Passion fruit is an essential commercial plant in the tropics and subtropics, which has lately seen a rise in demand for high-quality fruits and large-scale production. Generally, different species of passion fruit (Passiflora sp.) are propagated by sexual reproduction. However, asexual reproduction, such as stem cuttings, grafting, or tissue culture, is also available and advantageous in many instances. Recent research on passion fruit has concentrated on improving and establishing methodologies for embryogenesis, clonal proliferation via (somatic embryos), homozygote regeneration (by anther culture), germplasm preservation (via cryopreservation), and genetic transformation. These developments have resulted in potentially new directions for asexual propagation. Even though effective embryo culture and cryogenics are now available, however the limited frequency of embryogenic callus transformation to ex-vitro seedlings still restricts the substantial clonal replication of passion fruit. Here, in this review the advancement related to biotechnological approaches and the current understanding of Passiflora tissue culture. In vitro culture, organogenesis, cryopreservation, breeding, and productivity of Passiflora will significantly improve with novel propagation approaches, which could be applied to a wider range of germplasm.

This study examined the practicality and sustainability of growing leafy vegetables in aquaponics instead of traditional soil-based farming systems by comparing the physiological growth patterns, nutritional compositions, and phytochemical constituents of Celosia argentea L., Corchorus olitorius L. and Ocimum gratissimum L. grown in aquaponics with those of other conventional systems. The results of this study indicate that the growth and accumulation of biomass by plants grown in aquaponics were similar to those obtained in unamended loamy soil but better than those of plants grown in inorganic hydroponics. However, plants grown in NPK-supplemented soil showed significantly (p<0.05) higher biomass accumulation than those grown in aquaponics. Likewise, C. argentea, C. olitorius, and O. gratissimum grown in aquaponics had significantly higher nutrient compositions than those grown in inorganic medium, and at the same time, similar to that of plants grown in unamended loamy soil. C. argentea and C. olitorius grown in inorganic medium had significantly higher concentrations of the observed phytochemicals than those grown in aquaponics, whereas the opposite was true for O. gratissimum. The three plant species were able to serve as filters for the effective maintenance of nitrogen dynamics in the constructed African catfish aquaponics, while utilizing nitrogenous waste for biomass production.

In vitro culture has become a dependable approach for the mass production of plant material as the market for innovative plant-derived medicinal approaches has grown significantly. Furthermore, because it permits manipulation of biosynthetic routes to boost the production and accumulation of certain compounds, this technology has enormous potential for the manufacture of natural bioactive chemicals. As a result, the goal of this study was to develop an efficient micropropagation system for biomass production and to investigate the accumulation of bioactive compounds from Vaccinium corymbosum L., Duke and Hortblue Petite cultivars. Two in vitro plant tissue culture systems were used for shoots production: a solid medium (5 g/L Plant agar) and liquid medium (Plantform bioreactor). The culture medium used was Woddy Plant Medium (WPM) supplemented with two growth regulators: 0.5 mg/L and 1 mg/L zeatina (Z) and 5 mg/L N6-(2-Isopentenyl) adenine (2iP). The content of phenolic compounds, carotenoids, and chlorophylls of the in vitro shoot extracts were examined via the HPLC-DAD-MS/MS technique. The results showed that cv. Hortblue Petite produced a higher amount of biomass compared with cv. Duke, on all variants of culture media in both systems (solid and liquid), while the shoots extract of the Duke variety in the liquid culture system (under all concentrations of growth regulators) had the highest content of total phenolic compounds (16,665.61 ± 424.93 μg/g). In the case of the lipophilic compounds analysed (chlorophylls and carotenoids), the solid medium reported the highest values, whereas media supplemented with 0.5 mg/L Z was proved to have the richest total content for both cultivars.
