The experiment was conducted on in vitro regeneration of tomato at the Plant Biotechnology Laboratory, Department of Horticulture, Patuakhali Science and Technology University, Patuakhali. The objective was to develop an efficient regeneration protocol in tomato through callus induction for subsequent plantlet regeneration. Seeds were inoculated on MS medium where germination rate was 78.4%. The stems of in vitrocultured seedlings were used as explants. Different concentrations and combinations of growth regulators were added to MS medium to observe their efficacy on callus induction, shoot initiation and root formation. Stem explants cultured on MS medium fortified with 2 mg/L BAPgave the highest number of shoots (3.0) at 45 DAC. Among the concentrations of PGRs, 0.25 mg/L IAA produced the highest length (4.064 cm) of plantlets, number (5.0) of leaves and fresh weight (0.663 g) of plantlets with the stem explants at 45 DAC. The concentration of 0.5 mg/L IAA produced the highest number (21.00) of roots/plantlet, length (7.676 cm) of roots at 45 DAC, from the same explants. The highest survival rate of in vitro regenerated plantlets in the pot was 70.00 % with the stem explants. The results of the current study showed significant increase in the growth of callus of Solanumlycopersicon Mill. Indicating a good efficiency of the optimized media composition and the experimental model used in comparison to other studies of similar nature.Asian J. Med. Biol. Res. December 2015, 1(3): 589-599

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of explant source and hormone concentrations on the callogenesis, calli growth, plantlet regeneration and rooting of a local tomato variety (Lycopersicon esculentum mill. variety 'Thilina'). Different combinations of Benzyl Adenine (BAP) and 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) were used with hypocotyl, leaf and root explants in a completely randomized design with five replicates to evaluate the success in plantlet regeneration. Regenerated healthy shoots sub cultured in to MS medium with various concentrations of Indole-3-butric acid (IBA) for rooting. After one month the weight of fresh callus, number of regenerated shoots and roots were evaluated. Anova (DMRT) test shows there were significant effects at p<0.05 level. Combination of BAP (0.1mgl-1) with 2.4-D (2.0mgl-1) and hypocotyl explant produced the best quality fresh callus in highest weight. The best hormonal combination for shoot regeneration (4 shoots/explant) was 0.1mgl-1 NAA and 0.5mgl-1 Kinetin from callus. Maximum direct regeneration was observed on MS medium containing 0.5mgl-1 Kinetin, 2.0mgl-1 BAP, 0.1mgl-1 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 100mgl-1 my-inositol within 15-20 days (4 shoots/explant). Leaf bud revealed to be better explants for direct regeneration. Highest root number per plantlet was observed with 2.0mgl-1 IBA.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
