Breeding techniques for this botanical family can be slow, troublesome and very lengthy employing the classic approach (Hunault et al, 1989).

“…Microscopic observation of the root structure showed a lack of secondary structures and showing epidermis tissue with only a row of cells along with relatively thick cuticle and for stem and leaf structure with stomata without any hairs. Parenchyma cells contained 2-3 rows of irregular oblong cells with little thick Discussion Improvement of Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) plants under the traditional breeding procedure is generally slow, laborious and time consuming (Hunault et al, 1989). Additionally, efforts to improve cumin have been constrained by the unavailability of genetic diversity for some desirable traits (Tawfik and Noga, 2002).…”

Medicinal plants are the most important source of medicine. Cuminum setifolium ( Boiss.) Kos.-Pol. with common name of white cumin, a member of the Apiaceae family, growing wild on mountains was investigated as a species having capability for cultivation and crop breeding. Generally, there is not information about Cuminum setifolium species. The aim of this study was to found plant identification and distribution in Iran, phenology, best treatment for seeds germination, farm cultivation and anatomical description. Cuminum setifolium plant is a annual herb which is distributed in Iran, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tien-Shan and central Asia. In our studied region, the plant is generally grown on calcareous marl soils with climatic conditions of desert cold, semi-arid to arid having hot summer and cold winter. The effects of different treatment on seed germination showed significant highest germination percentage (54.4%), germination rate (6.4%) were obtained from seeds that had exposed for 3 weeks at 4°C after omit of seeds hairs. The experiment of cultivation showed the best time for sowing in Mashhad was autumn and growing time was from middle of March until end of June and ripening seeds were end of June at 2005. Microscopic observation of the root structure showed lacking secondary structures and having epidermis tissue with only a row of cells along with relatively thick cuticle and for stem and leaf structure with stomata without any hairs. Parenchyma cells contained 2-3 rows of irregular oblong cells. Stomata type of epidermis was diacytic and distance between stomata was measured 5 μm in average.

“…In fact, the oil yield of several cell suspension cultures varied from 0.001% -0.01% (Ishikura 1989;Ernst 1989;Hunault et al 1989;Berger et al 1990;Cotton et al 1991). Likewise, the yield of the oil obtained from our cultures was rather low (0.001%), also when compared to that obtained from the plant (0.2%) (Figueiredo et al 1992a, b).…”

The composition of the essential oil isolated from Achillea millefolium L. ssp. millefolium cell suspension cultures was analysed by GC and GC-MS. The yield of the oil obtained by hydrodistillation or a simultaneous distillation -extraction of these cultures, harvested at days 8 -10 (end of exponential phase), was 0.001% (w/w). The analysis of the volatiles showed the presence of thirteen components; monoterpenes amounted to 5%, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons attained 40%, while eugenol, demethoxyencecalin and two unidentified compounds amounted to 45% of the total oil. Several methods were tested in an attempt to increase the essential oil production by the cultures: growth on solid medium, growth in light, use of a different culture medium, elicitation with cellulase or yeast extract, and growth in a two-phase system. Of the different methods tested, the growth in B5 + medium with Miglyol 812 led to the highest essential oil yield (0.002%, w/w), and resulted in a more diverse oil composition.

“…The medicinal benefit of fennel is mainly because of essential oils and aromatic compounds which are produced in secretary canals present in all organs of this tree. Among various studied aromatic and volatile compounds, anethole is the main alkaloid and the primary component of its volatile oil (Hnnanlt et al, 1989). Obtaining medicinally important compounds from the wild or cultivated plants is limited due to difficulties in cultivating under field conditions, risk of extinction due to over exploiting plant from natural habits and geopolitical limitation (Verpoorte et al, 2002).…”

This study was conducted to access the effects of seven Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains i.e. A4, T4, MSU, TCC15834, 2656, Gm1 and R1000, on the hairy root generation from various explants i.e. hypocotyl, cotyledon, root, stem and leaf of Fennel ecotypes (Bonab, Izmir, Esfahan and Moghan). Results of study revealed that induction of hairy root varies with the A. rhizogenes strains and used explants. Among the various tested combinations, highest root induction was recorded form hypocotyl explants using A4 and TCC 15834 (70 and 67%, respectively) strains of A. rhizogenes. Response of explant toward hairy root induction and number of the hairy roots per explant was different and decreased from hypocotyl, leaf and cotyledonary explants, respectively. Among the various tested A. rhizogenes strain, TCC 15834 capable to induced hairy Roots development in all ecotypes but most effectively in Izmir (36.66 ± 0.57) and it was followed by Bonab (32 ± 0.44), Esfahan (30 ± 0.99) and Moghan (16.66 ± 0.79). All transformed hairy root were successfully confirmed by PCR using rolB primers. Further hairy root induction could be proved as an alternative approach for the production of secondary metabolites and its increasing use as model system in metabolic engineering.
