Seed germination of pitaya (Hylocereus spp.) as affected by seed extraction method, storage, germination conditions, germination assessment approach and water potential
(2019)
To breed and preserve pitaya (Hylocereus spp.) genetic resources, reliable information on seed storage and germination conditions is needed. Therefore, this study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of the following ...
In vitro propagation of bamboo species through axillary shoot proliferation: a review
(2017)
Bamboos, very relevant plants in many countries around the world, are propagated at large scale with extreme difficulties. Use of seeds is challenging because of plant’s sporadic flowering and long flowering cycles, together ...
Deposition Form and Bioaccessibility of Keto-carotenoids from Mamey Sapote (Pouteria sapota), Red Bell Pepper (Capsicum annuum), and Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) Filet
(2016-02-18)
The ultrastructure and carotenoid-bearing structures of mamey sapote (Pouteria sapota) chromoplasts were
elucidated using light and transmission electron microscopy and compared to carotenoid deposition forms in red bell ...
Carotenoids, carotenoid esters, and anthocyanins of yellow-, orange-, and red-peeled cashew apples (Anacardium occidentale L.)
(2016-06-01)
Pigment profiles of yellow-, orange-, and red-peeled cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) apples were investigated. Among 15 identified carotenoids and carotenoid esters, b-carotene, and b-cryptoxanthin palmitate were the ...
Occurrence and characterisation of calcium oxalate crystals in stems and fruits of Hylocereus costaricensis and Selenicereus megalanthus (Cactaceae: Hylocereeae)
(2016-10)
Detailed description about occurrence of calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals in the edible vine cactus species Hylocereus costaricensis and Selenicereus megalanthus is scarce. Therefore, we evaluated and characterized the ...
Regeneración in vitro mediante embriogénesis somática de variedades de cítricos. I. Obtención de callo friable y suspensiones celulares de naranja dulce (Citrus sinensis) y naranja agria (Citrus aurantium) cultivadas en Costa Rica
(1995-03-31)
In vitro plant regeneration of citrus through somatic embryogenesis. I. Establishment of friable calli and suspension cultures of local cultivars of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) and sour orange (Citrus aurantium). Friable ...
Participation of plant hormones in determination and progression of somatic embryogenesis
(2005-11)
In vitro culture protocols have been developed for many species, mainly using empirical approaches, to induce somatic embryogenesis from various explant types. However, the underlying biochemical mechanisms governing ...
Hormonal status of maize initial explants and of the embryogenic and non-embryogenic callus cultures derived from them as related to morphogenesis in vitro
(2001)
Endogenous hormone levels (indole-3-acetic acid [IAA], abscisic acid [ABA], gibberellins 1, 3 and 20 [GAs], zeatin/zeatin riboside [Z/ZR] and N6[Δ2-isopentenyl] adenine/N6[Δ2-isopentenyl] adenosine; [iP/iPA]) were analysed ...
Endogenous hormone concentrations and embryogenic callus development in wheat
(2001-10)
Immature zygotic embryos of two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes, known for their different ability to generate embryogenic callus, were used as initial explants to establish callus cultures. Embryogenic and ...
