“…Green leaves possess a characteristic sweet taste appreciated in soups [ 167 , 168 , 169 , 170 ]. In folk medicine, dried leaves, inflorescences and seeds (semem celosiae) of C. argentea are used as disinfectant and ailments for eyes (to improve eyesight) and the liver, in the treatment of dysentery, dysuria, blood and gynaecologic diseases, hypertension, sarcoptidosis, among other disorders [ 167 , 171 , 172 , 173 , 174 ].…”

“…Both in vitro and in vivo pollen had similar shape, size and germination percentage; however, the formation of seeds did not occur in vitro. The plant regeneration of Celosia using in vitro methodologies was also reported [ 171 , 208 , 209 ] and in vitro plants could be obtained from diverse explants (leaf, stem, shoot tips) and callus . Higher percentage of regeneration was possible in well-defined conditions and in vitro plants produced lower mean cell areas but higher nuclear areas when compared to in vivo plants.…”

Natural pigments are largely distributed in the plant kingdom. They belong to diverse groups, with distinct biochemical pathways. Betalains with colours that range from yellow to red-violet can de divided into two main subgroups: betaxanthins and betacyanins. These types of pigments are confined into 13 families of the order Caryophyllales and in some genera of higher fungi (Amanita muscaria, Hygrocybe and Hygrophorus). The Amaranthaceae family includes diverse genera in which betalains are present: Alternanthera, Amaranthus, Beta, Chenopodium, Celosia and Gomphrena. The biosynthesis of betalains and their general biological properties were reviwed in the present work. In addition, the types of betalains present in some species of the aforementioned genera, their stability and production, as well as biological attributes, were reviewed.

The present study describes the plant propagation via indirect organogenesis from in vitro derived leaf and internode explants of Plectranthus bourneae, an endemic plant to south India. Leaf and internodal explants successfully callused on Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) supplemented with different concentrations of auxins [2,4-D (2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid), NAA (α-naphthalene acetic acid), IAA (indole-3 acetic acid), IBA (indole-3-butyric acid) and PIC (Picloram); 0.1-2.0 mg/l] in combination with BA (6-benzyladenine) (0.5 mg/l). Maximum callus induction (98 %) was achieved from leaf explant followed by internodal explant (89 %) at 1.0 mg/l NAA, 0.5 mg/l BA. Leaf derived callus showed better shoot regeneration (29.71 shoots) on MS medium containing 1.0 mg/l KN (kinetin), 0.7 mg/l NAA, and 50 mg/l CH (casein hydrolysate) followed by internodal callus (19.71). A maximum of 19.14 roots/shoot was observed at 1.0 mg/l IBA. The rooted plantlets were successfully hardened and transferred to greenhouse condition with 80 % survival. This system could be utilized for large-scale multiplication of P. bourneae by tissue culture.

“…However, the GA3 sources presented statistical difference, being the analytical degree superior to fermented extract (Table 2). Micropropagation has been employed to enhance the mass production, quality, and sterilized condition of the targeted plant [29] . Nevertheless, a great yield in biomass is desired when the aim of the work is to produce primary or secondary metabolites; moreover, micropropagated plants with larger biomass can promote higher survival rates during the acclimatization.…”

Nidularium procerum and Nidularium innocentii (Bromeliaceae) were cultivated in vitro on media supplemented with different sources and levels of GA3 (gibberellic acid). These sources were the commercial powder (analytical degree) and fermented extract obtained by Fusarium moniliforme via solid state fermentation. The in vitro elongation and rooting of these plants were evaluated after 50 days of cultivation. The GA3 present in the fermented extract possess the same effect of purified GA3 (analytical degree) for the increase of the height of aerial part of shoots of N. innocentii, but not for the N. procerum being the GA3 fermented extract in a lesser degree. The GA3 fermented extract influences negatively the rooting in N. innocentii, while GA3 analytical degree practically does not interfere in the rooting. On the other hand, in N. procerum, both the GA3 sources reduce the root number and do not interfere in rooting percentage. GA3 crude fermented extract is an alternative to reduce costs, however, its results can vary depending on the species and parameter evaluated. The fermented extract was stored at temperature during 260 days and its shelf life presented a suitable stability, maintaining 92% of its initial GA3 amount.
