Direct regeneration and morpho-histological study of de novo shoot development from leaf explants of Rhododendron mucronulatum Turcz.
Yulianna Zaytseva
Abstract:Rhododendron mucronulatum Turcz., a rare medicinal and ornamental deciduous multi-branched shrub native to northern parts of East Asia, is a valuable genetic resource for breeding and biotechnological producing bioactive metabolites. To create propagation system of R. mucronulatum, an efficient method of direct shoot regeneration from leaf explants based on thidiazuron (TDZ) and dark treatment was developed, and detailed histological analysis for revealing localization of cell competent to morphogenesis was ca… Show more
