozarowski and Thiem, 2013;Rathod et al, 2014;Pacheco et al, 2016;Rocha et al, 2018;Vieira et al, 2018).…”

“…These flowers are found in the most diverse forms, sizes, and colors and have a distinguished scent (Montero et al, 2013). In the view of the recognized economic importance of the wild and commercial passion fruit species several tissue culture and biotechnological techniques have been applied to the genus (Silva et al, 2009;Otoni et al, 2013;Ozarowski and Thiem 2013;Pacheco et al, 2016;Carvalho et al, 2017;Faria et al, 2018). The present review proposes to summarize the results achieved thus far in the biotechnology of wild Passiflora species with ornamental potential.…”

The ornamental flower sector has growing over the past years worldwide with potential for further expansion. Among the ornamental plants, Passiflora species have been gaining ground in the market, mainly in European and North American countries. However, the market aiming the use of these species in ornamentation is still poorly explored. The inclusion of passion flower in the list of ornamental plants is related to the peculiar characteristics of the flower as it is complex structure, capacity of flowering all year long and also by the abundance and exuberance of the leaves, which in many species adds an ornamental value. Among the biotechnological tools for the production of ornamental plants, tissue culture has been outstanding in the cloning of elite genotypes, with high phytosanitary quality and large scale production. In addition, it offers possibilities of producing new varieties with characteristics peculiar to the market of ornamental plants. The diversity of wild Passiflora opens perspectives to the conservation, market and production of ornamental Passiflora cultivars.

“…In recent years, attention has been paid to the biological activity of phytochemically defined extracts from different species of Passiflora which can be obtained not only from natural habitats of South America (mainly Colombia and Brazil), but also from controlled greenhouse cultivation in various countries or using biotechnological methods such as micropropagation in sterile and monitored in vitro laboratory conditions [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43].…”

“…Various species of Passiflora are among of the most trusted herbal medicines. In Europe, Passiflora incarnata L. is the most popular plant, included in the European Pharmacopoeia for the treatment of anxiety, insomnia, nervousness as sedatives [36,44]. However, beside of antioxidative study, there is a progress in discovery of molecular mechanism of action for chemical compounds occurring in extracts from Passiflora sp.…”

Summary Introduction:. It is well documented that many species from Passifloraceae family can provide edible and nutritious fruits while the leaves of cultivated plants are renewable and waste material. This biomass may be further used in various sectors, especially as a bioactive food additive and as source of innovative pharmaceuticals, cosmetics or feed additives. The biomaterials and green chemistry are new sectors bioeconomy according to the high-level horizontal strategies and bio-based industries in Europe. In recent years, attention has been paid to the biological activity and phytochemical profiles of extracts from different species of Passiflora. However, there is little comparative studies using the same procedures and techniques in the same laboratory conditions for study of plant material obtained from the similar greenhouse conditions. Objective: This study was focused on the examination of antioxidative activities of low concentrations of crude extracts from leaves of Passiflora incarnata L., Passiflora caerulea L., and Passiflora alata Curtis. Methods: The activity was evaluated using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2’-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) methods. Results of study were supported by estimation of chemical composition with secondary metabolites profiling in extracts which were carried out previously for the same extracts from three Passiflora species. One-way ANOVA analysis revealed significant differences in the antioxidant activity of various concentrations of the extracts using the DPPH and ABTS radical models, and FRAP method. Results: Measurement of antioxidant capacity (expressed as trolox equivalent, TE) showed that the most active was extract of P. caerulea > P. alata > P. incarnata. Phytochemical analysis for extracts of P. caerulea and P. incarnata showed greater similarities in metabolites content than P. alata. However, comparative statistical analysis of antioxidant activity showed that despite this phytochemical similarities, extract from P. alata leaves had higher activities than extract from leaves P. incarnata. Antioxidant effect of extract from P. alata can be explain by terpenoids presented in this extract. In this work, there have been discussed activities against Acanthamoeba castellanii strain, antibacterial and antifungal activities against selected clinical microorganisms (Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans, Micro-sporum gypseum), and anti-leukemic activities tested in human acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell lines for this extracts, which have been described in previous authors’ publications. Conclusion: Our current and previous studies showed that the same crude extracts from leaves of P. alata, P. caerulea, P. incarnata exerted not only antioxidant potential in vitro but also few interesting properties such as antibacterial, antifungal, amoebostatic, amoebicidal activities, which indicate the possibility of using these extracts in both a healthy diet and natural cosmetics. Leaves of this species may become an interesting source of biomaterials which can exert health-promoting effects.

“…Mientras que la organogénesis in vitro en pasifloras se ha abordado en diferentes investigaciones (Ozarowski & Thiem 2013) la capacidad embriogénica de estas especies ha sido menos estudiada; Anthony et al (1999) indujeron embriogénesis en suspensiones celulares de Passiflora gibertii N.E. Br, a partir de explantes foliares y Reis et al (2007) reportaron embriogénesis indirecta a partir de líneas transformadas de raíz de Passiflora cincinnata Mast.…”

La importancia económica, ecológica y medicinal de las pasifloras ha fomentado el desarrollo de investigaciones multidisciplinarias en estas plantas. En cultivo in vitro, la embriogénesis no zigótica representa una alternativa para regeneración de plantas; no obstante, esta técnica ha presentado dificultades en la reproducibilidad de los protocolos, así como formación de ciertos embriones y plántulas anormales en algunas especies. En este estudio se evaluó la capacidad morfogénica de embriones zigóticos maduros (EZM) de Passiflora maliformis L para desarrollar embriones no zigóticos (ENZ), y posterior regeneración de plántulas. Se ensayó una etapa de inducción en la que se probaron 12 tratamientos en medio MS+VitB5 suplementado con 2,4-D, KIN y BA adicionados solos o combinados y, otra, de expresión en MS, MS con Carbón activado (CA) o MS con reguladores de crecimiento (RC) en concentraciones reducidas a 1/10 parte de las adicionadas en la etapa inducción. Altos porcentajes, 70%, de regenerantes fueron obtenidos en el medio suplementado con 1 mgL-1 BA y transferidos a medio de expresión MS, así como en el medio con 1 mgL-1 BA + 3 mgL-1 2,4-D, y transferidos a medio de expresión con CA, 60%. El 70% de las plántulas regeneradas se desarrollaron exitosamente en invernadero. Este trabajo es el primero que aborda la expresión del potencial embriogénico de EZM de P. maliformis induciendo exitosamente respuestas embriogénicas no zigóticas a través de rutas directas e indirectas; los resultados obtenidos son aplicables al conocimiento de la embriogénesis no zigótica en otras pasifloras, con fines de mejoramiento y uso comercial.
